Oh, derp, I was thinking of something else. That makes a lot more sense (that We'd trademark)

I agree, obviously. Lemme look into it.

The term Android is not trademarked. Even the bugdroid is released under a cc-attrib license. Funnily, the term 'droid' is trademarked and licensed by lucasfilm/disney mostly.

This assumes the cars are plugged in when there is the most 'extra' capacity being generated from , say, solar thermal/pv. This is when most cars are out at a workplace, not plugged in.

This is also when industrial consumption/ac use peaks, so why would you over produce and feed a battery rather than run a plant/keep places cool...

The Model S is very popular in the crescent park neighborhood of Palo Alto. There were brownouts until they upgraded the neighborhoods supply and transformers.

Just some food for thought. Most neighborhoods simply are not wired for overnight charging of a significant number of EVs. I would expect EV interconnect fees or time sensitive tierd electric consumption independent of your net metering deal.

Or hyper-local generating capacity based on natural gas...?

One of the best interviews I 'gave' was when the interview was for a position programming on a topic I knew almost nothing about. I had the person bring their laptop and walk me through their implementation of the topic at hand, then asked how they'd scale/improve it given more cpu/memory/etc and what kind of constraints the larger environment would impose upon the work.

It was super neat. Totally hired that person.

So I know you're kidding about the last, but a good nights sleep can make a huge difference to recall and memory and performance during an interview. I have interviewed tons of people and can always tell who had to fly internationally to get there..

The use of the gplv3 allows gnueral to have, as a dependency, any of the apache or permissive licensed tools like TF, torch, etc, and then through those tools 'export' their dependence on non-free components from nvidia and others.

I don't think this is wrong, per se, but it is ...funny when the fsf portrays their work as morally superior to us horrible corporate permissive license lovers, while inexorably depending on non-free components.

In an ideal world this project will be popular and will lead to someone on gnueral writing nvidia compatible drivers that will allow them to reject nvidia's, but I'm not optimistic. Not because of some incompetency on the Gnueral team, but nvidia's long history of making life very difficult for open driver writers.

AgentJayZ on YouTube is amazing for understanding everything about jet engines/power turbines. Seriously great channel.

The diaper genie is just okay. The plastic can retain smells after a while. During the diaper years my wife and I would simply take the trash out to the can twice a day or toss the soiled ones immediately to get then out of the house.

1) the wtfpl is incompatible with the cc by that the gopher is licensed under. Please replace and properly attribute renee.

2) the wtfpl is not an open source license, or a software license, at all.

Sometimes there are cash distributions before the fund closes. I've seen these after big exits, but they usually come later in the fund.

If you look at development at Google, you'll see most people on a perforce derived repo system , then groups like Android, chrome, Etc on git, then basically very few teams using Mercurial.

We do have some hg contributors like augie, but we have way more git contributors, includes git project Lead Junio.

A redirect should send the right signals to search engines to move ranking with work. We actually do a lot of work at google to help people find things even after a move. (independent of our own projects/products, esp..)

I have a secret desire to reuse the code domain in this manner.

We are planing on taking the majority of these legitimate, open source, 'abandonded' projects and putting them up in cold storage in a git repo on googlesource.com

It is a very nice system, but the stuff that goes into a shutdown had me fighting to keep the message as tight as possible. I wanted to go on about Bitbucket, gitlab, and put in a long discussion about how this doesn't effect the scalable git team at google at all (we host android and chrome and a ton of internal teams on a git backed on our backends here) , but had to keep the message pure...

But I heartily recommend people look at Gitlab...

Yeah, we've moved about a thousand projects to GH over the last few years. It's where the developers are, after all...

Basically, this. In case others didn't read the post, you'll have almost a year to take your projects off. We wanted the handful of projects that were still active to have plenty of time to migrate.

Hi everyone. I wanted to let you know (and I know this isn't a huge surprise) that we will be shutting down the Google Code project hosting system over the next year.

Wired did a nice story about Github that touches on the shutdown: http://www.wired.com/2015/03/github-conquered-google-microso...

I'll be hanging around answering questions, but the short form of 'why' is that it just isn't used much anymore, ourselves included, in favor of Github or bitbucket.

We released an Intercal style guide as part of an April fools day thing.

http://cadie.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/INTERCAL-style-guide.h...

And a small script:

I could put intercal on the resume because of this...not that I did or will, but I could...

Hey, just as a funny side note, I implemented this on this very domain back in the early 2000s. Gald to see someone else is using the domain this way :-)

By that logic, I'd say that we could look at the reddit investment as a pornography investment, too.

When we were recently shopping for a house in palo alto and los altos, we heard about and competed against Chinese nationals. I don't know how many of these all-cash offers were capital flight or how many were simply people looking to buy a house. Many of these stories came across as anti-immigration racism, but it very much wasn't limited to the ~1m market.

As a side note, the corning museum of glass is totally worth the trip. Amazing place.

Nevada and Lithium:

If the goal is to reduce the cost of production, nevada has a terrific 'local' source of lithium, which probably counted for something.

When it comes to victimizing the poor, I would look at the bh acquisition and running of rent-a-center before Coke or Candy..

Or, alternatively, be clear that this is not connected to my) Google program. Email me at cdibona@google.com and we can give you some language that other summer of code like programs use.

Then we're actually happy to even highlight your program as one that takes inspiration from us... (assuming your program is good and long lasting...)

It's interesting to juxtapose all the bitcoin articles with this kind of story..

And as a side note, Ramez' nexus and crux are decent fiction books in which augmentation takes on a serious role...
