Who is resizing logos and artwork like this in photoshop? I would never resize a corporate logo like that. If I needed a .png in a specific size it would usually be rendered for web straight from the svg or AI file.

Two factor authentication is a major improvement. Combined with a password manager is a pretty good combination.

I agree. Its quite distracting. I didn't get through it.

Results for “home” “ho” English: woman Direct match at start or end, potentially serious issue! 335 million native speakers, about 1.5 billion speakers in total.

Are there any current games using unreal engine 4? It seems this has been hyped for a long time but no real games have come out.

I don't agree with this argument. The sun doesn't shine at night, period. Any solar system which supplies energy after the sun is down relies on storing residual energy collected during the daytime. Solar thermal is storing energy in heat just as a lithium battery would using chemical reaction.

I appreciate this being open source but why on earth would you store this information in JSON rather than a relational DB?

SMS and voice call codes should still work.

Aren't you allowed to abstain from declaring race on college applications?

Generally no

Bill gates is strong, he's not Arnold but he is strong enough to maintain his health which allows him to focus on solving actual problems. Everyone you listed except for hawking was relatively healthy(strong) and his specific situation is basically a miracle of modern medicine.

I dislike negativity as much as the other guy but fusion specifically has been "10 years away" for the last 60 years. I'm not convinced, especially without any specifics about what improvements they made. Probably just another grab for funding.

4:3 aspect ratio on an andriod tablet! This should be interesting.

The fiber scanned display appears to be a strand of fiber, vibrated in one or two dimensions by a pizo-electric. The "pixels" are formed by the end of the fiber strand.

I don't have as much knowledge to impart however I will piggyback. In my experience working for companies of different sizes and stages of growth can be eye opening. Seeing teams work through problems from different perspectives has given me great confidence when figuring out how to address new challenges and uncertainty.

`"At this point one of the most experienced programmers in the team, one who had survived many years of development in the "good old days," decided to take matters into his own hands. He called me into his office, and we set out upon what I imagined would be another exhausting session of freeing up memory.

Instead, he brought up a source file and pointed to this line:

static char buffer[1024 * 1024 * 2]; "See this?" he said. And then deleted it with a single keystroke. Done!

He probably saw the horror in my eyes, so he explained to me that he had put aside those two megabytes of memory early in the development cycle. He knew from experience that it was always impossible to cut content down to memory budgets, and that many projects had come close to failing because of it. So now, as a regular practice, he always put aside a nice block of memory to free up when it's really needed.`

Same joke also works for new yorkers

How is this economically efficient? It takes a massive amount of space in their manhattan building but only saves $50k per month?

Heard this story many times. Never thought it was true. I always assumed vegas was a thin excuse for something illicit.

Goldman has no process around sensitive emails so google should be responsible? Goldman should have to tell their customers and own up to their error.

"[Nintendo] canned Star Fox 2 even though it was finished and used much of our code in Star Fox 64 without paying us a penny." Pretty serious allegations. Does not paint a pretty picture of working with nintendo as a 3rd party.

10.2 was a very pleasant surprise coming from windows or mac os 9. I don't think we will have that sort of jump in the future until things become 3 dimensional.

My takeaway, the pie chart makes it look like %50 of Y Combinator companies from 05-09 were essentially failures. Either dying or selling for less than $5M. On the upside there were a few home runs which essentially made up most of the fund value. I would like to know how these results compare with those of a traditional VC firm.

Sony has already released a gaming console with this feature, the PS Vita. http://www.modojo.com/features/playstation_vitas_rear_touch_...

Facebook is doing this. They have a video of the machines too! https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=10152128660097200&set=v...

I don't see manhattan in the list. Average here is around 2500 for a 1br, I thought that was high.

This guy is just showing off his ignorance. Really no analysis went into this piece.

'(on a bogus "performance" case where you're set up to fail) ' Can you elaborate?

It has a slightly negative connotation.

Are they even still rumors? I thought that had been announced.
