These twins also did one on Alcohol (Casual but Consistent vs Binging) which was pretty interesting: http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b05wdfhk

Because of the increase in traffic to this page I was actually put into a queue before I could view the page, how very British.

I couldn't find a youtube video of it but here's the HBO.com link http://www.hbo.com/vice/episodes/05/57-when-the-earth-melts-...

Get out of your comfort zone, the more time you spend out there the more comfortable it will become.

I realised this first when learning to snowboard, I found I progressed the best when I did the hard runs. An easy day going down some green runs didn't really help me progress. It was when I pushed myself to try the harder runs that I seemed to progress the quickest.

Something most people don't realise is these 360 videos are typically Monoscopic. You don't get any feeling of depth because a lot of 360 cameras are a single lens.

I much rather prefer 180 Steroscopic, these are videos that are two videos either Side-by-Side or Over/Under. Then mapped to each eye.

180 fills enough space which is supported by these findings in the post but give you a much better feeling of immersion.

BBC's Italy's Invisible Cities used 3D scanning to showcase areas in three Italian cities (Naples, Venice, and Florence). Seeing things mapped in 3D made a world of a difference trying to understand those spaces. It was a great show.

P2P streaming solved a problem when bandwidth cost a lot. Now that it's so much cheaper everyone just chooses to serve it themselves. Even for small operations there's tonnes of cloud options like DO, Scaleway, OVH, et al that offer cheap bandwidth. 10 years ago I paid $12/mbps for dedicated servers just for streaming, now I can get ~200mbps for $5/month (0.025/mbps).

Whenever I read stories that involve guys like these that come in swinging and think they can change things and end up just spending everyone's money, I've always wanted to label this behavior and you got me thinking ... "Broxecutives".

We just got Rick Rolled. One of the bots asked if they should sing "Never gonna give you up" and then started singing it line by line.

While reading the article I kept thinking, yea I remember this movie, I can picture the box art. Then it reveals the Kazaam box art and I thought, oh no it's Kazaam I'm thinking of.

They'll probably also be getting a C&D for the domain itself.

That was my first thought. I used to have a Yahoo email and I'm assuming at this point (multiple hacks), it's out in the wild.

When you're done building it, spend the time to market it.

Or when the keg just ran out.

It's two fold. Amazon bandwidth is, I assume, premium tier 1. Where as ovh and scaleway are probably lower tier. Lower tier bandwidth is dirt cheap, like below $0.25 per mbps.

Edit: 3 things, it's also shared among a lot of users that don't use what they can. For everyone using 100mbps there's probably 20 who use less then 1mbps.

I gave up meat (except fish) 13 years ago. Not because of climate change but I keep it going in part because of it now.

Look into how much water and food you need to grow cows.

They probably chose the device they have the best success cracking. I wonder what phone they used ... checks ... LG G4 ... damn it, that's my phone.

You can still find this in small communities. I get my gas from a small community because it's cheaper on that side of the border. There's like 5-6 gas stations and one supply truck company. The locals all know to buy from the cheapest one and yet the Shell, Chevron, and others are still in business.

I regret buying a rice cooker. I already knew how to make rice in the pot. Now I have a device that sits on a shelf almost all of the time just to simplify 5 minutes of my life.

If it's a web based project /r/internetisbeautiful can get you a lot of exposure.

Whelp, I just learned HN has a search box!

What was the largest one then?

"Dyn estimated that the attack had involved “100,000 malicious endpoints”, and the company, which is still investigating the attack, said there had been reports of an extraordinary attack strength of 1.2Tbps."

I've had an idea like this in my head for awhile now. One use case, you're at home and something just happened, large car accident, loud noise, etc and you want to be able to chat with the people around you while sitting on your couch.

When stuff happens around me when I'm sitting at home I find twitter to be too slow to update and it has a lack of information anyways.

But then you're just dealing with the same network effects that twitter is having trouble with.

For more info, here's the previous thread about Boom which is a Ycombinator company. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11329286

If you've got anything Oculus compatible you should check out The Rose and I, I'm guessing it's a Little Prince inspired scene.

You loose half the resolution since each eye needs to be looking at the same thing. Second since you're looking at it in stereo you need to have the desktop a decent enough distance away from you to be able to focus on it or you'd go cross eyed.

I think this is what causes the effective resolution to drop to that much lower level.

Based on the graph in op's article, my napkin math says if we maintain ppm increases we'd reach 550ppm around 2055.

"Interim DNC Chair Donna Brazile warned in a statement against downloading the data because it could contain "malware,"

... and don't go looking at the data yourself to see what's really in there.

Guys, someones bots going haywire.
