Yes you picked one of the pieces that made me feel that way the most. Others are Do not try hard -> for things to be easy (or look effortless) you have to try hard first for quite a while. Do not ever work -> interest always fades a

Seems like the body and panels are 3D printed but no words on the engine. I believe 3D printing would allow entirely new types of engines which couldn't be assembled from separately manufactured parts.

I liked it but somehow I think its because this advice sounds more like things I would like to believe to be true.

Just looked a little at the documentation. It seems like its an engine for stream processing. Think of it of data mining up front. You figure out what information you want and collect it as the data comes in instead of storing all the data

The comments about Portland OR really remind me of my own experience with spending time there. It really was the first time I was visiting a place and think "I'd really like to live here!". What really sold me was the quality of the food a

I think the wandering naive tourist is more likely to get upset or be overly watchful than the violent fundamentalist who has been trained for that moment.

Well I tend to believe the really poorest people are more affected by the current dumping of the excess produce than the poor americans you refer to would ever be affected.

Saying "by next year" and "may have already won the developers battle" in the same paragraph really flags this as wishful marketing. Plus there is a lot more to wooing developers than just toolkits. But Qt is still something I enjoy using.

The title was promising but I found the point of the post moot. The title made me think about the fact that a large segment of the market tends to categorize developers on the tools they use rather than the things they build.

Sadly I have often seen the type of people mentioned in the article as the one considered "entrepreneurs" and are often the ones saying we need more entrepreneurs. When I was a teen, its all I saw and developed a strong aversion with all th

You complain about educated people just wanting a job instead of striking it on their own and in the same post scoff liberal majors because they can't get a job out of college. What is the point? In many cases education requires far more re

The Mac I have is in the living room for family use so I have not "worked" a lot on it. I didn't use much of the default tools and relied more on macports for unix stuff. I was asking because I am considering a Mac to replace the windows la

You mean un-unix or un-linux? Which parts?

As you probably know, Martin Krzywinski is also the author of the Circos software. Circos has been in development for much longer and addressed different kinds of issues.

I would be even more interested in tools that generate Raphael Js code. I didn't have as much success as I hoped turning svg to Raphael.

Oh... That is not what I had imagined as "motorized". I was dreaming of a desk that follows you around.

It exists? I've seen standing desks but not motorized standing desks.

I agree that it can be a competitive advantage but it is rarely because of the technology itself, it is because of the change in business it enables. But there a lot of software used in an enterprise that is not a competitive advantage. You

I don't really understand how adding a scheduler was that much of an effort. Couldn't something based on cron work, the code from the Start button the indonesians use is probably similar to what is necessary for that job. There are certainl

This is not really the same thing. Ballmer was answering a question from someone in the audience. The context and amount of preparation is certainly different. You would think he has some good clear prepared statements on a subject like the

Many commercial databases are good and work very well. The difference is when you are stuck with a small ridiculous problem and are cash-strapped and in a hurry. Google searches turn up far many more results for solutions to OS software pro

Like everyone on HN I am annoyed disappointed by the natural tendency of online comments to give way to trolls. This article just seemed like a very classy response to troll comments.

I'd rather find a way to hook a new monitor for my old NeXT Turbo Station. The old one is busted. I could still be fun to do tough. there are a few pieces of NeXT software I'd like to look at again for inspiration.

The article is quite light so far. I am sure it brings other improvements than just a reduced file size. I would hope that at least some features of JPEG2000 would make it in this format. Maybe also a convenient way to pack several images i

You should read PGs essays if you haven't done so yet. He did write about the topic longer and better than I could in this post. I'll just say that the difference in terms of what your lifestyle looks like is not as clear cut as you may thi
