Git, Linux, Python, Sublime Text, Redis, Postgresql, VLC. Also Ubuntu, I remember how I always felt having a half broken setup when I started using it in 2007 but for the past 2-3 years it just worked, really stable, no more release upgrade

Does anyone know if there is a good way to do server-side rendering (svg files) of D3 charts while being able to reuse the same code in a browser? We do a lot of charts at work to visualize electricity consumption and are currently thinking

I read about someone who described his own salary negotiation: he writes the minimum salary he's willing to take, the recruiter writes the maximum they're willing to pay , then you show your numbers. If minimum > maximum, call

I'm not advocating for anonymous instant votes like we can do it here. Researcher already do peer-review for free, allow them to do it on an open platform with free publication afterwards, I don't see why it couldn't work.

So one commenter said that "Journals are used as a proxy for quality", another that they loose so much time browsing through low-quality papers. Isn't the root issue that we need an open and standard way to review, sort and r

Well, the actual disk you buy in the store, no, that's mass production. Nonetheless music, movies, books are still covered by intellectual property laws and considered as intellectual works, but yeah that's not legally art. The la

In France we have a legal definition of what constitutes an original work of art. For instance you can produce up to 8 original copies of a sculpture, that's art. Wanna sell 9 copies, you're no longer an artist but an artisan. Tha

Ah thanks, I missed this one when reading the article. Some other commenter talks about having a coworker with aphantasia but still being able to dream so they may well be a whole spectrum of what people can / cannot visualize.

by blaze33 10y ago
So you cannot visualize things while trying to but do you dream at night ? About psychedelic drugs, it's not something I would advocate lightly as it has the potential to mess you up pretty badly. From my limited experience it was more

by blaze33 10y ago
And now I wonder what someone with aphantasia would see using psychedelic drugs, or while meditating... Still nothing ? Could that help ?

From what I recall css class names should be semantic because they're in the html code and should relate to the content and not to its current presentation. So class="col-xs-4" is unsemantic. Just searched for "semantic

Instead of doing system administration with root, couldn't we have a system user with the same privileges as root except it wouldn't have write access to the files of some users (like your clients) ? So you could still rm -rf &#x2

Ha, good point, maybe the horse cannot run for 24h non-stop when that would be possible for a human. Nevertheless if a horse can cover 100 miles in ~6 hours, he still has 18 hours for the remaining 80 miles, so allowing him to rest (which i

If you look at the tv that's in the room, it looks like it's actually showing the real live 3d reconstruction with what I'd guess is a 500-1000ms latency. So the main video that is in sync (when the guy has it's own holo
