You should have a look at Nvidia's K1 dev kit. (edit: guess that's not 64 bit...)

Nvidia's dev support team is great. Using the Tegra Dev pack on a Shield is by far the best NDK environment I've found.
Did you know computer chips are infinitely more efficient than they were a century ago?

They too are a product of applying new discoveries and then engineering around the constraints of physics.

Things change. Progress is made.

>How much dangerous are the neutrons from such device?

Fusion neutron (14 MeV) from fusion reactor is exactly as energetic as fusion neutron emitted by a neutron bomb and causes equal damage (just distributed over longer time). They have 10x as much energy as fission neutrons and travel at speed of 52,000 km/s (17.3% of the speed of light). Neutron capture before they hit and damage magnets, electronics or wear out materials is important part of the fusion reactor design.
When profiling games, using FPS to measure performance increases/decreases is kinda silly. For example, going from 25 to 30 fps (5 fps increase) is a bigger performance improvement than going from 90 to 120 fps (30 fps increase). Much better to use frame times.

I've been very happy with LastPass too. I use it on my desktop and pay for the mobile app. But what I don't get is why we still need to use a password manager extension/app. Why isn't it built into the browser yet?

Google already has all of my passwords saved, and synchronized online across devices for whenever I use chrome (well, the passwords I used before switching to LastPass). Why can't it automatically generate secure passwords for me just like LastPass does?

I am sure they will exchange it, but the key problem is the support system which requires me to speak to them in person to initiate the exchange process. The waiting time is never less than 35 minutes. I have a few dev devices and always have to go through this. There is no alternative system in place. And I always have to go through a lengthy process to even get the phone number. On Amazon I can do everything online in a number of ways and get called by their customer rep.
Well, it's certainly encouraged by Apple, and it's getting to the point where they aren't interested that "supporting all these sizes without using AutoLayout is hard."

How's the performance? I have a first gen Nexus 7 that's getting really slow, and this looks like an interesting option to replace it.

Is it faster, or at least comparable to the Nexus 5? I rarely use my tablet right now as my phone is considerably faster.

Hospital Automation Made Easy
That's possible, but the Shield has a K1 varient with 4 32-bit A15 cores on the chip while the Nexus 9 has a varient of the K9 that has 2 64-bit Project Denver cores. The graphics are identical between the two versions of the K1 so I don't expect much difference in the GPU benchmarks, but I expect the CPU benchmark comparison to be interesting. On one hand we'll have four 3-wide conventional OoO cores. On the other we'll have two cores that are initially narrow and in order but are 7-wide VLIWs once the code morphing software has had a chance to run.
Dear Google, Please announce a 'Nexus 6 Mini' someday in the near future. Just trim the screen size to a sub 5" level and price to sub $400. Rest all features are welcome. The reduction in battery size proportionately is acceptable.

- Sincerely, A long time Nexus user !
Most android handsets are sold as candy and not fruit and vegetables. More GHz, more pixels, more mAh, more inches. Why should this be any different?
Does this mean they won't be releasing a new 5" nexus this year?
> A phone just under 6". This is possibly the biggest disappointment about the phone. Its simply too large for the average user.

Quite a large portion of the people I know with phablets like the Galaxy Note series are petite women -- people with smaller hands than "the average user". While the line you present is the exact line that Apple kept trotting out while they were in denial about the market demand for large phones, I don't think there is much support for it. Its true that there are usage patterns that work for small phones and not for larger phones, but I don't think the evidence from actual consumer behavior supports the argument that these are as important to what people are looking for in smartphones as the people who keep trotting out the "too big" argument like to believe.
> In hundred years, people will laugh at these phones!

In one hundred years, people will laugh at all phones.
Everywhere I go I see people charging their phones: at work, at the airport, in coffee shops, in the subway station..

Modern consumers seem to be perfectly fine with trading all-day battery life for better display, and manufacturers are perfectly fine with the higher margins that come with better displays.
What do you mean? It has been known for days that the new Nexus units would be announced today.
I don't understand your comment. Are you saying people who prefer thinner/lighter phones over longer-lived phones are misguided? Maybe they have different priorities than you.

I don't see how this relates to regulating a child's junk food intake. Do you think companies should decide what we can buy?
You can use autolayout (see my NSLondon talk, which discusses this in the Q&A). However, there's no way to make autolayout run asynchronously, so you won't be able to reduce main thread stalls caused by autolayout-driven calculations.
In this case the alt keys appear to be the size of two letter keys. We could steal some room from there. Maybe I'm just too picky, it's a small form factor.
I would think that few are interested in speed tests of clojure directly.

Specifically, I don't think it is a belief that clojure makes things slower than not using clojure on the jvm. At that point, the concern is jvm versus native. And there are plenty of those comparisons.

Quickly googling, looks like I may be a wrong, though. So, tough to say.

Go study up on the Osborne effect for an understanding of why Apple goes for secrecy on new products.
Well, again, I get the feeling that you're perhaps unknowingly defining "innovation" to mean "improving the things I like".

