NetDrive – Mount Amazon Cloud Drive as a Local or Network Drive on Windows
This is awesome! Great work :)

I've just finished the Scala koans yesterday, and was wondering if there is something similar for SQL. I've been working with ORM libraries exclusively and had not touched `raw` SQL queries at all the past couple of years :(
Recently, Amazon started to provide unlimited storage for $60/year.

But their PC/Mac client is limited only to upload files and you have to use web browser to access your files.

NetDrive mounts Amazon Cloud Drive as a drive and provides direct access to your files from Windows. You need to register as a developer with your Amazon account to use Amazon Cloud Drive AP.

I can bet this was submitted by Scott Adams himself. It's sounds completely like him.

we released a blog post on the functionalities of the App Store Analytics feature. https://blog.sensortower.com/blog/2015/04/30/app-analytics-f...
Singapore for the uninformed have always been Authoritarian democracy.

A hybrid between Authoritarian and Democracy.

While it may looks negatively in many western worlds, it seems to be working for Singapore. And from what I've read their citizens are very well educated and their officials aren't all lawyers, they are far more educated than US politicians.

> unfavorable speech isn't censorship, but more speech.

They're probably going to some how have their own government sponsor speech to counter online speech from what I've gathered. It's seem like the implicit thing the dude implying, where his government will get these unvoiced people to talk about online articles and judge how true it is.
Theres a lot of negativity here that I won't comment on, though I'd be curious to hear where the author is coming from (what was the source of his/her experience with .NET). They may certainly know more than I do.

As for open source community, we have real data available so there's no need for debate: http://githut.info/

As of Q4 2014, C# was number 10 in langs by number of active repos, with 56k (compared to, say, 85k for C++). Came in ahead of ObjC, R, Go, and others.

It may not be JavaScript, but it's active. If you look at the other stats you'll see these really aren't dead repos either.
Apple usually has a 1:3 cost to retail price ratio (based on mobile devices). Maybe they need the headroom for additional sensors (to maintain the current price).

Yes. One does not have to venture far to find a 'we're all ruined' article. I was more interested in finding small scale examples of how communities react when a central government essentially ceases to function. Not a preppers screed (i haven't looked at the link)

The stats will be what they are. As with all things, it will come down to how that information is evaluated.

I was an eager beaver with sabermetrics many years ago, but I've become disenchanted with the powers-that-be in that realm. Nate Silver is one of the good guys, but a really strong undercurrent of this-is-fact-and-my-voice-is-louder has taken hold. A bunch of Billy Beane wannabes, it seems to me.

This particular set of data from the MLB has the expansiveness to allow for better evaluation of players in things like defense, where current statistical calculations such as UZR can be highly fungible and volatile with the current set of inputs.

It's not surprising that certain teams would want to limit access to the data set, as it has become such an important aspect of player evaluation and team construction.
Another crippling problem for the overclass has been solved! And here I was getting sad because I'd polished off the port.

I can see how people missed the Community Edition, I cannot see how people don't know that the Express Edition has been free since literally 2005[0]. The only real difference between the free express editions and the community edition is the ability to install Visual Studio extensions, but broadly speaking it isn't that big of a change from Express 2013 for Windows Desktop.

If people don't know that Visual Studio has had a free version for 10 years(!) then they have their head in the sand. But it seems a lot of these people are common, often making bad jokes about IE "sucking" (hint: it doesn't, even pre-Edge), Windows being insecure (hint: it isn't post-XP), and Microsoft being a monopoly (Microsoft's market influence is nothing like what it was in the 1990s, between OS X, iOS, and Android it has a lot of legitimate competition).

Is it not the case that the term "golden key" only became a term of mockery after that linked editorial used it? In any case, since said editorial does not appear to be using it satirically, it seems an odd thing to link in that context.

"Dhalgren" -- what? Why? What do you think are the links between such vastly different works, produced in vastly different eras by authors who could hardly be more unlike each other? Seriously, I'd love to know how you'd relate them.
It'll be interesting to see how this is pitched and what it's price point is... I'm still not convinced that energy arbitrage is profitable enough for individual homes given the current cost of the storage.
That might explain the tax thing. It makes sense to me that programming sensibilities and a passion for simple tax code would be related.

