Isn't the BLE112 already certified? Or does integrating it into a product require you to get the entire product certified?

systemd is first that pops to mind. They're at 212, I think. Though given they seem to skip any point versions, that may be seen as "cheating".

The difference is that upstream for upstart is open to BSD/Hurd/etc. ports, whereas upstream for systemd is pretty strongly opposed to them and it does not seem they would assist in the effort.

I experienced this myself recently. The Netflix metro app decided that something was wrong with the DRM path on my two-day old install of Windows 8.1. After much googling, I ended up having to re-install the OS. It was a very similar exp

What's the opposition to MSG? I was under the impression that it was fine, though that there was a possibility that some people have adverse reactions to it — but if you're not one of those people, it's nothing to be concern

Hosted e-mail pricing is broken. "/yr" should change to "/<length of time>" when you change from yearly to monthly/biannual.

Unfortunately while the CPUs themselves are quite reasonable, motherboards tend to be far more expensive and less available. I wonder how much of a markup Intel has on the server chipsets vs. desktop ones; it'd be interesting to know

Were it not for the current shortage of 280X cards due to Litecoin mining, one could build a similar Hackintosh for quite a low price. Though you'd be stuck with 3GiB of memory per card rather than 6GiB (at least until MSI releases th

The D700 doesn't have ECC? I'm surprised by that one. That seems like one of the defining features of workstation cards.

Something I've heard about is integrating Guile into Emacs. Will Guile become the primary language for Emacs with Emacs Lisp as an option, or will Emacs Lisp remain the "default" choice, with Guile for those who want it? An

>Last I checked, drivers for nVidia at least don't yet support cheap scaling for it. Are you sure that's correct? I was under the impression that virtually all GPUs have hardware scalers that wouldn't harm performance.

Why not link to videos of the game? After reading the copy, I still have a very incomplete idea of what the game is like.

Google has a pretty large news presence, and a history of both remarking on notable anniversaries via doodles, and posting relevant news in small text on its home page. It's much more in line with Google's history.

A shaft passer refers to a wheel that can rotate even if a shaft is held between spokes; the image in the wiki page shows one. The device used in mines is somewhat similar in that it seems to allow solid objects to pass through each other,

Apparently the video decoding and other client-side stuff is done purely in JavaScript (and in particular using WebGL), no <video> tag or plugins or anything like that. I presume that all the server-side stuff is still native code. I
