rizumu··on Secret Cameras Record Baltimore’s Every Move from Above
>“Let’s go get some dirt bikes, Sarge!”

To better understand this reaction and why the police want to use this technology to their advantage in winning the cat-and-mouse game with Baltimore's urban dirt bikers, see the documentary film "12 O'clock Boys".

rizumu··on Berlin community radio
Interesting to note that Soundcloud terminated the BCR account in October. Fortunately they finished transferring their archives to Mixcloud that same day.

rizumu··on An Analysis of Nespresso
I been keeping an eye on this Roast-grind-brew coffee machine startup and still can't make up my mind if it is worth it:(https://www.bonaverde.com/en).

I'm still happy grinding my own beans and slow brewing them in a vacuum press. Seems though that the all-in-one roast to cup would be tastier for a cup of coffee (not an espresso).

I drank Nespresso for a few years at work. Always went for the dark/espresso roast but it never compared to a decent cup of coffee or espresso. I could tolerate it, but it was barely a step up from a gas station, vending machine joe.

A primary goal here appears to be one of convincing people to use open and secure tools, but if you are already convinced of that, a far more comprehensive list is PRISM-break https://prism-break.org
rizumu··on Show HN: Hacker News' “most unique support email of 2014”
Uniqueness is absolute, so the support email is either unique or not. There are no degrees of uniqueness for something to be more unique than another thing. Sorry, but this grammar mistake is a big pet peeve.

rizumu··on How a German Soda Became Hackers' Fuel of Choice
I think it is similar in that are many cola options, but only one Coca-Cola. Although there are many mate alternatives as well, the mystique surrounding Club Mate and its recipe is what makes it stand out from the rest.

rizumu··on Updated Packages – Python 3.3
As a full time Arch user the change was a little annoying at first but now I am perfectly happy using Python3 as the default because all my Python shell scripts and system installed packages work under Python3. I can simply work in a Python2 virtualenv when I need python2.

rizumu··on Ask HN: What Are Some Good GitHub "Contributing" Examples?
This one is done well: http://opencomparison.readthedocs.org/en/latest/contributing...
rizumu··on Degrowth
It is worth repeating the main idea here: "Key to the concept of degrowth is that reducing consumption does not require individual martyring and a decrease in well-being. Rather, 'degrowthists' aim to maximize happiness and well-being through non-consumptive means—sharing work, consuming less, while devoting more time to art, music, family, culture and community."
rizumu··on Ask HN: How do you handle being blocked on others?
We use kanban which helps keep blocked stories in check because they can easily be flagged 'red' or 'blocked'. Then the rest of the team sees this and can pitch in to help out because the idea is that a blocked story has highest priority.
rizumu··on The Apple Reaper
"He recites 11.2 to me. I again attempt to explain in detail how the app works, how Stripe works, and how we use Stripe with the various apps and products we have. He stands firm."

I once had this argument with a tech over a macbook apple care repair. My screen cable was broken, no display. They opened and found a coffe stain on the case from many months prior. He said I had water damage. I asked what part is damaged by the water. We must have went back and forth 20+ times on this detail. Nothing was damaged by the water, they found an old stain on the case!

After shipping it to them twice with no repair, finally I cleaned it out entirely with a qtip and took it to an authorized service center. Fortunately the tech there was able to negotiate the claim for the busted cable.

Was it because I already have a few apple care repairs and was near the end of my term? No, the phone operator was trained robotically to repeat the same nonsensical phrase ad infinitum.

rizumu··on Why Russia Locks Up So Many Entrepreneurs
Well you are talking about NBC censoring, this on the other hand is the goverment putting people in prison. Since the govt controls the TV and papers you wouldn't find much information about the Moscow protests that took place a few months ago. You'd have to look to the internets, which are next in line to be censored. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freedom_of_the_press_in_the_Ru...
