That doesn't answer the question of how they could make GPs inaccurate only in a specific area.
Minor nitpick about the voltage: How many chips at this level (at the border of micrcontroller to microprocessor) actually use more than 1.8V for internal logic? Other than a few chips that have on board power switching from 3.3V, I can't find any other CPUs, DDR3 RAM, or even CMOS cameras (720p+ chips) that don't require a 1.8V rail.

For prototyping a divider with 1% resistors would do just fine (although with some instability with a bad breadboard) and if you can't find 1.8V power parts for production you have much bigger problems. As for level translators, I've found they are almost inevitable on any design that uses enough chips and sensors.
The problem of capitalism is that all agents want (amongst other things) full vendor lock-in. Sadly that's been our general direction for the past 50 years in most aspects of life, and there seems to be little hope for reversing the machine in thr short term.

The GuileEmacs project never really getting off the ground with much momentum is probably the only reason I still use Vim. ELisp just kills any motivation I have to 'make emacs my own'.
I haven't found that, or anything even close to that, to be the case at all. Maybe it's a geographical thing? I'm on the East Coast and from what I can see, if you have a "hot" skillset (Hadoop/Big-Data, MongoDB, Clojure, Node.js, Angular/Ember, etc.) you won't have any problem finding a job, regardless of your age.

Personally, I'm 41 with 15+ years of IT experience and I have never felt any sense of age discrimination at all. But, I'm also constantly working to keep my skills current, and I do a lot of things to make myself attractive and known in my area - speaking at events, writing articles, blogging, etc. shrug

My feeling is, if you're sitting at 15 years of experience and you've been, for example, writing Java code for 15 years, go pick up a Scala or Clojure book, or learn R or take the time to learn Hadoop, Spark, Storm, Kafka, MongoDB, etc. If you have skills that are "hip" at a moment in time, I don't think it's usually going to matter much how old you are.

OTOH, if you are a 15 year Java programmer who is still writing Java 1.2 code for a JSP based app that integrates with a COBOL book-keeping system on an IBM S/360, and you refuse to even look at that "new fangled" Java 1.3 or newer, then yeah, you might find yourself in a tough spot if/when they decide to turn off that mainframe.
I've never used Google wallet- but how could Apple's UI be worse? All you do is tap your device. How did Google Wallet work?
> Maybe it's just me but I'm not drinking the kool aid about Apple Pay in today's announcement.

What does this actually mean?
Safari is the only browser that implements HLS except recent Android. Chrome does support H.264 in HTML5.
Unlock screen. Inactivity timer. Lockscreen alert message. Wifi configuration. Notification center.
There's another option, root and load a custom Rom. Not only will the phone run leaner (and in theory faster) but it won't have the bloat. The only investment is your time. =]
H.264 is still not part of the open web.
> You should also remember that he was hardly in the majority with those comments. Further he was technically correct, and the iPod succeeded because of a synergy with other parts of Apple's empire (notably iTunes).

I think that's a very weak argument, as iTunes wasn't available for the PC market for years. The Mac market at that point was nascent and lots of people were buying iPods w/o the ability to use iTunes.
If they implement whatever transaction API is required by your wallet..
Yea... this argument started to go south as soon as I realized it was 5pm. Surprised it is only at 0 TBH

if the watch is being redefined as a medical/health device its in the right direction, but using it for other features like navigation or picking up a call, there is very little value in those.

In case the device moves more towards health app domain with many health apps developed for it, then only health conscious buyers will be the market.
That website looks good. Thanks!
Would definitely recommend showing a message akin to 'no images detected' in that event.

This is not how it works. When you write code, you are the owner unless you sell/disclaim all rights. You can contribute your code under a license, a license DOES NOT TRANSFER RIGHTS. Just because something else went wrong with the licensing of other code in the same project does not mean you lose your rights to the code.

Now, in the bukkit project there's two sources of code:

1. Mojang owned closed-source
2. Contributions made by commiters under the LGPL

Then it was distributed in it's entirely under the LPGL. Source #1 clearly is incompatible with this, and this is an issue. However, this has NOTHING to do with the fact that all contributions were licensed by their rights owners, THE CONTRIBUTORS, under the LPGL.

