I realize this is seemingly more gadgets than hacking news, but not for me. The Aibo, the goofy, expensive toy that Sony discontinued in 2006, was my introduction to hacking in college. For two years, I hacked this thing with a fury I'd n

Yeah, I like that: 'Constant Gratification'. I think that is in essence what keeps coders going.

What lures me to programming is an obsession with progress. While I've learned to appreciate the process of programming, the elegance of properly done code, and the seeming lack of limitations, seeing day-to-day, week-to-week, yearly progr

I think the most important thing Blake mentions here is the amount of customization required per network. Obviously, each system is not the same: they have different features, conventions, permissions, etc. But it'll be interesting to see

I think the trick here is not the technology or the pricing: appealing interfaces and lower prices are doable. I think what's challenging about this is the barrier to entry to becoming a player in this space. That is, how do you get races

Interesting on the third co-founder advice... does anyone else have a perspective on this?

I'm for it! We've already taken the plunge and now are settled in MV. It's nice out here. Ran into the fuzzwich guys yesterday. Been to SuperHappyDevHouse and Googleplex. Come on out!

Here's something I thought of today whilst reading the gripes of reddit: their main issue can't be the community, but instead the amount of power they give individuals within the community. Reddit could look to Wikipedia of all places and

Here's one I'm dying to implement: user-generated reporting website for the wait times on the rides at Disneyland. I swear Disney distorts these for easier crowd control.

Hey man, thanks a lot for the overview. This is some of the best information I've gotten yet. We've seen a bunch of places in Palo Alto and Mountain View that we could see ourselves living in. We've walked around Castro and University A

Hey man! Thanks a lot. This is all great stuff. We actually visited a place very near 'apartment city' today. Not bad. I like MV a lot, despite it being quiet. I figure we can also go into the city and, without distractions, work is bound

Sebastian Thrun is a rockstar in the AI world. He's the guy that won the DARPA Grand Challenge. I got to see him speak at a conference last year. It only strikes me odd that he would found a company doing non-AI stuff. Ah, maybe this is

Is this really 'leapfrogging' reliable services that offer 2+gigs for space? I don't know about other people's email usages, but gmail has a ceiling I will not be sneaking up on anytime soon. I guess it is nice to know that you do have un

Thankfully I don't make them. I'm involved in the RoboCup project: www.robocup.org. But I'm in a 'league' where software is king and hardware is standard: the 4 Legged League. Here's the link: http://www.tzi.de/4legged/ But if you're into

It might be interesting to try a decay function on the leader board. Now, it's probably not cool to take away karma points, but it would reward activity. Plus, it'll get around the issue of single posters who post a single ridiculously p
