Candidates must be able to withstand the smell of urine for a number of minutes...

Me neither! I can still remember the layout of that level where you only have two lemmings and you have to save both of them but need to use at least one as a blocker. I could never figure it out and didn't have the internet to look it up at the time! Argh!

It's an interesting contrast to OSX, which most people I know use by keeping a stack of odd-sized windows on screen such that at least a bit of each is always visible.

Sounds a lot like the X series, you should look into it.

I believe xhtml made uppercase tags invalid.

Isn't that how Steam streaming is supposed to work out of the box?

With XP this was valid, but from Windows 7 onwards you don't need to do it anymore unless you actually want to play a game - the majority of users would never need to at all.

It's a bit like that if Michael Dell was one of the original Microsoft founders and fell out with Bill Gates et al.

They do mention density in terms of kw / sqm as being slightly higher than conventional turbines, but don't give a lot of details beyond that. I can only hope it's not based on parking them all right next to each other and hoping they don't get tangled up :p

I imagine a lot of things look not all that hard when you're trying to build a rocket that can go to space, come back down and neatly land itself on a helipad...

Is anyone else finding that the Github importer just stalls at 0%?

I don't really want to have to redo the whole wiki manually :(.

It's probably the same chance of finding a bargain property in Melbourne :(.

I'm certainly blaming Yahoo. Paying browser hijackers isn't exactly the hallmark of a resurgent and reputable internet company.

5 people is a pretty crowded hookup...

Haha, it was only a matter of time (measured in weeks) until React was over. The new hotness is evidently manually setting innerHTML.

Yeah I imagine there's quite a few that'll feel that way, but at least given that using JSX requires a transform anyway it doesn't make a build _that_ much more complex than it already is.

I have a 2012 XPS 13. After a year there was only one working USB port remaining and the DVD drive was broken. I have no idea why people are gushing over Dell, every one I've had has been cheap rubbish.

Unfortunately a very small proportion of potential customers are going to hear or care about this... it's about as toxic to their business as stepping in some stinging nettles is toxic to me.

That actually works for me even though isup.me thinks it's down :/

Oh jeez, the ones in the video reminded me enough of the replicators from Stargate as it is...

The problem with this blog post is that it's long been used to justify writing crappy code, when it's actually about writing simple code, and those aren't necessarily the same thing. If your duct-tape go kart falls apart going around a corner and gives you a permanent injury you're gonna wish you spent a bit more time at the starting line wondering what to build it out of.

My initial reaction was "oh is that all". I mean don't get me wrong, the way the site works is nice, but I was really expecting it to move the code around such that the whitespace formed a picture, or have all the lines of code in random text sizes, or allow you to prioritise different sections so that some were highlighted or something like that.

As it stands it's not really something I want on my wall.

Well, if you weren't watching the talk in person you're going to have to wait for them to release React native in earnest. Fortunately the talk is only 30 minutes so you've got another 30 minutes to do something else?

Exactly - when I read that sentence I wasn't sure the author even knew what isomorphic javascript was. Pulling business logic into the front-end is admittedly a bad habit that isomorphic javascript encourages, but it's certainly not a core part of the concept.

Generally you'll have a central API used by iOS, Android, Web etc - isomorphic javascript is a way to make your web app better, not an invitation to create a monolith.

Obviously Tinder falls with Facebook, but HipChat's definitely still working for me...

That's interesting - so the named parameter for required data in routes.jsx is something you're planning to add? (I can't see it, just has the standard name/route/handler at the moment)

I've been trying to do the same sort of thing - currently I'm parsing the routes separately in koa and setting data directly on the stores before the React components load, so they're pre-populated with data. Seems a shame to do all the routing twice though.

This is the only context in which it's cool to like gc.

It's not that ridiculous when you think about it - certain breeds are worth ridiculous amounts of money - how much longer until we see genetically engineered proofs of pedigree integrated into the DNA of the cats themselves? Perhaps something to stop you from breeding more?

> What if these ladies started pushing customers elsewhere?

I imagine no-umlaut-Uber would retaliate in some kind of distasteful, barely-within-the-bounds-of-the-law way and HN would have its anti-Uber story for next week.

> The 12yr old playing the game is a red herring, they're just streaming to twitch

That was basically what I was getting at though - if the 12 year old can stream off their home broadband to twitch reliably for free, why is NASA bothering with their own, worse streaming solution?

But to their credit NASA responded very quickly, took their own streaming off and embedded ustream instead, so I guess I don't really have anything to whinge about.
