Agree. Whenever I come across a keynote of his, I tell myself "ok, just watching this for 10 min, then get back to real work", and then usually what happens is that I find myself 2 h later after the presentation, totally amazed by

On the bad side: Often times VCs demand board seats in a large round and put in terms in the contract so they can block acquisitions. The ballpark is that VCs would like to get back ~5x valuation. I don't know what the valuation in thi

Question with the risk of sounding very stupid: I get that you don't need to install anything on the controlling machine, but what about the controlled machine? I suppose you need to install some kind of software there? There needs

Knowing the Tetravue founders personally and having seen the tech years before any the funding came in I can say that their product is at least as real as their competitors'.

I didn't ask for a quote but if they just built it and sold it as a product I think they could make a whole bunch of money.

There are many magnificent tools that can analyse and visualise complex Git history, both GUI- and CLI-based. Just tell me one. All git tools I know do such a terrible job at this.

This is cool but for some reason (maybe reading too much HN!) I clicked and expected a demo or research paper about a Convolutional Neural Net (CNN) that you can feed lots of text and it would figure out the content and semantic relationshi

The title of this should be: Links for SW developers to look things up if needed The claim that SW developers should know all of these things is plain ridiculous. I'd consider myself a fairly successful hacker (sold my small startu

So much this. Another perfect example: https://databricks.com They just raised a $140m round of financing so apparently they have some good stuff going on. If you look at the website though: The Unified Analytics Platform. Acce

I understand it that $20m is just the minimum on strike three, not the upper bound (there is none I understand). For a company that has the means to spend $10m on software and services I'd think that 4% of global revenue would be clear

likely that developers will just focus on Apple's ARKit Most likely someone will just build and offer an abstraction layer on top of ARKit / ARCore and solve the problem that way.

by rsp1984 9y ago
The purpose of ARCore is for high-end Android devices to be competitive with the iPhone technologically, not to get on 2 billion devices, at least not now. Therefore it's fine that they get only 5% to start. I assume it's going to

I'm a bit skeptical about the performance to be honest: Great tracking for AR requires careful selection and tuning of cameras and IMUs (inertial measurement units -- essentially MEMS gyro + accelerometer). Apple has very tight control

If you look at the big European cities, real estate is expensive wherever there is an acceptable train or subway connection to the city and prices fall sharply outside of these zones. Self-driving cars will equalize this and it's a goo

I think the article misses the point. If we transfer the app store experience over to the real world who would pay $4 for a cup of coffee at your shop if there were coffee stands on the sidewalk literally every 100 meters offering excellent

The characteristic divide in dialects of German is the “Uerdingen” isogloss separating low forms of the language (where the pronoun “I” is pronounced “ik”) from central and high ones (where it is pronounced “ich”). No. Only Berlin /

Google is the largest ad company in the world. Selling ad space is what they do. What is Android naming if not one giant ad space? Long story short I'd be extremely surprised if Google didn't sell this.
