I dig it - I'd like to be able to use twitter for this (I suppose I could, nobody's stopping me) however I find that the twitter platform isn't really conducive to this sort of application - too much noise. A domain-specific

Apologies if this is a stupid question, but what is meant by ABC tune in this context? It seems to be a method of musical notation?

Was that title developed using lisp? If so (or if you worked on other Naughty Dog games which did use lisp) do you feel that it was a force multiplier in any way?

You're correct, it's been open-source for quite some time. I can also second your assertion that its worth checking out - I would say its a more accessible flow-based programming tool than noflo.js, which I found to have a more co

I wish more people knew the details surrounding this - its a clear case of bullying masquerading as social justice, and it couldn't have happened to a nicer person.

This is a pathetic answer, but for me its probably an NLP web endpoint I built. The task was to take a query and categorize it into one of several categories provided when the server was started. So, for example, if a user submitted the que

The thrust of the article seemed to me to be that the author feels her experiences are being erased by prominent views on women in tech - that folks like Kane are labelling her experiences as invalid.

Fantastic film. While Curtis is clearly subverting the documentary genre, the view he presents of the modern world (not only in Bitter Lake but in his other works) is a fascinatingly bleak and much-needed reminder that we humans do not know

Fantastic - I'll definitely be subscribing. I imagine that having a forum for users to discuss projects would be a good idea, have you considered adding one? I'm having trouble with the order form, however - it doesn't seem t

Damnit now I'm crying. The fact that Iwata-san's passing is being mourned by so many around the world really speaks to his contributions to gaming, and also to the fact that video games are already - and have been for 30+ years -

Iwata's love of his work was evident in all his interactions with fans around the world. Beyond simply being passionate about technology, he was passionate about bringing fun and happiness to his customers. We can all learn something f

FWIW tons of users have been shadowbanned for relatively light infringements (posting about TPP on /r/news, posting negative news items about Pao on various subreddits) since the 5 sub-reddits were shut down.

I'll also add that the vast majority of creative people don't choose their medium based on its potential reach - they choose it based on where their passions lie. In order to make great art, an artist has to be passionate about th

Free speech also refers to a closely-held cultural value in the US, that is to say the respect for private citizens to hold and espouse beliefs which others find distasteful or offensive. Saying "free speech only refers to the governme

My thoughts exactly. The way to change people's bigoted attitudes is to demonstrate that they're wrong, not to drive them into exile.

I understand your perspective on this and have a similar one, however I definitely think a double-standard is applied to these sorts of issues due to the fashionability of certain political stances. For example, Steve Klabnik has tweeted cr

While I don't condone hateful remarks (I'm queer myself, fwiw) I don't think its correct to equate being a member of a terrorist organization like the KKK with making a few bigoted tweets. That being said I haven't looke

There are lots of normal, high-functioning and even helpful users having discussions daily on 4chan. This is something that is often glossed over by folks who don't understand chan culture: its chaotic neutral, not chaotic evil.

Indeed, as a lifelong OCD sufferer, OCD has done more to keep me from achieving anything vaguely goal-oriented than to order my life efficiently. I don't get all huffy when I see someone use 'OCD' like the author does, that&#
