A lot of xenophobia in this article. The amount of data Facebook, Google and others are collecting on us is worrying when we think of what might happen if it gets into the "wrong" hands. Right now thoughts of China buying Facebook illicit t

Coming from a smaller city in Florida I was surprised at how many cash-only restaurants there are in Berkeley, I mean, it's the Bay! Granted, Berkeley seems to have its own notion of what it's culture should be and people don't seem to mind

I agree with your statements, but perhaps the appeal of a github for science isn't the technology, it's the culture that comes with it. You can run your own git servers and submit patches over email, but when you can fork with the click of

I'm almost certain this is why I failed my phone interview. It wasn't that I implemented an inefficient sort right away, its that I didn't talk about how/why it was and what I could do about it with more time. I really don't like the idea o

I came here to say this. Not just graphics, but indexing arrays in general on the GPU for use in OpenCL or CUDA. We are working on optimizing our neighbor searches using this. A good book: Foundations of Multidimensional and Metric Data Str

While I don't hold your personal philosophy, after reading several of your posts I can see where you come from. I'm inclined to be an OSS zealot but you know what they say, give an inch and they'll want a mile! It does make me want to rant

wallhack is something you can't get around, a user can always control how their graphics are displayed, hence you can't trust them. You either accept this or change the game. You can make it harder to do (Blizzard's Warden, Valve's VAC) but

In highschool some friends and I came across a method for duplicating items in Diablo II and we sold the items using PayPal by advertising in the chat rooms. We didn't do the actual hacking of the game, but it felt like hacking to get paid
