I don't know about A, I just know it's far too long to just hang around and wait, but regarding B: I'm certain that when my brother and I have taken over a gym together, both present in the fight, and one have put in a pokemon before the other, the other can't insert a pokemon because "The gym is under attack".
I read, when they were pushing 3D TV, that some 10-15% of the population don't have 3D perception for one reason or another, and therefore don't get the immersive experience. Personally, being in that category, I don't get much from these headsets beyond feeling that there is an image in front of my eye that moves with my head, which is more annoying than anything. The AR thing sounds potentially useful though.
I am also perplexed.

The "goal" on KickStarter is set as US$ 120,000 (at this moment it reached more than double that US$ 265,213).

So he asked to receive between 108,000 and 110,000 US$ (net of the Kickstarter fee of 5% and of the additional - absurd BTW - "payment fee between 3 and 5%).

This can be a rather large or a ridicoulosly small amount (of course it depends on points of view) but I propend for the "ridicolously small".

A (hopefully) succesfull robotics engineer in his fifties should have (or can procure through relations) that amount of money easily, and he is "only" a co-founder (and CTO) of the new company.

It seems to me - I have noticed it on other projects that ask for otherwise senselessly small amounts of financing - that Kickstarter is used only to give some visibility to the product/invention.

Seen this way the 10,000-12,000 US$ (financed by crowd BTW) are more "advertising expenses" than anything else, and even if at the end Kickstarter gets (thanks to the higher level of founding contributions) double of that, it is still peanuts for the amount of visibility it provides.
>And frankly I think the only reason this even matters is the media.

So the media is doing it's job, then? I don't see the problem.
I think Beatport does a lot of what you're talking about - it's the go-to store for DJs and there are DJ charts that are pretty robust and well respected.

https://www.beatport.com/charts

Regarding the early "exclusive" access - I think services that provide value for superfans or early champions are a big area of potential growth for the music business. Pledge Music has a great business built around this idea. Coupling that with the taste maker endorsement of DJ feedback etc is a great idee. The challenge - like all music services - is how you find an audience big enough to make it a viable business.

There's just one difference. "You are being advertised" is technically wrong. A product is being advertised to me, and yes, I have to look at it as a cost of using their service. They are advertising masses to the product companies, and product to the masses, but not 'personally me'. There's a huge difference here. I look at it more like a mutual contract between me and the 'free' service. They're not selling "me", it's more like you scratch my back, I scratch yours.
I like this. I've been writing code since the 80's and doing it professionally for decades.

5 Key Things to Consider While Buying a Home in Mississauga
Because it's a fairly frequent occurrence to have brand new accounts on HN rush to Uber's defense. And it's pretty sad to see people rush to Uber's defense because they're a despicable company with a proven track record of breaking many laws, abusing their employees, abusing their drivers, and treating their customers like cattle.

Looking through your comment history, it appears you're an Uber apologist, which is your right.

I'm a Tesla investor, but I don't create straw man accounts to push a narrative.
I think the grandparent author is simply not possessed by the same personality traits that generally define the type of person who gets a lot of value out of HN. I tend towards OCD, which caused getting off Facebook to take about 8 tries. It wasn't until I found a "last straw" that I finally managed it permanently, and that was the runup to the recent US election. I simply did not want to find myself at odds, politically, with a certain couple of family members, and feel like I could not say anything in response to their posts without damaging a relationship I otherwise highly value. With my all-or-nothing personality and approach to things, "the only winning move is... not to play."
We may not be talking about the same thing. I'm talking about ideals like...

- Don't treat women like chattel.

- In general, consider all people to be equally valuable.

- Trust the people you meet. Be able to trust them. Don't abuse the trust. (This means not needing regulations and inspections of everything.)

- Follow the rules, follow the spirit as well as letter of contracts, and don't attempt to twist every role into benefiting yourself or your tribe. ("Don't be corrupt.")

- If, following the rules of society, you fail -- don't step outside the rules in order to win.

If these ideals sound incredibly generic and universal, then congratulations, you've already been infected. For the majority of human history, and in large parts of the world, they are in no way common. There are even parts of Europe which break some or all of these.

