Seriously. I've never seen as many bentley's as I have in the parking garages on Sand Hill Road.

If you are a siggraph member (I think it's $50 a year or so) you can stream the talks for free.

I swear this is a dupe.... did the already submitted articles list get reset when we turned into "hacker news"?

by far33d 19y ago
Google answers, but restricted to an established community (like ycnews) would be even more useful.

His phone number is up there. Maybe someone should kindly tell him that plagiarism isn't very innovative.

For once, myname, I'm actually going to agree with you. Blogging is, on the side of techcrunch, basically the equivalent of rewriting a press release (ok ok, sometimes he does some editorializing and "reporting" but not usually). On the sid

Yes, but who's going to pay the intrepid journalists to go out to Iraq? That's the part of the model that I can't quite figure out yet. If the AP can't sell their content, who's reporting in Angola? Who's covering the un-sexy stuff in Nevad

This is damning analysis, and, I think, too conservative - I think the real picture is worse for the NYT. But, what should we, as a society, do about it? While blogs and other citizen journalism have actually helped journalism, there is st

I think this would actually be really interesting for Google StreetView.

I saw this guy at Siggraph.. very cool. His other paper (Photo Clip Art http://graphics.cs.cmu.edu/projects/photoclipart/ ) was also pretty awesome.

They have some strange old media connections (clear channel and ticketmaster) that will probably be both helpful and destructive.

Yes, but only a single display. It's interesting because this hole in the market has pushed businesses to do exactly what you say - laptops as the main dev machines.

I've got lots of ideas on some cool ways to do keyframing and animation for non-animators... anticipating the next product.

by far33d 19y ago
While live record is a great way to get it out there... keyframe based animation (even without explicit timing spline control) would really help.

by far33d 19y ago
Wow. This is great. I was just (yesterday) thinking about how there are no user accessible animation tools out there. There's a long way to go, but this is a wonderful start. Congrats.

Paul, I just heard a great NPR story about a power company that is doing just this: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=1247674...

Note that they use "average" instead of median. I'm sure more super-rich people read it than super-poor people, so this average is a bit aliased.

That's not true at all. Look at the WSJ versus your local paper. In the WSJ they advertise Bentleys. In your local paper they advertise the local sporting goods store. Ads don't need to be relevant to content. That's the ultimate mistake w

Often, it looks like the last proponent of Graham left in the finance world is Warren Buffett.

Well, sort of true: http://ycombinator.com/announcingnews.html Yes, because of reddit. Yes, because of Arc. But mostly because it's a good way to learn about people.

Which is, I imagine, exactly why you can't downmod replies to your own comments.

You should downmod the comments, not the person. What's happening here is that troll decides he doesn't like startupgeek, so troll goes to the threads page for startupgeek and downmods every single comment on there. If you think someone s
