Would you consider Myspace to be dead?

Many people would, and the same applies to Klout.

is keeping score what we're interested in today?

can't you use vt-d and have it passthrough?

I don't understand. I'm sure there are tradeoffs (as with all things) but what do the bikes have to do with it? Was the Véli program funded by billboards?

Sometimes people even post the videos to HN or Reddit, and people comment on there as well.

this is the same guy that did the 'bellevue wives matter' huh? I didn't realize he was a recent transplant.

I love going dancing in Capitol Hill (Swing, Salsa, Ballroom) but I don't find the neighborhood as welcoming and I was told it would be. University District seems like the place to go if you're young.

The author of this site seems to think that in the ideal world, districts would be decided up with clear straight lines.

This is not the case. Districts should represent distinct groups of people. Ideally, with well drawn districts, political representation will be accurate to the popular vote.

I'd recommend you all read the following article if you haven't yet.

I think if you wanted to solve districts algorithmically, you would need a neural network.

Single GPU setups show no performance degradation at 2.0 x16 and some/slight degradation at 2.0 x8.,

5GB/s should do just fine.

You are seeing a sentiment that isn't there.

The author doesn't take a political stance on Nuclear Power. He's just documenting the contamination zone. He talks briefly about how the disaster could have been avoided if the plant was designed better. He gives factual and statistical information about how the residents don't want to return there.

This is a primary source that offers an first-hand account of the Fukushima disaster and it's aftermath. The author is an authority on Fukushima contamination zone because he's been there and seen it with his own eyes, and has chosen to share that with us.

Just because Arkadiusz Podniesińki doesn't straight out say "I support continued investment in nuclear power" doesn't necessarily mean he's against investment in nuclear power.

I think it's counter-productive to lambast an article like this because it doesn't fit into how you perceive the world. I think it's important to have an open mind and to be able to listen to what other people have to say.

We should be encouraging people to make more pieces like this. I know I'm going to be sharing this article.

fish farms had just gone commercial in the 70's but hadn't grown that much at the time. the excess of high quality fish was wild salmon.

in the 70's in norway (and in alaska, can't speak about anywhere else) commercial fishing was in it's prime.

you can read more about the history of norwegian aquaculture here. http://www.svt.ntnu.no/iso/anders.skonhoft/Marine%20Policy%2...

    > If you have time to browse HN you're not poor enough to justify pirating over a $6 rental.

I'm not advocating for piracy and don't think it's generally justifiable in most situations, but I don't think it's really fair for you to claim that people that browse a specific website are at some certain level of status or economic-well-being.

Maybe everyone you know irl who reads HN is a hot-shot rock-star developer, but I assure you the people you know who read HN is not representative of everyone who reads HN.

The linked article is the blog post announcing the discontinuation of RubySpec.

Perhaps this link is more relevant to anyone interested into Initiative-1401 [0]?

I thought you were TempleOS at first glance.

599 out of every 600 sites don't have the problem of a public facing .git folder. I don't think alternative deployments need to be suggested as they are commonplace.

It depends on what sort of platform and server you're running on but just do what you have to do so you're not serving your .git.

you're not playing over rdp; that would be terrible.

you're using steam in-home streaming through the vpn.

Microsoft's fiscal year ends tomorrow, so it looks like they're balancing things out.

the goal isn't too treat autism, but instead to treat anxiety in individuals with autism.

Whenever the topic of self driving cars comes up in conversation I let people know I think self driving cars are going to solve a lot of our traffic woes.

I'm not sure if a model exists yet for cars 'putting out' traffic waves, but I'm sure once we have self driving cars and they start talking to each other this is going to be of great interest.

I'm hoping we can effectively 'micro' away some degree of congestion.

Windows 10's package manager, while unsophisticated, should provide a secure route to download PuTTY safely. Right?

Are you gonna put it on GitHub? I'm itching to make Twenty 48

Maybe you would want to re-post this under a more anonymous HN account? That sounds like pretty private information you're sharing with the world. It took me less than a minute to find out who your CTO (co-founder?) is.

I know your current situation must be rough but I really don't think it's appropriate to be sharing information so personal to your co-founder's life online.

This isn't a limitation of Explorer, but actually is a very well documented part of the Windows API. MAXPATH has always been 260 characters.

Here's a mirror of the original version of this blog post. I'd like point out a couple of quotes. https://web.archive.org/web/20150211134734/http://blog.eleme...

>We want users to understand that they’re pretty much cheating the system when they choose not to pay for software.

Elementary's self-important attitude has and continues to completely baffle me. People joke about ElementaryOS being just Ubuntu + Pantheon Shell, because it is just Ubuntu + Pantheon Shell.

Elementry's Dev team doesn't pay for Ubuntu, they don't pay for the Kernel or GNU Tools, and yet they made the argument that the end user is 'cheating the system' when they download a prebuilt iso of a collection of free software for free.

If Elementary wanted to take the high ground, they'd introduce a Humble Bundle style payment system split between the various foundations they're building off of. Maybe the defaults would look something like 30% to the Linux Foundation, 20% to the FSF, 20% to Debian, 20% to Ubuntu, and 10% to themselves.

It appears the US Government is making it up intel by having them use the chips in a new supercomputer for the department of energy.

I wonder if you'd be able to have a GPS unit that you could use to exonerate yourself without having to have that system managed by a third party.

I was translating on the first tour of your office to some japanese exchange students, and if I recall correctly, you guys had different rooms that implied different levels of 'don't interrupt' vs 'really don't interrupt me', right?

I don't know how I feel about this race to the bottom that is design work through sites like fiverr.

I can only hope oDesk and the like don't ever replace the need for a full time programmer or I'll be out of a job.
