Shane, you build a slicer in three days? Good lord.

Hats off to you, sir!

Wes! This is awesome!

Have had the same issue on my PS4. It's mildly annoying when searching for something new, and kinda nice when you're getting back into something you were watching yesterday.

I wish it was selective about autoplay, for certain conditions. Chances are, I don't want it to play when I've never watched a second of any episodes in my life, but it's nice that it autoplays when I click it from "Continue Watching" section.

Just curious: are you saying this because the article states that they have thin profit margins, or because you know how they perform in the market?

This looks and sounds incredibly cool, but I have no real idea what it does.

Could someone with domain knowledge give me a bit of a high level explanation?

I have inferred that it's something you use while shooting footage to capture how light is present in the room at all of the different possible angles. Is this then used to be able to generate new scenes that VR headsets can walk around and interact with? Or is this more for being able to add computer generated images into the room and light it properly?

Nope, just that the preview is for Plex Pass subscribers. They usually roll things out at previews for the premium people first.

> Will it be available to everyone? The new app is launching as an early preview version for our Plex Pass subscribers. Once the preview period ends, it will be available to all users; we’ll make another announcement when that happens.

I enjoy how efficient Chrome has become as a result of uBlock, but it has a couple niggling issues. The most prominent of which is that embedded videos on a page (like those made on Reddit comment threads via RES) will display the ads, and there's nothing I can really do about it.

Still spiffy fast, at least.

I've been aware of Jekyll, but I never gave it any serious consideration. Maybe I should go ahead and do that now.

Thanks!

Very familiar with WP Engine! However, my question was more around what other platforms can I set up on the hosted space I already have, rather than paying for someone else to host my WordPress blog.

Thanks though!

Honest question: for the rest of us who can't write our own blogging platforms but are able to roll out our own hosting for a blog, which one would you recommend?

At this point, I come in late and leave early without feeling any shame at all. I bang out the work I need to and get going.

Any office or managers who feel the need to make note of when I enter and exit is a great red flag for the rest of the organization. Just a personal observation!

I'm curious as well.

My first guess was that the explosions are coming from the projectile punching through those walls they put up, or the speed of a projectile superheating the air through which it's travelling to the point of igniting the air around it.

The latter guess seems way off base, but I'd love to learn exactly why!

Looks like Autoblog Canada bit the dust too, just a redirect to their main Autoblog page.

Interesting, is there a full list of what's been affected, or did I just miss it in TFA?

Personal guess, as I never have either, but I'd hazard a guess that they show up for a lot of recipes, fashion, and interior decoration queries.

I'd be interested in picking one up so I can print little pictures of my niece (and future nieces and nephews) on the fly for their enjoyment, but Dec 2015 is just a bit further away than I'd like.

Happy to pick one up when they're out for realsies though, hope you reach your funding goal!

Cool, I should pick up one of those. Been doing it by feel for the most part.

I guess the difference is that I enjoy eating out, but I much prefer cooking at home. Even with my $10 frying pan, I can cook some delicious things, but I assume the target market is for people who haven't been cooking as much as I do.

From the viewpoint that this pan makes cooking a little more accessible to new cooks, I think it's fantastic. I was just trying to find value for someone like myself, who might be a little more experienced and have a few dishes, we can make without recipes, under our belts. :)

You're measuring the surface temp of the skillet right? (Just clarifying.)

Oh, I agree, I just mean the previous pans I've used. My daily pan that I share with my roommate was $15 and is already warping and starting to become more difficult to clean.

My next pan will be in the $40-50 range (started scoping them out) but that's still 4-5x less than a Pantelligent pan.

I'm constantly cooking, and temperature is a constant worry. However, "affordable" may be a bit misleading, if $169 is the discounted version, I assume this will be under $200 at retail.

I can pick up a durable frying pan for $15 at most, and it does the job with my skill level.

What would the real draw for me be? Exact temperature readings are great, and interactive recipes are cool, but I'm not sure it's worth 10x more than I can get a regular frying pan. (Hope I didn't come off as snarky, I'm genuinely curious.)

Oh boy, TWG on HN! ;) Great job with this Peter, playing around with it a bit more, but I'm intrigued.

A bit of a misleading headline - they're exploring subscription models as additional monetization, not about getting rid of ads altogether.

Gotcha, thanks!

Curious, as I'm quite the noob: why would an attacker install an IRC bot onto a vulnerable system?

Are they able to send the system commands via IRC? Or is it for a less nefarious reason?

To play devil's advocate: I consciously know this, and absolutely do my best to remembering that my perception is warped.

But the better part of my effort goes towards keeping that self-pessimism in check, simply because I naturally compare myself. I've found it better just avoiding a lot of those perception warpers, or remembering that I live my life at my own pace and as long as I stick to what I want to do, I'm better off than most.

When it comes to Android fragmentation, at least personally, I believe it has more to do with hardware specs than screen resolution.

I remember at my old job, we had an issue with a game being shipped because a handful of phones wouldn't be able to get past the first screen after hitting play. IIRC the issue was around the processor (or something hardware related) not having the ability to render certain things from Unity. It affected about 5 phones, but the published deemed it big enough to not be shippable.

Good to know, thanks!

Sadly, it might be outside of my price range. It does look like it's the perfect thing for tracking my workouts, but damn is that one hell of an investment.

Nevermind, my own question got answered by looking up the Garmin Forerunner 910XT: http://sites.garmin.com/forerunner910xt/

Run, swim, AND bike. Excellent.

Do they have watches, sub 250, that can be used for swimming OR running?

Even just the swimming would be great, cause the price point and being forced to carry an iPhone around kind of defeated the purpose of buying the Apple Watch for me.

Windows user here on Chrome, worked fine.

But I'm really just using it as a countdown timer before I start up the VLC stream.
