This made me smile, maybe the future isn't so grim. I hope this doesn't end with an undue amount of fallout for sama such that he's discouraged from doing something like this again should the situation require.

The comments have made me reconsider my question. I also saw the article about a YC basic income experiment. Have you considered structuring the experiment in terms of creating a intentional basic income community? An example fitting my boh

Hey Sam, where do I apply for YC basic income? : ) Many people have no problems in life except those related to not having enough dough. I know a number of really creative/talented individuals who would be a lot better off if they didn

Designing and printing a 3D object is fundamentally much more complex than typing out an essay and hitting print. There's always going to be a big learning curve for someone trying to get into 3D printing/modelling for the first t

I'm not sure if you meant to convey a judgement relative quality. I think that the this video is more impressive than 8 floppy drives. I never thought a single printer would be capable of that tonal quality and that range of polyphonic

I haven't actually used your software, I was only going off of the fact that you're in a browser, by virtue of which I could be reasonably confident in what I said in my post. I'd love to try a demo. I'm not calling into

Yeah but Maya is you know, production quality software. There's a reason people use $4000+ software suites. I'm sure Clara is lovely for people trying to whet their appetite for 3D modelling but it's unfair to present it as e

I bet you could get a few thousand of these made for like 10 grand? I'm glad people who just want to cause mayhem aren't competent.

This has piqued my interest more than any other similar challenge/game I've seen in the past. What's the second problem domain you're starting out with? I hope it's to do with graphics/parallelized matrix math

I think that's probably a good distinction/system. I grew up in the Czech Republic and I was allowed access to knives at age 3 or so. Sometimes I cut myself. My grandpa would just tell me "Nešikovne maso musí prič." whic

Nobody is going to steal your unproven hardware idea at the TechShop. Don't worry.

I once spent ~2 hours explaining all of this (well maybe not all of it) to a friend of mine who was studying sound design at the time. He didn't believe me. I even transcoded some 24/192 FLAC Pink Floyd I had lying around and made

Decent bikes from the as far back as the 60's mostly use standard threading and can be easily repaired with new parts. I ride a bike from 1971, it's quite light and fast, and like any bike that's properly cared for doesn&#x27

So your main selling points versus the competition is lack of wires and ease of use? Would you agree if you're not bothered by wires or complexity a pair of active noise cancelling canalphones with Comply tips will outperform Hush by a

I've dated several women that I've met on OKC for various lengths of time and they all agreed that for the most part OKC was a good experience. I could see how people without a thick skin could be turned off by the spam, but that

Ok fair point I shouldn't have been so glib as puet is pretty horrible from a web design standpoint. It's a website for the demoscene, where people do stuff like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wqu_IpkOYBg in

I like this, it's neat art. However I must agree that I'm unmoved, I invite anyone who thinks this is particularly clever to visit www.pouet.net for a bit of re-calibration. It's all relative.

In a game where sound is the only way to see you save a lot of time on making textures. : P Looks fun.

I think this is "possible" but unlikely to work well anytime in the near future. There are some really big problems that need to be addressed for it to work properly. To do this convincingly and effectively the glasses would need to incorpo

Virtual objects occluding real objects is in fact nearly impossible. The way you're thinking about it with the extra LCD layer isn't actually a viable solution for this sort of display (or any sort of display my mind can come up with right

I think the approach that Valve takes to this in DotA 2 is pretty phenomenal. If you get reported you are put into a 'low priority' pool, since the people who play in this pool are generally there for a reason it makes a very effective puni

The parts used to build this total $330 vs. the $70 for the LEAP and it seems that this is less accurate and responsive. I'd get behind this if it was purely an open source effort to bring this to people who can't get their hands on a LEAP.
