Afraid a Celeron isn't very competitive with an i5, even at the same speed. At least not comparing to similarly clocked computers running here. A dual-core Celeron based PC here is significantly slower than a similarly clocked i5 Mac Mini.
Its Tough! Most of the companies in the space are valued for their ability to go out and get all the content owners on board. Music Rights is one big messy area that has sunk in years of monitoring and legal hours. Apple lead the way and showed everyone how to bring the order to the system and sort of opened the doors for all others.
So, to answer your question, i think there is no shortcut other than talking to people in ownership OR go with existing APIs like Rdio.

>I don't get it. My reading is that MS will sign Linux distros for a lifetime
fee of $100 per vendor.

That's besides the point. It's that Microsoft - a software vendor - is suddenly
the authority over distributing and signing keys for what amounts to a hardware
lock mechanism that prevents you from doing whatever the fuck you want with
your computer, all in the name of a false pretext of security. This is
insanity.

>Also, as far as I can tell a user (or an OEM) can just go into their UEFI
settings and turn off secure boot, then install and boot completely unsigned
anything.

The problem is with what you've conveniently placed into parentheses - if the
OEM decides to not give you the ability to turn it off, you're fucked. A
hardware vendor should not have the ability to tell me what the fuck I can run
off it. I'll admit that this is getting into slippery slope territory, but I
can see a lot of OEMs using this "feature" because, hey, it worked for Apple -
it can't be that bad⸮

Apple should make new version of HyperCard for iOS. Take some of the functions of Automator, add a whole lot more access to OS functions, media and have people make their own Apps.

Throwing together a program in a fun interface would be nice to get all those people creating, rather than playing Angry Birds on their way to work.

Let them combine their Garage Band songs, photos, videos, art, and writing into a nice little package that utilise functions of the device, their computer, Apple TVs, etc.

I'm not a programmer (and never used HyperCard) but I'm sure I could handle making something like: When [my Location data] is within [Y radius] call [vibrate; play song], [show this picture; display text "You've arrived at your station!"

Or I could prototype a point-n-click adventure with graphics drawn on my iPad. Or I could tell it to play an alarm every morning at 7am, then take a photo. Backup photos on X device. On the 365th day make all photos into a movie. Add text "A year in the life of [ENTER NAME]"

I think Apple needs to remember the reason a lot of people bought Apple products in the first place was because their simplicity allowed the technology to get out of the way and let people create. iPhones; social networks are all one-sided consumption, and people are getting bored. They love making stuff.

I think if Apple doesn't give people more of this kind of creativity, then people will flock to whoever does.

...Even cooler would be a combination of Project Glass and that LEAP system. I could be drawing blueprints, shaping 3D models, or making programs in augmented reality. It would be cool to look into a room and see dimensions of all the walls - see virtual previews of furniture in the scene; pull and arrange table sizes, shelves, bend and alter models. Then you could package it up to make a catalogue for other people to browse and choose options from.

I'd have a stack of cards, media files, functions, etc. in front of me. Draw lines between objects, stack, rearrange cards, manually code some parts. Some kind of combination of making an art collage and a circuit board.

Hmmmmm....

Deferring life is a risk. And there are degrees of risk. If your plan is to work consistently at an average job and defer life until 65 there's the risk you die first, but at least you had your weekends free.

If your plan is to work double hard and smart on something that may pay off sooner, there's the risk you burn out and the opportunity costs of those additional working hours (not spending time with friends, family, hobbies, for instance).

I saw a show on TV once, and don't remember what it was, but they had a guy in the middle of nowhere working his butt off every day. He said something to effect of "I work like a horse so that my children can work like dogs, so that my grand children may work like humans some day". That stuck with me. I realised I could have it much worse, and the only reason I might not choose to work like a horse is because I earn more than enough to be pretty comfortable working my 8 hour day. But the rewards if I did work like a horse... And if somebody else can do it, then I can push through the half-starts and frustrations you mentioned.

"If you want to hide the image behind a thumbnail or a black/white outlide and require an explicit click, fine."

Fortunately, that is exactly what is being proposed [1]

I belive SOPA, PIPA, et al, were more about online piracy. However here in Austraila we reciently had to fight againt a proposal for manditory internet censorship, who's reason for being was precicly: "Think of the children!". But just because trying to protect children has been used as a cloak for some pretty unpalatable things does not mean that everything done in the name of protecting children is automatically bad. For example child labour laws were done with the express goal of protecting children and you would be hard pressed to find somebody that would argue they are a bad thing.

Instead we need to think about what is being proposed and evaluate each case it on its merits. Having a knee jerk reaction against filtering is almost as bad as having a knee jerk reaction against porn.

In this case:

* The filter is opt in, not opt out.

* No images would be permantly removed, only hidden

* The feature should be visible, clear and useable. Its not going to silently hide things.

* The principle of least astonishment for the reader would be applied.

I belive that this presents a quite acceptable trade off, between making all information avable to everybody and as you put it - censorship. The tool is there for anybody who wants to use it, and if you don't it has no impact on you.

