wait, is it on it's side?

Yeah the probe is covered in panels. The main issue is that it did not land where they intended and it is mostly in shadow. I am not a rocket scientist but... it looks like it will be getting closer to the sun as time goes on here so maybe the light it can get later will be more intense and enough to power it?

Thank you! It should be HN policy to not post paywall sites IMO

Is this actually common? I'm just curious. I have three years experience out of school and assumed that consulting rates were more like $50-$100/hr

That's probably the reason that guy is now self employed

If it's free I'll deal with the commercials. Gives you time to get up and stretch/use the restroom/ play with the dog/ etc.

This is fantastic. Consumers have been showing for a long time now that they desire better access to cable tv content. Hopefully the cable companies don't abuse their power as ISPs to limit competition online.

Well for one, the cost of living in India is insanely lower than the United States much less San Fran.

It's incredible that it determined optimal ways to win

Welp that's about the only thing worth watching on CBS...

It's the new message board for many people. You can go join subreddits for any hobby you can think of. You can use subreddits to research new interests and meet others that share your interests. Once you get off the front page, there is a lot of great content.

Am I supposed to feel sorry for someone that got caught exploiting online games?

Fantastic response

Facebook employees use @fb.com

It's super obvious that it would be CGI after reading those specs. They're pretty impossible with current technologies.

I dont think they were intending for this to go out on production applications just yet. You could just play around with the API in some personal or open source project for now. Whatever pricing plan they come out with should be reasonable.

Regardless of what current licenses dictate, should someone be able to port someone else's code to make a profit? Seems pretty shady to rewrite someone's code just to get around a license. Maybe this is where patents come into play.

Well people do tend to spit in minuscule amounts when they speak. The person could also cough and throw spit around. It wouldn't be entirely impossible to contract it by sitting near someone for several hours.

You can test it without ingesting it. With hundreds of reviews I'd hope a few people were smart enough to sacrifice some of their MDMA to test it.

One of my previous employers went and acquired a startup that had three employees and each had a C title. One was chief Organization Officer. What exactly are you organizing?!

The NSA has already shown this to be relatively trivial. Don't think for a second the government wouldn't harness that knowledge in an emergency situation such as an Ebola outbreak within the US.

> There are millions of programmers around the world who'll never write any code outside work, and they vastly outnumber the rest of us.

You mean the programmers with healthy work-life balance that have better things to do than waste their free time staring at a text editor? The implication that these "other programmers" are inferior in some way and require IFTTT to integrate services is quite offensive to me.

It just got a lot better with v0.3.0. The code is much more organized and is basically documentation on its own. They also added the ability to call/modify/add internal functions externally so its much easier to build off of.

Check out c3 v0.3.0's source code. It's the closest thing to self documenting code I've seen so far. Any holes in the docs have been cleared up by grepping the source really quick.

Next step would be to optimize the placement algorithm I think. The 'K' example is the post obvious. You could have robots start creating the lower right quadrant and correct their position as the rest of the group gathers.

Devil's advocate: We should be careful about doing this as we could end up harassing someone over a false claim or overreaction. In this case, maybe some discretion is necessary. I do support public humiliation in cases that are well documented and blatant.

While I support his right to travel I think he would be foolish to exercise that right at the moment. If I'm traveling abroad and find myself on a flight with him I will politely exit the aircraft.

Breaking even eventually. I doubt they're going to suddenly just stop refining all of that oil. There will have to be a trend before the oil companies start lowering their output.

The author's assertion that D3 doesn't work with Angular is rather fishy seeing as there is a book specifically written about using D3 with Angular: https://leanpub.com/d3angularjs

its an easy misconception to have. Luckily there are charting libraries written with D3 like nvd3 and rickshaw.
