Btw do the teams that don't get invited an email at all?

Very nice! Reminds me a bit from our effort to try to help deaf people dance:

Unfortunately we could not make the app really work as the precision of timer on Windows phone is horrible, and on IOS you don't have api to properly control vibration...

maybe some day.

The Netflix challenge forums are a treasure trove when it comes to this particular ML problem. In the end the algorithms grew into huge monsters blending results from tens of algorithms, but the most interesting discoveries were made in the first year IMO.

Whoa. I've had similar ideas on my own, and now it seems they weren't so unique after all. I'm founder of Wavesum which is focused on music analysis algorithms and their applications. Would be cool to compare our beat tracking algos. Lots of love and ramen was put into ours.

Tim's voice shakes a lot. I wonder what makes him so nervous.

I don't see how making closed source apps is "Controlling open source"

General tip: Never say never. Op has a good point there that shadows are not usually black in tint but the opposite hue from highlights. Black has its uses though when you are not painting a painting.

I don't see the problem here. The way I understand open source is that the source is available and can be distributed forward.

I think it's bit troubling to define Open Source as "Free" software as defined by GPL. That's very misleading as it is very far from free since you are not free to distribute any parts of your software with any other license.

GPL is like legal virus.

Thumbs up for the OP. Good, altruistic effort.

"The iPhone 5C ships with iOS 7 pre-configured to use background wallpaper that matches the color of the Phone. Little touches like this really differentiate Apple’s products from its competitors"

Have you heard of Lumias?

How about anonymously linking this post in an e-mail to the upper management?

This piano has a bit sinewavish sound to my liking, but ofc can't argue taste (:

Umm what is the threat here? I think the police woman is just trying to help. Informing that what he is doing might be illegal and it's probably not a good idea.

Trying to explain to this young man that even if he doesn't like his former employer, harassment in the internet is not right way to take it forward, but going to health officials instead. I call that service.

I frankly see no reason for all this butthurt.

The most interesting feature of Glass for me is having the camera which would leave my hands free. GlassUp doesn't have that. Plus it's ugly as f*.

Let's see but I would predict this will be a huge flop.

At least my home town (Tampere, Finland, the home of Nokia) is so cloudy that the image data is useless. Misleading headline.

Well, now that I did and I want my 10 minutes back. I disagree though with you there about this article dirctly addressing my comment. It directly addresses a strawman argument the author pulls out of air in the beginning. I think everyone agrees that Linux supports more hardware and OSX supports less. And by doing this they can support in a better way. Don't you?

Did not read. How is this news? People run Linux on their alarm clocks whereas OSX is made to work with the few different hardwares Apple makes.

Depressing analogy :(

I think the important question is: Why would we need to know, and why would we care. His/her work is done. Let Satoshi be.

I'm sick of that buzzword. Skeuo this skeuo that. The correct word for the design style is "realistic"

I don't understand :)

Could someone explain what this kind of technology means in practice? Does this mean I can GPU accelerate my old code?
