I think this is deceiving because they were boot strapped with fossil fuels. When they can manufacture all the equipment needed to generate the renewable electricity with the renewable electricity then I think we're getting somewhere.

Agreed. I've always found the group social stuff to be contrived because the work is the only thing I have in common with most folks at work. That's not to say I haven't made friends through work but it's always been iso

This is crazy. I've been mulling these UI ideas around in my head for years and I've always had this vision in my mind of something very close to the C64.

I've actually been thinking about this type of interface for years and have never really got the opportunity to implement my ideas. Are you familiar with the Raskins' work? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canon_

I'm seeing more and more dancing around what I think is a desire to have a computing system much closer to the UI of emacs/lisp machine. It seems the desire is to use the power of natural language to interact with the machine with

It’s pretty easy to go full procedural with static where classes function only as a name space. Also, I’ve worked in code bases that were a Frankenstein mixture of deeply nested inheritance hierarchies mixed with attempts to be fully functi

With Java I've seen an increasing problem with programming style in large projects because of it's kitchen sink support of so many paradigms. In addition to code readability it also effects code reviews because many cases come don

Newsgroups, IRC, Email Lists, Blogs... The biggest change is the creation of the term cyber bullying. In the "old" days one just didn't pay attention to opinions they disagreed with. Now they seek government to impose draconi

Puppy is very interesting in that at first glance the distro comes of as sort of a toy distro. But then when you look closer at the files system and the security ramifications related to that, it's a very serious distro.

Sadly I expect Big Tech is looking at remote work for the wrong reason, mainly labor cost arbitrage. I say sadly because I think Big Tech could do a lot of social good in an ever increasing divided America by making a concerted effort to em

One of the best examples of this are old POS systems, which are mostly ncurses type applications. The people that use these fly around the interface so efficiently and are very productive.

Who said anything about a mouse and or touchpad mainly? As far as I know, the studies were for keyboard and mouse in combination and actually predated touchpads.

Why not the IntelliJ Vim plugin with Clion? I think the better distinction is Vim for editing text, IDE for performing non text editing tasks.

One of the statements I see a lot is that mouseless, keyboard only HCI is faster. But as far as I know, to the extent that any real studies have been done at all, this assertion is false. I don't have the references at hand but I think

Having worked with AWS serverless for a couple of years, I think the architecture is not well suited for replacing a monolithic application. If horizontal scaling is an issue, I think containers are better suited. Serverless seems to be a b
