The same argument can be made about the OS itself.

I think you're confusing linux (the kernel) with linux distributions (mostly lousy windows managers that run on linux). Let's not get into an OS war between us here, but looking at the changes over the last 15 years, it's cle

Your link shows us how the NSA would like you to secure your systems, not their love for hiding their exploits behind closed sourced code. No snark points needed here!

I'm sure that the NSA agrees with you.

How would we know unless we can read (and compile) the source code?

I'm looking forward to MS just dropping their OS entirely and using linux as their back-end. Basically, Microsoft might be better off creating their own linux distribution running a "microsoft windows" windows manager.

I could be wrong, but I think the previous poster was asking about getting API access to Watson itself, not the cooking site.

It is extremely easy for a government to convince people to use their new currency, they already do it just by enforcing tax payments be paid in their local fiat currencies.

Makerbot is the poster child of ripping off an open source project (reprap), then claiming the IP for itself, without giving back. Bre Pettis is a sellout.

If the windows source is not open, and we can't verify the builds we run, then how are we to know if the kernel and drivers, and userland apps are not tainted with NSA backdoors?

Or, if there is a large enough user base running some faulty logic, this could cause a big ugly fork in the blockchain. Not good.

The short answer - it's not accurate or reliable enough to do anything useful. It is just an expensive toy and worse, artificially difficult to hack. (the raw data is restricted, even to developers)

Unfortunately thalmic labs is very developer unfriendly, so while the Myo still might have potential, working with the closed source code makes it very difficult to expand the functionality, especially in linux. I suspect it's just an

But is it locked to Win 8? Can you easily install ubuntu on it, or is all the hardware drivers closed source?

Here is a link to Part 1: http://doc-ok.org/?p=1095 Doc-Ok (and others) are getting closer to reverse engineering the Oculus DK2 so hopefully we can have an open source Linux SDK soon. Maybe even before Facebook/Oculu

It's not necessary. The code is under 6MB. Remove the top level .git directory if the size bothers you.
