Huh? He only has one kid- a son, who appears in a lot of the movie diving with him. I'm no expert on the filmmaker's life, but I've not heard that he 'turned his back' on his wife. In fact, you can read her feelings about his relationship with the octopus here:
That does make me feel a bit better about it tbh. My main takeaway from my first watch through was "what are you doing obsessing over an octopus while you have a family at home that you seem to have forgotten about."
Aerogarden makes a dead simple, self contained 3 herb hydroponics set complete with reservoir and light. You basically just plug it in and eat herbs in a couple weeks. I've been using one for a couple years to grow basil and some other stuff, and I really like it. Not sure if linking to products on HN is discouraged, but should be easy to find with a quick search.
I'm curious about where you saw claims of Vue.js being a fully fledged MVC framework. Asking because I've always thought that Vue did a decent job of being forward about exactly what it is. Just reading the first paragraph of the guide (https://vuejs.org/v2/guide/):
"The core library is focused on the view layer only"
It seems to be pretty clear that it's meant to be a simple, easy to deploy, view layer only. I think it accomplishes that purpose pretty well. There are additional libraries (Vuex, VueRouter) which extend this core library into something coming close to a full MVVM framework, but those libraries are all maintained separately and not part of the core.
One of my favorite little-known tidbits of Los Angeles traffic history is the Alweg monorail proposal in 1963. The Alweg Monorail Company offered to finance and build a 43 mile monorail system, which would be repaid with MTA revenues. The proposal got derailed when Standard Oil lobbied heavily against it.
I'm convinced that if this proposal had gotten approved and built, the trajectory of public transportation in Los Angeles would have been significantly different, and the city would probably have a very efficient and extensive monorail system now. Los Angeles seems to be the perfect place for a monorail - it can be built around existing structures and doesn't require underground tunneling. I'm not sure that Los Angeles would be a 'car city' now if we had started building this monorail system 50 years ago.
"ClickBank.com is a secure site. The only way someone would be able to look up your order, which does not show any payment detail except your Credit Card type and last 4 digits on the card, is to know the exact order number and email address."
Strange, because the link in the ticket to the order still works and is viewable without any of that information.
How does this make the front page of HN? When I try viewing this on FF 13.0.1 on Mac, I only see what I presume is supposed to be the left sidebar (About Me, Resume, etc). I don't get any content. What is the value of this?
The same thing happens to me on Chrome 20.0.1132.47 on Win7.
Perhaps the webpage is having trouble handling the load.
In any case I think you shouldn't be so quick to judge before you have even been able to read the actual content.
Of course we should be quick to judge it. It's a web page built on websockets that doesn't work, and it was linked for us to see it working on websockets.
