Every time I see a photo of Pillars of Creation it makes me wonder if we would even be able to distinguish an unfathomably optimized engineered system from what we consider raw physics with our current understanding.

Make sure you've read the service terms[1] if you plan on building apps for speakers, cars, TVs or smart watches...

12.1 The following terms apply only to current and future Google Cloud Platform Machine Learning Services specifically listed in the "Google Cloud Platform Machine Learning Services Group" category on the Google Cloud Platform Services Summary page:

Customer will not, and will not allow third parties to: (i) use these Services to create, train, or improve (directly or indirectly) a similar or competing product or service or (ii) integrate these Services with any applications for any embedded devices such as cars, TVs, appliances, or speakers without Google's prior written permission. These Services can only be integrated with applications for the following personal computing devices: smartphones, tablets, laptops, and desktops

Things can be both monetized and 'free' and I don't think it necessarily has to be evil simply therefore. What I'm curious about is how they intend/could monetize it?

AMP is afaik an open web format, what's the "get 'em hooked" part here? Is it just a defensive play against Facebook's Instant Articles?

What really are the long term motivations for Google to promote and push AMP so much?

Tictail | Frontend, iOS, ML | Stockholm | Onsite | Full time

I'm a cofounder of Tictail, a startup building a marketplace and e-commerce platform with the vision of enabling anyone anywhere to work with their passion. Today we do so by removing barriers of entry (frontend/backend/Android/iOS) and connecting emerging brands with the right customers (ML). We are today the proud home of tens of thousands of shops and millions of customers globally.

We are looking for engineers with a passion for product to join our small Stockholm team (~35). If this sounds interesting there are some more details at https://tictail.com/careers

Every now and then we also post some thoughts at https://medium.com/tictail

The project was written at #hackNmatch hackathon in Stockholm in 2 hours. The DNS might not have been propagated yet...

Our intention with the project was to initiate a discussion among the hackers at the hack and hopefully inspire them to keep in touch. Sorry about the lack of quality, but feel free to contribute: https://github.com/siavashg/lunchspire

We found it way too difficult to find new and interesting people who wanted to discuss the same topics as we did. So we created this during a quick hack at http://startuplocation.com/hack just to get the discussion started. However, if you are curious as to how and what this does with credentials here you go: https://github.com/siavashg/lunchspire

Could you please elaborate on this?

International stickers are coming anytime now! We're taking submissions at [email protected]

Brilliant! Care to elaborate on the implementation?

Edit: Found some details on the about page http://inkdroid.org:3000/about/ and everything else at https://github.com/edsu/wikistream

I find this kind of amusing 1. May 2011 Oracle writes a white paper on why NoSQL is not reliable and future proof for serious business [1] 2. Removes the original the document [2] 3. Releases their own own NoSQL db
