Why can't GX and this tool store packages in the same format, so one can use packages from the other?
For basic CRUD and REST API I use Sails.js [0]. You can literally roll-up an app in 20 minutes.

But isn't this the big hardware developer's dream? Make some popular hardware and then create an app store for it? Seems that way. Leap Motion (worst hardware on Earth, man) did that. And I guess making it a walled garden is just the next step, if your hardware is really popular.
I think the problem here is that I didn't specify exactly what I meant by "refactoring", "unit" and what types of changes I would be making. Often times I find refactoring necessary because a significant piece of the system was either under or over engineered and it becomes necessary to update that code without changing the functioning of the system. So by refactoring, I mean refactoring at a level the encompasses multiple units of code, while maintaining the same functioning of the system. That means the interfaces may change for the individual units, which would obviously break the unit tests.
The "can you pay taxes with this" is a really important point. It's why the US dollar is valuable - if you want to do business in the US, you have to pay taxes, and the US government only accepts dollars.

Oh? Genuinely curious: what's so awful about my comment? If Apple can stuff up a fundamental rendering issue [1] and it takes them 3 months to release a simple revert of the unreviewed commit, then how are my comments on their incredibly slow bug fix timeframes for browser issues out of line?

It's exciting to see that Kubernetes is ready for basically any scale. You're more likely to run out of quota (on your cloud provider, particularly IPs) or some other resource (on-prem) before you can't schedule a container quickly enough.

Disclaimer: I work on Compute Engine and chat with the Kubernetes folks a lot.
Why so complicated? As a first step Please give me a Deployments Page that gives me the option to run simples SH Scripts in the Runner on click, parameterised please.

Jenkins is total Overkill for that but GitLab CI doesnt leave me with enough GUI to skip it either.

I was going to mention this. Andy Grove wrote a number of papers where he said "if biotech just does what the tech sector does, we'd have hundreds of new drugs".

The fact is, it doesn't work that way in biology. When developing new biotech, you'd be lucky if you understood 5% of what a new drug does in the body (sometimes it's 0%!). Serendipity plays a huge part in new drug discovery, although most companies don't like to admit it.

Also, I'm not surprised that Google has matured to the point where "moonshots" don't work so well. You see it in biopharma as well. Huge companies, with billions of dollars of R&D spend fail to produce new innovation on a regular basis. It's the small biotech companies that seem to come up with the innovations, often on a much smaller budget.

The reasons for that are multiple, but it does come down to a big company worrying about how they will grow their $100 billion company by 10% (finding $10B in business isn't easy) and the fact that with large companies comes structure, process and other things that stifle innovation.

I saw one in NYC back in 2011 get a guy for what I think ended up being a stolen car. The cab started to go, then suddenly reversed and went around a median, coming head to head with a car. They then put guns to the driver and ordered him out. Only pic I could find of it: http://imgur.com/ObrYLBv
Cash and electronic cash are interchangeable. Banks can literally just exchange them.

Picture Bank A with 10 million$ on hand. Now, Bank A tells Bank B, I want to transfer 200 million to account XYZ.

What stops this from working? Well bank A and B are both talking to the Fed and the Fed says bank A does not have 200 million. The same thing stops Bank A from just ordering 20 million in cash.

PS: Don't forget there are still plenty of small banks. If owning a bank let you create unlimited cash from thin air people would do so.

Then if I don't see one I look at the cross intersection to make sure THEY have the stop sign.
> Amazon was crazy when it started,

No, it was not.

Amazon started out by just selling books, which others had already been doing before Bezos came along.

For instance, books.com belonged to an outfit in Ohio that would sell you books through a telnet terminal interface (http yet to come).

Amazon marketed better ("a river of one million books") and executed well on the web. Books.com was sold to Barnes&Noble a few years later.

> We are talking about 3/4 of games, easily. Games where you are a character and you run around in virtual space.

Then don't make those games for VR.

This might be cliche, but VR is not just a new accessory for an existing platform. It's a completely new platform. It needs new content that fits it -- shoehorning existing content into it will generally suck. Wandering around Skyrim sounds cool but will not work. Sorry.

As an example I've tried a lot, sim games (car, plane) work really well with VR. If there clearly is a cockpit around you and a seat you are sitting in inside the virtual world, your brain is fine with you sitting in your comfy chair.

Of course, not everyone will enjoy sim games. However, I'd be willing to bet a lot of money that there are and will be more new games that fit VR well. These will probably include entirely new genres of content that are not compelling or interesting on a monitor but work well on VR. Conversely, some genres will never translate well into VR.
The community is working on what we like to call "self-hosted" Kubernetes. This will help reduce the complexity of installation on all platforms. You can see more about it from my KubeCon keynote: https://youtu.be/A49xXiKZNTQ?t=6m The target is to have this all upstream in the next (v1.3) release.

> If you (and your team, if applicable) already know that set of languages, then there's no reason for you to learn Go.

Google is the perfect counter-example to your argument. C++, Java and Python were the 3 main programming languages in use at Google, and despite that, they designed Go and started using it instead of C++/Java/Python in some projects.

Go can be used instead of C++ when you need and can tolerate a garbage collector, and you don't need things like a custom memory allocator.

