This also probably runs a lot better with this chip and ChromeOS. I have one of those old netbooks myself with Windows 7, and the experience is very frustrating. You can't even switch to a different Chrome tab sometimes because the CPU is too busy loading another tab.

Looking forward to trying it out with my several Ruby tasks. Would be nice to easily setup a CI test on them. I've tried several before but none have been simple enough to use on a whim. Drone may fill that gap.
Guys, I have absolutely no idea what this service is. I know it has something to do with sports, and is your unique take on it to supposedly keep it legal, but when you are doing something that isnt straight forward you need to explain what it is if you want people to try it out. You really need a "how it works" page, because going to the site says absolutely nothing. Also, have a link to tell people what B$ are and actually write out "bitcoins" [is that what B$ are?].

//EDIT: Just saw that B$ are banana bucks. How do people get these and what happens when they "cash out?" I watched your "intro" video [which wasnt very prominent on your homepage] and still dont really have answers to most of the questions I raised

As far as the legality, I really wouldnt be so sure about your 3 prong test, ESPECIALLY if you dont have a lot of money to fight the DOJ. Will they come after you? Depends on how big you get and how well you hide, but if they do come after you, you cant just say "Sorry, we thought it was legal" and shutdown the site and expect them to stop going after you.

When you say, "Furthermore users can’t wager or bet on teams, they simply pick which team they support in a match." What does this mean? Why would a user "pick" a team? What happens if they pick a team and that team wins? What happens if they pick a team and that team loses?
Was the problem that they were "unable to adapt to the new world," or was the problem that they editorially went off the deep end? Readers abandoned Newsweek as Newsweek's quality declined. Perhaps the one drove the other--with fewer readers, it was tougher to fund expensive journalism. But, from the link: "Last November, she featured a cover story about sex addiction, and in May President Obama was shown wearing a rainbow-colored halo with a headline that read ”The First Gay President.”" The Internet didn't do that; Tina Brown did.

Both are essentially aggregators of not-for-profit university lectures. Education is a weird thing. We don't know how to do it well, and we don't know how to ensure it is taking place, but every for-profit university (new online ones possibly excepted, I don't know) is designed to take as much money from possible from consumers who are, by definition, uninformed.

Non-profit institutions have a goal of education and/or research. For-profit education is designed to soak the uninformed, with the exception of education that is for person A, but purchased by person B. In that case, it is possible for person B to be an informed buyer.

Basically, the market for education is subject to many market failures. For-profits exploit these to the detriment of all.

Out of curiosity, what would be a motivation for not including a non-fee-paying transaction in the block that you are trying to generate?

I mean, theoretically, for each transaction that you are including in the block, the longer it would take to hash the block with the appropriate nonce (I believe that's what the 'extra random number' is called?), but is that the only reason for not including them? ie. the less transactions, the less time it takes to test each nonce?

Ubuntu 12.10 may support Cortex A15, but I'm not sure. I know they were working on supporting it, so it's possible.

Comparing Twitter or Facebook ads to Google ads may not be a clear win, but we've been doing that kind of advertising for much longer. The key is for the advertiser to figure out what kind of ads belong on a service (with the company's help), and for the company to find the best way to track the influence those ads have.

Wow. Its just so incredibly obvious that this is just MegaUpload in a new form and that the entire point is to allow sharing of copyrighted data. Kim is hanging this whole thing on plausible deniability but it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out what's really going on. This infuriates me. Sharing copyrighted files isn't what pisses me off. What does is the arrogance of Dotcom to try to pass this thing off like its for legit sharing of files. We have Google Drive, Dropbox, Box.net, Amazon's thing, iCloud and a billion others and no one really messes with them. There's no doubt in my mind that those services are storing some copyrighted data but they don't get messed with because they're truly legit. The feds didn't go after MegaUpload because it allowed people to share files that may or may not be copyrighted. It did so because the worst kept secret on the web was that if you want to download the new Lady Gaga single you could probably find it pretty easily on MegaUpload because that's basically what everyone was using it for. I honestly have no qualms about not backing up my claims with specific examples and evidence in this case because everyone here knows what was going on at MegaUpload and anyone trying to deny is either twisting their minds into a preztel with the mental gymnastics they'd have to do to convince them otherwise or they're just outright lying. I said it.

So now that they have this new approach I doubt they'll be successful. Because of the way the new Mega is set up you can't search for content. Allowing the ability to search for content would necessitate getting rid of their whole privacy scheme. I predict that the new Mega could still be used to share copyrighted files but the onus will be on third parties to keep track of such files in a database or something in order to provide links to people searching or it can just become a safe place to store your copyrighted files and share them on a case by case basis (through email, links on forums, or wherever). But if this really is supposed to be a legit service, which it isn't (come on, you know it), then I don't see how it can gain market share or mind share given the alternatives we already have had for a while now.

Google is kind of the Internet company, and HN runs on the Internet, so...
Great post. And a good point. But there are some exceptions to this.

I'm what you'd call a "super casual" twitter user. That is to say, I don't really use it other than for occasional real-time updates on things (After the NYC-area earthquake last year, Twitter was the first place I went to see what was up. And during the debates this year, I had fun following along with #debate.)

I can't be alone. And in those (rather specific, yes I know) cases, there is some opportunity for advertising, because just like when I use Google, I was searching for something, and to the OPs point, more open to buying that umbrella.

(For example, if a fact-checking group like PoliFact were advertising for me to follow them during my #debate search and "get real-time fact-checking", that's something I'd have totally subscribed to. Meanwhile I found them through sorting through the tweets instead.)

So I suppose it boils down to the same thing as with Google -- I don't really want to see ads when I'm reading Gmail, but I certainly don't mind them when I'm searching. Twitter could focus on promoted tweets / accounts during searches and I don't think they'd have the umbrella-in-a-synagogue problem.

A few years ago I was playing around with some examples from the infamous 1996 article, "Smashing the Stack for Fun and Profit".

I was somewhat dismayed to find all these new fangled protections like ASLR and Stack Protection that made executing simple buffer overflows much more difficult! I realize that these are good things but as a student of security it did raise the bar of difficulty for writing real-world exploits.

You need to compile your programs with the necessary flags to turn off these protections or if that isn't an option you need to try and use various counter measures like NOP slides, heap sprays, stack cookie replacement etc. I wish I had been around to enjoy what seems like must have been the golden era of the 90's when writing buffer overflows was relatively easy.
yea, the us gov't has made it pretty clear that what matters is where the customers are located, so while they dont care if an american gambles online from canada, an american cant gamble from america and then go to canada to get his money.
