I am not aware of any vehicle with autonomous capabilities which bases it's operation on "following other cars".

I'm assuming some of this was driven by Microsoft's desire to support the Docker ecosystem? Great move!

Your idea is basically discouraging (and punishing) saving. You are completely missing the fact that those "savings" are reinvested into the economy via loans, credit, capital, etc.

How does this compare to http://clarify.io?

Real science behind the strains they choose and I've never seen a probiotic with more of them (115 different bacteria).

Unless you rely on UDP!!! https://code.google.com/p/google-compute-engine/issues/detai...

We had a gold level support ticket open about this for months and they recently responded that they are making it a "feature request". Yes, proper UDP packet reassembly is a " feature request".

Not sure what experience is influencing your comment, but it's simply not true. I know many Bay Area based companies that are hiring more and more technical talent in Austin because they can not find it where they are.

Is there more overall technical talent in the Bay Area? Absolutely, but that doesn't mean the talent elsewhere is "very poor" and "3 years out of school".

Accepting higher credit limits actually improves your credit score over time, assuming you do not actually use the credit. In my opinion, you should accept the credit limit increases when offered.

Anecdotal (and risking downvotes), but my opinion: Brazilian Jiujitsu. It's like Chess for the mind while simultaneously getting an incredible workout.

Still no Postgres :(

I know several local bankers who are retiring early because its too hard to make loans. They are sitting on tons of cash, but there are too many regulatory hurdles to lend the money. Loans which would have made total sense 20 years ago are no longer feasible. Many of our small businesses in this country are dying on the vine.

Thanks for your comment. The vast majority of networks outside of GCE don't use an MTU of 1460. Even if we set the instance MTU size to 1460, we still have problems. If a UDP packet sent to a GCE instance from outside GCE is larger than GCE's MTU, the first fragment is received and no subsequent fragments ever make it to the instance. This is the bug. This is very common with protocols like SIP when the SDP gets large due to a lot of media attributes.

While I (sort of) agree with the basic premise of what you're saying, in the real world, its not very helpful.

We didn't "pick" UDP. We operate a VoIP related service that interoperates with many different carriers via SIP. Almost all of those carriers ONLY use UDP. SIP UDP packets can often be fairly large. This is especially problematic because GCE uses a non standard MTU size (1460 bytes). This does not make our app, or every other SIP related app that is forced to use UDP, "Buggy".

If anyone is interested in a good probiotic with a lot of solid science behind it, you should definitely check out http://www.generalbiotics.com

It was created by the guys behind the NSF funded Human Biome project. It's excellent and contains over 100 strains (not just a few like most probiotic).

Tesla battery pack here I come!

Yes. Many times. Here is one instance: https://artofgrappling.files.wordpress.com/2014/07/ufc-175-r...

I can't believe the company behind Rework didn't give him one. I hope they end up doing so!

Does Google Compute Engine have the instances needed for this as well? Their datacenter is centrally located, so long times are much faster for me than east or west coast.

Isn't that the entire premise of The Matrix?

How is this (just one example) a "weird belief"?

There is an easy API for this now: http://Clarify.io

We use it to allow our customers to search their calls and voicemail messages.

I recommend General Biotics: http://www.generalbiotics.com

David frequents HN (which is how I found it) and he even took the time to personally answer questions for me via email.

There is no probiotic on the market like it and it is based on real science.

I was expecting to be able to record myself in each grid tile.

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. It's the best full body, strength and cardio workout I've ever experienced on a regular basis. It's also very fun and mentally challenging. I've done many other martial arts over the years, and in terms of a "work out", none can compare.

Most schools are filled with very encouraging and friendly people. If you find one where that is not the case, leave and join another.

Its interesting that the only position with Ruby as a top skill was "CTO". Implies that Rails is quickly losing popularity.

My wife's name is Aurelia and its really weird to see a web framework named this. Its like naming a framework: "Thomas".

Example:

Me: What tools/framework did you use to build the app?

You: Aurelia.

Me: Oh cool, I used Thomas.

You: Yeah, I thought about using Thomas, but stuck with Aurelia because it offered better features.

We already have remote drone operators "pulling the trigger" every day.

Unfortunately no. There is a HUGE gap in the WebViews that ship between 4.0 and 5.0. Also, WebGL is not supported by any native Android WebView until 4.4. CrossWalk effectively lets you ship the latest Chrome WebView for all devices running 4.0+

I don't think the article ever implies that this would REPLACE air conditioning.

Last sentence: "But the idea of even part of a building’s cooling system being electricity-free is an attractive one, so this may be the start of something really cool."

They could be bundling Crosswalk so any 4.0+ device would run the app in a Chrome 37+ WebView. Much better performance.