Go can be used instead of Java when you need a native executable, statically linked (like you wrote), when you need a better control over memory layout (especially to reduce pressure on the garbage collector), and when you need async IO without callbacks/promises/futures.
May I ask why you think that is the case?
But the game the top .0001% play of "who is the richest" IS a zero sum game. When governments don't reign in their avarice and allow them to take as much as they want from the powerless, the economy becomes a zero-sum game, even though it does not inherently need to be.

If the VR marketplace is going to depend merely on gamers who don't get sick, then you are spot-on - this will be a failed business model. But just as early PC tinkerers couldn't imagine what would be created when it went mainstream, we too lack the imagination to see what people will do with VR. The good news is that we won't have to wait long now that hardware is getting out into the wild. There are MANY applications that don't require moving around or that only require moving around in a small space.
> then the answer to your question "Where does the rest of the money that's lent out come from?" is that it's a passed through loan

In other words, the original source of the rest of the money is the government. Yes, that is exactly the point I was trying to make.

> You could lend the money you borrowed yourself to your friends at an even higher rate, if you liked.

Yes, but unlike commercial banks, you can't have the government print extra money (directly or indirectly) just because you made a loan. Nor can you lend money to your friends and also give the same money back to whoever you got it from, without waiting for your friends to pay back the loan.

> The government lends to banks and not you because it's easier to assess the risk

I understand that that's the story we get told, but that doesn't make it true. The government lends to banks because it is transferring wealth to the banks, but doesn't want to make it obvious that that's what is happening.
The broader thing I've realized of late is that so many startups exist simply because they are building something that appeals to VCs, not something that necessarily appeals to any sort of customer.

So we have reason to be skeptical of any claim to wisdom from VCs and even any claim to understand relevant metrics or KPIs. Good VCs are humble about this, but others posture behind it.

What we should really be wondering is how many bad decisions are made by startups based on pressure from VCs.

Since average (non-accredited) investors are prohibited by law from investing in early stage startups, those who are not prohibited get a highly leveraged game which some are bound to play successfully several turns in a row.

There is nothing wrong with this, but it's sad to see promising startups make bad decisions because they are simply striving for rapid growth at all cost.
Yes it does.

>The latest version (0.9.5) now supports multiple monitors as long as they are connected to the same GPU as the Rift. i'm working on adding support for multi-GPU and Optimus configurations. Multi-Monitor is only available in curved mode at the moment but I'll add support for flat mode at some point too.

You also need a computer to run the Rift. So unless you're cool looking like this (http://i.imgur.com/1HMnJoc.jpg) then you'll need a desk to put that on.
Running it on AWS is supported, and the team is making strides to make it even better! (Complain loudly via GitHub issues where you find problems).

No, it's not completely opposite. You can see UNIX as a simplification of Multics (with the name being a very nice pun!), dropping most of the really hard-to-implement features and focusing on a simple core. Ken Thompson and Dennis Ritchie were programmers on Multics and they admitted lifting features from Multics to implement UNIX.

Many of the things that Multics had eventually made their way back into various UNIX derivatives, because they were great features that a modern OS wants to have. Multics was way ahead of its time in many ways.

"Fast" ... "Open Source" yeah right, the first one is absolute BS. The second one is exactly wrong and why Oracle thinks they deserve some money.
You missed the shell, and the hierarchical filesystem. UNIX later adopted a number of other Multics features as well.
Different methods of governing can basically all boil down to a simple balance scale:

On one side you have the rights of the individual and on the other side you have the rights of the community.

Some people tend to lean the scale toward individual rights and others toward community rights.

Smaller government tends to handle the balance by staying out of the way until it's necessary that they step in. Bigger government tends to handle the balance by marking clear (or blurry) lines and moving them when necessary.

Right, but we're not talking about whether a median employee's salary is big in a median market. We're talking about executive comp in the SFBA. I'd estimate the CEO of PLoS is making ~2.5x what the average employee makes, which is a completely reasonable multiple for executives that are reliably hitting their goals and doing good work. You may think comp in the SFBA is warped, but I don't think it's fair to dismiss context out of hand.

> The one thing that I think has the potential to make VR popular is monitor replacement.

I don't see it as a good monitor replacement technology. In limited applications, such as for AutoCAD and 3D design, I can see it as a good option. It would be very useful for 3D visualization or model examination. But for normal, every day, web browsing / computer use, I don't see VR to be very viable. Goggles with high res screen and AR are going to happen, and are going to be very useful. I can see the day where your cellphone will also be your laptop, and you just connect goggles to it to do some work. But that's not VR, that's just evolution of cinema goggles.

I do agree though that VR does make a lot of people sick, including people who have been flying FPV drones with goggles for a while. There is something about completely filling your field of view that just makes people sick if it doesn't track just perfect, and matches to your vestibular system. There are efforts to hack the vestibular system to make you fee what you are seeing, but it's a little scary, and I think many people would be creeped out by electrodes and such connected to their heads.

Probably because twice you said "It is going to bomb" instead of "I think it is going to bomb".

It may very well bomb but probably more so because of high cost and lack of "killer" games. I've never heard someone say that the images give them a feeling of anxiety and to be honest it's never crossed my mind. I frequently do have anxiety but if anything VR looks like a way to escape from anxiety and real-world instead of something that causes those feelings.

Nothing about VR makes me feel uncomfortable but maybe less technical people don't understand it's just a screen strapped to your face. Now self driving cars? That makes me uncomfortable...
