This is a very interesting project that I will be following; but I can't agree with this sentiment. Experience is a foundation of any skill and programming is no different. This argument could be applied to essentially any profession t

Well, this will be an interesting ride. At least now Notch will have enough time and money to fund that Psychonauts sequel!

Very interesting! The picture is kind of confusing though, it took me a minute to realize that the picture was of an "expansion board" with the module installed (in the lower left hand corner). I like what I see though, they have

I don't know if it's that black and white, but that's certainly each end of the spectrum. I think the most important thing is to stay away from aggregators and blogs and focus on websites that are making good content that can

It seems to me like this wasn't so much an oversight, as it was gleeful embellishment of the facts. I can understand a couple of the situations being honest mistakes, but most of them are perfect examples of how entrenched click bait a

For production embedded systems I wholeheartedly agree with you. But for educational platforms, especially those aimed at complete beginners, the trade-off for accessibility could be well worth the excess power consumption.

Look, I get that the recent sea of -duino devices can get annoying and represents a new, unknown genre of programming to you, but don't be ridiculous. What stopping you from using whatever language you want to use on whatever platform

They aren't really that easy to weaponize, at least not any more. The earliest kinds of Lithium cells actually contained elemental lithium, and could easily cause fire or explosion under certain conditions. Think the Dell laptop fire b

Quatar does not consider their slaves to be a part of the population of Quatar - they are essentially migrant workers who have had their passports confiscated.

What about misspelled domains? DNS Hijacking or Bit Errors? Hostile redirects from innocuous hacked domains? I'm not against using access as evidence, but there needs to be more context than a single attempt to access a domain.

Panasonic already has one of the largest production complexes in the world for battery production; but with the huge demand from Tesla they have had a hard time keeping up with the market. I see this as a way for them to scale up to a capac

Halt and Catch Fire is doing a bang up job of reflecting the technology and even the market of the time. Really refreshing to see.

What constitutes a "rip off"? It's hardly a rare or unique idea to emulate vintage monitors or terminals. Not to mention this is free and open source, rather than Cathodes paid/closed model. While I own, use and love Cat

The stingray is a man in the middle. It requires an uplink to real cell phone services to operate, so a phone call to 911 is going to be patched through

It's possible, but I think that it is more likely that they were placed there to make it more difficult to crack the cipher via character frequency analysis. Then again, I suppose there isn't any reason that it couldn't be bo

I feel like this is not an applicable comparison in regards to workmanship. However, if this truly is the way you want to operate, then I really see no way around simply accepting the situation the way it is now. I can understand why you fe

I feel for the guy. No idea what he thought was going to come of doing this, but I bet it wasn't this. I have a hard time believing he meant to steal 900 identities without using at least a couple layers of protection. But then again I

Instagram has done this in the past as well, and IIRC; before the merger. But by all means - jump on the Facebook hatewagon and take a ride.

I think that you are absolutely right that the web has changed, but I think that it's pretty easy and cliche to blame 'Murican media on it. It's inevitable that things like the internet are going change for a multitude of dif

Nobody wants to use it? Bullshit! You need to make people want to use it, and show them that you have a great product to sell them. I think this product has a lot of potential and I'm interested in trying it out. I'm going to show

Buck or SEPIC based DC/DC conversion systems absolutely do not cost more than even a single LiIon cell. And to have multiple converters is far from a novel concept. I think this is a neat implementation but there is no technical justif

Well considering that she really has no problem sidestepping the generally accepted etiquette and ethics of journalism when it suits her, I think that was exactly the way Forbes should have handled it.

After reading that article, I'm just left with more questions. How were these people hurt? I don't see a BB Gun accident sending 7 people to the hospital.

Well, actually - yes; depending on the country. But that's not the point. The point is that your own country has to go through more convoluted international channels to get your data.

This is different though, as most of the components that are used in this device require you to sign an NDA to even get the datasheet. Most devices beforehand had at least a semblance of the open source movement.

Though I don't know either way in this specific case, this is a very common thing with postsecondary education. Lots of kids are getting too used to highly curated, manually disciplined classroom settings. They are used to the teacher
