Do I have to keep the phone unlocked and the app open to have the kind of experience demonstrated in the video? If that's the case, given the kind of batteries in the smartphones, the fun won't last very long. I can keep it connec

I believe Loopt was on C# stack and its founder is currently leading YC, so I'm sure Paul didn't take stack too seriously when evaluating companies. There are a lot of good reasons to use Microsoft stack, and I suspect more than a

Maybe Jobs wanted to launch "The Sixty" and did not have a product deemed personalizable enough to do so in his time? Where they could, they have iMac, Macbooks, Mac minis. So with OSX, they do have multiple options cause it fits.

I actually felt better about this design. I, too, was anticipating something radical. But we have seen what happened with Google Glass. I think the way to innovate in wearables is to start with something that doesn't stand out and then

So if it wasn't open source, how would you go about discovering Heartbleed? It was discovered independently by multiple people beacause it was open source - so contrary to your naive assumption, people are looking at these things. Here

Finally! This is boon for all the RAW format lovers. To see how outdated their pricing was - One could buy a $179 Chromebook to get 100GB Google Drive free for 2 years. Still cheaper than what Dropbox used to be, and you got a Chromebook!

It's not just about screwing intentionally. Open source also helps with getting more eyes on the code. You need to be able to catch vulnerabilities before the bad guys or no amount of good reputation would survive. That is the primary

CMU transitioned from Java to Python when I was an upperclassman there. I'm not sure what other similar places do, but CMU splits introductory courses into 2 parts - 110, 112. 110 is the basic programming with gradual intro to OOP and
