Bullshit. Norway was the poor European country before they found oil.

So, just to clarify after looking at the source code: This is a something that manages a Linux device and makes it behave like a router by maintaining state, managing state changes…

But people are sorta dumb, on average. It's all relative. Meeting and talking to an IQ 100 person (by definition the average IQ) - after just a couple of minutes you realize they a…

Do you per chance look/glance at the keyboard while you type? That's the only way your comment makes sense.

(Ah, this story finally reached HN. It's been like, what, 2-3 days.) Before anyone starts getting upset about climate changes caused by carbonated beverages - from what I've read i…

The fact that everything by default is clock cycle perfect is the big thing for me. It's hard to get that for most of these systems in any other way.

The MiSTer FPGA project is fun and easy to get started with. You need: 1. The FPGA board from Terasic (Linux ARM host, has USB, HDMI) for $130 https://www.digikey.com/product-detai…

You really wish for a paranthesis counting pen when you have to write pages and pages of LISP (I think it was Common Lisp in our case) on paper for an exam.

Feel free to point out actual instances, or even better, trends backing up that statement.

> Mainly I was hoping to judge community sentiment. You are behaving in a childish, immature way. Stop doing that, or face the consequences. Pro-tip: Grow up.

I brought 16 packages for 13 people to one office; one was so light I was sure it was a pack of gum, another felt like a bug-spray container. Or, while we're speculating, maybe ins…

Meanwhile I could ask of you: why do you want to keep these people as extremely low-paid wage slaves, producing goods for the well to do, for something that can be automated? (I fi…

Why should the average US resident benefit from what you describe? (I mean - what did they contribute?)

Well obviously you would need a blockchain to track the investments. Each vanilla pod would have an entry in the vanilla blockchain. And also an IPv6 address. Seems like there alre…

So, I assume everyone else's first thought after reading this was: Let's build a vanilla flower pollination robot using deep learning to process RGB camera images and help guide th…

Why have these weekend "culture" posts started bleeding into wednesdays?

This guy is behaving like a caged animal. It's painful to watch.

There must be a benchmark somewhere?

Sure, statistically speaking well-informed guessing at an industrial scale, but still guessing.