Notice that I didn't say "Push western culture", though I wouldn't be sad if that were to naturally spread. It's only the specific cultural innovations that allow us to get along with each other that I care about.

--

Anyone who breaks the latter half of that set, I'll be upset and annoyed at them, and will be disinclined to trade. I certainly won't want them in my country.

Anyone who breaks the top half... well, if they're removing the agency of half their population then I'd feel fine about removing theirs. That's grounds for heavy-handed efforts.

--

Actually, "western culture" may be a misnomer. There was such a thing; it involved maypole dances, mjød, burning witches and constant warfare. It wasn't necessarily nice, and it isn't what we're doing now.

What's been happening could be more suitably termed "universal culture", as it is -- for better or worse -- closer to being highly optimized culture, rather than historically-based. (Optimized for what? Not necessarily our good; cola is incredibly tasty, but I avoid it in all cases.)

Someone else already explained this better than me: http://slatestarcodex.com/2016/07/25/how-the-west-was-won/

I use some of the apps that are listed above, and I don't really have a problem with the performance.

Can you explain little bit more on how not using the native components can be big problem when your app gets bigger? I am asking because i really consider using React Native.

Or maybe give an example under which circumstances will those app fail to perform?

I used Cordova and the "lag" makes it clear from the first 5 seconds that it is not a native app. But i haven't experienced it from the apps that they listed on their page.

As it has been said, it follows other git features. I disagree that rules based on specificity are better. Sometimes I had a hard time reasoning about conflicting CSS rules with different levels of specificity, while I never had any problem with precedence based rules.

In any case, every feature like this should have an easy way to preview what a change does.

The single threaded nature is a big problem. I have led teams building large RN apps and it is then #1 problem we experience at scale.

The worst bit is that you can only pass strings between threads in JS. Which means you have a lot of serialisation and deserialisation overhead, which can become the cause of UI slowdowns itself, which is a whole world of pain.

Very good and accurate comment. This "native" in react is just an illusion that so many companies are believing.

> The enlightened sit nodding along, while the unenlightened go away confused or misled.

It's the same with maths. It's even worse when the concepts are explained in a circular way. Go to wikipedia and search for a random mathematical concept. I guarantee you that most of the terms used in the explanation have wikipedia articles that link back to the concept you looked up in the first place! Frustrating beyond belief. You need to get a foot in the door and then it's easy, but before that it's hell.
> The IDE/Editor just sends the position inside a document which needs to be completed and the language server responds with all possible suggestions. There's absolutely no need to store an AST in the editor for that. The AST can stay in the language server for that. It's the same for references to types, refactoring commands, etc. Yes, if someone needs some non-standard "data stream analysis" the command and results for that might not yet be standardized in LSP - but they could be added if it's worth it for the users. And I guess one can also have non-standardized optional extension APIs between a language server and an editor. In the end it's the same: The editor asks the language server (which has full access to AST): Give me "a graph of where the variable comes from, and how it's transformed", and the language server responds in a well-defined way which the editor just needs to render.

That would be pretty stupid, though, as every language server would duplicate a massive amount of code.

> because there's only one way for a stand-up fight between a regular military and a guerrilla band to end.

In a political victory for the guerrillas? This kind of absolutism was killed by the Vietnam War. And the Vietnamese success against the French the previous decade kicked off the whole end-of-colonialism thing.

> A military organization, such as that described in this article, seeks to minimize civilian casualties to the utmost possible extent.

This is a PR line, not truth. There are plenty of militaries that don't particularly care about civilians, especially civilians that don't look like them.

> A terrorist organization, such as its current adversary, has no such scruples, and indeed will often seek to inflict as much atrocity on innocents as it can manage. The

Which is again a myth. The IRA would frequently phone ahead to say where and when its bombs would go off. Yes, the IRA killed people, but it didn't seek to inflict as much atrocity on innocents as it could manage. Europe has been awash with terrorists, and they don't all go after innocents - some of them very specifically go after authority figures involved in what they perceive as their oppressors.

