Which makes sense, considering this is part of their IoT program. Microsoft isn't porting Windows 10 to the Raspberry Pi so that kids can use it. They're doing it for developers who want something cheaper and more powerful than an

The last time I went to a RadioShack, I was looking for a resistor. I checked their website, which said my local store had it in stock. When I got there, I found the electronic components stuffed in a dark corner and the smaller components

How is Person of Interest propagandized? The first couple of seasons are about a secret government program designed to spy on everyone in the world, a black ops unit that assassinates American citizens, and a group of corrupt NYPD officers.

So poking fun at another country in a fictional movie is not OK, but compromising a company's network and leaking their internal communications is?

They didn't create the underlying technologies for containerization on Windows, either. Docker is just providing compatibility with the new container API in Windows Server so that you can use the same tools regardless of the OS. It

Both Crystal Cove and DK2 had the external IR LEDs, as well. On the DK2, they're just covered up by an IR-transparent material.

Very cool! Smooth as silk at 524K on my GeForce GTX 650 Ti and Chrome 37. 1M makes it a bit choppy, but still pleasant.

There are plenty of boards for that kind of application already (PC Engines APU[1], for example). That's not really what Edison is intended for. [1]: http://www.pcengines.ch/apu.htm

There's no video core, so no HDMI or even VGA output. Edison is designed for things like robotics and home automation. It's not a general-purpose x86 computer.

Android 4.0 introduced a new set of Dalvik instructions that supported larger methods IDs, but they were never used and were eventually removed. ART may have lifted the method limit, but I haven't seen any specific mention of it.

I absolutely love this kind of thing. I spent some time restoring an old 8mm projector so I could watch a few films I had found at an antique store. It felt wonderful to finally flip the switch and see the images flicker to life on my wall.

Just in case anyone else is wondering, this is indeed the same wheel that Andy promoted throughout season 7 of Showtime's "Weeds". I had no idea it was a real thing, so I assumed this was a joke at first.

CT was one of my biggest inspirations, as well. There are still copies of Blaxxun Community Server out there[1], so it would be great if someone could get their hands on the original world files somehow. I also tracked down the source code

With all due respect, it's a memory game, not a large-scale web application. I don't understand why "frameworks" are the answer to everything these days. There's nothing wrong with interacting directly with the DOM,
