It looks like they have a pretty good user list going: http://cloudstack.apache.org/users.html

Where did "e" get declared at? It just seems to leap magically into existence.

They are a step backward. They try to make a complicated thing look simple. That is always a mistake.

I like the verbosity of anon classes, they make sense. They look right in the debugger. Lambdas do not look clear they look like vodoo, I very much dislike them and wish they'd nev…

Eclipse's debugger can be configured to show a refined output. The controls are in the upper right in the Debug Perspective. Programmers who make applications are not programmers w…

Perhaps you should downgrade your title from human to arse.

Why are there so many Haskell articles on HN? It seems like nearly every day there's one or more Haskell articles yet in the real world I've run into one guy in decades that even k…

It's reassuring of the human condition that these two stick with it through thick and thin. Charting a course to success even when the medical expert(s) said otherwise.

>> But the idea that this was a thunderbolt of inspiration that hit notch with the best idea ever that then changed the world is just fantasy. It was a series of thunderbolts and N…

Yep that's what I was thinking, "Thirty-five blocks of Broadway were destroyed".

Truly amazing! I wonder what would happen to a large city like that if in a blackout for 3 days.

Actually the real problem is people who have your attitude about the problem.

Aging does not necessarily stop the ability to learn anything new. You cited your dad so I'll cite mine, he taught himself assembly programming for fun when he was in his late 60's…

I've been playing with WebGL demos on Ubuntu for years, first Chrome then Firefox. It isn't new. You might also be impressed to find out that Steam is on Linux now too.

I retract my earlier comment, this is cheesy at best Intel. Sad. Still kowtowing to the Gates regime.

This is really big. We might now upgrade to the next Roku with Netflix running in Chrome on Linux, fast, now an Intel CPU device, really cool.

"Hi, I don't think anyone from google is even looking at this since we have no resolution" What's up with this Google?

>> resume didn't work I still sometimes have to use Windows for work and resume/hibernate works about half the time. The other half I have to power reset it. That's with HP, Dell a…

What version of Ubuntu? If it's 12 then you might need to do what I did for my new PC a year ago to get the latest drivers: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack That f…

>> If you are looking for a locked-down consumer appliance of a computer then linux really isn't for you. As other have pointed out System 76 targets Linux. I've got an old Dell th…

I use the proprietary drivers for nVidia on Ubuntu, always have, works great.

I never [bought] a Mac, always looked like a control freak's dream, a step down from even Windows, let alone Linux.

I propose that going into space is a worthy endeavor on its own without the need to find aliens. The journey of exploration enables us to invent new things that often help our live…
