And lets not forget the Black Diamond ATC Guide and the Petzl Tibloc!

Didn't want to give off a "someones been there and has done that already" vibe, your version definitely looks much better. Honestly, I found WMI to be lacking and also to be quite slow.…

Cool, so basically it brings something like WQL to nix, because this is something that exists in Windows already: SELECT * FROM Win32_LogicalDisk WHERE FreeSpace < 2097152 …

I know nothing about cars, but I heard from someone who worked there that for some parts, they now have to send half of them back to Volkswagen because they don't meet specifications anymore, and…

That advice is generally valid for all devs. In a poll (sorry, can't find the source right now) the older devs that were freelancers were the most happy ones. The market valued their experience, …

Because peer pressure in the local gulf club forced the CEO to "just try it once"? Boy, did I get teased at Wharton when I told the guys I paid my workers minimum wage, thinking I was alread…

You've got mail.

Nice to see something that well made from around here. Currently sitting 800m away from you @ Combinat 56. :) I remember someone posting in a recurring revenue thread on HN about a similar service for…

I think we just witnessed the first corporate pseudo-cool advertisement from Google. You know, when BigCorp tries to cater to the young and hip, thats the kind of video they produce. Crank it up a not…

I appreciate this article for demonstrating Haskell optimization techniques. But honestly, I kind of expected a 3D game with impressive graphics to finally prove FP can used for these purposes. This i…

This one is really mind blowing. Also I don't get why they switched to joysticks instead of the traditional yoke. With mechanical feedback, yokes should be much more intuitive. I'd love to h…

That was quite interesting. The only thing that doesn't fit well with my life experience is the "high libido" part. The high dopamine crowd seems to be less interested in sex than the a…

I realized it sounded a little paranoid after posting it - didn't mean it that way.

Didn't catch that one - thx!

Office COM automation is what I did. I get what you mean, but in my experience, interfacing with native code is not always straightforward. Also there are odd cornercases where you need to fallback to…

Yes, but it seems like it has effects simular to a slight depression on men. So it impacts quality of life, at least thats the impression I got. So even if it does not cause huge costs for the health …

Ok, so there is a parasite that happens to alter human behavior, and a significant percentage of the human population is infected. Why is it that I - have never heard of large-scale testing for infect…

"it seems to make men more introverted, suspicious, unattractive to women, and oblivious to the way others see them" So basically, cats created 4chan and its userbase. Well played! But serio…

I have used PowerShell, and currently learning Clojure. They never occurred to me as being similar - or did I miss the point?

The sources for MS DOS 1.1 and 2.0 are available as well, if you'd like to compare them: http://www.computerhistory.org/atchm/microsoft-ms-dos-early-... …

Location: South Germany Remote: yes Willing to relocate: no Technologies: Java, Javascript, some Clojure, little Ruby, C, Python, C#, VB.Net and PowerShell. Html / CSS / JS too. Familiar wit…

Well the french elite is commonly described as being a pretty incestuous affair. There a few elite schools, and the countries top politicians and industry leaders are all recruited from there. Not say…

Some package managers are part of build systems too, e.g. the Maven ecosystem. Now in what language should you write extensions or plugins? There will be djihad.

> seriously using .net instead of java was hugely controversial Was this for a server app or the client side? Because for a server app, I can't imagine any circumstance where this would make s…

That was my first thought, too. Fun facts [1]: - its ignition was the most powerful artificial explosion in human history - The seismic shock created by the detonation was measurable even on its third…

HFT profits have fallen, and will probably continue to do so. If at one point some of the hardware becomes superfluous because it is too expensive to maintain, what is a good use of a low-latency 100M…

I imagine, real estate keywords are probably very expensive. Also, I have an ad blocker. In cities like Munich, speed is very important - is your search real-time or at least near rt? If so, I'd …

Wish I knew it when I was moving to Munich 6 months ago. Sounds like a tough job, some of those sites aren't structured very well. I thought about automating it too, but it seemed like too much h…

Wow, thats news to me. Its been there since the A7 apparently and is used to process the fingerprint sensor data: "The Secure Enclave uses encrypted memory and includes a hardware random number …

Must. Not. Make. RMS reference.
