Narcism. I'm like the smartest guy in the world, and I can't believe how mediocre everyone else is.

It is useful, you don't need to worry about insects and infectious diseases. Most pesticides are damaging to the surrounding ecology. Moreover, with the way industrial farming is currently done, most plants are genetically similar to e

Only once for the containing canvas. A direct access to the canvas pixel data and webGL offscreen rendering is all you need. With a few hacks, we're already 90% there. I expect by next year to see an explosion of this. There already ar

Forcing the DOM, JS and CSS was a mistake. The problem was that you couldn't have alternatives. wasm is going to disrupt front end by allowing you to have a strong typed language that you can use to build your own framework like the go

Now all we need is to expose a graphics context to wasm. No need for DOM support.

The topics are inherently dry and boring. Let's face it, we aren't spitting the atom or sending someone to the moon here.

It's a shame, they used to be good. I really like the idea behind Assassin's Creed. And Sands of Time is a god tier A++ game.

Speaking of Ubisoft, is it just me or do they repackage the same game with different skins over and over gain? I swear Assassin's Creed, Far Cry, Ghost Recon and Watch Dogs are the same game with different skins.

I'm not that attached to the Disney IP at all. I don't care about Pixar, Mickey Mouse, Starwars or Marvel. I'm very attached to video games, especially from the gamecube/ps2 to the wii/ps3 era. That was my childhood

Nintendo, unlike most companies are focused on making games with gameplay. Most companies are making movies with gameplay segments in between.

It's not for games. We are dealing with big data, we need to highly interactive UIs on the web that we can use to communicate and interact with this information. Something like this is where I see the future of web: http://g

I am doing something similar. The problem is not just HTML/CSS it's also JS. You need a strongly typed language, and have a scripting language on top. What I'm doing now is a Rust based framework, with an Erlang like scriptin

HTML and DOM is the current way that is forced on us. What if I had a better model? I can't implement it myself. The DOM was meant to describe documents, not interactive webpages. HTML and CSS never had to compete with other ideas or t

No webassembly is a solution to it. JS just sucks. Actually so does HTML and CSS. The entire web ecosystem is a closed platform. The reason that the front end stack is constantly bloated is because JS,HTML & CSS are awful. If the people

It's not about free speech. You are trying to tame chaos, it isn't going to work and you just wasted millions of dollars on nothing.

They will sue if they see an emerging threat to the survivability of their core buisness. No one can touch Google on their ads and search ecosystem so they won’t sue. This is an illusion of benevolence.

Experts aren't wrong at all. The experts that Silicon Valley likes to favour and pour billions of dollars in are completely wrong, and it's funny how these best of the best are completely ignoring advancements that have taken plac

80%-90% accuracy on your arbitrary data set is meaningless.Your cute NLP algorithms suffer miserably in real life. You are severely underestimating how complex language is if you think getting a high accuracy on these narrow tasks is a mean

Luckily no one needs to worry about Google ever creating advancements AI (they can't, they lack the required skillset). Google is the modern day IBM, and AlphaGo is just another DeepBlue. I wonder when Google will make a gimmick like W

Chatbots are the next big thing. The reason they didn't take over is because NLP and AI sucks (and "sucks" is putting it very lightly). Current AI is stuck in a rut, and they don't even realize it. True innovation in AI

I want something to new to come up and shatter Facebook, Google etc. We need more internet companies, and right now Facebook & Google reek with a vile stench. They lack creativity and innovation. They are the IBM of the current generati
