The real benefit of Netflix/Hulu is not so much a reduction in video bitrate, but that they run cache CDNs closer to the customers, so there is less traffic traversing long distances over the Internet. Thus, less "Internet" t

It doesn't have to be a high-amp power supply- you could use a low-amp supply to charge up another supercapacitor, then use that capacitor to charge your laptop's supercapacitor.

I was alluding more to the customer support aspect of it. If a technician spends one hour troubleshooting your network problems, then they've already lost their profit for the month.

The customer.io story seems like a great example of why NOT to use budget providers like OVH and Hetzner for mission-critical applications. You get what you pay for.

Yet there's no shorthand for the "potentially beneficial" scope... I just hate that the general public connotes "radiation" with "harmful".

Probably just a case of careless copypasta-ing by a clueless marketing guy.

$("#mischacam").attr("src", camURL + "/snapshot.cgi?_=" + Math.random()); Out of curiosity, why do you append a random number between 0 and 1 to the URL?

I don't see any value add... are you just reselling SFF PCs with Ubuntu preinstalled? What makes this Kickstarter special?

Completely agree with what you said, but I think you mean "complementary", not "complimentary".

It does qualify for STEM, but the fact is that "Information Science" people don't know how to write code. Silicon Valley needs people who can code, not people with "5+ years of experience using MS Word"

AP1000 is a pressurized water reactor based on technology that is more than half a decade old! Is anyone at all suspicious about why they wouldn't use the more efficient breeder design?
