Where are sources of carbon monoxide poisoning? The only two off the top of my head are near the garage and the fireplace. You could augment this system with 2 more plug-in type CO monitors that would put them lower on the wall. For any other room that doesn't have a CO monitor right now this is just a bonus.
Sort of like omegle but with different features.

On the iOS app, they are still using the "old" keyboard, not the iOS 7 one. But the app seems to be getting better, which is good news for those using Yahoo mail.
It is like the introduction. It increases the number first approaches but not necessarily the number of closes.
I don't see why it's important that you become an owner. You are helping to fund what you believe is a worthwhile product.

When you buy an Android or iOS phone, for example, you are helping to fund a company. You don't get ownership for that company.

By funding individuals, or small groups, I believe that most are efficiently using the funds, and you are getting products that most larger companies couldn't be bothered with.
Not surprising. I'm sure the feds are pouring over the user information they got from the server files they have.

Big roundup for sure in the coming months. I'm wondering if they're going to go after all the identity thieves who were rampant on the site, or just stick with the drug dealers.

$130 is a tough sell when comparison shopping for alarms, but it's probably a much more interesting value proposition when your damn smoke alarm goes off when you're sleeping/cooking/taking a hot shower, you try to deal with it, and then you look to see if there are any alarms that exist which are not completely inscrutable.

The value proposition vs. the thermostadt seems less "smart vs. dumb" or "ugly vs. pretty" than "comprehensible vs. incomprehensible", or "infuriating vs. not infuriating".
Thanks. That missing y made all the difference. I will wait until I see what upgrades are possible before buying one.
Positioning that accurately would be a massive nightmare due to font rendering differences between OSes and browsers.
You want to develop 32 bit applications? Well I would imagine you would want to develop them for (and why not on) the most widely used 32 bit ISA out there... ARM. ARM has had a 32-bit ISA and hardware using it since 1995, and is now moving to 64-bit with Aarch64. Thankfully, they are doing it a hell of a lot better than how Intel managed the transition back in ~2004-2006 with x86-64, even though they are almost 10 years late to the party. But by all means ARM is 32 bit.

Obviously you meant x86 every time you said 32 bit in your reply. While it is pretty pointless to get into a religious war over processor architectures, I think it should be noted that the base compiling tools such as GCC and now more advanced/cutting edge ones like LLVM/Clang have started to give developers platform independence with cross compiling. As long as the libraries used have support for whatever you want to compile to (and almost all current packages and major libraries have ARM support), you can cross compile to x86 and vice versa. While I'm not a Stallman level FOSS advocate, I do love the fact that having as many open components to software allows this application portability to be a lot easier.
The thing is that I'm more likely to believe its a combination of environmental toxins, food poisons such as artificial coloring and preservatives and incomplete parenting than something that could be treated effectively with more chemicals.
>You can get a warrant asking a bartender to provide you with names, addresses, and arrival and departure times, and transcripts of every conversation of every patron of his bar

No, you can't; the courts don't issue warrants like that. They'd issue a warrant for that information for one particular patron whom they already had reasonable suspicion of.

If the FBI have a warrant to put a bug on one regular's table, that doesn't seem unreasonable. If the bartender's carefully built the bar so that you can hear every conversation from every table and so the only way you can place a bug is one that would also record everyone else's conversations... yeah, I'd say that's unfortunate (and pretty poor design on the owner's part), but the FBI has the right to place the bug they've got the warrant for, and if there's really no way to do that without it picking up other conversations then too bad.
6 truths about exercise that nobody wants to believe
If you have to apply to specific terms, but are able to access everything without complying to these terms, this effectively means that the data is publicly and freely accessible.

Rules on itself don't restrict anything, enforcement does.
And I would like to add that the people building the accelerator play a significant role too.
Presentation matters, whether it is the way you look (naturally), the way you dress, or the way you designed the documents you hand out.
Yahoo! Mail; now with Gmail inside.
It is a bad thing because consumers are so used to that interface and either designers just can't come up with a better one or they don't want to come up with a new one.
Prepaid generally means no contract. Straight Talk and Virgin Mobile are both "prepaid" by the American definition of the word.

I agree with the statement that "prepaid metered mobile data which rolls over and represents less than %0.5 of the market is vastly over priced in the US."
This is not true, there isn't much in ChromeOS that's not in ChromiumOS. You can file bugs on crbug.com and they are positive of most requests. And of course you can fork at any time; Chromium is developed in the open.
We're addicted to the applications that were designed like VLTs. Practically every application feeds into the animalistic trigger, action, reward habit loop in order to retain users.

Advertising and sites that sell user data attain value through eyeballs. It doesn't matter whether those eyeballs are glazed over, sad, and lonely.
I don't understand why this isn't getting more traction. FB are effectively saying they should control what the browser is showing.

