Is it just me or did the mention of nesting FSMs immediately raise red flags? All I could think of was the rigid hierarchy problem found in OOP- what if your transitions don’t neatly fit in hierarchies? Everything still gets complex. That s

For the longest time I’ve had a tough time explaining why some colors worked together better than others, not to mention how to pick good colors (for apps, websites, any kind of design really). I’ve finally been able to put some of those fi

I think a lot of people seem to gloss over how much of an effect being free had on capturing far more market share than any paid title did before it. It doesn’t matter if fortnite was or wasn’t the first 100+ player battle royals game. Game

From a parent’s perspective: money for time is not what one would call ‘amazing’- one of those two you can never get back. I, and I imagine many parents, would see it as a compromise more than anything. But- given the enthusiasm in the sibl

Well- the React example doesn’t really restart rendering from scratch (as you yourself mentioned). And in larger applications you’d still prefer to not ‘redraw from scratch’ in React either and build on top of a previous setup. Really what

I imagine that viruses could very much be ‘loyal’- if we’re gene editing you could not so theoretically target ethnic-specific genes to attack.

Amazon bought Twitch for $1B I believe, not $2B. How accurate are the the other figures you cited? If possible, please do provide links for figures you cite- it’s incredibly useful.

Please provide a more appropriate word to describe those phrases. They’re definitely unprofessional- but unprofessional doesn’t quite fit here. Also- nothing about disagreeing with here. There’s language that is appropriate in some contexts

Word of advice: your usage of immature expressions very much lowers the professionalism of your product and how much I’d look to trust it. In the comments here, phrases such as ‘user starts hating YourNote for some reason’ and ‘they go rekt

I’m seeing this in other businesses too. Hell- some airlines now run ads on their inflight tv systems right after their safety videos. You, as a passenger who has paid their fare for a flight, must sit still, strapped in, and watch an ad on

I think the definition of viable isn’t really up for debate. But I do agree with your sentiment: There may have been a need and you may have created value but perhaps the need/value wasn’t viable at the target size set for the business

UE4 blueprints are an example of a domain-specific VPL that I've mentioned above (a good example of where VPLs can work great). They however do not solve the problem of working with abstractions well- UE4 blueprints are akin to, how th

Pros The author well formulates the limitations of VPLs (Visual programming languages). Cons The rant seems to jumble in VPLs for general purpose programming with VPLs for domain-specific usecases. So although VPLs may be "a bad id

Not only is it trivial to just cut at 33.33 or what have you, your argument breaks down at cut it into 1/5s. Good luck with imperial. And has to be accurate to .02mm. In metric? This is a no brainer

I think you’re focusing too much on the price aspect. What about the elephant in the room? Having to be tethered to a computer? That’s the real innovation IMO. Moreover, one of the other popular usages for VR is social (and def on facebook’

I think at the end of the day there was simply no interest in the proposal. Nadako was "not opposed to it" but that was about it. Personally, I would have liked to not have seen the conversation ended with a "that's what
