This app lets you play around with OpenCV, like jsfiddle or codepen: https://cloudvision.app/

I love the component based approach of composing backend assets.

This feels like the next step up from terraform based systems.

Curious if this approach has been tried before?

Propel (and bunch of other ventures) have their genesis at the Blue Ridge Labs.

Blue Ridge Labs focuses on bringing together people who are interested in product, design and engineering to go out and apply tools of empathy and discovery to understand the problems faced by low-income and socially disadvantaged Americans.

For anyone who is at crossroads in their career, I would highly recommend reaching out to @BlueRidgeLabs. I vouch for and support the sincerity of their mission.

Have questions about Blue Ridge Labs? Reach out to @cromulus. Looking to find an engineering position in NYC reach out to @FreshEBT. I am @rksio

Leading sourcesof queries for these frameworks

Embers: USA

Angularjs: India

Extjs: Cuba, china and then India

Knockoutjs: India

Backbonejs: India

My hypothesis is that this graphs shows what people want to learn, perhaps not what they are using. Although, Cuba just looks out of place.

Nayefc, thanks. Your comment was enlightening and makes total sense. Will fix.

Hi HN, I am working on debugging/log analysis service for developers that is designed to plug into continuous integration and act as the first filter for incoming crash/exception logs.

My submission never made it to HN front-page, but I would love any feedback on it. It's at www.bisect.cc. Thanks.

(Jaime, your service is really the kind of functionality that is missing from dev toolbox. Great job at solving real-world problems!)

Is there a relationship between the colors on the graphs? Every graph has different value scale. Hard to compare values between graphs, which is the whole point of the article.

I am working on a project that aims to standardize the use of bisection to narrow-down and arrive at root-cause of bugs. One approach is to run regex on your output logs to determine what modules are running into issues. check out http://bisect.cc

Just curious how many other folks see similar patterns of interruption? (i do)

My understanding is this: the genesis for fold (as opposed to foldl) is from the linked talk: http://vimeo.com/6624203.

If fold (a concurrent reduce) is used instead of foldl (a sequential reduce), then the mapping function can be pushed down and applied concurrently to the various elements. A generic mechanism can then be used for dispatching concurrent operations. These functional operation are composed of first mapping (and/or) filtering and then reducing.

I am from the sub-continent. What you said is actually a good thing. There are lots of Guptas (and Vermas and Sharmas and other north-indian surnames).

In India Guptas marry other Guptas (or Sharmas or Vermas or other surnames, BUT there is marriage within the community).

This is not true for Smiths in any part of the world.

It takes not more than 120 seconds to swab, stick the provided bar-codes on the 4 buds and stick the buds back into the provided casing. You then slip the case into the postage paid envelope and leave it on your outgoing mail for USPS to pick it up tomorrow.

I did this a couple of weeks ago. Just do it and be done with.

Here is a thought: Is there a correlation between bone marrow match and genetic closeness? If there is, it would be a good idea to specifically target people who are from the same community as Amit back in India as well as in the US.

In Indian society, marriage is often within tightly knit communities. What if we track-down people who share second names with Amit's Father and Mother (maiden second name). Would then, the probably of finding a match in such people increase?

Thoughts?

Perhaps this is nitpicking, in this day and age. But that's his biography (as opposed to autobiography).

BTW, how would you do things differently than reblog "notes"?

I agree. They should be making the case for canvas, canvas-3d and SVG (SMIL) based animations with equal conviction, correct?

My undergrad background is in EE and good amount of research work with compilers in grad school. I am apprehensive about working on low-level software because the state-of-art in commercial OS development in smart-phones always lags a few years behind desktop or high-end systems. The software problems have already been solved by other folks.

Example, Low-level software is poorly designed from a software engineering point of view and its problems plainly evident over multiple hardware product cycles.

Ubiquity allows a similar interface, at an arguably better abstraction level: https://mozillalabs.com/ubiquity/

Southern Sun is quieter because of its size. Its hard to hear people sitting across from you at the mountain sun.

What sort of position are you applying for at Qualcomm and more importantly what sort of job are you interested in? Curious because most of Qualcomm's work is way below the abstraction level of the "average" HN audience (I work there)

Boulder, is a fun place to ski/hike with plenty of young interesting folks. Tons of startup folks: http://www.centernetworks.com/why-i-love-boulder

I am usually at the Laughing Goat in the afternoons on the weekend, if you want to meetup.

I am in for meeting up in Boulder.

The Free Software Foundation defines the traits of Free Software as having 4 freedoms (not rights) and explains them in simple language at http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html.

The freedoms are enforced by the GPL, just like any other EULA. So, trying to question why there are only "4" principles, is missing the point. The GPL itself has several terms and conditions.

So, equating the 4 freedoms to the notion similar to the "religious 10 commandments" and then invoking the argument of "dogma" seems disingenuous.

Yep, based on intuition it would definitely seems like fonts with similar font weights (assuming the same font size), would offer similar legibility. The real question is, given a choice of font and the requirement of printing a novel or HN front-page on a mobile device, how do you quantify the trade-offs between them, so that one can say, this saves 'X' amount of ink or power for the same legibility?

Now, What really needs to be done is to compare "Ink Efficiency" with "Legibility". I wonder if there are other factors which can be used to determine whether one font is "better" than another?

BTW, the ink efficiency is better determined using weighted average of distribution of letter frequency in language use over the alphabet and should be trivially determinable by parsing font files.

Sounds like an a valuable mini exploration project suitable for print media.

[EDIT]. Additionally, for display optimizations you need to maximize "Legibility", "Font Size" at various contrast ratios on screen. It would be interesting to be able to quantify an optimal "Font Face" and "Font Size" for various contrast ratios (screen power consumption) for mobile displays.

I am surprized that more developers are not excited about webos. It frees developers from the App store hindrances. What's really needed is a web app to allow app developers to buy/sell/upgrade app licenses. (If the assumption is that not all app developers are interested in maintaining e-commerce infrastructure)

Also, from a users POV, I found the webos interface to be better than iphone or andriod. IMO, its more than an iterative step in interface design.
