The cessna citation is a business jet. I don't know what price point they are trying for, but they are aiming for more mass market. The design has no moving parts in the wings and they say the design is amenable for mass production.

The issue is cost. They are claiming an order of magnitude difference in price (1 /10th).

Well the question is if they scaled everything in the 1/4 scale model, including power. They say it is flying since 2007 so we have to assume they did their homework before trying to make the current full scale prototype.

I don't think those are elephants in the room, those will happen. The elephant in the room is cost. Can he make a plane with a order of magnitude difference in price.

Interesting counterpoint to "forget about the lone inventor in a garage". He is aiming to be disruptive and his 25% scale model is impressive.

Hstore's query is only string matching, you cannot do the rich querying which mongodb allows.

I tried openshift a few months ago for Rails. A real pain in the butt. They dont have simple deploy like Heroku. Even heroku can be time consuming in the beginning to get right, openshift was even more complicated. It may work better fo

As the embodied soul continuously passes, in this body, from boyhood to youth to old age, the soul similarly passes into another body at death. A sober person is not bewildered by such a change. The change of body is like changing your clot

So it's still a people problem, a 'gitlaw' would keep track of who changed what. You would still have to find out who did what.

You use your intelligence. The Cisco person says you can do what you want with $500. Then do you continue to spend $30k instead? Do you think your small town library is going to grow into a college campus (as the other pro-mega-router pe
