On SHI, it's listed at $16,779.00 (per unit?) https://www.shi.com/products/productdetail.aspx?SHISystemID=...

Agreed. We got around this by hacking the single use CVS/Rite Aid cameras according to the below guide. Dropping one of these in the water or on some rocks didn't feel quite so devastating. https://makezine.com/200

I also had a lot of fun KAPing before drones. Stabilization was handled fairly easy with a Picavet (or Pendulum) suspension system. Neat and low tech. More details here: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kite_aerial_photo

First thought (to the article title "Why we stopped building fatjars") was that the build person had "graduated" and took their newly "acquired superpowers elsewhere" [0] Joking aside, fantastic idea =) Have yo

They've already increased it from the originally published concurrent requests per function limit (originally 50, now 100) [1] We'd like the "Total size of all the deployment packages that can be uploaded per account" in

Totally agree. For example, the Frontlines project, or "70 miles in 7 years" was done 2 years early and 300 million dollars under budget. [1] That goes a long way towards future budget increase requests and tax increase votes. [

Salt Lake City (also "in the West") already has ~45 miles of light rail track [1], 88 miles of commuter rail track [2], ~3 streetcar track miles [3], and 69 transit stations. It was named as one of the top transit systems in nort

The social safety net and creative destruction discussion is interesting. However, I'm interested from a design perspective. Does anyone know if this was built by the "apps team" at NPR? IMO, it's very well done. More from the NPR "apps t

His profile lists "CEO/Co-Founder of competehub.com and ignitelab.net" The irony, of course, is the tagline used at ignitelab.net is: "Ignite Your Innovative Internet Business Idea Right Now"

Several people at my work had the same Google Wallet problem. Most of us had a $900 charge that was later cancelled. Ultimate tease. This was my favorite tweet: "Another year, another batch of developers who will be sure to never ever use

This is beautiful. I love NPR. I'm curious, what are the rules/requirements for initiating a new "NPR app"? An election app seems totally obvious, but what about other apps? Is it based on available data? Available funds? Pervasiveness

John's an awesome guy. He has a great ability to consume technologies and present them in a clear and concise way. These videos are professional and helped me quickly get up to speed with Angular (the greatest web framework yet). John's vid

Indeed. +darrenkopp missed the Mid-Jordan line, the West Valley line (both currently operational), the airport line (opening in April) and the Draper line (also opening in 2013). These are mostly east-west lines. Also not included is the

Is this sarcasm? =) If you want to know how real auto-complete works, try out IntelliJ. Auto-complete on Eclipse is like slowly being pecked to death by ducks. A more accurate statement in my mind is "Eclipse makes Java palpable, IntelliJ

Super Dev Mode and Elemental (appear to) take away two of my big complaints with GWT. The biggest still remains: pounding OO Java into a functional paradigm. One of my favorite quotes ( http://matt.might.usesthis.com/ ): "One should always

That's welcome news. The only downside of improving compiler speed is that I'll have less time to peruse HN. PS - Great job on the presentation today. Sort of felt like it devolved into a marketing pitch (with Sencha et al.), but you're a

I was also a skeptic of Chromebooks until I took mine home from Google IO last year and gave it to my then 7yr old. His response after a few minutes, "Dad, this has the whole internet on it!" This was followed by a detailed lesson from me

Hehe, sorry. The "doo-doo" was used sarcastically - meant to show exactly how out-of-place it is to talk about excrement (using any synonym) in the context of a git tutorial. Next time I'll be sure and add in my <sarcasm/> tags for
