To get a feeling for the layout and relative positioning of things. Sure it's possible to do by examining several 2D pictures, but interpreting 3D environments is far more natural, and it would allow the operator to rotate and so on to get the best angle available.

Also, since the camera is moving, one doesn't need to use multiple.

I used to think it was great to take on a ton of things at the same time. Now, I just look to simplify and actually make progress. I have a strip of black electrical tape on the door and I focus on just a couple things each day that are above the line and move everything else below the line that isn't helping me move the business forward.
I'm blown away by the effort put into a single feature, a feature which isn't even unlocked in the basic install of the app. Seriously impressive dedication to getting something right.

Even as a white person I notice anti-black racism quite frequently, and am not sure I'd believe that "we aren't that racist", although granted it's certainly better than 20 years ago. I've since moved away from Georgia, but I was often shocked at how much worse my black friends there were treated than I am, in a whole range of circumstances, ranging from employment, to interactions with police, to interactions with shop owners. Afaict, there is still quite strong and systematic racism in many parts of American society (worse in parts of the south than elsewhere, but not exclusively located there).
> Using a JVM destroys any perspective of cheap and easy deveployement.

I doubt that. The fact that jruby is close to bug-by-bug compatibility means that for most projects you can go and develop on mri or rubinius for fast development and use jenkins/travis/... to run your testsuite against jruby. You can then do integration tests as well as staging on jruby to catch anything your testsuite didn't catch. I've seen more than one large project take that course of action and do just fine.

Deployment on jruby isn't any harder than deployment on any other ruby. It's still "puma start" or whichever server you chose. You can however package your app in a war use a standard servlet container such as tomcat or jetty to deploy, but that's strictly optional.
In some situations the form factor of a ball would be useful. E.g. in a fire, a ball is much easier to fireproof, or in a military situation a ball is far less noticeable.
If you don't want to set up graphite and don't mind paying for a service, I've really enjoyed using Scout. (http://scoutapp.com) Cron jobs report to their app every 3 minutes and they have very nice ad-hoc graphs. They also have some indispensable configurable triggers that have saved us multiple times.
That'll Never Work
It's a great idea.

I'm most interested in how they'll bring the price down though, since development of this product doesn't look cheap.

It looks like this would need to be priced similar to a disposable item. It's safe to assume that these ball cameras won't be retrieved even remotely as often as they're thrown -- imagine firefighters stopping on their way out of a burning building to retrieve their ball camera -- so the best way to convince potential customers to buy en masse would of course be to price them low enough that losing a bunch of the cameras won't be considered throwing money away.

I'm really curious what that price point would be in order to still turn a profit.
dbul, we definitely agree! Almost every brand in our closets is manufactured outside the United States. Companies like Patagonia are leading the way in striving for local manufacturing at scale, but there it is difficult with the traditional retail model, given most companies margins. This is where we think being online-only will really help.

But you don't know the demographics of who voted in each state. Just because a previous phone poll shows which party they admit to being privy to, doesn't mean that those were the demographics that went to the polls this week.
Competition is a good thing IMO. Nothing wrong with not being #1 everywhere.
Google Update Removes Select Location Option from Organic Search
As long as the quantity of good submissions varies consistently depending on time of day, there will be times when more good submissions are competing for a fixed amount of frontpage time. Thus it's unlikely you could eliminate time-of-day effects.

I like your second suggestion though.
What are you basing your assertion on? I indicated an inclination. It's inherently an opinion. You made an assertion of fact.

I'm one of the Californians who voted against this proposition. Why?

Because once someone has served their time and their probation the idea is that the state is saying their debt has been paid and the state no longer believes them dangerous. If that's not the case then there's a problem elsewhere and you're just treating symptoms (futilely I might add).

An even bigger problem is presented by the "etc." If it was the convicted child molester and rapist list that would be one thing but the etc contains a lot of other offenses that don't justify restrictions designed to stop child molesters from repeat offending. Maybe there should be a proposition to split the lists by the a
Specific offenses so at least these measures could be targeted better. This prop also played fast and loose with the definition of sex offender IMO.
To think that there is one absolute best, and that it is the only version of something worth having is, to put it nicely, inaccurate. Curtis did not explicitly say that every other flatware was inferior, or that people who purchased them were inferior, but there is an implicit superiority in his post that does not sit well with the community.

It could be that readers feel offended that their choices are cast in a poor light, but there is also the deeper issue that Curtis is wrong. While there exists poorly designed or constructed things in this world, there is a diversity of application that leads to a variety of well designed things. Point me out the best car, the best socks, or the best apple, and I will tell you how it is not.

A tale of how one should spend a year finding the "best" knife is absurd, unless one wants to be a knife historian and write a history on the field. The best knife in the wrong context is worse than the worst knife in the right context. Obviously the flatware is a parable, but spending all your time evaluating "the best" is poor advice. Life is messy: JFDI
I wish you good luck. We are doing something similar, just in a different niche (accessories) and getting the growth you would get by selling wholesale is tough but doable.

