No offence, but it seems like an WYSIWYG editor for people that are already quite familiar with html?

I've had wonderful experiences with the BBB when wronged by various companies. Although comcast might certainly be an exception to that, everybody already knows they have crap customer service.

A la carte is generally not described as running around searching 2-3 totally independent services, dealing with 2-3 different UI's, business models, etc, but having the ability to get discrete packages from a single provider which exp

Yeah, I don't use vim , but Emacs, so that generalization is totally off.

What amazingly useful logic. Why didn't somebody think of that before. We can employ in all sorts of use cases: * Solve global hunger problems? Give starving people more food. * End crime? Just everybody stop committing crimes. * Debil

My experiences with the educational outlook on video game programming is very different. I put together a video game programming club for the junior high school my nephew was in. The response was phenomenal. The teachers loved it, the princ

The same fundamental equation applies to both domains: Software engineering hours are expensive and hardware is cheap. I just ordered a video card with 24 gig of ram. Well, calling it a video card is not quite right as it's a K80 Nvidi

Schemas are anything but a free lunch. It has been said that the limit of the ratio of (creating, groking, interacting with) the hundreds to thousands of XML schemas/documents that invariably creep up in the average large-scale-XML-usi

> In that 16 years, we got new (and mostly unnecessary) layers of abstraction on what existed previously. I don't know about you, but I'd much rather write a simple web service application in python than in assembly.

I know many here know this already but I'll say it anyway since I ran into people with a misconception related to this: the particular misidentifications are specific to the algorithm and training set used, it's not like all compu

Well, my company uses ROS for two different robotic systems currently in production. We use ros serialization quite intensively and I would have to say it "works fine". I previously came from a more enterprise-centered environment

Yes, it has lane assist(this is resistive rather than active, it stiffens the steering wheel making it harder to move in a direction that leaves the lane, rather that correcting coarse actively), active breaking (with adaptive cruise contro

Yeah, there are some COTS parts available for various autonomous driving functionality. My Ford fusion does pretty much all of the above, and I do not think Ford implemented everything themselves, and the sensors look very similar to variou

What would be the advantage of Artoo vs something like ROS? ROS has some pretty significant infrastructure laid down, and has bindings for C and python. It probably wouldn't even be too hard to create a Ruby binding if Ruby is your thi

That chance of a 1-in-a-x_amount_of_time event happening does not change right after it happens, at least in a strictly statistical since. Baring any actual physical factors, likelihood of such an event is the same every day.

Is that really the reason why? I'm pretty sure you would get somebody's age, race and gender just by reading their resume/CV, which most job boards allow potential hiring companies to peruse.
