Only because it's Soviet-style doesn't mean it's bad.

Le Reddit army is here

How are they going to build on Google's land? Will Google own the housing?

Do they also make raw sensor data available for free? I.e. if I wanted to build my own forecast system based on this code, I would still need all the data they collect with weather balloons, right?

It works offline.

Murder directly harms other people, while drugs directly affect only the person taking them. The line is if it directly harms others it should be illegal; otherwise not.

According to Uber website their service is available in Philadelphia.

This is an efficient and sustainable model for higher education in general.

Can this be done at the software level? I.e. feature built in to OS that modifies displayed image in the same way this screen does.

Some innovative history teachers should start incorporating this dataset into curricula somehow.

Can't seem to find a single city with both Comcast and Time Warner Cable.

More streaming vs purchasing mp3s doesn't mean people will be using headphones less.

This is great. One use case: my grandma who struggled to learn how to use email can now make websites.

I'm surprised you are allowed to take your work from within Google and turn it into a personal startup.

Many people eat nothing but unhealthy crap for years and still stay relatively healthy. Human body is really good at metabolising even a limited variety of food into many different chemicals it needs. Well-balanced diet hasn't really been a thing in human history until recently. Mix of nutrients designed to our best knowledge can't be any worse than eating pizza/fries/burgers/soda 24/7.

Is it fair to say that such project would have difficulty raising funds from traditional academic sources like NSF?

This is great, but I was really hoping they would add a way to remotely control other Android device.

It would be interesting to see some data and in depth analysis on this subject to tell apart unfounded conspiracy claims from an actual problem that needs to be addressed.

The difference is that nobody ran their businesses on Google Reader. They won't just shut the service that thousands of people rely on to make a living, especially the one that's cash positive.

> So since this is HN... is there any way to get to an MVP without having a sovereign state to experiment with?

Seasteading might be an answer to your question.

So now I have to charge 2 devices instead of 1 every day? This is my biggest issue with smart watches.

> spending 4 years on a campus with thousands of other young people who are all there to learn and explore is transformative. You don't get that once you hit the real world.

It depends on the school. Most colleges aren't exactly an intellectual environment where people talk about singularity and high tech over lunch. I'll have much better luck finding a qualified cofounder just living in the Bay Area and going to meetups than at your average college that's not Harvard or Stanford.

"Math questions will focus on three areas: linear equations; complex equations or functions; and ratios, percentages and proportional reasoning. Calculators will be permitted on only part of the math section."

As if math requirements for American students aren't low enough already.

Paid peering is frowned upon, but it happens all the time. This is not a threat to net neutrality.

If they describe how passwords were hashed, it would make it easier for hackers to crack them.

So, a meetup.com with selectivity and a better looking website.

Lenovo is getting 2,000 patents, not 10,000.

Lots of people stream Pandora and YouTube in background. Few people use new windows. Adding a control for users to decide would sacrifice simplicity of UX.