For only $70 more, Google also sells the Galaxy Nexus, which is a similar Samsung device but contains more storage, runs a lot more apps, can make or receive phone calls and data over a cell phone connection, and even includes a high definition display, and a (removable) battery, and NFC, and all in a smaller package.

Since the Galaxy Nexus can use a keyboard and mouse over Bluetooth and run a 1080p display over HDMI, the advantage of the Chromebox is that it can run multiple displays and connect external storage devices.

With Ubuntu for Android scheduled to be released later this year, a logical progression is that Google's future home appliances and mobile devices will run the same exact operating system, rather than two different ones.

However, Android is supposed to be open and has many different App Stores like Amazon Appstore that compete with Google's Android Play (Android Market), while Chrome O.S. will allow Google to own the entire purchase process (like Apple), which benefits the consumer by allowing them to purchase an app they already own on their iPad, Android phone, Mac, PC, and XBox a 6th time.

No userspace can be wrapped quite nicely:

In fact we don't really need processes, just suitable environments set up for execution of code. For example, stop a lisp definition calling eval:

I've not tried this btw and it'll probably only work with scheme dialects.
Yes I admit that but for the scope of discussion, it's rather hard to separate the two.

> Both theories are, to me, frustratingly intangible

Yes, and it is frustrating. However, like you, a lot of laymen assumes that these theories can be explained in terms of analogies with "everyday life" things. I recently watched all of Richard Feynmen's lectures (the easiest to understand is "the character of physical law" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Character_of_Physical_Law),and in it, he explained, quite well, what it means to have a mathematical law. It goes on to some detail explanation of what quantum chromodynamics is, and how photons' behaviour cannot possibly be analogous to anything you can experience at the macro scale.

I understand your frustration (since i feel the exact same) - why is it that we have advanced so much, and yet still have no idea what inertia really is? Or mass for that matter. We know how to predict things from using various mathematical laws, but i think we are no closer to understanding "the truth", than 100 years ago. Perhaps it is impossible.

or perhaps, in the next century, or the next millenium, humans will look back, and see today's physics being just as primative as what we would see the cavemen's theories of the world is.
Raspberry Pi makes products like this completely obsolete. I see nothing here worth paying an order of magnitude more money for. Google seems to have a really bad habit lately of building products that nobody wants.

Slight modification...

HDs haven't replaced tapes yet. And probably won't for slow read but massive storage. They handle the functionality of general use with 20GB tapes but that's some ways off current multi-terabyte tapes. And those might increase storage capacity faster than HDs. So server OSs will have to maintain compatibility.
Running elasticsearch with Tomcat on Jelastic
I've been working on problems at various scales from subatomic to galactic scale and about everything in between. At some point, when you're genuinely interested about what you do, you build mental bridges between domains and scales and values and units, you... connect some dots. You start understanding what a log/exp is, what that "shooting through the roof" profoundly means. By understanding I mean you start feeling it with your gut. So when someone talks about one Zm I could take it as a pure value, but I could try and get the feel of it. It's overwhelming, so much so that I can physically feel the cognitive weight of it on my mind. So when I make some conversion and find that 1Zm is about 100'000 light years, and I know (whatever the light-year value means, I take it as pure, transitional value to an item of knowledge) that the Milky Way is about that size in diameter, only then do I feel the absolutely immense size of our galaxy. I must insist that it's no more the vision of the galaxy that gives weight to a Zm to me, but the Zm that gives the incredible sense of dimension of that pack of matter.
Yeah sure, so it was just an unbelievable awesome coincidence that both towers collapsed in a way which normally takes demolition experts weeks if not month to achieve. And then there's building 7, which also collapsed in this perfect way and it didn't even get hit by a plane. It may very well be that the fuel burnt hot enough to melt the steel but it hardly explains the way the towers collapsed, not to mention building 7. It's just ridiculous.
Majority of these mini PC's used in conference or meeting rooms, as an easy way to hook up PC with TV. However, next month when Apple announce to open Apple TV as an development platform, there will be an interesting convergence of mini Pc's and tv boxes. Which will probably lead to long rumored Apple TV box.

You don't know what this Chrome box do because Google doesn't know either. Companies threw hardware and see what developers can do, and see where it evolves.

Ourdiamondenggeezerhoodworkforcet ring
That's not by accident. Exclusive partners gain that status by agreeing to help subsidize the product in some way, shape, or form. And they want their money's worth, so they (the partner) make sure the contract lasts just long enough for you to not care after the contract ends. Of course, the first party is hoping the product catches on, is insanely popular, and continues to drive demand after the contract is up. That doesn't always happen.

So, it's a catch-22. Do you as a first party go it alone, and incur more cost, or curtail your retail spread and take less of a hit up front? From the disinterest in the retail Chromebooks, Google made the right call there.

That said, I wouldn't have minded a CR-48... But it was a little costly, and the other models were a little too wimpy. I'd think Google would take a risk by taking a loss on one huge product push... But I guess not.

