I'm sure this will have an age range of like 8 years old and up where chewing on random things is less of a problem.

The most interesting thing about this in my opinion is that their software is only for iOS and Android, at least for now. No Windows/desktop option. Makes total sense IMHO.

Sugar, corn, carbohydrates and bad science from folks like Ancel Keys ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ancel_Keys ). Look at something like a fruit juice from Odwalla, it says 'Super Food' on the label so it mus

Ouch, good question. Although the building they want to lease in is part of a major development happening in Kirkland over the next few years. It will be full of other businesses and retail, so not just Tableau. It's also right acro

Be careful, the files are CC licensed but the actual fonts are still copyright whoever/whatever created them. They didn't redraw or create new fonts here, they ripped out the old fonts from the systems that used them and converte

Is there a list of new features in Jekyll 3 vs. 2? I looked at Jekyll's docs and can't seem to find anything. It has a nice guide of how to move from 2 to 3, but is there any succinct list of what new stuff you can do in 3, if a

For power you could use a small nuclear reactor, just like submarines and aircraft carriers. I've always thought it would be a fun exercise to take a decommissioned nuclear submarine and turn it into a floating datacenter.

Earn it, inherit it, or win the lottery. Does it really matter what they did to acquire it?

If it's just a static blog why even run a full on database engine, etc? A static site generator + CDN would handle huge amounts of loads without breaking a sweat.

Yeah 80khz should be no problem. Even in Linux if you access the Pi's GPIO registers directly you can toggle pins in a tight loop at around 1-2mhz. As others mentioned though you might look at a small microcontroller though since the

Put things in your front pockets. If you're in a really suspicious area (like traveling through tourist traps abroad) use a hidden body wallet / money belt (they're like a small fanny pack that ties around your stomach under

Sure you aren't thinking of the Model A and Zero? The B and B+ have a USB hub & ethernet adapter, but no OTG or USB device ports exposed. It's kind of tricky to use the A and Zero's USB device port but people have been

Don't forget the BSP tree, that's what really made Doom work and be playable with huge maps on a 386 & 486. By cutting the game map into sections in front and behind the player it could very quickly figure out a small set of

The intense cold war of the 50's and 60's ended and the cost couldn't be justified. Make no mistake, if there wasn't the constant fear that our enemy would use space to drop nukes on our head we never would have made it

I have pre check with the global entry program and was 'randomly selected' to go through a body scanner on a recent trip, so it can happen. Most of the time pre check just goes through a simple metal detector though.

I'm more questioning the flow of researcher reports vulnerability, company awards bounty, researcher disputes bounty value, CSO of company contacts CEO of researcher's company. Is that normal escalation procedure?

Thanks for the response, but why did you start by contacting the CEO of Synack instead of the researcher directly?

Perhaps there were contracts with manufacturers that would have been more expensive to back out of at the last minute. It's also hugely demoralizing to a team to work on something for a couple years and then see it never ship because

Very cool. One thing that isn't clear, is this only with Chromecast Audio players or does it work with normal Chromecasts too? What about the older first generation Chromecasts?

Making just shy of $100k in Seattle could be tricky to build up a lot of savings and live in a desired/fancy area with an expensive car. The median home price is well north of $500-600k.

There were subsidized smartphones well before The iPhone did it. I had a T-Mobile Dash that ran Windows Phone 5 in 2006 and it only cost $150 or so with 2 year contract. Compared to the iPhone it was a joke--clunky interface stuck in the

On a normal Pi the red light comes on when there is 5v and the green light flashes during disk activity like booting, I would bet the zero is similar. Don't use a cheap phone charger, use a good quality 1-2 amp power supply. Also be
