> Does money buy happiness? I don't know, but it definitely buys time to pursue happiness more efficiently.
Money buys time. The more you are willing to spend to quickly solve some of life's problems, the more time you will have to do what matters to you, whether that be seeking happiness, money or knowledge.
Money also takes away distractions. I started using a wash and hold service in NYC. About once a week, on my way to work, I drop off my clothes, on the way home I pick them up washed and folded. Something so simple only saves me ~1 hour a week, but not having to think about and planning to allocate time is worth so much more.
This is the most educating thing I have seen on HN in a while.
I went through the code for each, starting with the simplest and working my way up to the much more interesting and complex.
The only thing missing is a way to edit the JS and see the result. Looks like it's easy to use an embedded jsfiddle[0], but I have not tried it myself.
Agree, would love to see a post-mortem blog post. I would also be interesting in finding out what they will do with the technology they created, it would be great if they open sourced it!
One sensor that I have not seen mentioned anywhere is GPS. The pair I tried a few weeks ago had GPS built in and it worked when glass was not connected to a phone or WiFi.
Budget VM has really good plans if you need disk space. A warning though, the support sucks. I used the 2GB plan for while, it has okay performance but for $10 bucks it was perfect for the analysis I had to do.
This is awesome! Great work. One must have for me is auto complete, I use LaTeXila and its hard to move away from auto complete. Spell checking would also be amazing, I have yet to find a good LaTeX IDE with spell check.