I think my point was exactly that now we're just comparing degrees of impossibility.
I'm curious if they'll be indemnifying homeowners for fires originating in the battery pack.

Anyway, if it can clearly save me money and is not incredibly expensive up-front, I'll likely get one. Even if you actively conserve, electricity is decently expensive over the long run.
In the same way that very few people buy a $100,000+ Model S to save money on gas, early adopters of this product will be people who are a) well off and b) find the idea of converting their home to 100% renewable electricity appealing.
Could you post any comparison code demonstrating the terseness, or suggest a good site that might demonstrate this?
Depends what specs you want, but a ThinkPad X240 would be well supported.
I'm someone who eats out a lot, and in the price range of what you mentioned ($50/person). I've done the Yelp search/reservation two-step many times in other cities besides my own.

My honest feedback is that this service doesn't solve a problem for me. Most of the time, the key to any reservation for me is timing. My schedule can be a little volatile (not a lot), but two weeks ahead of time doesn't solve an issue for me.

Here's what would be helpful to me: based on my preferences, shoot me a message today about an opening somewhere tomorrow. Make it a push notification, and let me reply -- if yes, book it.
Hm, they really keep the start of their press conferences a "mystery". It's pretty blunt and straight forward. I like it.

I was listening to music (on Grooveshark touch) while driving down the highway. The page refreshed and this came up, it was a very weird feeling.

This was the best music product I've ever used, and it was buggy as fuck sometimes. I used it so much I learned weird ways to get around the menu rendering issues on the html5/touch version of grooveshark. Even with its bugs it was my main music platform.

Thank you for your hard work. It was one of my favorite webapps.

Long live Grooveshark~
I think it's worse than that. You don't know the right answer, nobody else knows the right answer, and the only way get by is to guess and hope you get lucky. Apple got lucky. They built the iPod, which in hindsight, was a trans-formative product, but at the time it wasn't so obvious.
These were interesting to me:

16. Take better care of your customers --
Apple support is pretty good, especially if you can get to a store

26. If you sell it, make it --
Their supply chain integration and control is impressive today

38. Make it easier for ISVs to make applications --
The app store and the development ecosystem is important for apple

50. Give Steve Jobs as much authority as he wants in new product development --
This paid off hugely

53. Recharge your strategy for Europe --
Apple is a very global company and is pushing into lots of markets

59. Invest heavily in Newton technology --
Apple parked that particular project, but the iPhone and iPad followed

Some clearly joke entries, and some misses and terrible ideas, but definitely some interesting insights as well.
That's pretty crazy. Where I live and work, almost everyone mostly does C#. And, even the PHP developers I know run Windows for some reason.

Any of those tax payers are free to print them, frame them and sell them. So no they should not be getting the other 75% of the profit if they don't choose to do the work.
Hiking the PCT is certainly an amazing accomplishment.

As someone who spends a lot of time outdoors hiking and biking, the PCT has some interesting politics. The PCT expands or gets rerouted and the land that is taken over goes from being open to mountain bikes to closed. The forest service took a short term moratorium on biking and has basically made it permanent; yet in parts of the Sierras (especially around tahoe) mountain bike groups take it upon themselves to maintain parts of the PCT.
Ye, Gods. Yet another Apple story.

They are a for profit (and quite a lot of it) corporation that makes shiny gadgets.

Why do we keep talking about them incessantly? If we are not talking about what Apple is doing now, then we are talking about what somebody said about Apple 20 years ago.

I'm of course making the problem worse or meta-worse, if you will, by talking about talking about Apple, but I just don't understand this whole deification of a profit making entity.
Am I hitting a bug, or is it really 35 minutes in, and still on intro music?
I prefer to use shelving / stashing to do this sort of stuff. This way you don't need to learn two ways to do the same thing and you can be sure that the code version that you commit is the same that you ran your tests on.
Living in Hawthorne, I really should be there in person, but here I am watching it in a low-definition Flash stream. So be it. Just quarantine it in a VM in the same way you would iTunes or any other quasi-malicious software.
Funny how some of these are way off, while others are pretty spot on:

7. Don't disappear from the retail chains. Rent space in a computer store, flood it with Apple products (especially software), staff it with Apple salespeople, and display everything like you're a living, breathing company and not a remote, dusty concept.

