Right? Except it's not a $500 paperweight. It's a $4,500 paperweight with an additional $500 a year overhead. Depending on how effective Project Tango is, this technology might be short lived. Maybe there's some manual labor

I am a little taken aback by their pricing strategy, or maybe I'm misunderstanding it. If you purchase this, you have to pay (at least) $500 a year, for hosting, and $20 per scan, if you scan more than (say) 6 times in a month?

I don't mean this to be glib, but there were already plenty of phones that could serve the internet, and various mobile tools. (in much the same way there were already plenty of computers.) Apple doesn't innovate by being first, t

1. I try to find out something that the person already understands, so I can frame my metaphors around that. 2. Maybe I'm projecting, but I was tinkering with computers for a long time before I started learning to program. To that end

Question: The split for existing shareholders is June 2nd. The stock starts trading with split values June 9th. What happens to trading from June 2nd-June 9th, during WWDC+ and after they announce their TV?

I hope someone writes a book about this one day -- the transition from being the underdog to the dominant player in the field. It seems like a very difficult transition, both for the contestant and the fan. While I understand where you&#x27

This whole thread is great, it's what happens when programmers interpret English. "Well, was the "Move your repositories..." within the implied closing '}" for the initial if statement or not?" :)

I -guess- each $300 backer could've received $150,000 of stock/cash... ...if this kickstarter happened 6 months from now, as an equity kickstarter. The 6 month number is sort of arbitrary, but the SEC is currently evaluating Regul

This is a clever solution to this problem, and there are instances where this could be helpful. However, if you happen to be attached to FCP, and have basic rhythm, you can perform a more controlled version of this process in either FCP7 or

I think it's a question of the tone with which he "didn't love." There's a difference between: "Another flat CSS theme for bootstrap? How many minutes did that take you?" and "There have been a number

I have a question though. Why is this manual? I don't know much about CV, but even from the a link I saw the other day about SimpleCV, it seems like there should be a way to at least filter out all of the quadrants that are simply ocea

minor pivot: One of the major pieces of advice for up and coming writers is to transcribe the books of an author you love/admire. Teaches you to learn their cadence, and, on some level, think about why they choose certain words. Now, t

I agree with Orlando. Half-agree with Gainesville. G'ville is fantastic if you have kids or are a kid. From 20-35 it's sort of a "Why am I here?" wasteland. Unless you REALLY love the Gators.

You don't actually have a problem with movies using formulas, you have a problem with them feeling formulaic. (Chances are.) Formulas exist because, when followed properly, they work. For the casual movie viewer, I'm sure that 9
