I, for one, am one of those people. However, after watching a few minutes of the linked video, I'm convinced (and pleasantly surprised) that Caleb has firm grasp on his design, and honestly sounds like he was the driving force behind h

Worth noting: Andy Slye did an in-depth real-world analysis of his Model 3 for the first 10k miles: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x0MjZOR89Fk He got $0.0206 per mile. Much lower than the article's estimates.

Wow! I'm having flashbacks to Ishkur's Guide to Electronic Music.

Implementation is really nice, actually. The display automatically switches to a white on black mode and the brightness is automatically regulated. You can override either display setting (day/night and brightness) manually, if desired

Would have to mostly agree here, but it's trading time spent at one place for time spent at another. (Disclosure: I'm a Chevy Volt owner, so I have the option of both EV charging and gasoline, on rare occasion). I recently saw som

Good insight! Really rings true when the guy "faxes" from the beach. They had the foresight for ubiquitous remote access, but not for a modern messaging platform. :)

Yep. Look at look at a side-by-side comparison a Model 3 from about a year ago (Premium Interior) vs. today (Partial Premium Interior). In the first few frames, there's a notable improvement in the body tolerances around the frunk. ht

Recently started using CoreOS for Docker Swarm, and it seems really promising. I wonder how this compares?

Not sure if you're referring to cube theory or just the ability to solve... If it's the former, almost anyone can learn to solve a Rubik's cube in a few days (albeit in a non-optimal fashion). It's a matter of learning a

Yes! Oculus makes an SDK for this. You can use it in Unity 3D, Unreal, or directly in a native app. https://developer.oculus.com/documentation/audiosdk/latest/c...

Thanks for this! It inspired me to see if Austin has one too. It does, and it appears to be using the same application to serve up the data: https://data.austintexas.gov

If the numbers of integers-per-dot was set to 1, the sequence would simply highlight prime numbers as they progress through the pyramid shape since “Parallax Compression” would no longer apply.

I was initially thinking the same, but I don't think that's the case. This will help you find a small range of six potential primes (pick any element on the left edge of the triangle). But you're still required to calculate

I was wondering this myself. I skimmed to the code but can't find any variable for this.

There is a pretty significant difference between the expectations of a GameBoy screen, in which your focusing your fovea on the screen, and a visual projection in AR. The biggest issue with narrow FOV in this case is AR strives to make item

The original Myst game was written in Hypercard. With this knowledge, I wrote a Hunt the Wumpus 3D dungeon crawler in my high school CS class when everyone else was stuck with plain ol' text versions.

Amazon Prime Now is already starting this ( https://goo.gl/fSF4DR ) in select markets. I used this last weekend and the delivery was perfect! You can opt to have an out-of-stock item either left off or replaced with a similar

Panda ( http://usepanda.com ) is pretty good for the fields of design, development, and entrepreneurship. It pulls from many different sites, including Hacker News.

I never understood the 3% myself. Why does someone get $60,000 for performing the relative same amount of work when a home sells for $2M?

Isn't the main value of a realtor the ability to provide access to the home for sale, monitor the visitor, and provide insight in regards to the construction & quality of the home? I don't think most people expect the realtor

This is unbelievable. Any decent API would have the client authenticate via user credentials over an encrypted channel to obtain a temporary token (that's only valid for a short time period), and all subsequent command requests would r

Totally correct. As someone who has been using the Oculus DK2 since it's release, I can personally state that nausea can have many underlying sources, but the most frequent is the conflicting information your vestibular system is recei

I can't help but feel like Docker is lacking focus and a proliferation of tools with overlapping roles are emerging. So we have Docker Machine to provision nodes from command line, Kitematic as a GUI version, Tutum, which is similar to

I noticed that as well. Pretty bad UX, imho. If you accidentally refresh your browser, you're forced to watch the whole thing over again until you get back to the original position prior to the refresh.
