Can anyone recommend an affordable temperature/humidity sensor?

$56 of which is breadboard and hook up wire - I'm sure it's possible to have a custom pcb fabbed for about $20,and if you do small runs to have the pcb cost drop to less than $1.

What's stopping a Bash script from doing something similar? You could alias ls to a malicious actor for example.

Perhaps I should have asked for the most obscure :) I wonder how many truly emerging fields still exist within computer science. I feel that resiros [1] may be correct in suggestin…

Hey HN, What do you think is the most interesting emerging field in Computer Science? I'm interested in PHD areas, industry work, and movements in free software.

Anyone else think this would make a great movie? Or perhaps a Silicon Valley-esque tv-series centered around the Scene would be fantastic.

While interesting, is this really necessary? Call me skeptical, but value add = negligible, justification for an entire department to spend several months+ working = likely. I can …

Surely 'Nukey McNukeface' is the obvious choice.

Dustin, wow. I can see a lot of work went into your talk. I read along for about 80% and you make some great points. Hyperfiddle looks impressive - I signed up to the dev mailing l…
