You're right, don't make a big war, but think of it as micro functions.

Also if you're going to use spring check out this guide. https://cloud.google.com/appengine/articles/spring_optimizat...

its relevant to aws lambda as well.

What impressed me most was the level of understanding of machine learning by this organized group to train Tay so well to be the ultimate troll bot, offensive and relevant.

As someone that works in the VR industry where I think Apple can make the biggest difference would be in the self contained headset using their mobile components. Google is reportedly already doing this, http://techcrunch.com/2016/02/11/google-is-reportedly-buildi....

Think something like the Samsung Gear but an all in one headset thats nicely designed. Out of all the current available headsets, I think the PS is the best designed and best fitting. I think Apple could do better.

there are other really great headsets you can buy that would work. For example I bought a freeflyvr http://www.freeflyvr.com/. Really works well, but do your own research. There are a lot of factors like FOV, adjustable lens and size. etc.

I've tried and used sumologic . It may not be appropriate for some companies because everything is sent and analyzed on their cloud infrastructure, but is a very good product.

I disagree, on the tangram aspect. Most games have an almost auto snap feature that if you drag the piece close enough it just snaps into place. I like the fact that it takes more of hand eye coordination and understanding of physical space for the physical objects to create the shapes on screen.

I don't know I just get the overwhelming feeling that a lot of people aren't parents in this thread. My daughter loves these types of puzzle games on our touch devices. As soon as I saw the video, I have a good feeling she will like it. Really it looks fun , and the word game looks like something we can do together. I'm excited about this product. I really could care less about the actual learning aspects and more interested in the technology + fun aspect.

the moto x and Nexus line has always been considered mid tier, not the latest everything and many compromises made but not low end.

agree its just I'm invested in Spool and Pocket and provides better functionality. I see no reason to switch at this point.

Post of a video from a person jumping on a trampoline wearing the glasses.

i think the facebook integration is less than optimal. If my site uses facebook login, and a user is asked for facebook again on initial use with filepicker the experience would be confusing.
