At Startup Weekend events in LA it's popular to show Alec Baldwin's performance of the "Coffee is for Closers" speech from "Glengarry Glen Ross." The intent is to try and rally the troops and build excitement. Really this is something I fin

When I used to do IT work a few years ago I would use a large key drive as my general rescue drive. I would keep a 4-8GB OS partition and the remainder of the drive would store various disk images I needed. This meant I always had Mac OS X

I'm going to lean on the side of Jeff Atwood simply being genuinely enthusiastic about the technology and sharing. I've followed his blog for a while and have ever thought that he was a shill. I'd hope that he made enough while at Stack Ove

In my experience with converting to XAML you don't experience the same degradation since your art is being actively redrawn. You can add gradient brushes and other embellishments that scale well. Perhaps I will dust off my windows laptop an

WPF and Metro are of course both XAML so the same push from the WPF days applies. I've build apps in Silverlight and WPF that scaled just fine. You just need to make sure you start with proportional design and stay that way, using some key

I don't think so. At work we set up some servers on the west coast to take over in case our main provider on the east coast went down. I'd say the chance of one of their people getting hurt isn't really worth anyone's uptime. Also all the s

More than likely 2A is just to have some headroom for everything. They likely allocate an amp for the two USB. I can't seem to get access to the site now but I imagine there are a couple 5v and 3.3v pins in the GPIO header that are allocate

I'm a huge fan of the possibility of heavily shielding off the shelf parts. It seems logical to me to try to incorporate it into unmanned craft. However, I'm guessing there are probably people who have simulated this and it probably hasn't

In addition to it being broken, in C++11 auto_ptr is depreciated. Since they're moving to C++ now, they may as well use the latest features as often as possible (when the use case makes sense of course).
