It's an interactive raytracing demonstration. Draw on it, and watch it simulate light diffusion, reflection, and transmission. It's pretty straightforward, actually.

Also, shorter distance or shorter time?

Just open http://facebook.com/ ? That design is being rolled out to everyone right now.

I would be surprised if they didn't reduce their prices, there have been too many competitive storage pricing reductions recently for them not to.

Dropbox doesn't pay the rates you see on the S3 pricing page. They currently pay lower than $0.03/GB.

Sure, that's my point exactly. It's not interesting to comment on trivial omissions they made. The shortness of their links is not among the difficult problems that an image hosting service must solve.

No one cares what her gender is. She doesn't work for GitHub, yet she believed that she had hiring and firing power at GitHub and had the ability to read private chat logs. That is wrong, and she doesn't belong near the company an

Yeah, it'll be interesting to hear GitHub's response if this aspect of the story is true. Those are some pretty serious allegations - influence over business and personnel decisions, reads Campfire chat logs, has spies within the

To be fair, their full-HTML image pages seem to load incredibly quickly and are very plain. And that second issue is barely worth mentioning, it's an incredibly easy fix.

The stuff I see here in the US is nothing compared to what happens in Europe -- people incite revolution, no one seems to know who's in charge, and governments attack their own people in broad daylight! Your generalization is as meanin

I'm surprised they went to those measures to get the user's phone number, it seems like there would be much simpler and more inconspicuous ways to do so on Android.

Surge pricing isn't going to look pretty either.

What the fuck, 115% CPU usage? https://www.dropbox.com/s/iyt8wxqxp6nvfgh/Screenshot%202014-... Can we stop making useless HTML5 animations that cause computer fans to turn on?

C'mon, this is Hacker News. Let's try to look beyond the current state of technology and think about its potential instead.

Your anecdote doesn't really change the statistics that Apple consistently presents at their events.

There is not a phone on the market that will project an interface over Bluetooth to a display in the car. What curve are they behind exactly?

You ignore the fact that this is meant to be controlled by Siri and, yes, tactile knobs and switches in your car. It says it right there on the linked page. Little to no distraction needed.

Apache, SSH, and/or rsync all support forms of that.

To be fair, an editor built on open web technologies could also be at the core of a dream to travel the world with a Chromebook.

Atom is not only not open source but ... Do you have a source for this? I'd be very disappointed to hear that if it were true. EDIT: It appears that this isn't true. From a GitHub employee in freenode/##atom: <

They literally built it to solve problems like this. From the project page, it was designed to provide "scalable cross-language services development".

Have they released any information on who they're partnering with yet?

Even when there were a few apps that didn't work well, in my experience at least, it was no one near as bad as W8's HiDPI features continue to be today. Apple did a really good job with that.
