   I don't understand this "defeat device". What's the incentive for VW to do this? If the car can emit in the target range during a test, why not do it all time?

   Huge branding change. Gusto does seem to me like a much better name than ZenPayroll. Wonder how much they paid for gusto.com...

   If you tax it too much, I'd imagine that'd increase viability for a black market.

   Well done, YC. I believe we need more of these types of actions to act as a shot in the arm for diversity in the industry (and other industries, too).

    For real? What's your argument here, that it really might have been a bomb? We've already heard from both sides. Police stood by their actions.

    I'd think administrators would have a very different approach to disciplining a "bad office-supply purchasing" decision versus a well-thought out choice to use school equipment & electricity for non-work related causes.

    Really impressive. Must be pretty sensitive IR sensors to not have false detections when the marker/eraser gets close to the board but doesn't touch it. Any info on the hardware and software stack?

    A $125 billion market for big data solutions is NOT a sign that data is a liability. What is the value of that data? I'm also skeptical of the compliance/privacy argument. If you're collecting any data at all, it's a pot

    I'm concerned about durability. Is 3D touch passive sensing, or is the screen/glass actually moving? IIRC, Force Touch physically depresses (which explains why they didn't call it Force Touch).

    I'm worried about what the 3D Touch does to the ruggedness of the phone. With two toddlers, I don't think this phone would last 3 months in my house, even with a case. Or is 3D Touch somehow achieved with passive sensors?

    I think Resharper is in trouble. This licensing change, the new "refactoring" features in Visual Studio 2015, and the lower barrier for new tools to be created due to Roslyn are all going to have an impact.

    Interesting, it almost acts like a natural defense mechanism for the planet. The problem is, it's not enough. It's great if the CO2 increase has led to greater food production, but that increased foliage hasn't stopped or slo

    I like the approach of a small, fun task as "extra credit". But how do you smoothly bring that up in the interview? I guess if you're being asked about CSS technical details, you can mention you built this last night and ask

    "Eyebrows on fleek" is definitely most popular, but "uptime on fleek" is now one of my favorite phrases and will be used liberally.

    It was funny to see the slang word "fleek" in there, very unexpected.

    There are cold gas thrusters on top of the first stage that fire to keep its balance. If it lands in an uneven manner and starts to tip, those should be enough to maintain the landing. You can see them working in the video embedded in the l

    I wouldn't take that phrase too literally. I take it to mean that she wants them to actually land a rocket (not necessarily on all feet with no bounce). The other attempts were "landings", but they blew up. Bounce or no, if t

    I used Coder for Raspberry Pi [0] when teaching my eight year old nephew how to code and it worked very well. This seems like an easier-to-setup substitute, well done! Can't have enough tools like this for those learning. [0] https:&#
