My vision for these boards is not to display graphics, but to send/receive data from the internet and a local network. I'm not going to use a Pi to watch movies or some other resource-intensive task. I'd just as soon use the power of GPU

This reminded me of Tim OReilly trying to explain how sed works back in the 1980's. In his case it was a monk/scribe instead of an imp. Nice work. Is the sedation COW?

But wouldn't IQ, education, etc. be factors in whether someone would even make it into the YC class? If investors are not concerned with these factors, should they be relevant in the YC (or any incubator) application process? (I realize ask

How many investors do you think were reading every amendment to the S-1 up to May 9? Not even considering how many did not read the S-1 to begin with. The use of the Greenshoe tactic to make the price appear stable also seems to suggest th

http://apc.io is the original source. It has a nice photo of Allen and Gates. Now, what I'm wondering is how easy it is to replace Android with your own OS. I want to know about the bootloader.

People should read your comment a few times to let it sink in. But, iRobot, why should we care about efficiencies? Energy grows on trees. I predict we are going to see many, many more ARM devices. And Apple is going to lead the way. This

I'm loving this sequence of events just for opportunity to see the cognitive dissonance of some HN commenters in action. The FB IPO strategy was to wait for the peak (or "plateau", if you prefer) in their growth, collect money from the publ

People here are bearish on FB because they 1. have a conscience and 2. understand the company's business (the simple technology). People here are bullish on FB because they either 1. lack a conscience or 2. do not understand the company's b