The "Made in XYZ" does help but only if the product is truly superior. Are you going to sell individual shirts for $29 / each?
These are both good points.

(1) When I refer to standard form elements, I am actually referring to two separate things: the standard interaction for this particular type of option and the native element for supporting that interaction. I believe your argument is that we could have made custom elements that supported this standard action (e.g. checkboxes) that may have performed just as well or better than the native elements. While this is certainly possible, the point was intended to be more about the standard interaction and less about the native elements. Of course, the native elements are nice because they support these standard interactions and they are easy to maintain.

Although it wasn't shown in the blog post, the faux selects used (custom) checkbox buttons for selecting multiple options once opened.

(2) I originally intended to mention this, but ended up cutting that paragraph. As you point out, the faux elements were designed to save space, which is why they didn't have labels. Part of the standard form interaction is having the labels above elements, so that's what we did. However, in retrospect, I wish we had tested the label and element changes separately. I suspect each of them would have shown an increase in conversion.
Hey William, I saw the name "From Holden" and knew right away this must be someone from Holden, Maine. I'm from Brewer and just wanted to say congrats on getting the ball rolling on your new venture. There aren't many people coming out of Central Maine doing this type of thing. Hats off.
Ink mainly changes the color of light that passes through it. Nail polish absorbs and reflects light at its surface. If you look at a deep pool of red ink, it looks pretty close to black because it mostly absorbs light instead of reflecting it. The wording could be clearer though.
Why not put it back on the poster who asserted without evidence that affirmative action will cure "gang violence, intense poverty, substance abuse, neglect, and trauma"?

I will allow that it could. But we've had this deal in place for fifty years.

If you've got a program running, and the problems keep getting worse .. maybe it's time to check one's assumptions.

At any rate - I'll go grubbing around for the facts. Later tonight. Now I've got lunch to eat and work to be done. I've got a tax bill to pay.

It's on the charts because it's "free". The overall rating is only 4/5 stars on itunes. They use the annoying model of making you buy tools like color as in app purchases.

Notability, which has some similarities, sells for 0.99 without in app purchase nonsense and is rated higher.

I'm really bullish on lean manufacturing and vertically integrated startups, and I love that their using CA cotton (my family owns a ranch in the valley that grows cotton) ...

but I'm really skeptical of these startups that say "we're going to disrupt [Luxury Designer Brand X] because we can make the same shirt and charge less". Correct me if I'm wrong, but most of these brands are riding on their brand equity, not the superior quality of their apparel.

It just seems like a bad way to position yourself, IMO.
I think it's unfair to say that androidpolice downplays the lack of LTE support. I completely understand if this is a big issue for you. But most people do not have access to LTE networks anyways, so isn't it understandable if a reviewer does not make a big deal out of this?
We are also in touch with the dev people at meetup.com voicing our concerns about the ease of automated group scavenging. ;)

I was staying in Shenzhen China a couple of weeks ago, it is completely obvious why google is not popular - every other search request I made is slow or just white screen dies. I would not even think to use another search engine normally but even I used Baidu whilst there. Far far too painful to do anything else.
There's no point in redesigning the chicken, because we already have quite a few kinds. And yes, they are already optimized through primitive genetic engineering techniques for various characteristics useful to humans: early maturity, large breast size, egg production speed, taste (or lack thereof) and so forth... not all in the same variety, of course.

Diversity builds resilience. When the genome development environments go online, I recommend that we open source the chicken and let a million variants cluck. Now, BSD, MPL or GPL?
Can we please stop using "sexy" to describe tech work? It isn't sexy, it requires a LOT of knowledge and a LOT of critical thinking. That it gets called "sexy" and is "the thing that teens and twenty-somethings flock to" just shows the culture we have here. "Oh that's cool, I wanna try it!" 90% of the people who ever start in "tech entrepreneurship" are going to fail, because they have absolutely no idea what they're doing, other than following the trendy train. Drives me nuts.

> At first sight, it seems hard to make a primary ordering of programming languages, because they focus on different areas (ease of use, speed of development, performance etc) and ordering those disjunct areas against each other seems to be impossible. However, it is still possible for a programming language to focus and excel on all those areas at the same time.

I disagree. There's more than ease of use, speed of development and performance to determine if a language is "better" suited to a problem than others. And they're all trade-offs to some point. So to excel at one means that you fall behind on others. Prolog is still used heavily in some areas since it's a natural fit to logic problems. It's just pure logic theory modeled in a programming language. It's a pityful language to solve most "real world" problems, but it excels at what it was made for. So is it "better" than ruby? I don't think so. Is it possible to write a language that models logic problems so nicely as Prolog and still keep the ease of use of ruby? I very much doubt that.