> if admittedly at times imperfect care

Words fail me. Doubly so given that the reason we have ISIS as a military presence is because of the 'admittedly imperfect care' of the invasion conducted by the exact same military we're talking about here.
Hi, PWK co-author here. Indeed, Katacoda is a great site to learn technologies. With our playgrounds we're trying to accomplish a different purpose though. Here's a blog post that explains the idea better: https://medium.com/@marcosnils/introducing-pwk-play-with-k8s....

TL;DR: PWK is a platform composed by different components powered by the an open source core (https://github.com/xetorthio/play-with-docker) that allows the following:

* Try new features fast as it’s updated with the latest dev versions.
* Setup clusters in no-time and launch replicated services.
* Learn through it’s interactive tutorials (http://training.play-with-docker.com).
* Allow to run advanced workshops that’d usually require complex setups.
* Collaborate with community members to diagnose and detect issues by sharing your session URL.

The idea is to replicate real case deployments where you need to add/remove nodes to experiment with failures and things like that. You can also go through platform upgrades as PWK allows to run different versions of K8s in the same session.

Additionally, we're planning to launch a training site similar to Docker's (http://training.play-with-docker.com/) to enhance the experience soon. It'd be awesome to get the K8s community help with the content as it's very difficult to scale all this content by ourselves as an free project.

If you need help deploying K8s locally or in your own cloud provider, please let us know so we can help. This is still a very young project, but we think that with some help it could really help the community as it did for Docker.
Problem with Apple's .apps is that they still manage to mess up your ~/Library. You can often find gigabytes of data left in there on your average Mac.

React-Native is pretty good, mostly feels like doing regular React (web) development.

And if you get perf problems, just write things in the native languages with a bridge.

Not THE way to do mobile apps, but if you already know React, it's the way to go.
Yeah, the Clevo I got from Mythlogic about 3 years ago is like that--it's basically a desktop machine squashed into a small package. Which means it's a little heavier, runs hotter, not great battery life (but I rarely take it anywhere I can't plug in, so it's not a big deal really). But it's quite solid and fast. Don't know what of their current offerings would be more Macbook-like.
"So then where is the open source version / extension to Postgres?"

As a concrete example I like the way in the datomic schema you can eliminate bridge tables for many-many relationships using :db/cardinality :db.cardinality/many and then you store or get a vector.

There should be a way to have a super-SQL middleware compatible with any language bindings including a bare CLI that eats "SQL plus some cardinality" and behind the scenes implements the bridge table manipulations. Don't repeat yourself and all that, and many/many tables are kinda repetitive.

There doesn't seem to be anything remotely like that out there.

Doom, Fallout and Skyrim seem like precisely the wrong games to target for VR, unless they remake them completely to use instant teleportation instead of walking.

FPS in VR only works from a static standing point, otherwise the VR sickness kicks in really fast.

Not using native widgets/concepts and single threaded are two distinct problems.

Single JS threads restricts your business logic a lot. If you start doing any serious work in JS, your app will suffer greatly.

Regarding native components, the result is that views just don't look native, animations are not native (even down to different timing functions), view behaviors are different (the RN button fade out on tap is different than UIButton, etc).

On top of that, since the JS thread is responsible for UI rendering and business logic, if your JS thread is busy, UI is "stuck", being unable to rerender until the JS thread is freed.

All these issues pile up to create a bad result at the end. Add to that the human element (not always being mindful of performance implications), and it is worse. But, definitely, the ceiling is very low at how much you can achieve.

I say all these things from experience; I work next to a team of dedicated RN developers at my company. In many cases, the need to drop to native is apparent and necessary, which makes the point of RN moot.

Certainly, RN is better than Cordova; no doubt about that. But it's just not as good as many people want to fool themselves at believing.

Sure, sorry I didn't elaborate my previous comment, it was late here and after re-reading, it feels like a rant. What I meant was that I've tried following Katacoda's kubeadm tutorial (https://www.katacoda.com/courses/kubernetes/getting-started-...) but for some reason it seems not to be working for me. Both cluster nodes never get `ready` after finishing the tutorial, only the master one.

The HTC Vive feels much better than the PSVR. The room-scale tracking and "grappling" hand controls really add to the experience.
