I have a residual background in biochemistry from some high school science fair work, and what you described is absolutely amazing to hear! The fact that ATP is made by a "mechanical" force is pretty mind-blowing (although I suppose everything is "chemical" in the end at this scale).
Wow #4 is a really good question. Your examples from the past all sound a little bit like "people using tools that seemed at first like toys but turned out to be really important."

Your guesses for the future don't quite fit that description except maybe the cloud stuff, but that's actually gotten pretty mainstream. It might have been a good example from 5 years or so ago.

Thinking about it some the best thing I can come up with is interpreted/dynamically typed programming languages. It pains me to say this though because I kind of believe in my core that compiled/strongly typed languages are the way to go for large projects. But maybe that's just me holding on to the past? I'm not sure.

Really really good question.

Seems to me this is a _great_ reason to use Kickstarter. You get a solid core of pre-purchase data (complete with credit card billing info ready to rock) which lets you much more accurately gauge demand _before_ you need to finalise manufacture/logistics.

I'm in the first batch of the ZPM Espresso machines via Kickstarted, which blew out past their expectations by an order of magnitude, and allowed them the opportunity to re-jig production methods and schedules, based on ordering 10 times as many parts as expected.

Interestingly, the relative weakness of reserve currencies has made this plausible in a real way. As the debt risk of countries becomes closer to the strongest multinationals it creates the possibility for the debt of multinationals to be lower risk than any currency it can be denominated in, which happened briefly a couple years ago for the first time ever. In effect, the debt instruments are currency.

Right now, governments have the ability to inflate their currencies to pay for their excessive spending. If non-governmental instruments become stronger than reserve currencies then it will create a novel situation where they can't inflate away the debt even if every other government is doing it. That is new territory. Companies that generate and preserve value on a global basis will have financial instruments that are de facto currencies, much in the way gold is.

That would be an interesting time.

Sweet. We should talk. I run a similar project at http://www.rtcool.com/
The concluding paragraph is a bit figurative and inexact, but the article overall was a fun read.
On one hand, old wisdom creeps in: "if you really want something done well, do it yourself". But on the other hand, if they happened to fail selling at raspberrypi.com, everyone and his dog would be accusing them of hubris and suggesting they should have relied on "verified distributors".

The only thing I'm a bit sad about, is that probably the distro companies will evade any consequences. And even if they didn't, it would probably hit some random guys and not anyone really responsible for the incompetency.

Edit: I think I would feel some evil (bad, bad me!) satisfaction if R-Pi Foundation would punish the distro corps by not letting them distribute any further batches of R-Pi for as long as possible. But again, that would probably hurt most the common employees, not the management.
And if you dive in the French Law a little bit, you will find out it's far from being entrepreneur-friendly. You will get massively taxed on any profit, and employees' rights are so large that you could be sued if you need to cut down your resources (even if you do on pure economic grounds).

Definitely not a place to build a startup. That's one of the reasons there are no high profile startups in France: there's way too many obstacles, most french people who are serious about creating one usually leave the country.

Edit: oh, and I forgot that, in France, making money on your own, is very badly regarded. You would be assumed to be rich and evil, by default. (I am not inventing anything. Just check french forums/newspapers whenever there are economic news).

The electronics suppliers are not used to this kind of traffic. I remember Ti's website grounding to a halt when I was first in college when they released a new kit for free, and in the past when they have done coupons for half off certain high value items. Interesting side note, Ti for its free samples uses Digikey to process them (same address, same exact boxes, packaging and onetime when I ordered a free sample I got Digikey note rather than a Ti note :P)

The traffic for those websites generally is very low, I can't imagine that they are ready for anything to what they are seeing right now.

I do wish they had also launched with Digikey my favourite electronic parts distributor. Their shipping is always top notch and their service is absolutely fantastic.

Even if you have the same system fonts and plugins installed, the order in which they are reported may be stable on one system but differ on another (due to filesystem inode layout). The EFF's Panopticlick FAQ [1] suggests that Flash and Java plugins should alphabetize the font lists reported from their APIs to reduce variation.

