Perhaps it's the new "literally" ?
$8 to the US; I get books and CDs from the UK for $4 including S&H thought Amazon.com, granted, those outfits do it in bulk, but I wonder why it's so much more.

Tron-Club, which ships kits, packets of electronics and a manual once a month from Canada, will ship to the U.K. for £3.99, or £14.99 total vs. $19.99 to the US (http://tronclub.com/subscribe).
Yes, in addition to that there is also:

* RFduino - has the advantage of being available on RS. Downsides: 16 kB version, no 32 kHz crystal, very few IO pins exposed.

* BMD-200 - 32 kB version, cheap if you're in the US, well made, 15 GPIOs exposed, no 32 kHz crystal

* Simblee (by same guys as RFduino) - 32 kB version, 32 kHz crystal, more GPIOs, tiny, quite expensive though

Nordic maintains a list of modules:

Just signed up (it was the vertical farming episode + reasonable price point that sold me). The $2.99 price is perfect for a sporatic watcher like me.

One suggestion: please make your app available in the Amazon app store. Some of us don't want to use Google Play.

Neutron stars are just mostly neutrons. Like atomic nuclei, they also contain protons.

(In their core, they could potentially even contain quarks or hyperons, although recent neutron star measurements make this a bit more unlikely)
There's a scene in COAL MINER'S DAUGHTER where the producer halts the recording session after Loretta Lynn starts singing and says "We need to get some more pickers."

"What do you mean more?" her husband says. "I can't afford more."

"I mean more better," the producer replies.

The problem isn't so much WHAT Mayer did, but how badly she did it. She wanted to boost Yahoo's video division, for example, so she (a) paid Katie Couric (someone my Mom really liked) more money than God, (b) licensed the streaming rights to SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE (which needs to be put out of its misery) and (c) decided to fund a season of COMMUNITY (which nobody ever watched). Now THERE'S a compelling product offering. WhoTF would watch that?

She redesigned the site to make it mobile-friendly-- which made it almost unreadable for desktop users. Apparently no one told her that browsers send information about what type of device is reading the site. I liked the tech news, but it became so painful that I just gave up.

(She also killed a lot of the personalization features, which is what had attracted people.)

She bought a lot of tiny companies, most of which made products that were never integrated-- and whose employees left as soon as their employment agreements expired.

She bought Tumblr... then had absolutely no idea what to do with it, and ended up not doing anything. Shut down their sales force to integrate it with the Yahoo sales force (which didn't want to sell Tumblr)-- and then realized they'd have to restart the Tumblr sales force to monetize at all.

She inherited an email system that was a hot mess and made it a different type of hot mess-- with enough glitches that people couldn't rely on it for their email.

A lot of the ideas were reasonable, but the execution was so horrific that there was never any value-add.
There is no outcome yet.

Have you heard of Ernst Röhm the Nazi general who was openly gay during his tenure?

Apparently his homosexuality and the resulting stigmatization didn't stop him from espousing horrendous values and ideals.

Someone's sexual orientation has no weight on the values system that he/she would subscribe to and thus shouldn't be taken into consideration in any serious discussion about the topic.

> child_process: spawn() and spawnSync() now support a 'shell' option to allow for optional execution of the given command inside a shell. If set to true, cmd.exe will be used on Windows and /bin/sh elsewhere. A path to a custom shell can also be passed to override these defaults. On Windows, this option allows .bat. and .cmd files to be executed with spawn() and spawnSync(). (Colin Ihrig) #4598

Does this mean that it can now open a real shell (like iTerm) and execute a script ? or I misunderstood ?

Startup Genome Project states that, there 92% startups fail within 3 years.[1]

According to CBInsights there were ~8000 deals in 2015.[2]

If we combine the above two facts and do a very conservative assessment, there will be at least 7000 failed companies.

I have a very simple question - What happens to the codebase of these companies?

> from tonights Republican debate and their stance on Apple, I'm pretty sure its safe to say they also support the NSA surveillance initiatives. Anything justified as "protection from terrorists" will be supported by the government and sadly by most US citizens.

Was there any doubt? One of the core pillars of the Republican party is massive defense spending while the party's opinion on Snowden is not exactly favorable (to say the least). Furthermore, a current Rubio ad is literally claiming we will enter into the Apocalypse (due to terrorism and economic collapse) if he isn't elected as the GOP nominee.
To answer your last question: Civilization would have progressed faster, people would still be able to think and the economy would produce more things that are actually valuable.
Hey look, they took the fear-mongering word "terrorist" out of the headline.

Can't they choose not to sign and just look for legally non-obliging alternatives? Etherium tries to sell just the idea of digitizing¹ the legal contracts, it won't fix the practice of the involved actors!

¹ Digitizing as conversion to digital but locally stored documents like they did with books doesn't do it with contracts, as these are more than information on paper, so the digitizing in this case had to address somehow also the contracts' functional part.
Unlike ConnectBot, Termux is not a terminal, it's a customized linux environment (think of a chroot without really changing root directory), which provides its own linker and libraries (so it's not advised to run android system tools in Termux, thus not a terminal).
Sadly not. When calling spawn[Sync]() in prior versions the command would be executed directly as a child of the node process. If you wanted to use any features like piping, automatic environment variable interpolation or backgrounding etc; you had to manually wrap your command with a system shell like bash(sh).

