Would #FFFFFF on a white tee just be a blank tee? ;)

Is the "Code A2 $100" prize a cash award or just a voucher to spend on whatever Code A2 is? If not, considering the sponsors, its disappointing that the prizes do not include something monetary for college.

Even $100 barely buys one textbook these days.

There goes a half hour :)

I'm now seeing weird ghosting of text elsewhere on the web, like the text is continuously falling from itself. Weird!

This was discussed on HN a few weeks ago: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6481319

I have the same version on Mac and it doesn't work. Weird

I don't use PhpMyAdmin but my servers get hit regularly from vulnerability-bots looking for holes in phpmyadmin/*.php pages.

Are there a lot of known security issues outstanding?

Heres a full version on Synthesia https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KTz94crRC6g

This should be a channel on YouTube if its not already. Great job!

Was expecting something to do with Leap Motion tech, but cool anyways

How about "too many chefs, not enough cooks"

Shouldn't something like this be measured using #CPU ops per CPU-time instead of just 'seconds'?

Have they analyzed the dripped substance? My first thought is that it could be from condensation formed on the pitch over a large amount of time due to temperature gradients.

Logic is one of the cheapest (if not the cheapest) of the higher end DAWs out there. Combine that with the amount of plugins and sounds it ships with at that price tag and I think its one of the best options out there.

The problem is you get managers who are "head count" hungry and want as many people reporting to them as can fit in the building. It becomes a matter of politics. Having a limit placed from the top down is a good thing. More large corps should do this.

That's pretty interesting. What age did that start and, if you don't mind telling, how much was given? Willing to try that with my future kids.

Why were you playing therapist when you could have told HR?

Looks like you can also peek at "apps that <friend name> uses". I wonder what other privacy issues linger here...

> Seems like there's a need for a cloud infrastructure/language independent packaging format, to build a "github of installable applications"

I think Chef and Puppet try to fill that role, somewhat

Edit: actually, this recent HN discussion looks promising https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5392041

Usually the enterprise sales process will include a confidentiality agreement which includes the sale price, discounts, etc for that customer. Usually this is enough for most transactions.

I think the first thing people should ask themselves is: Why are you trying to get into this scene without any skills?

In the last 10 years Silicon Valley and startups in general have attracted a mush of people who bring little or no value to the table. I'm not talking about business/product types or MBAs that might at least have some experience and maybe some contacts and financial know-how. No, its the kind of people who for no other reason are thrilled by the celebrity-esque world of high-flying startups that might come with free lunch/dinner/beer, parties, and items found in The Social Network.

People should learn some product and marketing skills at larger, non-startup companies first before taking sweat equity or low/no pay at a startup. Also make contacts at meetups and learn the finance side of things. THEN you will have less of a problem "Getting into the tech scene", skills in hand.

In retrospect it seems yes. But my guess is that "consumers" here were probably friends and family and they told the OP what he wanted to hear.

Correct. I think he quoted the price for a young single male non-smoker with no dependents. Thats me and the price I pay monthly.

The best music for me when trying to be productive is music that I least pay attention to and concentrate on enjoying. If the music is too interesting then I get distracted. So for me: techno.

From PBS's Rise of the drones http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/military/rise-of-the-drones.htm...

They profiled a new type of drone which is basically a human-controlled missile. Fly it right into a window!

Not easy on a Sunday while at home.

Since when does "efficient" mean a net-gain in energy? Seems like Broder needs to revisit his high school Science AND English classes.
