I think it'd be more interesting to have a timelapse addon to something like OhLife, add a webcam image to each diary entry and reconstruct them into videos as time goes on. (Except OhLife is email based, so it doesn't really work that seam

An edit-compile-test cycle of several minutes + a hang or so quickly eats up the days. That's why the micros are an interesting option, they're running on real hardware but can be flashed in seconds and debugged in realtime with a JTAG ca

The title reminded me of a hilarious video from some years ago, "Heap of trouble". "Nine naked men walking down the road would cause a heap of trouble" indeed :) Crappy quality: http://www.myvideo.de/watch/4293877/Heap_of_Trouble Donate-t

If I were to write a basic OS, I'd do it for one of the microcontroller kits that are available, e.g. http://www.pjrc.com/teensy/ or something similar with an ARM7 cpu. Having a cleaner CPU architecture than x86 is bound to save a lot of

Sure, but at least then I've done what I can on my end and can blame any remaining problems on my ISP with a bit more confidence :)

Tracking movement in 3D using dead reckoning is apparently very inaccurate, with the iPhone sensors I wouldn't expect it to be accurate for more than a few seconds at best. I visited a startup working on the problem a few years ago, and the

Adding a bit of info about what I'd need to implement on my end would be useful. I'm assuming that this will fetch a HTTP URL once per "hit"?

Of course, but with a bit of research it might be a better long term alternative; suppressing the immune system isn't something that'll ensure longevity.

Going by that logic, to "effectively" ban the book while not "technically" banning it, the govt just needs to pursue the top few channels to stop carrying it. Book will be effectively unavailable and everyone's conscience will be clean. H

Couldn't they put the original bone marrow in a box somewhere, wait until the borrowed marrow has done it's job and then replace the original one, to not have to take immunosuppressants?

According to the web, "The depth sensor uses a monochrome image sensor. Looking at the signals from the sensor, resolution appears to be 1200x960 pixels at a framerate of 30Hz." It would perhaps be better to be able to run it at a lower res

It doesn't really matter, since it's easier to fix four browsers under active development than it is to fix a myriad of old firewalls and proxies.

A better way to show Mastercard that you don't like what they're doing would be to cancel your Mastercard and/or stop accepting MC payments.

Am I the only one who thinks that basing this on Bittorrent seems a tad bit like "when you have a hammer…"?

It'd need to be a symmetric function that appears at least pseudo-random, any suggestions for suitable candidates? But I'd probably have a database with assorted data about the production anyway, so adding a random serial number wouldn't ma

When I start building stuff, I'm going to make the serial number random and keep a database with serial<>manufacturing data. All to keep my Evil Competitors from gleaning any useful information!

Not odd at all. There's probably a slight difference in the number of LACK tables built vs these prints…

Isn't the name a bit of a problem?

I'd guess that the NAT+NAT problem is more common than the enterprise variant, since very few companies other than enterprises have more than a few IPs.
809.
by m_eiman 16y ago
That works until you're sitting behind another NAT that uses the same internal IP range as the one you connect to over VPN - which is very likely since everyone uses 192.168.0.0/24.
