We now have a government agency publicly disregarding an injunction by the Federal courts. This is bad. This goes far beyond this specific issue (which, while nasty, affects relatively few people). This sets a fucking awful precedent. This

Yes, there is. Is it the norm? Not at all, but that doesn't change the fact that some people do use heroin in moderation and without it drastically impacting their lives. This polarized look at heroin use further stigmatizes drug u

It seems a bit odd that they'd be enabling AVX in the bootloader. Any idea why they do that? Seems like something for the kernel to do during initialization (like most other features), not the bootloader.

And even if they were, what does that comment add to the discussion whatsoever?

I haven't worked in game console hacking since the Wii days, but I'm getting a Switch day one to do just that. I can't wait to be able to use this as a hackable game tablet and be able to throw it on the dock to play emulat

It doesn't really work for general anxiety, but I personally have a lot of physical symptoms of anxiety -- racing heart, tightness in the chest, pain, etc -- which mimic (but aren't) cardiac symptoms. The propranolol (once or twi

Oh cool! Glad to hear you've had success with it. I wish there was a list somewhere of Benjen-powered blogs; I often wonder how many folks are actually using it.

I finally admitted that it was time to start back on antidepressants, and also discovered propranolol (anti-anxiety med); it's changed my life in the most dramatic ways I can imagine. As of today I weigh 319 lbs -- from a peak of over

I can't speak to MBE, but for CVD I mostly just googled around and read any papers I could find. However, IIT Madras has an entire course on the subject, all of which are on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fsD

It's funny to see this pop up now. I've spent the past few days researching my big experiment project for next year: an open design CVD reactor for artificial diamonds. I don't intend to commercialize it at all, but if I can

I considered this years ago, and just now discovered two clubs immediately next to my house. My concern is that I'm coming at this from a place of fairly severe social anxiety; I do fine in business settings, but anything else causes

This isn't really a "yet" case -- it's just physics. Even if you assume that this is all light speed and that congestion, routing latency, etc aren't a factor -- it's still impossible. You need to send your i

This is a bit of an odd link. The linked file doesn't really do much of anything -- just opens it and checks to make sure the magic number is valid, essentially. The actual file reader is at https://github.com/afrighe

Honestly, I don't think I'd blink an eye at signing up for that. Space hotel trip alone is worth that! In fact, that makes me seriously think about the ITS for earth orbit activities. Add a nice big docking port to connect it to

Well, "most tasks" here is really just the things I've wanted to do -- not exactly an unbiased sample. Things like tracking objects, reading QR codes, matching more complicated hand gestures (than the built-in ones). Unfort

I'm honestly astounded that this works. The color camera on the Hololens is 1280x720, making it useless for most tasks. I love this device so much, but man, such a misstep. Super neat prototype though.

It's just me on this one. Honestly, I'm happy with how much it's bringing in at this point ($1-2k/mo, with the occasional jump up if a company sends their whole team through) and not looking to put any more time into it

Counting in binary gets you even further. If each finger is one bit, you can easily count to 2^10-1 == 1023. I frequently use this to keep track of running totals over 10.

I figured the same! But it handles type inference, extension methods, using static, etc like a champ. Even does completion for project.json. I don't use vcproj since I just use dotnet core.

I wish it did a bit more in the way of completing methods on objects (it sometimes will, but only in super clear-cut situations), but outside of that it's solid. Completely replaced Sublime for me, outside of the subl command line.

There's proof, but we're not going to link it because ... reasons. Why would they not include any proof that might exist?

I've recently switched to VS Code full time for C# and Python development and I couldn't be happier. While I miss some of the more intelligent intellisense from full VS, I love that I can do all of my dev on OS X. Its integratio

If you own the material, you can choose as many different licenses as you want, for any reason you want. Some distributors may not be happy about this, though.

That was utterly terrifying to watch, yet the man carrying it out did so with seemingly complete composure. I guess there's really only one type of person that gets to be ~40 years old and disarming mines: one that knows what they&#x2