Supreme Court Rejects Hearing For Pirate Bay’s Peter Sunde
The nail polish is opaque, which means it reflects or absorbs light that hits it. Red nail polish reflects red light and absorbs the rest. Shine white light on it, and it will look red.

Ink is transparent; It lets through or absorbs light that hits it. Red ink lets though red light and absorbs the rest. Shine white light through it, and it will look red.

Shining white light on a black piece of paper with red ink on it will look black. What light is not absorbed by the ink is absorbed instead by the paper.

Of course red ink reflects light, as you say, but that is just because of reality. It is not essential to its function. If it were possible to make a 100% non-reflective ink, it would work perfectly well.

I hope this clears it up :)
Oppression requires a power imbalance. Racism only requires using race as a classification upon which you base your actions. Choosing who you hang out with simply based on race is racism even though ut is not a power imbalance.

And you can act to counteract an institutional imbalance caused by racism without furthering racism. Focus on something else. Race is being reinforced as an accepted means to classify people and that is the root cause of the problem.

Absolutely agree. Our brand is now almost two years old, fashion bloggers love it, people pin our products like crazy on Pinterest and so on. But we clearly can not charge prices like established brands do.

Opera wanted 10.000 of one of our products as giveaways last summer but of course when we told them for how much we can sell them (we do not produce in factories because we want to keep our quality as high as it is) they didnt go for it.

Even when amazing boutique shops ask you, they will want 50 - 60% off if you ever consider selling to them. We do have our products in some shops just because its good promotion not because we really make money with it.

I don't want to sound negative but there is a reason why so many brands go cheap. We don't because its basically my wife's full time hobby, we want to sell products we are proud off and we are not dependent on that income.

We have about 10 tailors and another 5 leatherworkers working full time by the way, so you get an idea about the size of our operation.

All the best with your venture.

It doesn't help that through affirmative action reparations, you are effectively trying to right the sins of long dead people on other long dead people.

I like the two supers up poster on this. Target lower socioeconomic individuals born into poor areas with intellectually hostile circumstances. Don't discriminate on that.

The circumstances that brought the current crop of humanity to populate the Earth were beyond our collective wills. We just need to deal with what we were dealt to the best of our ability. That doesn't include trying to right racism and discrimination for 300 - 5000 years by doing the inverse.
If a policy benefits poor people in general and more black people are poor it would stand to reason that it would help more black people. I think that the problem with AA is that it attempts to treat the entire country. A better solution would be to concentrate efforts on the poorest communities with the largest percentage of black population. Once those cities start to succeed it would help turn around institutional bias. I don't thank that AA has helped reduce bias, it seems like it has served more as a cosmetic measure. I could be wrong.

Indeed, most people don't move. I won't be able to put my finger on it now, but several years ago, I read a statistic that a huge percentage of people are born, live, and die within a 20 to 30 mile radius. College attendance, military service, sightseeing vacations and travel for work all bring us out of that circle for a time, but we tend to return to it afterward.

My brother has his radius whittled down to about 10 miles. I, on the other hand, live about 800 miles from where I was born and grew up, and have no expectation of returning, but then, I always was the black sheep of the family.
Honestly, the driving force behind all of this is that we thought it was an interesting question which tells you about how people view food. My favourite answer so far has been "Don't redesign the chicken, redesign society to better use it."

In most of their typical police/fire/first responder scenarios the users already have enough other things to do and track that they don't want to be trying to control an RC device as well.

It's also not advisable to assume that the users would be highly trained beforehand. A major benefit of a device like this is the fact that it is a very simple unit that is easy to deploy to get a quick and easy view of the environment around a corner or at the end of a tunnel.

Additionally in fires you have a lot of air drafts from the heat, making controlling an RC device even more challenging.

Countering institutional racism is reactive. It isn't passive like affirmative action is. I think he is describing facilitating courts to allow the discriminated to sue the discriminators, and given sufficient evidence charge them with racial discrimination.

I do agree with him though, you don't repay racisms of the past and present with more racism in the opposite direction.

I don't get the hate for in-app purchases of this kind. It's just like the shareware model that used to be popular: lots of people get absolutely free usage/enjoyment out of the base product and then, those who specifically want more, can pay—in this case a very small fee—for it. One constantly hears people clamoring for more choice, for example, to pay for just the cable channels they want. So what makes this model "annoying nonsense"?
Well compared to the cost to train a new firefighter or cop the could cost $1000 each, all be thrown away, and make a profit if the person using the used less than say 200 in a 10 year span.

The calculus is if you Know that there are no one in a room in a fire you don't go in there and risk injury or death. One, one week stay in the hospital is about $105,000 ($15,000 a day) so they can be "expensive" and cheap at the same time. The parts will set them back maybe $35 per ball. And since they aren't mil spec they don't have to be enemy jamming resistant or able to withstand being shot.
