I think it's the output. Also, the timing is relevant as the project documentation keeps talking about distributed compiling etc. I think that's how the sentence was meant: we can compile 1GB in 15 minutes (speed).

Too bad it only shows how fast it cools, but not how much longer it'll retain that temperature! Or is there a different video for that?

These days, rather than figuring out exactly which commands and which params to run, it's faster for me to just run it through a simple Pig [1] script and be done with it. [1] http://pig.apache.org/

I actually think it would lower the cognitive burden: often enough I want to share something geeky, but then need to weigh that off against the non-tech followers (= increased friction). No idea if the whole circles concept will succeed tho

I don't understand? I don't like Apple's geographically segmented marketplace either, but in the end it's not too big a problem to get around.

Which is fine, as long as one doesn't display links to a lot of different users on one page (like an avatar alongside comments, hosted on the <user>.site.tld domain). As long as all those different user domains don't appear on one p

Yes, loved the Matrix representation myself too. But then again, look at the Kill Bill one. It's not as "yellow" as I associate with the movie (I think the packaging gives me that "yellow feeling"). But then, there is this one lonesome yell

In dutch "@" is pronounced as "apestaartje" which means literally "monkey tail". An overview of the literal meaning of @ in different languages can be found in: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/At_sign#.22Commercial_at.22_in_... According to

I read your comment and all I could think was "See? It happens to other people, too!" :-) (I'm in Italy too btw)

"Since when has the thermal performance of a light bulb been undocumented and unreliable?" By making assumptions as to what type of a light bulb it is (which in this setting one could not know beforehand). F.ex. LEDs give off very little he

It would be so cool if Google could engineer that process the other way around. Instead of me giving Google my number, why can I not dial into a phone number of Google (with my own number hidden). I think that would a) get more friction you

How about starting with the application/business metrics first (as those are presumably easier to articulate). As things fail over time move down the stack (infra/system) to get earlier warnings?

I agree that it's probably a minor issue. But consider that 2) could be hacked by someone that's not 3).

While it's relatively easy to comment on the stuff that gets to the homepage that shouldn't be there, the actual stories/discussion that don't make it there are a loss to our community. F.ex. I found the 7 comments and a brief appearance o

Interesting, it hints at some "machine learning"/"behavioural targeting" on Google's end then.

Any chance on a nice Demo video? With the App costing 10 bucks, it'll be nice to see it in action before moving in for the buy!

From personal experience (lived in 3 Just-eat.com "countries") I would say Denmark is the biggest. In the cities, there's a really high coverage of restaurants -- and not just fast-food either. The problem for restaurants is pretty interest

This is essentially Just-eat.com, minus the mobile txt messaging. Depending on the geography here in Europe it's wildly successful.

It's a bit unhandy to not use the build in contact finder. Theirs doesn't filter well. Also, when I need to fill out my phone number, just let me pick "me" from my contact list, easier.
