The questions he posed are legitimate given his final statement. Converting legacy cars to electric is a waste of time and money. Unless of course, your definition of "feasible" and "make sense" is different than mine. O

You missed an additional subset of users. I live in an old neighborhood that experiences power outages and fluctuations once or twice a year. This is fantastic and something I will be installing as soon as I can. So older neighborhoods, rur

Among other comments here, there is the question of why? Why does a civilization need to expand? Why should it? We can already see in our world where the birthrates start to decline in societies that have a certain level of technology and q

I'd say after 7 years as a professional software engineer. I had never had to do anything harder in an interview than show up. The companies I applied too had prior coworkers and managers who wanted me on their teams. Then I ended up i

You read his statement different then I did. He's not saying that people who makes these statements be labelled as sex offenders. He's saying that people who make these statements be brought to task. If a law has been violated, th

It all depends on the hooks that Mozilla provides to the JavaScript developers. These hooks are the way that the web page can interact with the phones built in hardware. If these API's are sufficient then there is no reason that these

Every so often, there's an article on HN promoting the concept that everyone should learn to code. I feel the same way about programming languages, that every developer should write a language. It doesn't need to be a great langua

I concur with this assessment. There are people outside of silicon valley who care about silicon valley. Much like there are a ton of people who watch reality tv and think that it's real. Since this is HN there are probably a larger th

It's quite possible. I would keep an eye open at http://www.sas.com/en_us/careers.html#openings However the organizations that would be interested in your skills, which is our R&D group, is separate from mine.

Nice to hear that they are having a positive impact. Sling is one of the most compelling pieces of software that I've worked with in a long time. It's odd that AEM/CQ5 being as big and as disruptive as it is, doesn't get

Okay, it's on the East Coast instead of the west. But SAS is one of the best places to work for in the world. Some of the perks that seem applicable to you: * 7 hour work day * Flexible work schedules * Everyone has a private office *

Understanding that this is conjecture, I'm wondering if the list of games that have steam controller configurations are indicators of games that they are planning on running directly on the steam box itself. i.e. running native on linu

Popular languages are always the focus of criticism. The more popular the language is, in terms of usage, the easier it is to find examples that you can disparage. Here are some of the larger websites and what they use http://en.

That's a hard question to answer. There were a combination of motives and opportunities. Motives were things like a strong desire to prove myself combined with an anger at the lob sided salaries. Opportunities were a major application that
