I'm not entirely sure, but yesterday I observed some vending machines at a local university that worked with student IDs. The machines had a small antenna encased in the drink display, so presumably that model broadcast payment and&#x2

The odd thing to me about Japan's vending machine situation is that it's largely drinks. Not much in the way of the snack vending machines that one frequently encounters in the U.S. I suppose it's probably due to the Japanese

It's really like that. In the countryside, you'll occasionally see rice fields with small walkways in between them in a + configuration with a vending machine hanging out in the middle. Presumably for the farmers to get something

I actually just paid real attention to this pointing technique on my way home today for the first time. This isn't just a puff piece for a technique that only a few workers do.

It appears that organisation is named Gravitational, and the project name is Teleport. I don't think there's much basis for this critique aside from the poor title choice.

So the latest AMD cores seem like they might be more competitive... does anyone know which AMD processors are likely to support ECC memory? My one big gripe with Intel CPUs is that they currently only support ECC memory for non-consumer chi

Bootstrap was not made by GitHub. You're thinking of Twitter there.

Very clever. Would be interesting if you could map the text input to words that he's said contiguously in real life. My first test was typing in "I never said that.", and it would have been great if it actually pulled a clip

At the risk of oversimplifying: Why would anyone expect Hayao Miyazaki to be interested in programatically generated walking algorithms for 3d zombies? That seems so far outside of the realm of anything that Miyazaki has worked on that expe

Last time I looked, RSS and Atom didn’t have pagination support and many RSS feeds only show the most recent N items. I'd say solving that issue to make feeds more browseable would be a significant improvement for the way that I want t

Cash-based for consumer payments (especially in the countryside). Business-level payments and cities have much more extensive credit card support, and it's only continuing to become a more common payment method.

This is neat, but the tags don't make for a great first impression. #gore, #violence, #beating, #shot to death. It's all well and good if people are into that, but probably a turnoff to the average user that comes across the site.

The Haskell one is a bit off, honestly. Web development is one of Haskell's stronger areas, and it doesn't event rank for that at all.

Yeah, sorry for not addressing that. I guess what I'm getting at is that I don't agree with the fundamental premise of the article. I don't really see "a large enough subset of the Haskell community never reaches that st

I think you're equally missing the point– for serious Haskell programmers, using a monad to structure computation for a CRUD app is nothing to write home about. Having personally written quite a lot of CRUD code with Haskell, I have ne

It's worth noting that it was written quite a while ago, so while it's still a great book, there are portions that have a wee bit of code rot. In the event that one of those sections trips you up, I'd encourage you to visit t

I'm using it with pretty good results so far. I had to stop using Emacs for a long time because I was developing a case of Emacs pinky, but I can appreciate that it does a lot more out of the box. After switching to Vim, I really came

I noticed that it says "the first shading language" to be supported will be GLSL. Does that imply that there will be a new shading language or extensible shading language facilities?

Anyone else remember the days when having your SVN server go down meant that you more or less had to wait until the server came back up before you could get back to doing things? (if you wanted a nice atomic commit). Let's not forget p

Very cool, but seems like it would be nice to have the hardening steps documented outside of code too (for those of us with more exotic provisioning tastes).
