This is huge! I don't want to sound contemptuous but to me, paper feels like an inefficient artefact, just waiting to be disrupted by something that can incorporate the few remnant benefits which current range of E-Readers don't cover. I have had Kindle since about an year and I can't imagine ever going to paper books. I can instantly check words, read in the dark, or purchase whenever I like. The only thing I do miss is marking an important passage.

If notes, and highlighting work as advertised, will printed books have anything to offer other than aesthetic value?

IIRC the TRS-80 Model III had a similar single-line editor. Once my little fingers knew all the commands, it was pretty efficient.
Javascript and as soon as possible WebAssembly, as I understand it.

I think mobile is a secondary consideration in this at this point. Considering it is connected to the internet archival efforts and simply ensuring the survival of numerous video/audio formats I imagine they are fine if it isn't efficient but simply effective at this point.

Edit: on second thought, you might not be commenting on the VLC.js thing, I haven't read about the ffmpeg js stuff ;)
Hotz described his product as 'fancy cruise control'. He actually doesn't play it up, and there are any number of fly-by-night autonomous driving startups working on rudimentary autonomous driving systems on next to no budget, but of course it's Hotz getting all the attention.

I'm seeing a lot of internet commenters reacting emotionally to Comma.ai, but the only thing they're getting upset about is their own inflated expectations. The actual product is too niche, too esoteric to warrant a strong reaction. It's a toy for nerds to tinker with, nothing more.

Yes, because they're different services running on different architecture and distributed differently. I challenge you to find one time in the past five years where CloudWatch was down at the same time as other services. Even if you can, I'm sure your custom built Nagios server in your datacenter has gone down as many or more times too.

But my bigger point here is that you're essentially asking "well how do you monitor your monitor?" At which point up the chain do you have enough? Also, I think the original post was simply a demo of what is possible. Yet whenever someone posts something, people go in the comments to belittle it. "Yeah, you built a monitoring solution... Well what happens if that goes down?"

Which is a legitimate question. But obviously if your production service is that critical to your business, you won't be monitoring it with a service that costs $0.0000002 per execution.

counter this though: the left (at least at the moment) feel pretty comfortable flinging labels around? Is this just a vocal minority calling Trump/supporters a fascist(s)?

Have you looked at http://seaside.st/ ? Seaside has been around for a while; it offers a component based approach to building web applications from objects, including an in-browser way to inspect and modify the code of displayed components. It also offers a DSL for writing HTML, along with some support for jquery. There is also a free book to teach how to use Seaside to develop webapps, including dynamic frontends (but not a full SPA, I think): http://book.seaside.st/book

Seaside explicitly chose a "heterodox" approach in being session based and producing URLs that are clearly not RESTful. That being said, the Seaside book covers the Seaside REST package which handles building RESTful APIs.
Then again, HDMI is laden with HDCP, and i seem to recall more than one story about how you had to turn on devices in just the right order to get something other than a black screen or error because HDCP tripped up.

Digital signals are in theory a boon. but digital signals wrapped in DRM is a hot mess best avoided.
Power consumption and performance are big concerns, because JavaScript (software) decoders can't leverage hardware acceleration.

But archive.org wants to preserve and publish many formats that are not high resolution, high frame-rate video, and we can expect both performance and power consumption to improve over time.
This and also if that campus is active promoting itself (meetups, hackatons, events, accelerators…), the VC's will come over themselves – they need the talent. Europe is small and geographically that's really not a problem.
Porridge was a British sitcom about prisoners. It's another one of those UK tv shows that didn't have many episodes (20?) but which were very popular and I guess fondly remembered.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0071036/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1

Porridge is British slang for serving a prison sentence. "Doing your porridge"; "he's doing his porridge". http://virtuallinguist.typepad.com/the_virtual_linguist/2012...

> own special operating system Codex / We might however release an unsupported SDK for best developers

That's disappointing. I assume "best developers" means corporates. I'd have hoped for a fully open SDK as you're not able to use anything from Android etc. There's probably no end of utilities solo coders would piece together. I'd probably be looking at whether I could make a few apps myself.

I'm a little disappointed at no lighting, it's made a big difference to my eReader. No doubt LEDs would add much to cost.
If you have a job asking you to write or maintain PHP software, then you should indeed learn it enough to do a good job.

But otherwise, IMO, your time would be better used learning something else, or another programming language. For example, learning Common Lisp (or scheme), or Haskell, or Prolog, etc, would let you learn new concepts and make you a better PHP programmer in the end, because learning those languages would make you a better programmer in general.

PHP is in the second little pink box on the right "Sequential object-oriented programming". There are a lot of other boxes to learn!
There are plenty of SF startups (and full-sized companies like Twitter etc.) that never make a profit. But startups in SF that can make a profit will still win out over European equivalents since they're granted such huge runways to perfect their product before they're under pressure to go to market.

