Yeah unfortunately there seems to be some issues when it comes to deinitializing and reassigning GPUs without hardware reboot. It seems like the type of thing that will get better as time goes on thou…

For gaming performance on kvm most people say about 95% of native performance when passing the GPU.

For me, modern virtualization has gotten so good that it's my preferred solution. kvm, libvirt, virtio, and PCI passthrough et al have opened up a whole new world of possibilities. Currently stil…

I'm not aware of any popular scripting language that supports utilizing multiple processors without starting new processes. Is this a thing? I don't do a lot of parallel stuff with Python bu…

Being able to use inline LaTeX and Markdown is the killer feature of Gitter for me.
comment
Awesome. I've thought it would be fun to work on a simple editor based on Rust. Something similar to Vim but without ViML. I really like the idea of using pipes rather than committing to a single…

"the updated $20 bill isn't expected to be issued until 2030 at the earliest, according to a report from CNN; citing the lengthy approval process by the Advanced Counterfeit Deterrence steer…

For folks looking for a simple Github Flavored Markdown previewer I've been very happy with grip: https://github.com/joeyespo/grip …

This. My experience was nowhere near as extreme, but I was homeschooled and started college full time at 14. It's taken me years to catch up socially, and I still struggle sometimes. Do not under…

I think there's still a market for more powerful devices that don't provide as much hand holding. I agree though the community aspect of the pi is a huge draw, especially when it comes to fi…

Awesome. Somehow I missed the C2 release. Been happy with my C1+.

64 bit A53 and built in wireless. Fantastic. Can't wait to see how these turn out and what Hardkernel's answer will be.

Payson by chance? Still blows my mind that Prescott/PV have 3 walmarts.

Love Alpine. The biggest use case I've found for small images so far is for testing a microservices system on Travis or a similar CI. You package each of your services in a container, then use do…

Yeah, I was definitely mostly surprised by the amount per individual

The author raised $12,451 USD from 13 backers for a Flask course? https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/nickjj/build-a-saas-app... Maybe I'm in the wrong line of work.…

Mediagoblin is ok for presentation but has basically no download features.
comment
h5ai is awesome. The interface is fine. The problems I had were that the process of generating thumbnails is pretty opaque. It appears to start generating them when a directory is first visited throug…

This would be a nice feature.
comment
Uploading through a web interface would probably be too slow unless I'm on the same LAN. I'm fine managing the filesystem manually. So web uploading would be a nice feature but not necessary…
comment
I'm fine with handling devops on the server setup. It's also ok to do most of the moving around of files directly on the filesystem, not through the web interface. OwnCloud was just too fat …
comment
Very cool. Somewhat off topic: I've been looking recently for a good way to host many GBs of photos and videos for my friends and family to browse and download. Basically an open source version o…

There's a lot of awesome work being done on T1 diabetes, particularly in the open source community. I highly recommend checking out the Tidepool Project ( http://tidepool.org/ ) an…

Also looks to be Linux compatible (wxWidgets backend), which is sweet.
comment
Very cool. I don't have a Mac to test it out on, but is there an easy way (integrated pip, conda) to install additional packages? IMO a graphical interface for finding and installing packages wou…
