Hmm, does this apply if I use leased server in a leased space.

It's more likely that this rumors are a move to extract even more cash from telcos.

How is this news? It's been announced March 23rd.

Not Samsung?

This serves no purpose for the user. Just a marketing gimmick.

A GAE datastore delete takes multiple operations because it also updates indexes:

1 entity delete = 2 Writes + 2 Writes per indexed property value + 1 Write per composite index value

All from this page: http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/billing.html#Billable_... And more about why it is so: http://code.google.com/appengine/articles/life_of_write.html

Well, the OP is just another coder who can't read docs, but can write a blog.

Regardless of how decent Google's AppEngine documentation is, this is indeed a bug.

The correct behavior would be to recalculate the indices just once, instead of reindexing after every single delete operation.

It then becomes

    2*entities + 2*indexed property values + composite index values

operations to delete all entities in the datastore, instead of

    2*entities + 2*entities*indexed property values + entities*composite index values

operations.

To delete all entities should be free. Who cares about indexes? `rm -rf`, done.

In any case, good that something is pointed out that can and will be easily overlooked :)

I deleted all indices referencing those entities before starting the entity deletions.

The abstract says:

"Disclosed are methods and devices for transitioning a mixed-mode autonomous vehicle from a human driven mode to an autonomously driven mode. Transitioning may include stopping a vehicle on a predefined landing strip and detecting a reference indicator. Based on the reference indicator, the vehicle may be able to know its exact position. Additionally, the vehicle may use the reference indictor to obtain an autonomous vehicle instruction via a URL. After the vehicle knows its precise location and has an autonomous vehicle instruction, it can operate in autonomous mode."

So it does not patent "driverless vehicle", but a particular method of transition from mixed-mode to driverless mode.

"Driverless Vechicle" is a compound adjective modifying patent. It's not a patent for (all) driverless vechicles, it's a patent regarding driverless vehicles.

USB and PDMI are standard connectors. What part don't you understand? And, btw, how do you rip off the cable?

As cube13 mentioned, eh, not so much, there:

I'm not expert in parse or stackmob, so I can't compare it feature-by-feature. But there are two general advantages of LeanEngine:

1. It's open-source so you have all the freedoms that come with OSS. You can tweak it, add features, fork it, etc..

2. It runs on your AppEngine instance. So you have full ownership/access to your data. Also AppEngine is proven to be scalable, has tons of features, has SLA and is (still) cheaper than comparable cloud solutions.

Second,

One could mess up "the system" by printing several times on the same sheet of paper (possibly also changing orientation top-down).
