as a former department of homeland security employee this is business as usual. you think it was an accident that these were no-bid or that some random canadian company got the healthcare website contract when there are thousands of americans who could have done it better? just scratching the backs of their donors. nothing to see here.
$35 and chromecast work for me.. don't see a need for this. Not only that I can just start playing any video and browse to 127.0.0.1:8888 and stream whatever I want via chromecast.
your project sounds incredibly smart, congrats and good luck! For someone like myself who is very tall, but somewhat small in the waste for my height I have a hard time finding clothes. 36/34 jeans are near impossible. I'll give it a shot once you launch!
Then how am I on the list with an email I only use at coinbase? With my full email and name, and i'm getting spammed non-stop by this "non-important" security flaw in your system.. multiple times today and counting.
either way, humans weren't made to eat a largely corn based diet nor were animals. Most of the food in grocery stores is just corn remade. It's extremely unhealthy food.
You can taste the difference in a cow that's been fed a corn diet and a cow thats been grass fed. Problem is if you see those cattle lots they have so many head of beef(far to many for the acreage) it's just dirt. Then it's dipped in a bath of ecoli killing shit, and squished up with a bajillion other cows.. it's disgusting. I'll stick to raising my own food.
Youre 100% right and im not a food scientist, but i strongly feel the increase on cancer in humans can be attributed to the largely corn based diet humans are fed.. and the other terrible food items were fed by the powers that be.
Everything is made with corn or corn byproducts and its not healthy at all.. not only that were feeding it to all our animals.. its a bad bad situation how our food supply is treated, and the more we push "lab grown food" the worse its going to get.
No need for envy, get some land and go to work! It's wonderful. Getting ready to tap our Vermont Sugar Maples for a bit of spring maple sugar production... Nothing like old time, home made, boiled over a open fire, Vermont Maple Syrup!
why not do both? I program, and have a small self sustaining micro farm. Just placed my order for 28 spring chickens, and 3 turkey's which will provide most of the meat for my family throughout the winter. I will supliment with fish and meat that I catch or hunt down.
I also have a vegitable garden which we can most of our food from or preserve in other ways. :)
If I want a chicken that tastes just as good as the ones I raise I have to shell out $20+ for a 6lb whole chicken.. Crazy.. I get it for about $1/lb.
Does it matter what it costs? Hacker News isn't "open source" news, and software is a business. If you're not into business to make money, you're not in business. You're playing.
