I never understood this argument. Many products in the past have failed because they were too restrictive. Apple’s current suite of products are doing very well, so they must be doing right. If you don’t like Apple’s approach or products, t

Then tell your customers that your product won’t be supported on their shiny Apple hardware and ask them to buy another hardware from a different manufacturer.

Sorry, I should have clarified. I'm not against using QR codes. I just didn't realize that I could close the modal window, and thought that I had to jump through hoops to try out Sketch. Given the amount of crap that can be found

I actually lost interest and closed the tab when I saw the QR code.

Nice! A few years ago, there was an HN post about a similar algorithm: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4912964 Inspired by this, I wrote my own implementation in Perl: http://qumsieh.github.io/blog&#x2F

Not being a web developer, I don't see any mention of Node, which makes me curious. Is Node not a good option?

I believe that these days unused CPU cores are physically shut down by turning off the voltage supply that's feeding them, in order to save power. This is a commonly used technique in chip design called "power gating". It is

probably because the page was cross-linking to images on another host, and the admin of that host switched the images. edit: this is called "goatse" btw. Don't google it.

Great job. I have my own mongodb of the games/scores that I update manually (not in real time though). I would love to see something automated like this for the major leagues (La Liga, BPL, Bundesliga, Serie A). I tried my hand at scra

It's just an example to illustrate the callback functionality. The focus is on the visualization part, not the popup.

Pinegrow looks awesome. May I ask about what library you used to write it on the Mac? Do you have an embedded HTML renderer, or did you write your own?

Microsoft sticking to Tegra is an interesting choice. I'm not saying it's bad, but still interesting given the current dynamics of the mobile market. Now that they have Nokia, I predict that Microsoft will attempt to acquire NVIDI

The way I see it, this will directly cannibalize Tegra sales. Up to and including Tegra 4, NVIDIA's mobile GPUs weren't based on their desktop GPU technology. Starting with the next-gen Tegras, they will have a Kepler-based (and l

To be fair, NVIDIA tried to sell a couple of products directly to end consumers before. For example they sold a dual tv tuner card a few years ago ( http://www.nvidia.com/page/dualtvmce.html ), but it didn't go too

This is not GRID.

GRID looks very nice. And they do a good job showing off its capabilities in the videos. The only problem is that I couldn't find a link to buy it from. Is it available yet?

Not to be outdone, I wrote my own genetic algorithm in Perl to do the same. It starts from randomly generated triangles, and evolves them to match the given image. Here is the result of my first trial after 5000 generations: http://imgur.c

I was once in a mall, around noonish, when all of a sudden I saw a group of those Israeli sellers quickly close their two carts and run outside. Turns out that ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) agents were in the mall looking for th

At one point, my favorite desktop by far. As it happens, a few weeks ago I decided to take E16 for a spin after many many years of neglect. It still felt great and snappy. I'll be trying this latest alpha for sure.

Of course, the correct pronunciation is "filasteen" :) But I agree. Hard to abbreviate.
