Very nice way to force yourself to learn the swift.

A bit off topic: this page is completely robust, the design is responsive and it works on every browser. And yet it has been build on 1999 :)

Elm tutorial walks you through simple "mario bross" game. It is quite fun. http://elm-lang.org/examples/mario

I am no Rasberry expect, so I need to ask: Is it possible to connect Rassbery Zero to some network in some convenient way?

I just asked if this is a common way to do this, but apparently all the iOS devs felt offended - I will not comment on this.

Thanks for the answer anyway :)

Is it really the way to debug your iOS apps, add some features instead of tests?

Am I missing something, or these updates are just estimates? I could see any periodical http requests, long running call or web sockets open.

1:52 actually, sorry I was mistaken.

2:21 in the video you can see a link to: corp.google.com

I love their UI for single sign on.

I know it's not in HN nature, but I absolutely loved the fact one of the top comments on youtube is: "FU YEA TECHNOLOGY!". It actually means that people outside tech environment appreciate course of events that is happening in the tech industry.

Well, you should not outsource project - you should outsource people. Have a mix of inhouse developers who will cooperate with contractors. Force them to attend scrums, make them a remote part of the team. The difference is - you can use them for a period of time when you need them and then release the resources when they are no longer needed (fire them).

Well, curl -X POST http:/click.it/pay_me sounds easier than fueling a car.

Difference between oil and software is that you can easily quantify oil (1 barrel) whereas it is tremendously hard to quantify the value of software product.

I really dig the Riak test. One of the best comparison of LWW and CRDT. Also very good conclusion, tl; dr: If you don't use idempotent writes, you are going to have bad time.

In short term trading your profit/loss will be probably random. Saying that some day trades make money is like saying that some people might flip a coin and hit heads 20 times in a row. For a big enough group of people it will happen. Unless you are high frequency trader - then you make money every single day.

Well, you could summarise this article by saying: "Just because something got invented 25 years ago it doesn't mean it is useless". On the contrary - it is worth taking a look on technology that survived 25 years in the wildness.

I would love to, but I live on the other side of the "pond" :)

Because it used to be "free". People don't value that much their private data nor ads-free web. I always say to my friends that "if the product is free, then you are the product". They understand that fact, they just don't care - and why would they?

I would pay .02$ for displaying a news page (it's is still 4 times more than what advertisers give to publishers) and probably everyone would - but disrupting trillion ad business is not that easy.

from: http://old.ycombinator.com/ideas.html " 12. Fix advertising. Advertising could be made much better if it tried to please its audience, instead of treating them like victims who deserve x amount of abuse in return for whatever free site they're getting. It doesn't work anyway; audiences learn to tune out boring ads, no matter how loud they shout.

What we have now is basically print and TV advertising translated to the web. The right answer will probably look very different. It might not even seem like advertising, by current standards. So the way to approach this problem is probably to start over from scratch: to think what the goal of advertising is, and ask how to do that using the new ingredients technology gives us. Probably the new answers exist already, in some early form that will only later be recognized as the replacement for traditional advertising "

The problem is that advertising business started abusing users too much and we just have enough.

I would rather say, that the fear of the unknown is playing major part. Any maybe too much sci-fi movies.

Actually I found comprehensive answer here if anyone is interested: http://www.space.com/13639-alien-life-methane-habitable-zone...

I am not good at chemistry, but liquid methane–ethane wouldn't fit the profile?

I know that without water life would have never begun, but I still don't fully understand why it is necessary. It is still big discovery though, if life is that common I think we should be more careful during migration there, "Marsian" common cold could wipe out the entire human colony.

Release notes are not that important, the fact that this post remains on the top of HM is the best sign that elixir is finally hitting of.

I was going to comment "accidentally" but first google result says: Accidently vs. Accidentally? Dang you english.

I've seen that feature before, when I was adding email to spam. Google would then ask If I want unsubscribe from given list.

Same here, can't log in.

This device is one these things that are not missing in your life until you realise that they exist.

I tried to use it once. It looked promising, but i remember I had some problems with testing migrations.
