I really liked "The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle" too.

Sample of the music: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=swAicg0GjNg . It deserves to be so much better known.

I feel like "The Fountain" left an imprint on my soul. It's weird, but probably the most beautiful movie I've ever seen (especially its music and filmography).

I love the illustrations :) You should create a series of kids books explaining such topics, and I'll buy them... for my kids.

I just sprained my ankle on Monday, and I've not iced it, and been trying to use it lightly.

How does it compare/contrast with Tornado?

I enjoy chess (though I haven't played much recently). I definitely see similar skills in both cases (lining up multiple steps to achieve my desired goal). But it's hard to tell whether or not playing chess makes me a better progr

This is a file encryption web app contained in a single .html file (so you can save it and use it offline). It's output is a single .html file containing both the decryption software and your encrypted files.

Cool idea, but to data mine human communication, software must come to understand their language, rather than trying to get people to change their language #ddv2 DISAGREE https://github.com/neyer/dewDrop

Nice meta question. HackerNews seems like a good choice.

I felt the same. I think the main aspect about these images that makes me like them is how everything feels connected, which, is what the AI is trying to find: connections. Honestly, can anyone tell me where I could order large prints of so

Nice idea. I've wanted something like this before when I was looking for cool conferences to attend. I added OSCON to it.

How about when it's from your bank but from someone else's account? I think that satisfies the crime predicate :)

Just to clarify: there is value in mainstream medicine, but there is also danger. I believe in evidence-based medicine, but I also believe that human greed is very active in the pharmaceutical industry, and that greed causes all kinds of lu

I am all for evidence-based medicine... this link is arguing that terminally-ill patients should not have the right to try various experimental treatments, which I find appalling..."those who sacrifice liberty for security deserve neit

My uncle had stage 3 colon cancer and beat it using a mixture of both traditional and alternative medicine (such as a raw food diet and some other treatment which wasn't available in the US). I strongly recommend looking outside the ma

Another little benefit of this approach I just thought of: if you have a really complex CPU-bound calculation, this method could prevent it from blocking everything else in your event loop.

The email extractor is super useful. I wrote a command-line script for doing this, but will probably start using this instead.

It's not a bad thing to put in quality assurance measures in place. It's a bad thing, though, if so much time is spent on QA, that there you are rushing to write the actual code. Rushed coding does not produce quality.

I wrote (non-critical) software for the A400M. I don't think that standards like DO-178B necessarily lead to higher quality code; my experience was that 80-90% of time was spent doing documentation, testing, and in general, trying to p

Arg! I just finished listening to another rendition of Metamorphosis about a month ago. An interesting thing about the book: I didn't know what it was really about until the very last sentence.

Does it have a recursive dictionary merge - something like merge({'a': {'b': 1}}, {'a': {'c': 2}}) -> {'a': {'b': 1, 'c': 2}} ?
