I'm surprised by the amount of negativity in this thread. I was initially going to say that writing a working, solid, free kernel was akin to climbing Everest in terms of human achievement. After the first guy does it, does it really dimi

They did. Those frozen wrap around Matrix style shots are from the wall of cameras. They don't use those shots until the latter half of the video. Also, those particular shots don't really look that great, there wasn't enough overlap on

I'm surprised your brief rebuttal is not floating higher, as I think it is a far superior explanation for the phenomenon. In rural areas where zoning laws do not account for clustering of services like gas stations and fast food restaurant

Yeah, cringe inducing.

So the Blu-Ray market will pretty much be just slightly larger than the Laserdisc market was. I say it will be slightly larger because in the case of LDs, only highly affluent home theater geeks could afford to buy the players and the disc

I'm not really sure what the word "sexy" has to do with a giant multinational corporation. Is this creep speak for "Google is receiving more positive esteem from random members of society due to its recent emphasis on slight aesthetic impro

I saw the comment re: wowza, you guys aren't going to use p2p over rtmfp? Seems pretty essential if you want to nail the person to person calling with Flash.

Here's the thing with Civil Disobedience: you take a certain amount of risk when you do it. In fact, if there is no risk, there's little point in the "disobedient" action at all. So when these guys go to jail for DoSing a server, they've

Verizon has all but abandoned their FIOS deployments. I wish there were more companies like Sonic doing fiber deployments in high density cities. I assume that isn't happening because of the Telco/Cable duopoly that controls easement righ

He is implying that new content (including games) will be created in HTML5 using Canvas and JS instead of in Flash. While google has made a tool that can convert some content from Flash to HTML5 automatically (Swiffy), it only supports ver

Good first step for them. Next: - Price cables and connectors at only a slight markup from monoprice levels (cover the overhead costs, but basically sell without any profit margin) - Stock every single high traffic component possible at ju

There's really not enough of the product on the landing page. Instead of random photos of DPs behind cameras on each feature tab, show us animations of the actual site in use. Even after watching the video I didn't get to see the actual p

Please give me examples of these other sites that take heterogeneous user generated live streams of varying codecs, profiles, etc. that are being delivered to the flash player that perform much better than Justin on your Macbook. I think yo

You're assuming that they actually have real control over player performance on your particular hardware setup, when in fact they have almost no control over it. Go ask Adobe and Apple why flash video (especially anything that isn't h.264)

I group my applications roughly around similar functionality (language learning apps on one screen, games on another, utilities on another, etc.). When I use the home button to return to the SpringBoard, I usually want to open an applicati

I came here to link to this. Albini's article is far funnier and far more relevant to aspiring musicians.

I believe they did address the parts of that letter that they could reasonably address in public, and they did it in standard corpora-turd-ese which is what their investors and clientele all seem to like. I don't think they absolutely had

Yeah, they really nailed it with Circles. That's exactly what I want out of a social network, and they've managed to implement it in a very intuitive way. I can't wait for my friends to get on it so I can finally delete my Facebook accoun

How do you think this response damages their brand exactly?

The parent company of myspace was a spam/spyware company, so Myspace's past in general is somewhat titillating. They seem like the Bad News Bears of startups really. Well, if the Bad News Bears did a bunch of obnoxious things of dubious l

Yes, I'm really not clear on that either. Can someone with a legal background provide some clarification?

Wow, I don't know how I missed that story. Pretty entertaining stuff, he should have stuck that in his corporate bio. I still wonder why people chose to make a Facebook film when the people that started Myspace seem so much more interesti

Well, even if it is Zynga, the talent at Popcap will get a big payout and if Zynga proves to be as stultifying and dull an environment as it seems, then they'll eventually drift away to form new ventures. Not a great deal for gamers, but a
