> Does money buy happiness? I don't know, but it definitely buys time to pursue happiness more efficiently.
Money buys time. The more you are willing to spend to quickly solve some of life's problems, the more time you will have to do what matters to you, whether that be seeking happiness, money or knowledge.
Money also takes away distractions. I started using a wash and hold service in NYC. About once a week, on my way to work, I drop off my clothes, on the way home I pick them up washed and folded. Something so simple only saves me ~1 hour a week, but not having to think about and planning to allocate time is worth so much more.
This is the most educating thing I have seen on HN in a while.
I went through the code for each, starting with the simplest and working my way up to the much more interesting and complex.
The only thing missing is a way to edit the JS and see the result. Looks like it's easy to use an embedded jsfiddle[0], but I have not tried it myself.

If you look on at the right edge of the grey-ish tab bar, you will see an "edit" link. This opens up a link to CodePen which lets you fork the snippet and mark changes to it. Here is one such link: http://codepen.io/kangax/pen/wDuxl
Agree, would love to see a post-mortem blog post. I would also be interesting in finding out what they will do with the technology they created, it would be great if they open sourced it!
One sensor that I have not seen mentioned anywhere is GPS. The pair I tried a few weeks ago had GPS built in and it worked when glass was not connected to a phone or WiFi.
Hmmm... True. I did miss the GPS. Well i was just looking for sensors in the sense that Android defines them. GPS is in a class of its own. There is indeed mention of some sort of "Elton" GPS. Well i am on my mobile now. Travelling home after a satisfying day's work. :P Will dig up more on it once i get home...
