He was probably surprised because they were trying to make a better C++, not a better Python.

I use GOPATH only inside of a wrapper script that sets GOPATH to the directory for the current project. All libraries are stored alongside my project code in source control. I use go get when adding/changing libraries, but remove the .git folder when doing so.

In the recent past, even with a premier paid account on GAE, getting a specific quota raised took a few days and was apparently a non-trivial operation.

Yeah, what's amazing is that they didn't charge us to increase the limit. It's also pretty awesome that their android push notification service has no quota and is free.

Does librsync speak the rsync protocol or just create deltas?

I would take that one step further and never rebase any branch ever.

What I'd like to see is mobile displays that actually look good in sunlight. I think that could be the next major area of display progress.

You should definitely check out Gone Home then.

Awesome to hear!

Sketch is on it's way to being what Illustrator should be. It's still a little buggy at times, for instance, you can't export things at high resolution and the workaround, resizing a group of objects, rarely works correctly.

I am working on that, it's being finished up this week and should be submitted to the App Store soon after that.

http://www.truecrypt.org/docs/?s=hidden-volume is probably more what you want.

What games are the Oculus Rift guys making?

In the go driver, it does basically what the Javascript one does and just takes an Expression object, with methods like .Add(<Expression>) and .Mul(<Expression>) that also return Expressions

If you think just adding people will solve the problem, you've never called Virgin Mobile's support line.

What effect would having "Stay logged in" checked by default on the number of failed login attempts?

Maybe it should be "Username or password in use"

Wow, is Steve Huffman the coolest guy ever?

It seems that (P)NaCl could be pretty close if you can, for browsers without it (same as not having asm.js), compile the LLVM bitcode into Javascript, which I think is possible with Emscripten (also what compiles to asm.js).

You would probably want some sort of layer to abstract away the NaCl API so you can call the equivalents for asm.js, but I don't actually know that asm.js has equivalents.

As I recall he did portray it as risky. I remember him saying something along the lines of them having the Wired Magazine covers on a wall from all the previous huge startups that failed miserably, to remind them to be humble. I guess it wasn't that effective.

+1 for Spectacle, I only use like 3 simple configurations, and Spectacle is simple and free.

Yeah same here, only replace "OS X" with "Windows".

I think what will happen is that people will all own EVs and then rent gas cars for long distance trips until there is some huge breakthrough in battery capacity or charging times.

The government appears to be able under current forfeiture law, to sue property that was involved in a crime. Such as a motel that was used to make meth. For example "US vs. Eight Thousand Eight Hundred and Fifty Dollars" http://www.law.cornell.edu/supremecourt/text/461/555

You're definitely correct about the flash, I think the second reason is that the aspect ratio has been altered. The 350x290 image is displayed at 300x275.

It's blank for me in 3 different browsers, looks like some javascript errors.

Doesn't the camera have the original bitmap data though? Seems like it could just rotate it before converting to JPEG.

This driver attempts to match the official drivers as closely as is reasonable. It has almost all of the functionality of the official drivers now, but won't have a stable-ish API or actual tests until the end of December.

Let me know if you have any feedback, this is the first Go language library that I have built.
