This is awesome, my only suggestion would be the ability to rearrange the order of the employees, or maybe hiring order is part of the strategy :D

Slightly unrelated, but first author on this paper is Scott Kulp, an acquaintance and fellow ACM member from my undergrad days, and above and beyond one of the smartest people I've ever met in my life. As in, double majored in Math an

Fun fact, Nebraska Furniture Mart holds 0x0004 on the list of Linux Manufacturer USB Ids [1]. At my last job we built a product with a custom OpenWRT fork, and I needed to identify an Atmel D21 behind a usb hub on a custom board we built, a

Good question. I think if you declared that instead of saying "red", we now all said "butterfinger", it's not that it would be illegitimate, but if it didn't gain any momentum you'd be hard pressed to say

Is it just me, or is there an uptick in boutique programming language posts on HN lately? Not complaining, just curious if anyone else has noticed.

Definitely not knocking it, I've been in and out of the indie dev scene for quite a few years now, just calling a spade a spade is all.

At first read I was ready to write this off as a legal nightmare, but it’s interesting as a service concept. Run a router that supports this always-open (or rather, widely known auto mechanism) protocol, maybe get some kick back. That said,

My high school physics teacher (~2006) told us once when discussing career prospects that if you could build/discover a material that was a superconductor at room temperature, you'd probably end up the richest person in the world.

I wrote C++ in college before I started with iOS/Obj-C around 2010, and 75% of my work from then until Swift launched was Obj-C, the rest was Java. So, just from a readability and writing standpoint, verbosity (or lack there of) was a

And you can't argue that the extent of web/ios/android development is generic CRUD. I'm not attempting to make it for domains of my choosing, I'm making it for the entirety of computer science related domains.

I'm sorry, but anyone who says any domain is easy either hasn't written real code in it, or is making gross generalizations about entry level code monkey positions that doesn't reflect the entirety of the space. I don't

This is where I'm at. If we see absurd leaps and bounds made in the homebrew milling/printing scene in terms of speed, cost, performance, then I'll start down that path, but for the time being the race to the bottom in terms

It's akin to the issue with traffic, and adding more/wider highways. It doesn't let the existing cars move more freely, it just attracts more.
