To be fair to the article, It's pretty upfront about the constraints. From the article: 'Of course, there are several guarantees that HATs cannot provide. Not even the best of marketing teams can produce a real database that “beats CAP”; HA

"Every game on OUYA is free to try. We believe you shouldn't have to buy it unless you love it" That's pretty cool. Count me in.

Begs the question though, what exactly are they doing during R&D? About 2 years ago i was building comparable devices for around £285 GBP each. Today i can do the same (thanks to cheaper lighter parts and experience on my part) for slig

All fur coat and nae knickers as they say. Shame because I reckon we're overdue some positive news about Iran instead of all the propaganda we've been getting drip fed in the west over the past couple of years.

I don't think anyone's disputing the quality of the products, Idea's ItelliJ, Microsoft's Visual Studio, ST2 - they're all quality software. I just wanted to pick a bone with something you said though: >> Some times there are benefi

May be worth exploring the differences between "safer" cells such as LiFe / A123 vs the riskier Li-ion & LiPo types. I understand the charging strategy for A123 is much simpler to implement than for Li-Ion (may not even need a micro con

I'm just surprised there isn't more damage from the fire! I use similar chemistry batteries (although much smaller) in RC planes (they are very energy dense for their weight). When they are damaged (normally through charging incorrectly but

I still can't see how on purely financial terms, open sourcing ST becomes a better outcome than keeping it closed source. The open source avenue (awesome as it would be) is effectively stopping any future income for releases. That means fin

I enjoyed the article but I feel it overlooks one of the biggest reasons to use something like maven: It gives us the language to efficiently reason about and discuss build concepts with colleagues. This is a big thing, think about the mos

I'm not a C# coder but I understood it was possible to have non-nullable types? Keep meaning to try C# for a project sometime. I understand it to be a more expressive, programmer friendly Java.

If you don't understand the implications of eventual consistency, you're heading for a fall. It's not a trivial topic and unfortunately "it appears to work as you'd expect" on a small dev cluster which can lead to statements like yours. You

As a non-american, i'm curious (& supportive). When are you going to get together and drop your TSA? Could you band together this year and get rid of it?

It's an indirect advancement. It's beneficial by expanding the circle of people engaged in the issue. To some extent, it doesn't really matter what Linus proclaimed but he's helped here by tipping others over the edge of contributing to the

That's a strange line of argument. It's obvious that the communication to Aaron was "up to 35 years", he wasn't told "up to 7 years" or "up to 3 years", the communication he received was "up to 35 years in prison". To argue that the prosecu

This story stinks, what an obnoxious sense of entitlement. How dare they break YOUR webcam, and why should you invest untold hours in learning how to contribute and then fixing it. World on a plate with no effort to give back? Meh.
