maybe this is different for americans, but isnt google flights quite better than your typical orbitz/kayak? especially so if you're a little flexible on dates with their graphs?

Off topic, but I found those photos to be very nice. Is it just an app and an iPhone? I would love to be able to take photos like those. Are there any blogs or anything which have guides on this sort of photography?

Am I alone in finding the graph scary? This rate of change in temperature is probably not something that would be easy to slow down, yet it feels like not many people care about this.

I love the romance of this. Even though the earth is only going to be a few pixels, the frame will contain a snapshot of the entire human race.

I had a front page item about a year ago. The article ended up getting like 300 points so it was on the front page for around 12 hours. All the content was served by nginx on a micro EC2 instance, nothing was even put on a CDN. But still, i

I kind of did something vaguely similar, except less cool. I wanted to learn a little python except there was problems with getting internet access at my house. I was only without internet for like 3 weeks but that didn't cause too many pro

Hey, OP here. I realize now that it was a mistake to come off like that but there were a few reasons on why I did: - I just felt like a piece of shit when I wrote it because I have no connections and have had a very hard time trying to get

Along with 750 instance hours of Windows Server 2008 R2 per month, the Free Usage Tier also provides another 750 instance hours to run Linux (also on a t1.micro) Does that mean you can run two t1.micro servers concurrently? Edit: yes it d

The hardest part to that for me is the "get to know people" part. He already had a mentor before he started learning. How would one get a mentor in the first place? How do you get to know other people?

how about making an app that just stores the .tex files, and to convert them to pdf or something, the .tex file gets sent to a server

I doubt you will be able to just fly around with it anywhere you want. They probably will give you training since you are paying $100,000 and there is no other way to get any training.

Pretty disappointed on the comments here (this was written when people were saying moon landing was fake)... The training had to be exhaustive, there was no retrying. Each Apollo mission was an important step from the previous. They had to

One thing that is too common in these aerospace related budget estimates is that they go up. I am trying not to be pessimistic, but I have a feeling that their launch costs might go up a little bit. Even if it does it, their prices would st

I am really hoping everything goes well in this mission; we are so close to being able to send astronauts into space through commercial companies. Space X is doing things cheaper and faster than any government has. These commercial companie

I wonder what would happen if somehow duckduckgo managed to be the default firefox search engine. Their results compared to google aren't bad at all.

That is exactly what I was going to say. Investigating these UFOs would be a waste of money and a waste of time. I remember reading something where people would call to say they have spotted a ufo when they were actually looking at venus (t

I don't see how most computer screens - even the large widescreen ones are a problem when reading webpages. I sort of like scrolling... It would be weird for me to read from the top of the screen, move down to the middle and then make my wa
