I guess it depends what country you're currently in. I know some chinese developers would prefer some chinese characters because it happens to be the ones available on their keyboard.

So I live in rent controlled area in the bay area where I pay around $1500 for a 2 bedroom. Using this calculator, it seems like buying almost any kind of home in the bay area would be a very bad decision.

Not sure I understand your post. I use vim everyday with copy & paste on my mac. Maybe the commands are slightly different than when ssh'ed into some box, but us vim users are capable of remembering many obscure keystrokes.

Yeah, I don't like the trend of eye-catching false advertisements either. In a way, this resembles those infomercials that give you a bunch of random stuff along with the core product and then claim that it's a $500 value that yo

This must suck for any startup operating out of the EU. Would this mean that anyone can request anything to be removed from the internet if the company operates out of the EU? It's hard to determine if a given piece of information is

Not just that, the antennae are located closer to the transmission source so you don't need your own antenna on some rooftop. Quality is higher since it just gets streamed to your location. It's kind of like having an antenna on

Unfortunately the tech sector is fairly well paid so we are the least likely to move since we will gain the least from a move, whereas middle-income wage earners will gain the most from a move since they'll be able to afford rental uni

That title would still be inaccurate because it would imply that Apple is currently funding IV, and will not increase their funding. Just because Apple gave them money in the past doesn't mean they are continuing to fund them either.

I fail to see similarities between boosted's logo and e-go's logo. They are so incredibly different. E-go's logo looks more similar to ubuntu's logo, so one could argue that boosted borrowed their style from ubuntu?

I don't think boosted invented their style of board. I've seen many long boards that have their exact style. I guess if you've only seen boosted first, you'd think everyone is ripping off from boosted.

imgur is not almost as bad as conventional image hosts. I guess you haven't used any conventional ones lately that block the image after bandwidth exceeded? Also, most of the other ones are even more spammy than imgur. Imgur still a

People change too. You can't hold it against someone all their life because they donated $1000 to prop 8. For the rest of his life, people will look at Eich differently simply due to the small donation amount many decades ago.

Maybe the search space is limited in the first few minutes of the game when your opponent has also has a limited set of moves, but as the game goes on, the complexity increases exponentially. The 7 roach rush could be calculated here becau

Many stochastic methods get around the local optima problem with various techniques. The simplest one is just to pick another random place to start climbing.

Since they filed a patent on it, I assume it is new tech. There is new charging tech from time to time, but most of the IP belongs to those big semiconductor companies, like TI. I know TI has an innovative power management module for LiPo

They do this to increase adoption, but it would probably still reduce the life of the battery. I doubt people would use their supercharger every day unless they happened to live next door to one. Their purpose of the supercharger network

There are many other companies besides tesla who offer public charging, like Blink & Chargepoint. Tesla owners can still recharge their vehicles at these stations even though the charge rate is probably slower.

I wonder if they're doing price elasticity experiments? You could get a slightly cheaper price by getting a different cookie set.

If you were really poor, a bread machine is probably the easiest & cheapest way to make bread. It comes out to be around 25 cents a loaf, and you can control how much you want to make per batch. You only really need yeast and flour.

I doubt this idea was ever "stolen". It's such a simple game that I'm sure there have been hundreds of variants ever since the start of the computer revolution.

Right, it also shows that simple personalized honesty is probably better than marketing stunts that portray something incredible. This reminds me of those tear-jerker google ads, like the "Dear Sophie" one.

I think if you're planning on running a business of OSX machines, you probably shouldn't rely on hackintosh stuff. Upgrading the OS on hackintosh is pretty painful.

You might want to check out ROS from the willow garage people. It's probably the right tool that you're looking for.
