Serious question .. are you long on cash or what? What investment class is not overvalued? Gold is but a store of value and doesn't really grow - look at how high it has gone.

Check our code.org. It feels backwards but I am very impressed. Move onto sphero , then micro-bit and then arduino. There are also decent systems called scratch jr and scratch. Finally, I can’t recommend LEGO mindstorms and boost enough.

Btw this article was an interesting read on trying to build a modern ventilator: https://www.wired.co.uk/article/car-manufacturers-ventilator... War time devices must be simpler (easy to make and do field repairs on).

The key insight that made me want to post this is we should actively try to move to an older ventilator design (does bulk of the work, not optimized but easier and simpler). I have encountered this in my life as a software engineer. MFC (Mi

Thank you for the links. I work in this space professionally. I had heard about Brillo and Android Things a while back (there was very little info back then). Looks like there is a lot more good info now. Will delve into it. By the way, if

I have fond memories of Chuck at MSR-SVC. I was a lowly post-doc who sat close to him for a time. He was very generous with his time and I can only recall his door being open. I was struck by the breadth of his expertise (e.g. he knew about

Hi! Yes .. the PhD requirement is only for the researcher position. A Masters or equivalent hands-on systems experience is sufficient for the dev position. P.S. Pls see my email address from my HN profile. Thanks!!

Heh .. me too! I did it as a hobby project over the holidays. Loads of fun. A few people suggested I write up my experience. Ended up giving a paper at Sci Py 2012: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8d8d_3-8ae4 You can use a

Hi HN, Over the past several months, I've had the honor of working with an amazing set of people to build this service. Would love it for people to try it out, and give feedback. I know there are videos and press releases coming out. A

Neat. How does the hovering work? Is that also using capacitive sensing?

Thanks. Where do I issue vagrant halt (i.e. which folder)? The workaround I found was to go virtualbox directly and issue a poweroff. Not clean at all :(

How do you turn off the VM that is hosting the dockers? I.e. when none are running? Btw, I found the vagrant documentation for the docker provider to be a bit lacking. I probably wasted a day getting it to work :(

I got me a C6100 a while ago (Is this what you got?). The price on the C6100s has doubled since a lot of people realized these were good, cheap machines. What did you get (and curious for how much?) Didn't find an affordable place to h

Can I get anything like this with a more common tech stack? I.e. Node JS, Java + NIO, Python + Twisted (or something else)? 10K, I get. But 1 million+ is freakin awesome in my books.
