Not a legal obligation but a support obligation. Documenting implies stability of an API. It says, use this thing we intend for you to use. Usually, you mark an API as deprecated, and often provide an alternative, before removing it. Someti

YCombinator is an incubator for startups. There's a lot of people working at companies that are much smaller than yours. There are more small companies than medium or large companies. Basecamp has made an impact on software and startup

OMG, I was having the hardest time figuring out what 3 regexes applied to each hex. Then I reloaded partway through and the HIGHLIGHTING started working. Reload if you don't see the regexes turn bold when you click in a hex!

I don't know if I'm stating the obvious, but you only need to bootstrap if you're writing a compiler in the language it's compiling. So any language compiler written in a different language isn't bootstrapped. Even

The theory could be correct in general (dreams are a result of a evolutionary trait that keeps visual circuits active at night) while not apply to you specifically, especially if you are different than most people when it comes to vision&#x

The Model 3 has a setting to do that. The Bolt does not. If you plug it in, it's charging to full. With the Bolt, all you can do is use tricks like scheduling the charging late (so that it might not be fully charged by the time you dri

The scrollbars in the demo feel backwards to me. Like Mac trackpad scrolling vs mouse scrollwheels. I want left to be 0 frame acceleration and left to be backwards in time. I kind of also want the graphs to be reverse order too, but I get w

I don't think that's a downside. If you have that superpower, you can build it at a different place. The downside I find is that some people who can do this assume everyone can do this. If complexity is not difficult for you then

Quantum mechanics deals with very small particles interacting with very strong forces. Gravity is so weak it can be ignored. Relativity deals with so much gravity that spacetime is warped. Neither is appropriate for the other and they are o