Video: BBC Interview with Dr Eben Upton of the Raspberry Pi Foundation
Ask HN: What would you do with a Raspberry Pi?
The Raspberry Pi device is aimed at kids who need to look beneath the gaming layer and start learning to code. However, I'm interested in potential applications that a low-cost, low-powered SOC board could do.

So, playing to its strengths I thought of these two scenarios.

Turn any TV into a smart one - with a HDMI 1080P video outlet and using your telly remote (CEC) to control it, it seems an ideal candidate. Most TV's also have a USB port so it could be powered over that.

Remote displays. Now Apple have started to bundle Airplay mirroring, could be a cheap wireless display where cables cannot reach. Perhaps a cheap Nagios status dashboard for sysadmins.

I don't think it's powerful enough to drive an MS Kinect.

Does anyone else care to share ideas?

A self-employed person can deduct health expenses against gross income. You are correct in that COBRA cannot be deducted in this way. But it can still be taken as an itemized deduction. I'm not a tax accountant, but my tax accountant is. Another gotcha: if you're taking the 60% markdown on COBRA from Obama, then no, you're not allowed to write it off at all, but I wouldn't be complaining about that.

The interesting part about this class is that it is a lab class, yet it is trying to be accessible to anyone and everyone around the world. It will be interesting to see the logistics of how the MITx people handle grading, forums, homework, questions, and all the hard systems problems when 6.002x finally gets underway.

The other question is how will this compare to 6.002 as it is currently taught at MIT - will 6.002x be at the same standard? You as a student in 6.002x won't have the same chance to interact with your classmates as in a traditional MIT course, so can it be considered the same type of class? This all remains to be seen.

"Linus Torvalds arrested for Suse security death threats".

Every time I think of travelling to America again, I read something like this and think... nope, not worth it.
how would they handle RMA? RMA for such devboards are very common, even the TI folks had several issues with the recent BeagleBone...
To be fair, they did point out that it would be "smart and reasonable" to make a donation to the EFF and Public Citizen over this. So... I think they might have something in mind. I doubt they're going to let it pass by quietly.

That company gave them a really pathetic excuse, too. They admitted to knowing their DMCA bot wasn't good enough yet, but they let it issue notices anyhow. A place like that is going to end up digging their own grave one of these days, even without TechDirt's help. I mean, I went through their notice and it looks pretty sloppily put together. There are some 555 URLs listed on that particular notice: https://www.chillingeffects.org/notice.cgi?sID=189468

And it's very hard to see how the TechDirt post got in there, because it doesn't seem to match any of the relevant keywords. They appear to have tried to take down material relating to some movie called "Innocent High" and a group called "Team Skeet." Except that they got a lot of other random releases by Team Skeet in there, so there's what appears to be a pirated DS ROM or two, a release of Desperate Housewives and some other random stuff. It does look like stuff that's infringing upon someone's copyrights, but I have to wonder if they are "the copyright owner or am authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed" with respect to all of those things, which they swore under penalty of perjury that they were. Just what copyright interest does this place have in a crack for Kaspersky antivirus, dare I ask? There are also random PasteBins, but those at least appear to be links to torrents.

There are also a few other items which do not appear to be infringing on that particular notice: item #255, which is some random forum thread on AnimeSuki where people are discussing a high school related anime, a news article by the Independent on that cruise ship captain (#250), and some digital graphics site (#251) that seems to be completely unrelated to anything.

So yeah, I don't see why they'd sign off on statements from some broken keyword matching robot, knowing that it wasn't very good.

Companies do have "currencies" that can hold value independent of FX - secured bonds. Otherwise, commodities take the role of liquid non-fiat value holders. Substituting a government-backed currency with a corporate-backed one is a terrible idea given that a corporate is subjugated to a sovereign (and pays its debt in sovereign currency [ignoring the marginal role in-kind bond payments play]). Thus, one is accepting an inherently inferior proposition.

It should be noted, though, that many multinationals' bonds trade healthier than many sovereigns' currencies.

What is your criticism here exactly, given that you find this "ironic"? You call for transparency - that's exactly what the published tool provides.

I think the understanding is that advertising is required for many free things on the net (including Firefox), but that unless advertising behaves in a reasonable manner, and the user has some control and understanding over it, it'll be self-defeating as everybody will go start running Adblock, Ghostery, etc.

