i got a retina mbp 13" , i'm having all sort of problems , random logouts .. black screens with the computer on etc. started to happen 2 months after upgrading to yosemite. I'm seriously considering buying a normal laptop and install linux on it .. i love macs but it is affecting my productivity.
indeed , clumsy birds is coming close.
This bs reminds me of my year working in the US ..everybody tries to burst your bubble/project. I'm not saying everybody but in my experience i have never seen a bigger group of [ Koolaid chugers , one uppers , non-sense speakers , ass kissers (cause im afraid of getting sacked) ] like the ones i saw during that massively painful year in the US.

Ask HN: web design for 'backend' devs

Hi guys. Sometimes i see the weekend projects that some of you post here at HN .. and the design of the website in question normally it's pretty cook , very minimalistic and 'fashionable' .Question is: is there any template/framework that can give my app that kind of look , most of the time you guys go for a web desinger or someone that knows about the matter. Thanks in advance

NSA - RDRAND

http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/rdrand.c#L35

I've been reading some stuff about all this mess and i've decided to check out the implementation of RDRand. I found this "we are architecturally guaranteed a reseed" a bit confusing , maybe someone with more experience in random number generation and encryption makes some sense out of it .. if you check the code there's a ASM call if the feature is supported and that's it. I found it curious
