It's interesting to consider! And it seems like this got a lot of points, but no one knows what to say constructively about it. Perhaps moving from a magic situation of a context moving between the server and the client (which is an aw

Sounds like if we make a JS to BF transpiler, then we can complete this with any language that can be transpiled to JS. Just imagine the applications of this! The next step would be to make this into an eventual Quine.

There's already ASICs for Lua and other to-simplistic-bytecode out there for low power applications (If I recall correctly anyway with tessel.) What's to say when these things are settled, we are left with something that handles a

Will Oracle, the ever righteous ask toolbar installer, sue Microsoft because of this? That, or will the makers of such toolbars do so?

My father sent a small comment chain to me as well on a topic like this on one of his blog posts. <First guy> June 3, 2015 at 10:12 am I think software developers like to impress people with how many lines of code they can write. <

With time and mass production, the module creation time won't matter as much. Sure, you might need some lead time for the parts to arrive or stock up, but your construction crew can still construct new buildings already in the pipeline

Already been discussed, and the title is "There is No Now." Very good reading material though.

So, something akin to magnetic relays at the nanometer level? I have a hard time believing the durability presented (especially with remarks on how it might as well be an infinite number) for a process that involves movement and contact poi

At a few dev meetups, some presenters just did markdown documents with enough new lines to be equivalent to a page. That way they just pressed pgdn on their laptop. On another note, some lecture-style slides (where review post-presentation

Is it instantaneous or is it the known or observable state propagated at the speed of light? Perhaps unrelated, but they have already shown that entangled particles propagate state at the speed of light. So we probably wont have any Ender&#

Looking forward to a full breakdown on this :)

This kind of stuff could easily be resolved by including a specific and complete list in the first place. Telling someone they aren't presentable isn't the same as telling a mostly well dressed person that the host wants them to w

Why don't they do something similar but with ARM? We already have plenty of proven stuff working on that architecture. Also, the propreties that they are getting feel like being knocked back a decade--is it due to the fabrication facil

Sounds similar to what happens when apple adds functionality an app used to provide. At least you are not in the situation where they took an MIT licensed project of yours, brought in a few functions, and because you made the project and yo

Do we have a svn blame for parts of bills? Who keeps putting these in? Are they aware that they are, or are they just copying from what others with other interest give them?

This happened to me before with someone I worked with. Saw some weird hits from California, the next day tons of stuff from Russia, china, eastern European counties I have never heard of before.. Now I just don't trust giving private i

I've seen tech support watching netflix between calls. Though this was at a university and these were students, so they also did homework when they weren't assisting people.

Thr least they could do is hold a patch up for a year that would allow people to general purpose the hardware they have. This is one of the reasons why I am reluctant to go with technology that has almost no hope for an alternate backend wh

Although non-standard, Microsoft sure did several novel things back in the day here. Then they decided not to do the actual standards correctly and held a lot of things back since nobody updated these things. On the topic of Microsoft and t

This sounds a lot like how an oil is used to look at slides in medical labs. For example, it may be standard procedure to smear a sample along the slide, place it on a stainer, retrieve it later, put some oil on it, and the lens of the actu

This is a work of art in of its self, never mind the icons made. It is also inspiring for ascii to graphics representation utilities as well. I wonder if this could be extended to make shape holder content, where in the art you can specify

I am surprised they didn't mention how they handle services and platforms. Then again, those are just conveniences to individuals, not something that can affect a business or livelihood like search and ads.

Yes, and the service has remained available to most users. It's just the initial flood knocked stuff out for about 2 minutes as the worker threads dropped their request queues.

I thought this (what is proposed) is how they already do it. I guess not. It does seem more fair for the artist this way, though it probably means they need to do more crunching with map reduce or something.