This addition when set to true, will do the wrapping for you in a cross-platform manor.

Don't go after "learn javascript". Try to "learn to program" first. The only way to learn anything is BY DOING. You have to sit and code. Are you going to play great basketball just watching the NBA? NO! You have to go outside and play. In the world of coding that translates to: sit and code.

Online resources, there are many. Too many sometimes. Grab anything from codecadeamy, codeschool, or Tree House. But remember that's not the only thing you need to know.

If you check my profile, we do remote programming courses where people work together with a real teacher for 6 weeks. We offer scholarships (100% free).

Remember:
* Focus on learning programming. What's the scope of a variable? what's immutability? etc.
* Practice a lot. Code as much as you can.
* Look up for a group to work together.
And that's why you stay private.
Some quotes that I feel shows VMware's attitude towards the software freedom community:

[...] the VMware defense in claiming that overall, they could only find very few functions that could be attributed to Christoph, and that this may altogether be only 1% of the Linux code they use in VMware ESXi.

At times their lawyers made statements like linux is this small yellow box in the left bottom corner (of our diagram). So of course already the diagrams are drawn in a way to twist the facts according to their view on reality.

In "1984" the "proles" weren't constantly monitored, but they also had no influence to anything.

> Someone's sexual orientation has no weight on the values system that he/she would subscribe (...)

They _may_ have no weight, indeed, as your anecdote illustrates.

People tend to empathize more with people they have something in common with (some research suggests [0][1]), so I think many of us would certainly have a mindset affected by our minority-held sexual orientation, in matters where our sexual orientation actually plays a role (security being one of the more obvious cases).

One more vouch for Rancher here. Very excited about the impending GA.
In a perfect world it wouldn't be, because it wouldn't make a difference.

Although things are better these days than there were, there is not complete equality - and I am not speaking legally.

There is no need to "come out" to your friends and family that you are straight and like girls (if you are male and vice versa).

Until there is no bigotry, until there is literally no difference in what sex you prefer, then something like this will have an effect on your life, thus it may have played a part in Tim's view regarding his current position.

I would assume that most of that is due to PDFs weigthing a lot more than their content.

If someone wants to donate IT skills and coding time (this is a thing that I've read several times in HN), perhaps it would be great that someone puts together a system that takes a PDF, OCRs it when necessary, detects images and graphs, and uses all of that to create a light version of the document (html/latex/markdown/whatever); and then puts all of those TB through that tool.

The reduction in storage and network costs might be a lot more than a standard donation!

Because Jon von Tetzschner was and is passionate about building a good browser, and didn't really care that the odds were (are?) against him.

But when Opera is brought up, the focus is always on the Desktop browser. However, the money was always in devices - Opera has traditionally been really big on a plethora of devices.

Also, Opera both on desktop and mobile, has long been big in markets other than the US, especially eastern Europe.

"The first thing that makes running Just Landed difficult in the long-term is a serious lack of innovation in the flight data industry."

Our company shut down because other people didn't innovate enough, not our fault.

"An app like Just Landed relies on access to high quality flight data to function correctly. "

We created an app based on data that doesn't exist. Not our fault, somebody else failed to create that data.

"Traffic and mapping data in particular, much of which used to be free, has become quite expensive, and is now tightly controlled by big companies under oppressive Terms of Service."

Other companies refuse to give us free services, and want to keep their valuable data restricted under oppressive terms of service. Not our fault, how could we expect that people wouldn't give us free stuff?

"These power users consume 100–500 times as much flight data per year as casual users, and so the cost of supporting will soon begin to overwhelm revenue from new app sales."

We failed to price the app correctly, since we're charging a one-time fee for a continuous service, but hey, not our fault again, who would have thought that people who buy our app would use it?

"Essentially, there’s a massive oversupply of apps, and the app markets are now saturated and suffering from neglect and short-term thinking by the companies who operate them."

There's too much competition! Seriously, it's all the competitor's fault, lowering prices as if there's no tomorrow. How can we be expected to make money with such cutthroat, dog eats dog competition?

Seriously, what a completely lame excuse. [Edit: that was unnecessarily harsh, my apologies]

The whole Apple/FBI fracas is about promoting smartphones as the centre of our universe: the confluence of medical, financial, and all other personal information. If Apple can convince us that smartphones are secure, there are lucrative opportunities for smartphone technology to become ubiquitous and pervasive in our lives.

Unfortunately, it will always be necessary for law enforcement to have access to bad guys' stuff. The Fourth Amendment guarantees your privacy, but police can break down your door and seize your financial and medical records if they have reasonable grounds to suspect you. Why should your smartphone be different?

The smartphone is not an inalienable right. We are confusing convenience with fundamental rights; technology with entitlement.

If you don't trust your smartphone to be impregnable, then guess what? Don't put your medical & financial info on your smartphone. There was an epoch when we actually did banking & medicine without smartphones.