Just because you contribution was distributed with something that's incompatible with the license it was distributed under does not mean you lose the rights to your code.
All these comments saying it's a good thing™ that Microsoft will buy it make me a bit sick. Have you forgotten so easily? <hate>It's MICROSOFT. Here are some other users' comments that sum it up:

- Sorry, you can't build any more wood blocks today! Would you like to buy an extra 10 wood blocks for 99 Mojang bucks?

- You Died! (Respawn for $2.99?)

Next thing you know they release sequel as an exclusive for their shitbox</hate>

It's incredible luck that such an innovative (not Apple innovative, but really innovative) project is maintained by a company like Mojang. And it needs to stay that way. Being avid player, I really don't want Minecraft to become DRM-infested crap Windows became (still, Windows is a very good day-to-day OS, kudos to them). Not to mention their last attempt at gaming: GFWL (yeah, we all remember that one).
It's up to a court to decide what your rights are under the law. Signing a piece of paper does not mean a court will enforce anything written on it.
I _never_ use mods not in 3 years of playing Minecraft. There are a lot of us who don't use mods. Your statement is a broad overreach.
I think tdicola's point is that, unlike any other watch, having an iWatch in your wrist immediately signals you also have an iPhone 5 or higher tucked somewhere in that moment --since the watch, stupidly, only works tethered to an iPhone apparently.

As it happens, this kind of wealth signaling is a legitimate personal safety risk in many countries today, esp lower- to middle-income ones. In those countries, very few people can afford to wear expensive watches; and when they do, they just don't wear them around everyday in every public setting --more like for special occasions, private parties, meetings, etc. Note the risk is not just 'merely' mugging: it can also be kidnapping (you or your loved ones), 'doxxing' you and your family and emptying your bank accounts and so forth, or even extreme forms of assault --beatings, rape or death. So it's kind of a big deal.

iPhones, on the other hand, can be carried and used discreetly at all times, in non-conspicuous cases and using hands-free earphones --that is, until now, if you happen to be wearing a beaming iWatch right on your wrist, thus defeating the whole point.
Pebble Steel owner here since early shipments, and traveling without a charger is meaningful. The U i beats the rest! and the look does too.

That said, it seems like Apple has taken each category of wearable, advanced it in some meaningful way, and merged all of them, for a device more than a sum of the others. Really depends how it feels as to whether that's true.

I'm guessing these could get derided as "fondle-wear" because the interactions seem intended to be touchy-feely. Reaching out to "tap" someone, or "sketching" instead of texting your S.O., these offer a human/device bond of some kind. Clever.
Of course. The documents of zimg is written in Chinese so you don't know how to use.

1. Using curl and multiform way can post file to zimg and will return a html result:

curl -F "blob=@testup.jpeg;type=image/jpeg" "http://127.0.0.1:4869/upload"

If you don't like upload files via multiform way, you can use raw post way. Use this command to upload image via raw post:

curl -H "Content-Type:jpeg" --data-binary @testup.jpeg "http://127.0.0.1:4869/upload"

You need tell zimg a header "Content-Type", the value is the type of image.
This way will get a json result and the error message is in the table below:

{"ret":false,"error":{"code":0,"message":"Internal error."}}
{"ret":false,"error":{"code":1,"message":"File type not support."}}
{"ret":false,"error":{"code":2,"message":"Request method error."}}
{"ret":false,"error":{"code":3,"message":"Access error."}}
{"ret":false,"error":{"code":4,"message":"Request body parse error."}}
{"ret":false,"error":{"code":5,"message":"Content-Length error."}}
{"ret":false,"error":{"code":6,"message":"Content-Type error."}}
{"ret":false,"error":{"code":7,"message":"File too large."}}

2. Upload and download access control. Just modify conf file like this:

upload_rule = 'allow 127.0.0.1;allow xx.xx.xxx.xxx/xx'
download_rule = 'allow all'

The conf rule is like nginx.

3. Sorry for missing English documents.
> (3) fumbling in your phone in order to then open the correct app.

This isn't directly tied to you or your argument, but whenever people talk about about smart watches, 'fumbling with your phone' seems to come up. I can't recall the last time I thought of checking my phone as a hassle or felt like I was 'fumbling with it'.

That being said, I am excited to see what developers come up with for smart watches (either platform) and am interested to see how the haptic* feedback performs.

