Just a bit of background: Emmanuel Faber is the CEO of Danone, and was asked to do the graduation speech for the HEC business school in France. The first 5 minutes are unfortunately in French, and then he switches into English. IMHO this sp

The glorious revolution was the direct consequence of the Lumières - in fact it was part of the movement!

Let's be honest, it is actually the brutality of the French revolution which forced the British royalty to hand over power to the people. And before doing these "peaceful" transitions, all neighbouring countries tried to smot

The US independance was completely inspired by the "Lumières" (the philosophical movement of the Enlighteners), which originated in France and led to the French revolution as well as the emergence of true democracy accross Europe.

I enjoyed it a lot as well. This piece is a story about Wright, not cold, raw news about whethers he's Satoshi or not. Quite fitting, given that the Satoshi persona is fictive by construction...

Can you be specific about the country? Where I live a similar thing happened to a friend of mine, and he finally managed to discuss with the employment agency who agreed to grant him assistance in the end. He didn't have to mention the

@wanda do you know about HN Cards on iOS? (shameless plug, but it's free so...)

by stangeek 11y ago
No, it's not the same at all. Here you get to select online the product you want to buy, you are not "forced" to receive a box of produce. And there is no monthly fee at all, you just pay for what you buy.

That would be most useful indeed. Re-read the paper and still can't pinpoint the main difference vs. previous experiments, and why this is a significant achievement... Any QM expert around here who could help us?

by stangeek 11y ago
OK - but what's the difference with previous experiments? Is it that they did it with a single photon? Or is it because they managed to do it from two remote laboratories?

Hi Beloch I just read the arxiv paper, but with my limited QM understanding it's tough to really grasp the significance of this experiment. Would you be able to explain it in layman's terms (assuming basic knowledge of QM) or is i

Thanks for the explanation. I have developed several more or less complex apps with Ionic and have yet to see a performance issues on "recent" devices (ie. >4S). But still it's an interesting idea. One comment: if you hav

I like some of the ideas in the CLI (live reloading on both platforms, live dom editing etc.), but indeed this is very much Ionic + Firebase-like 3 way binding bundled into a nice packaging. Not sure I see the benefit vs. Ionic in itself t

To me this sounds very much like "Microsoft is buying Dropbox in the next 6 months"...

Thanks for your comments! By swiping up you can share to apps like Instapaper etc. if you want to read in the format you like. Re comments section, an upcoming update will likely adress this in a nice way ;)

Nice - I once had a playsport from Kodak (no longer produced I believe) and really enjoyed it. If this is of the same quality it's certainly worth trying...

This is awesome. What about a collective dev facepalms gallery? It would be great to add a caption to the photo with an extract of the error message at the time. You could actually start a meme with that!

I would say it very much depends on which computer you're trying to organise. For my work drive, everything is sorted by year then project, and each project starts with a timestamp (= start date), so: 2014/ 2014_01_Project A&#x

Thanks, this is more or less what I thought. From your experience then, when is the optimal time of year to get attention for a new product? This is slightly different for my app as it's only targeted at HN users, and my intention is n
