I would imagine most interns are under 21 and thus cannot do most of these things. Though I do recommend visiting the Aquarium in Monterey, the Exploratorium and the California Academy of Sciences (During the day if you're under 21)

I think Backblaze offers unlimited for $6/month, Mozy offers 125GB for $10/month. That same pricing $0.140 per GB (on S3) is $17.5/month unless I misunderstand S3 pricing. http://aws.amazon.com/s3/pricing/ http://mozy.com/home/pricing/

Could someone explain the benefit of backing up to S3 as opposed to just a service like Mozy, Backblaze, or Dropbox?

In case people were wondering what Enyo is, it's HP/Palm's Framework for building WebOS apps (or generally mobile apps using HTML).

I believe the sale starts on 7 AM eastern time at HP.com. They still have them in stock.

tl;dr Quora will become the next google search because you will have human curation, the query can be more naturally structured, and discovery of related topics all within the same site. (I do recommend reading the article though, I probabl

There are a lot of features / useful things that are actually in Sublime but just in a preference toggle where you have to look it up. http://sublimetext.info/docs/en/reference/settings.html An example would be "trim_trailing_white_space_

I think another question to ask would be 1) Does pair programming eliminate the need for code review? 2) And those who pair, what tools do you use? I've heard Gerrit, Reviewboard, and Github itself. Though I seem to think Github pull reques

But if you encrypt it with a key, then SQL injection attacks can't collect passwords as easily. You need to hack in and get the actual key to decrypt.

I think having something like, oh that was on my instant queue or now it's gone. Or having a series you're watching be taken off in the middle is way worse. They could at least warn people about those.

I wish Netflix was more transparent about when things are going to be removed and added on Netflix (more so the removal) especially if movies are on your Instant Queue.

See above about the cows in India vs United States. There have also been significant advancements in farming since the 1970s when the Green Revolution happened I would think.

by HaloZero 15y ago
Why hasn't it happened such that somebody just goes to a nation like India and brings modern farming technologies that yield such high growth products here? This allows people to grow products a fraction of the price but at a similar market

It's also an indicator of a pursuit of knowledge beyond required. High school is mandatory, college is not. Acquiring a college degree is a sign that you were able to persist and acquire something without any enforcement. (There are cases w

A lot of people are talking about oh, what will happen with IE / Firefox support. You know what's a better way to address all these problems? (Especially for Firefox). Why not just do the auto-update process Chrome does for Firefox? I can u

by HaloZero 15y ago
An equally likely situation is that users are migrating from IE to both Chrome and Firefox. Now there are also users migrating from Firefox to Chrome. Thus Firefox has remained stable, while Chrome has had immense growth.

I think wireless is still being developed but home wireless is easily replaced (just buy a new router) and of course LTE is being rolled out to get even higher speeds on mobile phones. The important part though is to have a connection that

I am honestly curious how they are going to prevent pirated music from appearing unless by "ripped from CD" they ripped by iTunes from CD. But they mention support songs purchased elsewhere in their blurb. Maybe they just don't give a shit.

These are fairly obvious to anyone over the age of 13... (except the first one perhaps) Be patient, be polite, help out, and don't ask ambiguous questions without enough detail. An inclusion of where / what servers to go to for help would b

I'm pretty sure #2 about working harder is probably a common regret of successful people. Though it depends on what you define as successful, I assume since this is Hacker News the definition of success here is probably something along the

I still hold the best place for a person after graduation is a large but not monolith company. Avoid Google, Microsoft, Amazon, the giant companies where you're just a cog in a giant machine. Go to a company like LinkedIn/Dropbox/Square. Th

The important thing that I think Jess forgot to mention is that inDinero doesn't contract out critical parts of the sites. It's usually smaller things that we want to get done that aren't important enough for the full time engineers. Exampl

The best advice I can give is start not at the monoliths that are Google, Microsoft, Amazon, and the others everyone and their mother knows. Start at company that is medium sized, you'll find plenty of real stuff to work on while having the

I kind of agree with the author about willing to spend big money on things that matter. Mattresses, computers, chairs, desks, things like that are all things that you use regularly. Though that's now that I consider being Frugal. Being frug

Initial setup is always a one time-cost, it takes maybe a day of your time to setup things on any computer (maybe it be Linux, Windows, or Mac). The point is Mac still blends a good combination of Unix terminal, nice GUI, and less hardware