For one, I do think that these larger phones bring about new use cases that leave room for innovation. There is much more you can do with a large phone, such as having more immersive games & apps, make a phone viable for note taking and media consumption, use multiple apps at the same time (if you are so inclined), and all sorts of other new things that would be finnicky at best on smaller phones. Not that those are all self-evidently good things, but at least they seem to be innovative.

Whereas a longer battery life doesn't get you anything new. It means you can do the same things, but now you can do the same things for two days instead of one. That's a good thing, sure, but it's not innovative.

As a side note, bigger screened phones really do tend to have much longer battery life. These two things aren't opposed, they seem to go hand in hand.
> Oh, the same Anita that previously got caught with making fake death threat against herself, the standard feminist tactic these days.

This is bullshit, there's not the slightest bit of evidence that she faked anything. Sarkeesian supposedly fabricating attacks against herself is a gamergate meme that's repeated as fact long before this thing happened and it's always been completely ridiculous.
For most purposes the Chromecase doesn't really act like an hdmi dongle. With Netflix for example, the chromecast does all the streaming directly from Netflix. The Netflix app on the phone just tells the chromecast what URLs to play. Once it's streaming, you can power the phone off if you want.
The Nexus 5 is still a really nice phone.
From the article sounds like it will happen:

This service will be offered in the United States and there are also plans to bring it overseas
i really like it. I use voice control for everything. at first you feel like a doofus but eventually it becomes second nature. I also plug the chromcast into the hdmi input, so i can swap and PIP all kinds of stuff (also with voice command), and the upnp (local media streaming) implementation is really good too (having frustratedly used the 360, ps3 versions for years)
There's actually a wide variety of noise in the data, but the one that really matters is altitude (the barometer can measure the altitude difference between your feet and your head)! Other sources of error are the biases in the sensors themselves (place two phones side by side, get different readings), pressure-controlled buildings, sensor drift, etc.

We have a number of mechanisms to filter out most of the noise, but it's not easy.
It won't be a hundred years though, it'll be one or two years and then that new increased battery life will sell another phone. So if screens increase sales now, it might make sense to focus on them with the knowledge that battery life or something else will be the next feature that drives sales.
> I've had people tell me they could tell the difference between 720p and 1080p at 20 feet. That is physically impossible for the human eye.

Well that would depend on the device. If it's a 5" phone, then yes, obviously. If it's a 21" display, also, yes. If it's a 75" TV, probably not.
I'm excited to see what the future brings! Can't wait to see some of the service discovery stuff like you can build with etcd and consul make it into libswarm.
Yup, similar to SQRL, and here are implementations of it...

https://www.grc.com/sqrl/implementations.htm

Wordpress, Android, .Net Client, Node, PHP, Ruby, Windows Phone, and Haskell. Unfortunately, having people download an app to login to your website kind of ups the bar a little. Still, they can just scan the code with their phone as well.
That was weird for me too, I was just at heart last week.
We're not necessarily arguing against screen size, but pixel density. That is, instead of scaling the resolution linearly with the screen size, they did that and some. So now instead of a low 400s pixel density range like the Nexus 5, the Nexus 6 sits at a de facto PPI of roughly 500.

Obviously there's a cost to this, both in battery and hardware requirements to push those extra pixels. Meanwhile nobody can detect pixels on a Nexus 5, but apparently it wasn't good enough.

And next year we'll see PPI at 500-600. I just don't get it.

As for thickness, I think the Nexus does quite well. It's about 50% thicker than the iPhone 6 which is a great number (~10mm) to be at in my opinion.
Current is most definitely != latest. Current means any model that is still in production and being sold, although admittedly for some manufacturers those two things don't usually align, Apple has a tendency to remove models immediately from the line up when they cease production.
really? I absolutely love it on my iPhone 6!
Anyone had any luck figuring out how to get a $i to have an arbitrary string? About to look into the ajax code for a json string which, deserialized, lands an extra array level in the $args. Deserialization seems to be the best guess about what Stefan Horst has in his POC, and the way to make it this way: "if the array has keys, which are no integers."

Redhat 6.6 Released
Yes, there is a broad similarity: abstracting away from performance or threading limitations of common UI building blocks. However, React has a declarative, single-directional data flow model. AsyncDisplayKit is imperative.

Declarative code is great for a lot of things, but interactivity and animations are definitely not one of them. Also, ASDisplayNode was designed to be as similar as possible to UIView (also imperative).

We don't have a benchmark suite, largely because it is so easy to use Instruments to do CPU traces and look for any chunks of main thread work that threaten frame drops.
Even on the Xbox 360? I though it was only for the Xbox One.

The problem for Apple is that they sometimes want to move fast and change things, but that necessitates leaving people behind. Their preferred solution during the last decade or so is to mostly keep the old products around for a while, but deemphasise them in their marketing.

I do think that’s the right approach, actually.
They also mentioned NHS throughout the article.
Yes, the timing of this news the day before the Apple event is...interesting.

If there are no ads and I can watch what I want on demand, then it's totally worth it. It might be more expensive, but the value is greater as well.
This really looks just like a circular version of the FireTV. The remote looks very similar. To the point I'd assume they are the same design.

