So, Griggi is a new wifi sharing service which counts usage in Karma GB's, while Karma is another, unrelated wifi sharing service? https://yourkarma.com/ That seems confusing, name wise.

This seems to be a "standard" iBeacon with Facebook branding? Or is there anything different here?

I'm disappointed that it isn't powered by the kinetic energy of the pressing: I heard some Philips Zigbee control devices work that way (but Wifi might be too power hungry for that). And I was expecting them to use the ESP8266 for

The interesting part of the Dash isn't the backend (something that can handle API calls), but the hardware, and how cheap they can make it.

It says it uses wifi. There are $5 wifi modules, which I guess would have enough processing to remember your wifi, and do 1 HTTP request, and (in volume) should be feasible for $10. A spark core (which has a bit more functions), costs $20 r

Interesting: My startup (which did something totally unrelated) was called Skylines, and I have been wondering what to do with the Skylines.io domain.. :)

patio11: Why name the company Starfighter, while the domain is startfighterS(.io)? Why not name the business Startfighters? (I understand the other domain was taken).

What would be the advantage of these LiPo batteries over traditional lead-based batteries? In car's, I understand weight (and volume) are really important, but for stationary usage these seem way more expensive / Wh stored?

This works better than I expected, but I'm wondering how well it will work if the angle changes (flying around the building) or other parameters change. But looks impressive for how little code it is!

GSM networks ping all devices on regular intervals (besides the handoffs between cells when traveling and when there is data to transmit). This interval is a setting of your network, from minutes to hours.

I was wondering about that as well. According to the manufacturer, the DJI Phantom[1] (a common consumer drone) has a max vertical speed of 6 m/s. So in 10 minutes (battery lasts about 20, 10 up, 10 down), you could reach 3600m. Higher

Honest questions: What kind of benchmark do others uses for a 'reasonable' response time? Of course it fully depends on the use-case (rendering a video can be hard in 500ms), but for user facing stuff? In my previous startup we t

Not to discount the work or end result that went in to this, but when I saw Pixels I assumed it used a 'standard' library, e.g. Leaflet, used for many maps (which have similar zoom) and tiles. I'm wondering why you wrote some
