I've been carrying around my SB2 15" in my backpack's laptop pocket for about half a year. Here's the summary. - Zero problem with the fatness on my end. Looks kinda sexy tbh. - The keyboard is really good about from the

Our descendants are going to be seriously confused by our practice of limiting or taking away people's ability to earn money because they publicly used a wrong word. Or so I hope, at least.

Does anyone actually prefer reading text on a bright background? If so, what are your reasons? For me, the choice is obvious to the point that I'm often annoyed at the lengths I need to go to in order to browse the web comfortably. I f

Can we even prove whether a modern person is conscious? If so, shouldn't we be able to occasionally encounter such unconscious people, either occurring randomly by natural variation (especially given how recently the breakdown is cla

I've had no trouble registering my trial using Mailinator.com - no confirmation needed anyway.

I tend to wrap, or even refactor purchased assets to suit my needs. In that way it more closely resembles the workflow of collaboration with other developers - they provide a working implementation and you tweak it for your use case. This b

I have the exact opposite response. The wobbly windows look wacky and distracting. To my eye, windows are simply not meant to do that . I suppose it's a matter of what you're used to (as is often the case when it comes to UI opin

Let's be honest, the real mess is with UNIX filenames. I dare you to come up with a legitimate use case for allowing newlines and other control characters in a file name.

I don't know, this sounds extremely specific to me. I mean, you'd think they'd know exactly whether or not their website works on Firefox, especially in these enlightened auto-update times.

There's interesting work being done by the guys working on the Unity game engine. Their new data-oriented programming model (still based on C#) promises efficient packing of objects into arrays of properties which (supposedly) results

Here's my strangely unpopular opinion these days: it still counts as racism when it's white people that you're negatively stereotyping.

Thanks. I wish I had an extension that redirects to text-only npr automatically (their button doesn't redirect to the actual article and I'm assuming they broke their own site on purpose). One of those days I might actually sit do

I'm guessing they optimized for mobile and forgot that desktop is still a thing. Works pretty decently on Firefox on my Android phone. I usually prefer text documents to "apps" that hijack scrolling but this one seemed usable

That must be one of the silliest hacks I've ever heard, right up there with oven-baking electronics to fix loose solder joints. I love it!

The 2018 Stack Overflow Developer Survey [1] puts VSCode at almost double the number of developers compared to Atom (34.9% vs 18%). You're right about the package count: atom.io lists 7654 packages, compared to 6802 at marketplace.visu

There is no race, it's all just brains doing overactive classification. I wish that we got over this as a species already.

To me that sounds more like an immediate presupposition than an argument. I don't see why I'd favor an explanation of "consciousness is computation within a special magic meat brain" over simply "consciousness is co

I fail to observe the difference between simulating a human mind on a computer and on a synaptic network. Why would a program run differently depending on the underlying hardware? (assuming sufficiently faithful simulation as opposed to som

You have broadened the category widely enough to include both audiences. Given that guys typically watch gaming streams and undressed females for different reasons, I think there's finer distinctions in terms of which the audiences don

It's easy to be salty when you're an unappreciated streamer and there's girls out there having an easier time with less effort. However, they're even not competing for the same audience. As to the second thing, it's

Oh come on, why can't we just have fun? The site already has a "no nudity allowed" policy and a per-stream "mature audiences only" warning screen.

That is not a 3d model, much less a pretty good one.

Is there a non-negligible fraction of ads that do this for this to be an actual problem? Or is it another article riding the wave of the media crusade against Facebook? Genuine question, I don't have a Facebook account and I live in a

I keep coming across this idea and as much as I dislike advertising, I have trouble seeing how making it illegal would reduce consumption. Intuitively, I've always perceived it as a zero sum game. Never heard of anyone who started sitt
