You're right, it's not very green/minimalist, so the hipsters might frown upon it.

A low price would be crucial for the play button to really take off and become something bigger, badder than an interesting artistic experiment. $5 for a fully autonomous album anyone?

You may be dreaming, but you're not the only one. What would be the hurdles to get a startup running in China? The Great Firewall? It's a big country so it's always possible to find a place that fits your personal taste. For example Sanya i

AFAIK, Google does not do "smart" stuff in Ireland, they have a datacenter there but the software tricks are done in Zürich. According to their job offers anyway. I also visited an HP factory in Ireland, it makes printer cartridges but does

I don't understand why they have to put the silicon electrodes in contact with oxygen. Can't they just wire the silicon in the solar panel to copper wires and put them in contact with water and oxygen?

Funny, we must have commented at the same time! That says a lot about the startup scene here in Paris: only one co-working place!

Have you tried La Cantine? http://lacantine.org/ It's cosy, cheap (Not that kind of cheap, Paris' kind ;), and you can smoke outside.

Unless the big buyer is part of the scam. Also, there is an imbalance of neutrons when transmuting nickel to stable copper, I wonder where these come from. Unless they are using 62Ni... but its natural abundance is only 3%. And they mention

It smells like hoax, it looks like hoax... I can't help hoping for the best, with a heavy dose of skepticism. All we have to loose is some time.

You are right. Then it would be interesting to see how much of the memory is freed after all the clients disconnected.

Look at those memory usage graphs, does this means those servers are leaking memory? With the notable exception of nginx, of course.

Nice! Would you show us the source?

Do they _really_ need the rights to publish on my wall? Why? To advertise their product and go viral? But is the "like" button not enough? That's too intrusive for me I'm not allowing access to my facebook profile.

Airbnb does not need technical advice right now. What they want is cheap publicity, and it's exactly what they're getting with the actor.

You are right, I mistakenly thought that it was about a Golomb ruler, which it is not. EDIT: Found 7555794 solutions, took my 2GHz P4 30 minutes.

I made a python program to check every possible combination. It should run for 1 more hour and then should spit "no solution found". Is there any smarter way to do it (in software) without brute forcing?

I wonder, it must be a frequently flooded area, or else he would never have the time to build such a wall fast enough... Then it means he has to leave with a huge wall around his house all the time. Quite insane. But still, awesome. Reminds

"Going into physics was the biggest mistake of my life. I should've declared CS. I still wouldn't have any women, but at least I'd be rolling in cash." This advice should be told to all high schoolers. Well, at least male ones.

Well, I've worked for 1 year at HP phone support, especially on tapes. I assure you that tapes fail all the time. Their mechanical nature and the strain on their delicate components make them susceptible to failure. EDIT: Unless you're talk
