Those CSS animations would be a success in the web of the old days. Reminds me of the whole rounded borders thing: all those hacks and loops to make it work in all browsers (transparent images in the corners, lol), and then finally when the

What this reminds me is of those hierarchies Cat extends Animal... In these simple "real-world-inspired" examples it seems to make sense, but in programming I'd say a lot of times there's simply no good name for the inte

For instance, Mathematica is great, we can actually use and see the domain language (which is symbols, subscripts, Greek letters) while coding mathematical formulas instead of weirdly translating everything into English. I for one would lov

I'm tired just by reading what those super productive people do. I can't imagine having the energy and motivation to just sit down and do all those stuff. Must be a nice brain to live in, though. I'd give an arm and a kidney

Yeah, I wish I found those places, I really hate alcohol. I do hope I see it legalized one day, because someone like me can't even think of where to start to look for them.

Yeah, think of how programming languages invent and reinvent stuff to handle the interaction with Make and native libraries, how we have generators of generators of Makefiles... Heck, even Docker's use case is mostly because of the liv

If my experience in Physics is somewhat typical, it's barely taught as an interpretation, it's just as Feynman put it "shut up and calculate".

I'd count that as the cravings stopping. I feel just as shitty afterwards when I eat junk food, both psychologically and physiologically, yet I can't resist to it when it's readily available.

I wish I got to this stage where people lose their cravings. While I'm at home I can control my diet pretty well, but as soon as there's junk food in front of me I look like a pig. And I've lost like 30 pounds, to put it into
