It's super awesome, especially when the professor is effectively just transcribing the textbook onto the blackboard while mumbling in a monotone. Really demonstrates the value you're getting for that $40-50k tuition.

My mother's school toyed with iPads for a few years. According to her, the biggest problem is that trying to print from them was a nightmare. I dunno whether that is a lack of driver support, the school IT being too ignorant to set thi

My first car, we couldn't keep the gas gauge working reliably, so I had to reckon the mileage from the odometer to keep track of whether it needed to be filled. At least it did have dual gas tanks, so in the worst case, you'd noti

Berlin has the finest public transit I've ever seen, by a long shot. Still, you get in places where waiting for a bus to come is longer than just walking to the U/S-bahn station.

> You can poke fun, but there's a reason everyone opts for things like Electron. It's the most satisfying way to build frontends for a lot of people. I'm not convinced it's particularly good reasons. I think ignorance

F# is high on my list of things to dive into when I get time. I've also got Seven Languages in Seven Weeks in my queue of books to go through. Do some DirectX or OpenGL graphics work. Play with mobile development, either native or Xa

I keep a Windows 98 VM around for the occasional nostalgia trip into the bits of my gaming back collection that haven't found their way onto Steam or GOG yet. I'm still waiting on Sierra's Civil War General[1] to get a rerele

Good luck to those losing their jobs, and good luck to the university staff and students - you're going to need it. HCL is terrible.

No, but I was learning on an 1985 Ford F150 with a 5-speed manual transmission. There were so few controls available that my lawn mower was more complex. My 2010 F150 now has a baffling array of buttons and switches and extra levers hanging

No, please, no. It'd be nice if somebody would get back to maintaining nuget packages for front-end stuff, the way it was a few years ago, before everyone collectively threw in the towel, shrugged, and said, "I guess npm isn'

Close Combat is one of my favorite series ever. The morale and fatigue mechanics were some of the best I've ever seen. And the graphics were fantastic for the time, really excellent aerial photography-inspired hand-made maps and sprite

Working four tens is the best, if you can swing it. Even better if you can get a schedule where you alternate Fridays and Mondays so that you get four-day weekends half the time. Especially if you commute any significant distance. Skippin

I hope that with the advent of WebAssembly, Javascript can be thrown in the dustbin of history. Isomorphism, with a better language to do it in, sounds like a lot of fun. Some days, I like to imagine a world where browsers had Python embedd

I didn't the last time I went on vacation in Europe. My cell phone carrier also is atrocious and charges usurious international roaming charges, so that was a contributing factor, but it's really nice to unplug and go off the grid

Alternatively, you can take a different page out of King's book, and get ripped on Schlitz and PBR and cocaine and write away in a blackout haze. Most of us probably won't produce some of our greatest work like he did, however [1]
