Magento code in general is of very dubious quality. I once ran a quick static analysis on it and found some ridiculous results: https://twitter.com/jlas_/status/391615992473722880

How would someone even go about figuring this out? Maybe Tupper was incredibly bored?

Really cool, the web interface needs work, but the idea is great.

I think the interesting part here is that it seems Watson is making recipe suggestions based on Machine Learning (read: statistical) analysis of other recipes.

Scraping in Node.js is just not worth it. IMHO the asynchronicity really gets in the way of building a scraper.

Interesting tidbit: it looks like the über folks acquired the http://www.uber.nyc domain recently. The .nyc domain actually started registering this year and the auction for uber.nyc (which I was a part of) ended at $3,200. I wa

Cool. It seems to satisfy the A & D of the ACID properties [1]. The C is not-applicable as there isn't a notion of schema or constraints [2]. [1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ACID [2] http://en.wiki

The Writer's Almanac had a wonderful podcast on Updike a few years back [1]. It featured his poem "The Blessing"—one of my favorites. [1] http://writersalmanac.publicradio.org/index.php?date=2009/03...

Besides space I think having two radars might cause interference that would be difficult to filter out.

Another interesting aspect is the Lock-On detection of the enemy aircraft. Aircraft are able to identify when they're being tracked by other aircraft or homing missles. [1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radar_warnin

Initial trigger has a noticeable lag until the timer starts. Otherwise, beautiful interface & the full screen feature is pretty neat.

Some of these services definitely draw from the area of Natural Language Processing [1] and Semantic Analysis [2] [1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_language_processing [2] http://en.wikipedia.org&#x2F

I'm wondering what their killer feature is. On the whole their product looks very similar to New Relic's Insights product ( http://newrelic.com/insights ).

i.e. when people start realizing that frivolous social media start-ups provide way less value then their inordinate valuations and the bubble bursts.

I'd go with Facebook, I imagine they're offering more money anyway. Facebook is a household name, has better perks last time I checked, and more offices. Palantir looks hip but the work they do is very boring on the Forward-Deploy

I guess one can ask if a tweet is a good measure of public perception in the first place.

Anyone else annoyed by the claim that the general mood being summed up by a tweet calling Uber “price-gouging assholes.” links to a tweet with underwhelming retweets and favorites? (1 and 2, respectively)

Not sure exactly what you're trying to say here but there are plenty of open source C compilers [1], including GCC, which allow anyone to fix bugs as they see fit. To your second point about not restarting a long running web applicatio