Free Deep Learning book
It used to scare me because it abused its market dominance in much the same way Google does and because its ultimate end goal is inevitably end user lock-in, which is something I want to avoid at all costs.

It's true that they have changed over the last couple of years and have adopted open source, etc., but it seems to me that this isn't really because they've become intrinsically "less evil" - it's just because the market has forced their hand, and they now have to choose between future irrelevance and not being evil now.

I am pretty confident that if they once again gain a powerful monopoly like they used to have, they'll abuse it just like they did the last time.

One way they could do that is to bait and switch on open source/linux versions of .NET.

I've looked at F# and it is a nice language, but I don't really want to do any OSS development on it unless Microsoft somehow convinces me with a license that handcuffs future Microsoft so that they won't be able to do that (e.g. GPL, assuming that would work. IANAL).
>there are many OSS projects and they match the things I saw in Python and Clojure community.

The short story is you're likely looking for a payroll provider that offers an "internationally-based employee" feature, but (correct if I'm wrong payroll SaaS service providers!) I can't think of one that does. A few offer a US-based employer / different state employee offering, but with a foreign employee you need a highly specialized offering. Insurance is a whole other story, but easier...just give them a stipend for their local insurance rates (if any).

This may sound ridiculous, but Basecamp (formerly 37Signals) has likely had this problem in the past/present, so consider just reaching out and asking them. In the past I've contacted [insert name you know here] with a very specific, quick-answer type question a few times and they've been super responsive and awesome.

That's why a modular mobile phone is so interesting.

The important aspect of a modular mobile phone is not what you can add to it (silly little consumer modules) but what you ca subtract from it.

With a modular mobile phone, you could physically isolate the GPS/GSM/LTE/bluetooth components at will.

My prediction is that the google modular phone, whatever it's called, will have the cellular components on the base system and not removable, which is a pity.

I remember reading the first few chapters of Ulysses in a high school English class. Our teacher explained that there are entire Masters-level classes on just this book.

When we dug into the text, though, the difficulty was, as you said, just a ton of things we hadn't heard of. Compared to philosophy courses or some CS algorithms — or even wrapping my head around pointers for the first time — the concepts were pretty straight-forward.
You'd think with this kind of wait someone would have thought to prepare more than 3 minutes of music.
If they've already lost control of the site it's unlikely they themselves were making this statement. Otherwise it is possible that it's an apology delineated by the settlement and likely written by lawyers.
Mistakes like this are unfortunate, but once made, it's shocking that the SEC allows them to them to take the content down.

The wishful thinking that it "undoes" the error is understandable, but in reality that's not possible, and it really does is restrict access, give unfair access to information and effectively enables select parties to trade on insider information.

You can run .NET Core on OS X[1] (and Linux, FreeBSD and Windows). There are plenty of rough edges still, but we're adding more functionality and making it more capable each day. Soon enough, all the .NET Core ports will be just as capable as the Windows version.

ASP.NET 5 still runs Mono by default on OS X, but you can switch to .NET Core with the DNVM tool [2].

Anecdotal of course, but in my limited experience, I've seen plenty of superiority complexes and generally assholery, but no Linus fanboyism. I don't like it, but to me it seems like a perfectly unsurprising aspect of the software industry.

Your idea (my interpretation) that the industry mostly consists of people having productive discussions seems more off base. Yes, that's the way it should be, and usually is on HN and similar forums, but out in the larger real world, arrogance, superiority, etc are the order of the day.
Ask HN: What would you like to know about your customers?
If you have a chance to know exactly 3 things about your customers what it would be? anything, private/public life and etc.

I'm not against it in principal, but leaving alignment to the editor sounds like the kind of thing that could be coding standard unfriendly (unless it were done quite well, or was solely visual).

* Blacklane - cheaper than Uber Black, but the rides have to be pre-arranged (essentially a car service with UI)

* Wingz - cheaper than UberX, but only to/from airports

* Sidecar - cheaper than UberX, but with implied wait of up to an hour

* Leap buses - cheaper than UberX, but with set routes

If drivers are utilized at 100%, they will have very little reason to look around. But most of the services don't utilize (and hence don't pay) drivers for 100% of their time. Hence a myriad of phones with a bunch of identical apps on drivers' dashboards, and frantic search for 100% utilization (food delivery? shopping delivery? help with moving?) among the dispatcher services.
