But they showed footage "through the eyes of the wearer" and they let press have a hands on demonstration, so it's not like they can really fake anything.

I did see a tiny bit of judder in the footage that was supposed to be exactly what the person wearing the glasses would see, but it was hard to tell.

I also decided to use ReactFlux after looking around at the flux implementations. It kind of suffers from the fact no one knows about it but it feels a lot better to use than the other implementations I looked at. I forked the library to support nested objects in the store state and I'm pretty happy with it now.

But I may switch to Marty since I'm not far along with the project and the dev tools look super helpful.

>extracting many thousands of dollars of free work from unemployed job seekers I didn't get the impression that they provided any value to the person hiring them. To me it just seems like they got some interesting, hopefully fun training in APL over a couple weeks. If I was unemployed and had the spare time (Like I was a couple months ago) that sounds like something I would have loved to do.

So variables are explicitly declared, don't have issues of mis typing a variable name and accidentally declaring a new one.

Note: This is just my thinking, I don't know if it's the actual reason

I use React.Backbone for this. Very easy to use, makes sure the components rerender whenever the model or collection they are bound to changes.

According to Wikipedia Functional Programming fits under the Declarative Programming paradigm. I'm not sure how accurate that is, but it seems to hold some truth.

"Functional programming, and in particular purely functional programming, attempts to minimize or eliminate side effects, and is therefore considered declarative."

"While functional languages typically do appear to specify "how", a compiler for a purely functional programming language is free to extensively rewrite the operational behavior of a function, so long as the same result is returned for the same inputs."

Maybe they updated the graph but I also got 7.41% after adding all the OSX percentages after I read that comment shortly after it was posted.

Canary is a nightly build, it's not supposed to be stable.

I can. Considering I use it on my (non touchscreen) desktop by choice and prefer it over Windows 7.

Ah, I wasn't aware it was different for submissions. My bad.

You can downvote once you've reached a certain karma level.

You can run Scala on GAE as long as you have the Scala dependencies so that shouldn't be a problem.

It's not even using 1% of my CPU. It checks one prime every 100ms, so it doesn't really use a lot of anything.

For gaming that will change with the new console releases. The Xbox One is >4x more powerful than the Xbox 360 and the PS4 is >6x. It might take a few years, but the slump in increasing processing needs will probably die off.

Frankly I think Firefox performs a lot better than Chrome for memory usage now. After a few days of having Chrome open it's usually using between 3 and 6GB of RAM (Usually Facebook is using a gigabyte so killing that tab frees up a lot) and this is with <50 tabs open. Friends who use Firefox end up with ~1GB of RAM usage in a similar timeframe.

People will still do it without understanding and then complain that Firefox broke. There is no legitimate reason your average user should have access to this checkbox. Especially when if you actually want to disable Javascript it's still very easy.

League of Legends uses a matchmaking system. You queue for a match and it automatically finds an available game for you to play. I think all the MOBA genre games use a queuing system.

I don't really see how the features they removed are incompatible with not requiring online checkins every 24h and certainly not with the used game policy. I don't see why they couldn't have made the online checkins optional, but required to do any of the game sharing, and if you don't check in within 24h it just disables games that aren't yours and doesn't let other people play yours.

Sure, that could be gotten around but people are going to figure out how to pirate anyway.

Honestly, I think that examples cool. It looks nice and it's smooth unlike a lot of parallax stuff. It's a neat to present information.

Was this Patent granted? Is that what the Publication Date specifies? I really hope not, it's very generic and poorly written.

Is there actually a way to properly debug LINQ expressions? I haven't figured out how to get Visual Studio to step through lambdas or break halfway through the chain (eg break after the filter call has completed and before reduce runs in the above example).

But I'm not sure if I'm missing some blindingly obvious.

I'm getting boxes for alt and control instead of a character. Windows 8 x64, Chrome version 29.0.1521.3 dev-m

I would hardly say the people who play Call of Duty 12h a day when a new one comes out are using their console for "casual gaming"

That is exactly what happened

“People are going to hate me for this,” Henderson told Wired in a phone interview, “but I only registered for the game earlier this morning, about an hour before I won the thing.”

Pretty sure it just defaults to Australia, since I also had Australia.

Have you tried the dev.newsblur.com interface? I'm really not fond of the normal interface but I like the dev one.

I'm not really familiar with the parts of Google Reader that weren't just viewing RSS feeds, but have you looked at NewsBlur? I believe it has an API for apps and it has some sort of social network.

Those "Tweet This" buttons littering the text are rather distracting.

If you had one billion devices you would make around 30 million per month. One billion devices is totally unfeasible though (Especially one billion on 24/7) and you could definitely make more money some other way with that many devices.
