This morning was real confusing. Couldn't find any status pages showing disruption, users couldn't log into the system but could use it if they were already logged in. Ran around like a headless chicken until I spotted this and a

This is brilliant. I'll bet most, if not all of the best sysadmins in the world would be in utter befuddlement if someone in their office was using a simple "idle" iphone as a keylogger. It's so out there that it'll

Why would this be hard to spoof? What's required here? Multiple Facebook accounts and a quick script?

I wasn't aware you COULD be downvoted on HN? Is it just my Tampermonkey script hiding the downvote button or something?

If this can match spotify's catalog any time soon, AND be available as an app or (usable) mobile site, ad free: RIP music services. This is an enticing offer for those on the fence about prime, given that spotify premium is $120 a year

It's not about disruption so much as it is about choice. Taxis should not be some ultra-regulated industry, and if it is, it shouldn't be near IMPOSSIBLE (read: ultra-expensive) to be part of that regulated sector. Nowadays, it&#x

Lyft, Uber, and their likeness are going to be huge. Legislation permitting, I can't see many standard taxi companies surviving for much longer.

Well, it's probably a little more complicated than that. Yes, if we define any actions taken by humans as "artificial", then it's "un-natural". BUT, putting selective pressure on a plant to be more delicious an

You're correct. I mixed up the first sentence with the next. But it seems to be an IPS, of some sort: "The P2815Q packs an IPS LED display will have a full 3840 x 2160 4K resolution. It launches globally on January 23. Dell hasn’t

Right, Go is a language. It does have a decent (built in) HTTP library, and is actually pretty fast as a webserver in itself. On the more conventionally robust framework end of things, I suppose Revel/Falcore would be a more appropriat

I've been following these for most of the rounds, and Go has been improving impressively. Whether that's because of improvements in the language itself or a more zealous crowd sending pull requests, I don't know, but it made