Do Not Track works due to exactly the same economics. I think there was a public statement that if Do Not Track were enabled by default - no-one would respect it.

There is no conflict of interest here. You either self-police or you're shut down.
I'm happy to see linux computers being sold at all.
Amazon deals with this too. [1]

The TL;DR is that Amazon will take back units, and if they're marked as bad (presumably by the customer), Amazon holds on to them in their center, and can then ship them back to you.

It's basically exactly the same as normal retail.

On 32-bit machines, you can disable mmap randomization (and thus library randomization) using ulimit -s unlimited.

For 1000 dollars a month you would probably get a much better deal in many places around the world, like in South East Asia. You'd get better weather there, too, and decent internet access. Not sure about the visa situation, though, but for sure getting a work visa in France is not easy and takes time.

I can't say I can hold zero blame for the rPi gang on this clusterfuck.. offloading the task was never going to help, it should have been obvious RS/Farnell were not ready- Amazon were the only retailer that could have handled it. But I don't see why they couldn't have handled the orders themselves (Amazon again?).

Apparently someone from RS sales has now said they aren't selling any until the end of the week! How insanely disorganised.

And 10K was also clearly never going to be close-- there were even far more forum members than this. I wouldn't be so grumpy if they didn't make me get up at 6AM for this crap.

Protein for Building Muscle
As we know that body building is not an easy task it required a proper knowledge, consistency, hard work etc. for building muscle doesn’t mean doing heavy lifting you need to load some protein also. So be careful regarding your diet what you are consuming is it good diet for you or not. Protein is very much essential for building muscles try to consume maximum protein in your food. This will gain your muscles fast.
No, not really.

Not only do some of the example's seem to be created specially to show the benefit of the JIT compiler (see pisum fe). Most of the example's do not really use the features of LaPack/BLAS, the one where it does (a matrix multiplication in rand_mat_mult) shows that all languages which use these optimized libraries beat Javascript and handwritten C++ with a magnitude of 2.

Thus, be careful with making such a generalisation from this benchmark. Also, it is much simpler to simply work with a language with proper support for multi-dimensional matrix slicing than having to do this all by hand.
Amazon has a complete plan for returns, and handles them for you.

"Returned unit is added to your inventory and designated "Unfulfillable." You can create a removal order to have the unit returned to you."

Of course there is a cost to having Amazon handle everything, but I'd happily pay a little more for a board I could order through Amazon.

My guess is that the current batch will stay exclusive to the current distributors, but this mess will encourage the Foundation to add new distributors for all future product.

So the distributors will have some consequences: a smaller share of future orders.

One picks their partners. It's certainly not the first time things have gone badly wrong when picking a partner, and you'd think that as a bunch of techies they might have seen this coming.

It's clear they chose their partners based on their manufacturing chops, rather than their retail chops. To be fair, RS Components has a huge customer base in the UK; it's basically The Place You Go when you need electronic components in large quantities.

Arguably what Raspberry Pi could/should have done was use Arduino's model of having licensed manufacturers and they could have sat in front of it, and, as has been suggested elsewhere in the thread, just ship giant boxes to Amazon to actually do all the dirty work. This would have covered the US, Europe and Japan (if you ship to all Amazon's fulfillment centers), which would have been plenty I think.
I totally agree. My statement about simple vs. easy is actually a weak attempt at restating some of the principles that guided the design of Clojure (from Rich Hickey's talk "Simple Made Easy": http://www.infoq.com/presentations/Simple-Made-Easy) JS is approaching big apps with Node.js, and Clojure is approaching browser JS with ClojureScript... not sure how it will play out.

What are the current trends in language use? Are people moving away from Python, Java, and C++? and if so, to what?

I've been a shareholder since 2007 and I would seriously consider selling if they offered a dividend. Offering dividends is not what true growth companies with good plans for the future do. FWIW, I'm far from risk-averse; I wouldn't invest in a single company that offers a dividend due to the implied lack of growth and innovation that is implied by giving away retained earnings that could be used for R&D, strategic acquisitions and new business initiatives. In Apple's case, this includes new markets/products, increased retail exposure and strategic exclusive supply chain deals.

I hope, for Apple's sake and our own, that they don't offer a dividend anywhere in the near future, if ever.