He's doing exactly a bit and switch, and he's proud of it judging by his writing.

Let's consider a meat space analogy. Say I'm establishing a maid service. I don't have any maids or cleaning equipment, but I want to gauge interest in the neighborhood by signing people up for appointments and take their billing info. I don't tell them that this is what I'm doing. If I "reach out" to my customers and then say "J/K, I don't have an actual business yet, but I will soon!" that doesn't make it all okay. If I took any money on top of that, that's fraud. Indeed, even if I didn't take any money, taking billing info for a product that doesn't exist without telling customers as much is sketchy as fuck at best.
I can tell you that's not the case.
It's a drop in the bucket compared to the enormously expensive fire sprinkler system we were forced to install by 2010 national building code.
I really wish i could find a use for the chromebooks for my family, but i failed. This one seems similar to the samsung chromebook, which i tried for a while (also lending it to mother, sister, children) but we all found it basically useless for any everyday task.

Surely one can blame the ecosystem; but still the conclusion does not change, and as a comparison, tablets and phones had a more successful approach at adapting or modifying the ecosystem and become usable.

You cannot use an arm chromebook as laptop because of lack of storage, applications, limited options to connect peripherals (no drivers for anything except storage). No way to print that occasional document or boarding pass (unless you have another computer or perhaps network enabled printer); no way to scan a document. The samsung had an SD slot (this one does not); but you could not show videos from your camera because of unavailable codecs (and no way to install them, despite plenty of android apps for arm that play the same formats).

Casual browsing also fails a lot because of unsupported codecs (flash, silverlight); a lot of chrome extensions do not work for arm. Apps, almost non existing.

Compared to a tablet, you get a keyboard and the ability to display multiple windows on screen; but in exchange you lose almost every other sensor or peripheral (accelerometer, gps, camera, light) which make the device useful.

Now if there were at least a sandbox to run android apps, one could (temporarily ?) address the lack of applications.
Other members of society are in a position to correct your social misbehavior. People other than this woman's doctor are in no position to correct her approach to her own, personal medical issues that you are neither adequately informed nor qualified to judge.
"There is nothing stopping Google, Facebook or Microsoft to act as Lavabit did. Nothing at all except for their own cowardice, malicious intents and disregard for laws and their customers."

Emphasis re-arranged by me. May I remind you that Lavabit was shut down in reaction to actions taken by law enforcement, doing something that is almost certainly actually legal? "Regard for the law" here would seem to entail doing what they want. You appear to be simultaneously criticizing public companies for disregarding the law and not disregarding the law.

(I object to its legality, but that does not change its legality.)

GP is right, Carbon Monoxide falls to the bottom, so detecting there is of great essence. Carbon Dioxide floats, so its detectors should be placed up.

NOTE: I meant Smoke detectors.
That would certainly make an interesting A/B test. "Attractive brunette" might be such a radioactive phrase that I shouldn't even be commenting, but I'm sure there are differences between picture vs. no picture, young vs. old, light skin vs. dark, and so on. The only question is how large or consistent those differences are, and the only way to get an answer is to measure.
I'm also considering a Chromebook for my dad. He's quite computer literate but not really happy with his Win8 laptop.

A Chromebook would serve all his writing/email/browsing needs, but the only question I have is about USB peripherals - can you plug your digital camera in and have it pop up with all the pictures? And then a nice easy workflow to upload to google drive?

Also I presume it doesnt play nice with iPhones?

PSD to Genesis Child Theme from Scratch

A little php also involved. Starting theme was the GenesisSandbox Free Child Theme.
There's this alarm[1],which costs half the price , offers talking warning, photoelectric detection and in home wireless alarms through the house(if there's a fire in the basement , you can know at the bedroom.

It would be pretty cheap for the company to offer small gateway that connects the alarm to the net.

The major difference between this and the nest is design, but does it justify doubling the price, especially when you need one for each room ?

I'm guessing that like the Nest thermostat they have an external web site (nest.com) you can register the device with, and then perform config via that site.

I wonder if anyone's sniffed their Nest's traffic to see if it's encrypted?
Oh, nice! I'd put it closer to the sliders and make it clear you can share the saved settings.

I'd also let the user edit it without clicking anywhere. Right now clicking edit resets the sliders too :(

> The mere fact that this works every day for billions of people demonstrates that you're wrong. Flash/Silverlight are easy hacked and yet the content cartels have decided they're enough.

Flash and Silverlight do not provide any real protection and they are certainly not enough for content cartels. That's why DRM solutions are being developed. As soon as the major software vendors will provide complete DRM implementation restricting all levels from user agents to drivers and bootloader, content providers will start to require it.