* I know Apple is calling it the Taptic Engine, so I'm not sure if we're supposed to be calling it taptic or haptic feedback, especially since it's not entirely haptic
Most young people can work and generate an income, many old people cannot. It probably takes a bit of aging/having your skills becoming outmoded to start understanding this at an intuitive level.
They don't need a new game or sequels. 1.8 just came out, it was months in development. All they need to do is come out with releases, some small, some large, add new stuff where it makes sense and as computers and game systems pick up the power to handle the additional computations. This could go on for decades.

cash wears out easily, it can be hard to have exact change.

I agree with the psychological effect of spending cash compared to a card (digits don't mean as much as handing over a bunch of paper), but things like IC cards are great for people who hate fidgeting with change (this is especially bad in places like Europe/Japan where a handful of change can end up being over $20).

And it's not like cash has disappeared. This is one more option.

I think HLS is pretty awesome and this hasn't anything to do with HTML5 as what Chrome supports doesn't allow for live streaming, which is why sites like Twitch still use flash for Chrome. Chrome should support HLS, but they aren't going to for anything but Android, so flash it is for the foreseeable future. If anyone knows why or where I am mistaken I would like to know.

It's amazing, the variety of attitudes and opinions on this thread. People don't spend this much energy arguing the fine points of war and yet, it really is just a watch.

The promotion is genius. Not sure about the watch, but if the chatter is any sign, it's already a success.

According to this paper here (http://mbe.oxfordjournals.org/content/14/8/800.full.pdf) the mutation rate in the Ebolavirus is comparatively low for an RNA virus, two orders of magnitude less than in influenza or HIV.

We have brought highly transmissive diseases, like measles and rubella, under control with vaccination; both of these happen to be caused by RNA viruses. There will be a doomsday epidemic in the future, but Ebola won't be it, at least not for the West. Ever-more common antibiotic resistance in common bacteria is much, much more reason for concern.
Ask HN: How to convince my boss to use Angular.js

To those who are concerned about mainstream adoption of a watch like this, I remind you of the Pebble Kickstarter which was one of the most successful in Kickstarter history. And all those contributors had no guarantee that the Pebble would see the light of day. There is serious demand for a watch that does even what the Pebble originally promised, which is still far far less than what the Apple Watch has now proposed to do.

I have been a Pebble watch owner for over a year, after having given up wearing watches around the time I owned my first cellphone. I have come to feel the same NEED of having my Pebble on as I, and everybody else, has with their phone in their pocket. All of the quirks of the Pebble and everything that I have come to realize is missing with the Pebble, is addressed elegantly with the Apple Watch. 'Canned' and voice responses to messages... Huge. A non-obvious alternative to the classic vibration (which is obvious to people nearby when using the Pebble) in the 'tap' technology... also clever and smart.

This Apple watch is clearly not intended for people like you and me. You won't see James Bond wearing an Apple Watch and you won't see NASA strapping them around the sleeves of space suits like an Omega Speedmaster. This is another piece of electronics that will look as dated as a CueCat or dot-matrix printer fifteen years from now. A classic timepiece, on the other hand, will retain or gain value over time. I bought my Rolex Submariner for about $6000 in 2009. Just five years later, a new Sub costs close to $9000. The value of used Rolexes is even higher. I wouldn't be surprised if my watch has doubled in value.

The Apple Watch has its place: it's an alternative to a Suunto or Garmin training watch, or an everyday watch for people who wouldn't spend more than $500 on a timepiece. It's a fashion item but it's not jewelry. Like the original iPhone, its scarcity may create an initial aura of exclusivity but things will die down once you see a 14 year-old on the bus wearing one.
I agree with you. I'll be seeing some of my friends tonight that own Samsungs, and I can already hear the derisive "hah Apple is playing catch up and ripping off Samsung again". Nearly everything is derivative in some way or another. I just don't care either way.

My personal preference is apple. I have other apple devices, I'm used to apple devices, and they are comfortable to me. But if you like Samsung, that's cool too.

And I don't like the meme that says I, as an apple device owner, criticise everything else "the competition" does yet celebrate it when apple do it. I'm not that person, and most people I know aren't that person.
I've looked around at all their docs and still can't find this number. Almost like they are hiding from something... I wouldn't imagine a full Atom can get anywhere close to running off a standard USB port 500 mA, like the Beaglebone Black or RPi.
