I think it's more likely that AR or VR will be used for this purpose. It's already pretty trivial because they've already created the 3D model representing the data, all they have to do is throw it into a game engine.

Why would you disable the context menu? For something so simple, this application's front-end seems incredibly over-complicated.

That's not a government issue. You're welcome to control your own children's internet use, but it is not your right to control how any other family deals with these situations. Edit: You're free to cite examples of child

@3 I hope that they don't implement that. Good navigation code is half of the game. If you want to see examples of competitions like this, many teams for Battlecode hosted by MIT have open sourced their code.

This was my main introduction as well. (I'm 21.) I remember looking through the TI-84 manual and reading through the commands to see what I could do.

I use shift-it for my basic tiling/resizing concerns. Maximizing is just option-command-F, which is pretty natural to hit for me. https://github.com/fikovnik/ShiftIt

Almost any MIT affiliate can get a *.mit.edu domain name and host a website on it. The student in charge of the original probably forgot to protect against a simple SQL injection attack. They bypassed that student's security and his website

Many of my friends have the same views of Mercury during discussions and I find it funny. I learned about these peculiarities of planets from Dav Pilkey (known for his Captain Underpants books) in his RIcky Ricotta's series. ( http://en.wik

I've been sent the referral link about fifteen different times in the past hour from distinct people. It's been sent out on most mailing lists, shared like crazy on facebook and in facebook groups, etc.

What he's saying is that ivankirigin should have said that himself. I don't know that he has any credibility to his statement and wasn't going to give it any merit until akent made me realize that ivankirigin had first-hand experience.

The error is when the argument to the `challenge` command is anything other than a number. Try `challenge monkey`. It then accepts zero for N, and the computer always picks a positive number. Resulting in a negative.

After doing a lot of work on a specific project, you aren't going to be writing code very frequently. Most of your work will go towards manipulating, editing, and applying minor (or major) fixes to your existing codebase. When you aren't in

As well, non of the screen movement commands and some miscellaneous commands aren't working. It really took out almost all of the flow I have when I'm editing files. Vi commands: ^D ^E ^B . J and probably more that I haven't tried

Very innovative, I love seeing educational apps that make the player think and solve puzzles instead of just repeatedly showing them rules to memorize.

Yeah I understand. I was describing how I did it in Algebra II. They would give up f(n) = 5x^3 +4x + 8 and we would know that it was O(x^3). We also understood that it was as n -> infinity, hence why f(n) = 2x^4 would have a larger grow

Of course, but part of the benefit from studying CS is that you'll be able to recognize intuitively when there is or there should be a better solution. Let's say you want a data structure that performs three operations. Insert, Delete, and

Yeah, I feel like there's no way they'll accept a late application a month and half late. Rough. Do you think there were any drop-outs that left an open spot? I think I could catch up to speed with the rest of the students quickly, they hav