Is this just a case where Amazon got a reference implementation out the door before Google did?

No, that’s not true. Well, spring might be true this time around, but it’s not typically spring.

They have been in lockstep with Intel ever since the switch to Intel. Look at Intels roadmap and you will know when there will be new Macs. It’s as simple as that.

(Of course, this only applies to their best selling Macs, specifically all their mobile Macs. Others may be a bit more neglected and updated less frequently or only six months after Intel comes out with their new CPUs.)
right but if the link from the router to the chromecast is 2.4GHz you're still going to suffer.

Your comment is pretentious and assumptive.

Consumers want bigger phones and manufacturers are providing them, it's as simple as that.

I'd say deriving moral superiority from phone form factor is sillier than a 6 inch screen.
It has always been standard for Nexus phones to not have SD card expansion [1]. Whether it is justifiable is up for debate. I've always assumed the main reason is so they can sell people overpriced storage upgrades and push people into buying a new device.

Watching my brother go through something similar has been one of the hardest things I've ever watched. He's pretty heavily medicated now and has struggles to maintain "normal" relationships or a work life... After years of taking care of him, though (and him actually graduating college and getting a job), I had to start focusing on my own life again. I still feel overwhelming guilt for moving away.

He's a veteran (did not go to war, though, discharged with the health issues) so it's been even harder watching him try to make sense of it all with a system like the VA.
One big difference is the smaller the device, the quicker and cheaper it is to iterate. If it takes 15 years and $X billion to build and test your device, then progress gets measured on a per-lifetime instead of per-year basis. If your device can be built in a year and for $X millions instead, the testing and debugging can be done much faster. For a software dev comparison, think waterfall versus agile.
Could I impose for a citation for this? A quick check indicates that in the industrialized world, between 50% and 70% of individuals require corrective lenses.[1][2] That seems to indicate that the _average_ human does NOT have 20/20. It's possible in developing countries less than half the population does not need vision correction, but I'm not terribly convinced.

With how much bullshit she's already getting, why'd you think that if she had youtube comments enabled, there'd be anything but more abuse and harassment there? She doesn't owe it to anyone to let trolls make her videos' comments a platform for further abuse.

I'm sure she's dealing with ~critique~ she receives appropriately, she just doesn't make herself available as a target to trolls quite as much as the gamergate crowd might like.

This looks like a pretty weak attempt to try to turn around the harassment she's facing and portray it as a fault of her own.
Ballpark calculation:

400km/h ~ 100m/s

air intake cross section ~ 1m^2

==> ~ 100m^3/s of air going through radiator

density of air ~ 1kg/m^3

==> ~ 100kg/s of air going through radiator

specific heat of air ~ 1kJ/(kg * degC)

==> 100kJ/(s * degC) == 100kW/degC

temperature difference between air entering and leaving the radiator ~ 10degC

==> 1MW

So handling 2.5MW waste heat doesn't seem out of the question from this analysis.

As another ballpark "upper bound" analysis, consider that copper is one of the most thermally conductive materials, with thermal conductivity ~ 400 Wm/(m^2 degC), let's round that up to 1kWm/(m^2degC).

Let's assume that there is a thermal conducting surface of 1m^2 (i.e. the surfaces of the pipes that interface with the radiators). Let's assume that the copper is 1mm thick (= 1m/1000). Let's see what temperature difference would be needed to transfer 1MW of heat across:

1MW == 1kWm/(m^2degC) * 1m^2 * (1000/1m) * deltaT degC

==> deltaT ~ 1 degC

which again doesn't seem out of the question.

As another ballpark "upper bound", the convective heat transfer coefficient for forced air is ~ 100W/(m^2degC), which means that assuming that the radiator fins are 100 degC above the air temperature, in order for the fins to transfer 1MW of power to the air, you would need an area of

1MW == 100W/(m^2degC) * 100 degC * area m^2

==> area ~ 100m^2 of surface area in the radiator, which doesn't seem unreasonable (a radiator 1m^2 area * 10cm deep, made up of thin plates spaced 1mm apart has this total surface area).

So they Veyron dissipating ~ 1MW in waste heat at 400km/h doesn't fail any of these basic sanity tests.

More complicated though is the interaction between the stages considered here. For example, how do we interface our 1m^2 of copper with our 100m^2 of radiator? Making the radiator fins thin lets us pack more surface area into the same volume, but also makes it difficult to keep the "edges" of the fins at a sufficiently high temperature so that they pull their weight transferring heat to the air: since the "copper tubing" has significantly less surface area, it only contacts (and thus transfers heat to) the radiator fins "sparsely".

> You find 9-10" is insufficient for reading material?

No, I find 12 - 13" better for reading material. The reason my Retina iPad became my default "book" is because it was sufficient. :-)

12.5" is the 'printable' area of an 8.5 x 11" page with 1" margins. (14" if you include the margins). So especially for PDFs that are 'zoomed to the margins' a retina 12.5" display can be pretty much a 1 for 1 reproduction. And that is something I've wanted for a very very long time.