> Even if the OS starts becoming as locked down, you're still technically inaccurate: a CDM could just be a shim which pass data through to an OS media API which handles the actual playback.

But that shim will not provide any real content protection if the OS is open for modification. For example, someone could make a version of the OS's media API implementation that will allow users to save any media stream decoded by CDM. Thus, the OS will have to be locked down to support DRM, that's what I am trying to say.
Hey Joe, Wayne here with Crashlytics. Our mission is to provide the best-in-class mobile crash reporting tool. We actually do not charge :-) Let me know your thoughts once you've tried it. We power many top apps including Twitter, Vine, OpenTable, Yelp, Path, Square, and many others.

I would also add that people who don't have a medical condition and who overeat cause the stigma people with medical conditions receive for being overweight. If most people who were overweight were so because of a medical condition you wouldn't see as much mockery of it.
Getting the customer to say "Yes" repeatedly [1], and relying on their own internal consistency to make them less likely to change their mind [2], is a well known sales technique.

So this would still be a dark pattern even with an opt-in, since people will mentally start rationalising ("It's a good service for smart entrepreneurs like me to learn from each other") instead of assessing it from scratch ("It's an online startup community I pay to belong to. Is that worth $30 a month? Hacker News is free...").

It's a shame, because if the thing people had paid for had been delivered this would have probably been okay, but as it is, it seems pretty unethical.

Road Trip. Indiana to California, 5.5 thousand Miles. [video]
While this is very cool, I'd like to hear more in regards to how multiple Nest thermostats can work together. Ideally there would be one expensive unit and several other attachable units, much like how you can extend Wifi range. The carbon monoxide detector would make for a great addon unit, a "plugin" of the master smoke detector unit.
I absolutely love my Nest thermostats, and I think they were worth every penny. I'd buy them again in a heart beat. So I have faith that this will also be a great product. But the problem is that my house needs two thermostats, but 12 smoke alarms. If I only needed 2 or 3 of these, I might be tempted. But I can't see spending over $1500 on replacing my smoke alarms. I suppose maybe they don't all need to be replaced, but if it doesn't interoperate with my other hard-wired smoke alarms, it could actually be a net decrease in safety (if the non-Nest alarms start going off and the Nests don't).
Do you really think IT is that much harder than say medicine or the nuances of structural engineering on any of the myriad of other technical areas that no doubt show up in courtrooms every single day?
That does sound like a scammy experience.

Personally I wouldn't mind about leaving my CC details if I was told the entire truth afterwards and then had the opportunity to opt-in again. Any reason why you didn't take the "second opt-in" approach, Adii?
I completely agree with you and the author. It's why I only support crowdfunding projects which aim to freely release their product upon completion.

In some ways I wish Mark Hurd remained HPs CEO. I think they could have really competed with webOS in the long run (be a good 3rd/4th place, making sure the Apple and Google are actually innovating and not becoming a duopoly). Then again, we would never have had the fire sale, and I would never have had the pleasure of working on the Android port to the Touchpad.

I wish they kept Apotheker a bit longer... He had the real potential to be a bigger laughing stock of the technology circle than Ballmer.
So this service is free for everyone thanks to twitter ? What could they gain ?
isn't that an implementation issue? your example doesn't work indeed in the StackEdit link, but

1. Item one

1. Item two

1. Subitem a

1. Subitem b

does work, so that let me think that you just need to improve the parser to consider "a b c" as a valid ordered list, and maybe "i ii iii" at the same time?

(I replaced a, b and 2 by 1 to force the automatic numbering)

Although battery life is certainly important for a smoke/CO detector, as many people will never change the batteries, around here the fire departments recommend putting in fresh batteries every time you change the clocks for daylight savings time.

Maybe they are in league with battery manufacturers, but I feel safer, and have plenty of extra mostly-charged batteries for remotes and video game controllers!

It does seem a bit disingenuous to show that graph and completely gloss over portion of the graph describing how the record companies are (apparently) making half as much as they used to.

To be clear, I don't think that's necessarily a bad thing. At this point I think the record companies can be viewed as quite a bit more parasitic than they could have been in the past. Not because they've changed, but because the ecosystem has changed to provide much of what they offer in alternative, cheaper ways.

Pretty cute, waving at the alarm to shut it up, which is what people often do anyway to try to get smoke from cookie away from it. Would have been more fun to just be able to yell shut up at it, though. :) Although I guess you have a user training requirement for that.
"These and our other results, together with
the failure of whole-genome association studies of g to date, are consistent with general
intelligence being a highly polygenic trait on which common genetic variants individually have
only small effects."

This doesn't seem like a surprising result to me. What is being claimed is not "intelligence is not genetic" but it is that "heritability of intelligence is complex". For something that appears as complicated as human intelligence, wouldn't this be expected?
