Except that at least back then, all you had to do was pay to upgrade your tv and you got the content.

Today, not only do you have to buy the new TV, you have to hope your ISP has enough bandwidth to deliver the content, possibly pay more for that, then hope that your wifi network is high-speed enough to deal with the new bandwidth requirements.
To elaborate, in contrast to the official tutorial. The trick it plays on you, by hiding most of the list, is really nice when you first land on the page.

I guess I like the bite sized chunks and the organization by concepts.

Although, I never know when there is more info about the current section under the fold.

I hope thats helpful.

> The principal disadvantage of B2B is that the long sales cycle greatly increases the time until you get feedback that your product sucks

Waiting to sell until after you've built something is just as foolhardy in B2B as in B2C.

The equivalent winning strategy in B2B is to pitch the idea to the first customers before it's even built. If you can't convince them to commit, you pivot. If you find excited customers, they become your close feedback through the whole dev process.

Atypical early adopters may steer you wrong, but that can happen in the consumer space too.

Do you use hadoop much?
For a small to medium displays at typical viewing distances (this includes most "big screen" panels you can buy at your local electronics shop), 1080p meets or exceeds the limits of the typical human eye's resolving power. Without using a projection system and a large screen or a stupendously expensive (>100" diagonal) flat-panel, 4K is a subtle upgrade at best.

When video is encoded with insufficient bandwidth, compression artifacts (e.g. macroblocking) are anything but subtle. These artifacts typically are not constrained to one or two pixels, but ramify to much larger portions of the image. Netflix has, by necessity, used insufficient bandwidth on practically their entire library. My money is on Netflix's over-compressed 4K being inferior in quality to Bluray 1080p for the vast majority of users.

At least he acknowledges a weakness of the Silicon Valley clone efforts.
The selection of brand comes from more large-scale trends in failure, like what OCZ went through with some of their Vertex drives. They were firmware bugs rather than degredation of NAND that led to a more sudden bricking of the drive and loss of data.

A properly functioning drive will last ages now. Not all manufacturers produce the same rate of improperly functioning drives, so that's where the discrepency in product exists.
How do you get the data about trains location?

Pay to upgrade your TV, hope you lived in a market with a channel that broadcast in color, hope you got good enough reception to receive the color carrier, maybe redirect the antenna on your roof with someone downstairs yelling "the picture looks good now!". Maybe you needed to even get a new antenna with VHF band coverage instead of UHF... Technology has never been easy.

There are already a group of drone companies in Detroit. I've met several of them. They want to be able to fly over the city but so far have been blocked.

http://www.crainsdetroit.com/article/20140330/NEWS/303309969...

Giving them a large area to test would give the city a huge advantage over the rest of the US and I believe drive more drone companies to relocate in Detroit where they would find cheap real estate and an abundance of engineering talent.

I think Mark Andreesen undoubtedly knows this and that is why he picked Detroit for his example.
Rehabilitation of old computers is a pet topic of mine - I still have pretty much every computer I've ever owned, from the Oric-1 machine that got me going, to the Atari Portfolio with onboard C compiler that I used for many great things in the 90's, to the BeBox that I boot up every year, my old O2 that is still sitting there, in all its 200mhz glory, just because .. but one thing that has always kind of bugged me is that I missed out on the Amiga revolution, having gone from developing at first for my home 8-bit machines, directly to Unix and machines like the MIPS Risc/os Pizzabox .. which then led to SGI, and so on.. so I feel like I missed a serious aspect of the computer revolution by not ever really having much Amiga time .. all my mates ever did with theirs was play games, and I was much more interested in coding the thing than anything else.

So every few years I get the urge to have another look and try to figure out what all the fuss is about. It seems like MorphOS is a good way to do that - but I have to say that I'm a little disappointed that its crippleware, although I understand that with practically no market for their work, the MorphOS developers have to make a buck somehow.

Anyway, one thing that has really helped me get a bit of that lost spirit of Amiga computing has been the Open Pandora console: http://openpandora.org/ which is, essentially, an emulation paradise .. this allows me to run the UAE emulator and others, as well as a veritable cornucopia of emulators for other systems .. plus, its extremely portable, to boot.

I even once ported BCPL to the Pandora, just so I could get a working EDSAC emulator, grin..

For anyone else interested in archaic computing platforms, the underground movement behind the Pandora can be a very comforting community to join.

Still rocking and the highly stylized graphics makes it great family fun with my daughters !
Probably my favourite game ever. Played mainly by die-hard experienced players. There's always talk of the game dying off, but still, here it is alive and reasonably well! The graphics would not impress anybody who is used to modern multiplayer games, but the gameplay is second to none. Easy to learn, difficult to master. And great fun to boot. Give it a try!
Sorry about that; working on it. Hopefully the english version will be able to skip those loading.
If the documentation will be on a hosted site, I would recommend adding the ability for supplemental usage examples of the API provided by the community. Comments on php.net's documentation site and on apidock.com have been helpful for me in the past. Obviously, user usage comments are not always helpful, but sites sort the comments based on what other users find helpful. In my opinion, having the primary documentation with supplemental community supplied usage examples is the best way to do documentation.

This was a good article.

The comments seem to focus mostly on the financial aspects but I found the portion regarding how time is spent interesting. (True, the article does tie them together to an extent).

As far as financial poverty... my personal opinion is that "finance" is too widely regarded as an unalterable given that is intrinsic to the human condition. Certainly the concept of money has produced a system that has advanced human control over our environment, but a bit of perspective suggests it is a concept that we did without for tens of thousands of years. And, I suspect sometime in the future we will do without it again.

