The closest we got to a fully open source android release was probably in the Nexus one days with some 9 proprietary blobs and , worse, user space support programs (IIRC the compass calibration routines, annoyingly.) , all for various chip&

If you wanna see cutouts of a bunch of this equipment, a pig in a transparent pipe, and just happen to be in Oman, the petroleum development museum there is super. Id imagine there's something similar in Houston, this stuff is legit fa

Yup, we wanted Renee to make the mascot for Go.I personally really loved Glenda (the plan 9 bunny) and was enthusiastic. It turned out pretty cute! We even ended up ordering a few containers full from squishables in that first year of go be

It does ignore a ton of contributions from a ton of people, but that is the job of the CEO and cofounder. If anything I always want to know more about Chris Malachowsky, Nvidia's cofounder. Their relationship I thought was pretty speci

They're not allowing approval of wires via SMS or their app, and no one is picking up the phone there and most numbers are fast busy. Smells deeply bad. I had an account at a bank that went under a few decades ago and it took a while f

I went to one of these last year and it's was basically a gas station convenience store without the gas or convenience. Poorly stocked, weirdly expensive, and, well, shabby.