I agree that the incentive system for startups right now is broken, as so many are simply aiming for an IPO before they're exposed as jokes but there's an inherent advantage to being in SF for any type of fledgling tech business.
Your bank operates under strict regulations. The modus operandi of Uber has been to seek market opportunities by breaking regulations. Those things seem obviously to be in conflict.

Basics of using the readline library
My wife is on KDE, kids are on KDE every day (although they spend their time mostly inside firefox). I use openbox exclusively. It's debian stable (testing was a bit too stressful to update every week, I'm getting old :-))

Everything works : printing works (provided the driver is flawed); network works, cd burner works, Nvidia card works. electronic ID card works, USB stuff works. I even use a pretty old scanner and a pretty old drawing tablet; both work.

The PC is 7 years old. I've added hard drives, changed video card and moved to SSD drives.

The only pain point is that somehow, sometimes the PC doesn't shutdown because it has received a wake-on-lan packet.
Also, you can check the original sh by Stephen R. Bourne (Bell Labs, [1]). Or the original csh by Bill Joy (BSD, [2]). In Github there is a huge repository with a collage of Unix History, where is possible to check how shells have been evolved ([3]).

Hello, Thanks a lot for your input.

A discriminator could be a great idea. Any idea on the kind of model efficient for such a task. I'm not sure a CNN is required for such a simple job.

Nowadays, I ouput label + probabilities, however detection threshold can sometimes be around 20% or 70%. I could of course design label-specific threshold, but it doesn't seem to be the correct way.

Or sometimes there is an object in front of me, but not any I know to classify. I would like to be able to detect that this object I don't know.

Concerning entropy, I would definitely give it a shot ! Very nice idea.

Any of you may know a system implementing such behaviour (e.g. I don't detect any object, I don't know this object) ?

Thanks a lot for your help.

Please (re)read Norman's Design of Everyday Things, for starters. TLDR: Blame the designer (of the tool), not the user.

I taught 100s of people how to use CAD. Tough going. Technophile me thought "Of course it's better, easier, more powerful." Most of my student's blamed themselves. But I knew they were smart, knew what they wanted to accomplish, and just couldn't figure out how to do their jobs with CAD.

You could say "square peg, round hole", or "like pushing rope". I preferred "CAD is an angry 800lb gorilla sitting between people and their work".

Being kinda thick, I finally figured out the tools suck, not the people. Specifically with CAD, worse than the terrible UI, they had terrible mental models, completely divorced from how the users see their own work.

In conclusion, blaming the user is not very humanist. I rage at computers all the time, and I supposedly know what I'm doing. I have deep empathy for anyone not chin-deep in this crap.
we can't release more technical details than what is on the webpage for now, we're still working on the performance. but to give you a rough idea on where we are on UI responsiveness and loading times, this is what we're using for targets: https://www.nngroup.com/articles/response-times-3-important-...

and the digitizer is an EMR digitizer, completely separate from the touch layer. so we don't have to worry about palm rejection.

edit; you can see the speed of the zoom in the video, which also needs to re-render the page at a different scale. so that should give you an idea about the speed of page flipping.
Most Parisian apartments are tiny. You can forget about owning a free standing house. If you can afford that, you don't need investors in your start up... Or you're not in Paris at all. Think Manhattan. Paris' overall population density is comparable to Manhattan and much higher than overall NYC density.

I am running an Archer C7 v2 on OpenWRT. Works flawlessly. Some notes though:

- 5ghz only worked after manually inserting the latest firmware blob for the qca9880 chip and setup only works via shell for it, setting any options for it from the web interface breaks stuff

- it's fast enough... I'm running a freeradius2 server on it, SMB shares on two 32gb USB pendrives, miniDLNA, DHCP for ~50 physical and virtual clients, a VPN tunnel to a VPS and so on. Never hits full load.

- 2.4ghz range is massive, 5ghz less so obviously...

- it is absolutely stable however, uptime exceeds two months and the only reason for shutting it down back then was a move, almost nine months before that

If you're simply looking for APs I would recommend Unifi UAP-AC-Pros though.
Last fall I bought a Thinkpad T540s that came with Windows 10 + Lenovo Crapware and a sound driver that did not work out of the box.

I started looking for how to develop plugins for Edge to port it, but could not find any resources from Microsoft which is pretty strange.

They simply state "Microsoft Edge supports a new HTML, JavaScript and CSS based extension model. This new model is Chrome-compatible which means that existing Chrome extension developers will be able to migrate their extensions to Microsoft Edge with minimal changes." but not how to actually add the extension or anything to get going.