Maybe not "poor people need money" but rather "hungry people need food" might be the type of larger and more directly useful framework to address some of these problems within. Certainly we are at the level we should be able to provide basic food, clothing and shelter to all members of our species and no one should suffer and die from want. If we aren't doing this, given what we have and what we can do, then there is something wrong with the system and this needs correcting before we will be able to move much further. IMHOP. Maybe the thing that got us here (the concept of money) is becoming a conceptual problem that is now keeping us from advancing further. I don't have a fix. I just see what I think is part of the problem.

OK, I can't find anything on Google on the latter, and only something on the former from three years ago. If you're saying that with 1 billion views in the past three months alone and across dozens of hours of content in that time there's a possibility that someone might interpret him something he said as making jokes about the holocaust, then yes, I believe /that/. But I'm not sure his intentions are evil or that he is a bigot or a hateful person.

This illustrates the point of dimishing returns with regards to ever higher amount of total pixels on a screen.

Doesn't mentions compression artifacts, though. Thus - at the same bitrate - higher resolution images might look worse than lower resolution ones. Which is what I think the OP meant to highlight.

Claims are supposed to be written in the form of one sentense. Claims are not instructions on how to construct the invention, they are a legal definition of the scope of things that would infringe the invention. The language used is supposed to be precise, not generally easy to read prose. Reading a patent properly takes some training and experience, just like reading any other technical literature.

I was an Amiga fanatic. Spent every penny I had on my first Amiga (and then again on my second Amiga), and loved everything about it. But, here's the thing: Linux, which I discovered not even a year after giving up on the Amiga (I bought a Windows 95 PC in 1995, and mostly switched to Linux as my primary OS the same year), is (nearly) everything I ever loved about Amiga...only moreso.

It has a fantastic user community, even better than the Amiga, that focuses on great technology over marketing. It has a great developer community, with even more available code to study (and in fact, a lot of the stuff I liked most on the Amiga was derived from UNIX utilities). And, it has a hacker mentality above all else...doing novel things with Linux is expected, respected, and supported (just as it was on the Amiga and the C64 before it).

The only thing I've never quite gotten from Linux was the way the Amiga always treated the arts as a valuable part of the computing equation. Sound and graphics Just Worked. Linux has had an awful, effectively unusable, sound subsystem for its entire history...and still does, to this day. I recorded more music with my Amigas in maybe four or five years than I have in nearly 20 years of Linux use (I still reboot into Windows to record music).

Anyway, my point is that I loved my Amigas. But, it's not something I want to use again. I'm impressed that a small team is delivering a functional Amiga OS clone, but it's not an OS that I would want to use daily or develop for. The fact that it's not Open Source is just one more reason why I wouldn't have any interest in it.
The language is precise and defines the legal scope of the invention. The claims are not supposed to tell you how to implement the invention but to definitively define what is and is not within its scope. All areas of technical expertise have their own language to convey precise ideas, and the law is no different. Just because you cant read it doesn't mean it's not understandable.

Yeah, I've been curious for a while as to how "zero day" morphed into its current, completely unrelated non-sequitur meaning.

That is a good point, as long as it can only be done after it self-bricks and it only restores to read-only then I cannot see a problem with regards to my earlier point since any consumer is going to notice pretty damn quick that they cannot write to the drive.
Yes, they could, but they haven't. They haven't gone mobile first, integrated payment, put pricing up front, etc.

The same thing can be applied to so many industries.
Las Vegas got it's start because of the gambling money, but it has maintained itself as nationally relevant over the years despite it's inhospitable weather and isolated environs due to low taxation but also because of the "hands off of business" stance that the state has taken which is helpful to a diversity of industries other than just gambling, ask Zappos CEO about it.

In my opinion it's not a terrible choice of a place to launch a startup either because you could poach employees away from both the Bay Area and LA job markets by showing them what kind of spacious luxury highrise accommodations they could be enjoying for similar money to what they spend on their 600square foot rental in the City. The fact that they'd pay no state income taxes just makes the job offer all the more enticing. I suspect there's going to be more of this kind of thing going on in the future especially as Zappos continues to invest significant funds into renovation of certain districts.
It takes less than 5 minutes for someone to tell if a published work (particularly in a journal) is prior art. As long as it was made publically available before the priority date (the date the provisional application was filed anywhere in the world [that is a party to the Paris Convention IIRC]) then it's clearly prior art. Any judge would throw out the case.

I wouldn't call the current usage a non-sequitur. Zero-day exploits being those in use before the vendor and general public have been made aware of them. Presumably, a 1 day exploit would be one published on the day the vulnerability was announced. It seems like a fairly natural application of what was, at the time, a pretty well understood terminology.
One thing that I've noticed about people who are awkward at conversation is that they may be fine with WHAT they say, but they often don't know WHEN to have a conversation. For instance you probably will not have great luck making a friend if you interrupt them at their desk while they are concentrating or are in the middle of a conversation with somebody else. In fact, there may not be very many times at work or school when people are receptive to talking. I have seen a quiet person who never spoke a word to anybody suddenly make a grand attempt at conversation just at an awkward moment, only to go back into their shell when the other person wasn't able to talk just then. The thing is - most people would actually want to make a new friend, but you may freak them out with poor timing.

Some people are good at breaking the ice and chatting in any situation whatsoever. These are charismatic people who don't need help making friends. For the rest of us, we need to stack the deck in our favor.

So when exactly is a good time to talk to people? In my opinion that's when they relaxing and having fun. So, how do you implant yourself into those situations? As other have said, joining a club or doing some activity is really the best way. If you are out there doing things then you simply will have many more opportunities to talk to people. Sharing an activity will not only give you that opportunity to meet people, but you'll have something in common to talk about as well.