>all in the name of a false pretext of security

How is it false? Rootkits are a real danger, because they can be undetectable by any antivirus you can run. It's funny because many of same people attacking Microsoft here turn around and claim that Microsoft software is insecure and recommend you switch to OS X/Linux!

>if the OEM decides to not give you the ability to turn it off, you're fucked

In order to qualify for the Windows Logo, OEMs are REQUIRED by Microsoft to give the user the ability to turn it off or add their own keys. As such, UEFI software will have this feature anyway, so I seriously doubt any OEM would not do that, since they aren't saving anything and only the tech savvy will mess with the settings anyway.

Everything about this product is bizarre. My prediction: low sales. Google does not understand physical products very well.

The problem started to haunt Microsoft as well -- there are (simple) cases where their files don't open up correctly in slightly different versions of Office. In fact, I've recently had to open some .doc files with LibreOffice instead of Microsoft Office (on Mac) because of this.

It's not the same graphics card either, although they're both bad enough that you probably won't be playing intensive 3D games on them.

Show HN: Encrypt text into a url on the browser
According to this page:

http://www.spacex.com/press.php?page=20120530

It parachutes down from 10,000 feet, at 16 to 16 feet per second - which means it spends almost 10 minutes at the mercy of the wind (I'm guessing the re-entry thrusters probably don't get used while it's parachuting down?)

That means that even if they can drop it onto the atmosphere accurately, the actual splash-down point can't be determined any more accuracy than they can predict the wind velocity along the parachute path.
In other news:

"Profitable trendy app vendor shows off about how they can afford to piss a month up the wall while their clients are paying for it"
Looks like there's major spin on this on that page.

Whats a Intel Core(TM) processor? Dig deeper and it's an anemic Celeron, not a Core i3 or i5 or i7 as the name implies.

Why is there no mention of storage AT ALL? Because it's a 16GB(!) SSD.

The Amazon page says "No Blue Screens"? What happens to ChromeOS if RAM gets corrupt? It doesn't crash and magically keeps running? Most BSoDs nowadays are due to hardware issues.

Edit: Why the downvotes? Is it forbidden to criticize Google here? Or is it just Google employees? Care to reply instead?
Yeah, but it seems like one of those tools you write because you want it to work your way, not necessarily because it doesn't already exist. I have a few of those: tools that already exist but I wrote my own for fun or because it fit my workflow better.

Also, the Windows version of cron and the like is not as developer-friendly, IMHO. I do not see why this could not work well on both systems.
While definitely an interesting development in computing, I find the advertising used disingenuous.

They advertise "built-in anti virus" all over, when the truth probably is that there is no anti-virus at all. You can argue that there is a lack of need for this and as such advertising for a device without mentioning anti virus at all would make it seem "unsafe" or confusing for the less technically inclined.

But still claiming it has things it doesn't just to make the marketing department's job easier is in my books disingenuous. It's factually inaccurate. It's a lie.

To me it sounds like "Macs can't have viruses" all over again: It supposedly is safe and "has anti-virus" because it isn't Windows. That's pretty cheap and far from factual.

The Raspberry Pi is targeted squarely at enthusiasts (which, granted, is probably most people here).

It comes without an operating system, any storage, a case, or even a power supply. This is a huge, if not insurmountable, barrier to entry for a large portion of the population.

The Chromebox is a turnkey, plug in power, plug in TV, surf the web product. They couldn't be more dissimilar.
I think it's too expensive to be a good choice in any country, especially India where I assume it will cost even more than in the US.

I assume you are selling some software solution to your customers and they also need hardware to run it. It might be a good purchase for some companies but at this price they can also get a standard desktop.
Why do you thik there's no antivirus? There are antiviruses that run on unices, like ClamAV for example - it's open source, they can include it for free - maybe they did.
Great idea, but the implementation seems to lack UX thought. So many clicks to sign up and know what you're actually signing up to.

A quick user feedback session could help fix this. I assume this is a rival feature to Gumroad's approach in the States?
You can't possibly be serious.

There's a tiny little thing called the operating system which makes significantly more of a difference to the overall experience, performance and value of a computer than a few GHz.
I learned hyper card in 6th grade middle school computer class, 1996. It really was great... I created games.
I wouldn't say that's strictly true. The Chromebook OS most likely has anti-virus in the same sense that Mac OS X does: A remote kill switch.
Do it the same, but place certificate signing under the control of a neutral party, and mandate that OEMS allow users to load their own certificates into their own UEFI, possibly with a self-signing process that allows that motherboard, and only that motherboard, to boot a given user-signed image, with self-signing only possible from within the UEFI UI, so OS-level malware can't generate valid certificates.
Running multiple processes is what multicore CPUs really excel at. When I want to OCR a 500-page .PDF file without hosing other tasks, a quad-core CPU makes a tangible difference.
The UK store doesn't have any of the new generation Chromebooks and especially not the new box. So, select countries means only one: USA.
