Ouch, hopefully doesn't turn into blaster 2.0. These days you're just asking for trouble if port 80 is open and you don't have a need for it, though.

Ah, I wonder why doesn't the original project just fold up and point people at the currently maintained version. I'd still be very nervous about trusting my network to a random fork of mostly unmaintained software. At least with

Isn't Tomato way out of date? Wikipedia shows the last stable release was almost 5 years ago, and the website shows no dates on its releases (not a good sign). I ran Tomato for a long time and loved it, but I just got too nervous run

Yeah that looks like a great start, especially with how the NTSC signal is generated and interpreted. I don't see much around simulating the electron beam and its interaction with the phosphors and front of the tube though. I imagine

I love these CRT shaders but have always wondered, has anyone thought about or worked on a physically accurate simulation of a CRT television? Something that takes a framebuffer as input and simulates the electric signals that control the

Act now since big V8s are kind of going out of style. BMW is dropping the V8 from its new M3 and going to a turbo I6, Cadillac's new full-size will have a twin turbo V6 instead of a V8, Mercedes is shrinking the size of its turbo V8 f

See Ben from the Raspberry Pi foundation's response here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8983801 Sadly there really hasn't been any update or good info on what Win 10 on the Pi 2 will be yet.

by tdicola 12y ago
No, there's a lot of confusion from bad messaging with the Pi 2 and Windows 10 announcement. By all reports Win 10 on the Pi 2 is a system to run services that have no GUI, desktop, or other UI.

Wow this looks great, thanks for releasing it! Nice to see even 'simple' stuff like this that can help people who aren't running at Netflix scale is still released.

Looking forward to hearing more detail about how this works in the near future. I am curious though what are the plans to orchestrate and pull together multiple containers into an application, like Kubernetes, Mesos, CoreOS, etc? Is that

This is the coolest thing I've seen all year, way to go to everyone involved!

avr-gcc libc has an implementation of floating point math but it's not accelerated at all by the AVR hardware (i.e. there is no FPU). Most Arduino boards (the Uno) are 16mhz with only 2kb of memory, so running a full FFT is possible b

Congrats to the team! Interesting to see a big focus on Kubernetes going forward--doesn't CoreOS kind of compete with Kubernetes? (even though Kubernetes builds on CoreOS tools like etcd)

I remember when Ara was first announced that it was in a special Google program where it basically has to have results in a year or they shut it down. I'd love to know how it's tracking in that and if it looks like it will live o

I'd love to hear a followup and if this worked out for them or ended up being more trouble than it was worth. I remember at the time when it came out being a bit skeptical about the process. edit: Although skimming the comments, maybe

Wow that's a great way to describe it. Funny because all the workflow and reporting stuff I've done since then has been in python and has been an absolute joy & breeze to build compared to powershell.

by tdicola 12y ago
Unfortunately in practice I've found powershell hasn't been much of a panacea. You give up all the problems of parsing text, but now have new problems dealing with tools that don't output objects and getting them to do so. I

Where are the UML diagrams and how many sprints will it take to implement all the tools? Has an architect approved all the design patterns that will be used to implement them? On a serious note though, wouldn't XML sed and awk just be

The pilot. I doubt fighter pilots make $400k/year. Maybe they need to ask for a raise...

It's interesting to me that about 5 years ago John Carmack was talking up game streaming quite a bit in his annual QuakeCon talk. From what I remember he was pretty confident it would be the future of gaming at the time. However I&#x

That's more up to your application layer to define. Everything has a cost so forcing a CRC in the transport layer might not be good for things that need to be fast and don't care about potential errors. If you need reliable tran

Median home price in SF is $1m and the down payment on a mortgage is 20%, so do the math and there are easily lots of people building up or who have built up a significant nest egg of savings.

I'm with you, IMHO this is a 'jump the shark' moment. Enjoy the $12m while you have it!

The 2015 Dell XPS 13 sputnik edition is similar and will have full support for Ubuntu 14.04 LTS out of the box. It's still in the last stages of development & bug fixing from what I understand though: http://en.communit
