When I was younger, my friends & I would carry this game around on our pocket USB drives so that we could quickly launch it up on our school's computers any chance we got. Good times. It's a surprisingly intricate game, but I

Well, I tried it along with ~10 other people who already knew their prescription and it was self-reportedly accurate every time. It would be nice if this was at least an option for people who might not have vision insurance or for whatever

If that house or car provides sufficiently compelling features or other benefits then, yeah, I would totally buy one. Should it be legal? I mean, why not? If you don’t want one, just don’t buy one. There are plenty of other houses and cars

Lacking “understanding” doesn’t make GPT-3 less impressive and also doesn’t make comparisons to human abilities unwarranted. I read the prompt, and I expected that this was the beginning of some kind of fiction. In my mind, it sounded like

You have me beat, I don’t think I got my HostGator account until I was 13. Also not old. My girlfriend got a traditional CPanel hosting setup a couple of months ago. Being so caught up in my tech bubble, I kind of forgot such quaint things

Many people buy others gifts, often with little care or thought, just for the sake of giving a gift, not because they necessarily want to. I personally hate receiving gift cards or commodity gifts. I would rather receive a thoughtful gift (

Maybe I’m naive, but isn’t this exactly the type of thing capitalism is good at doing (lowering prices)? My understanding is that greedy capitalists would love to build more, denser housing here in the Bay, but are unable to due to zoning r

Fusion / Solidworks always feels so clumsy to me when trying to design a woodworking project like a table or something. It works, but it somehow feels like the wrong tool for the job. Maybe it’s better for more complex woodworking proj
