I'd suggest you make it easier for people to read the specifications. The html is minified into a single line, making it impractical to read the source straight out of github.

That's easy if 'sitting on your ass' amounts to grazing on facebook, watching idle entertainment or playing games. For the rest of us who work on a computer at a job and/or then again at home, that's a bit impractical at best and not the le

Haven't played yet, but I'm in love with the art style. Congrats.

It's funny how changing search engines has become a foreign thought--that'd be like telling the average american to switch out of Coke. In fact I'll make a point to do that right now--to Bing I mean, not a fan of soft drinks. Let's see what

I'm surprised NASA would take the time to make such a statement, that anyone would take this end of the world thing seriously. But then I guess many people actually believe in God, and there isn't much difference.

I was initially led to think I wouldn't be allowed in, being only an enthusiast and reading "filmmakers only". Loved the design and guiding interface, can't wait for features like the outline and more parts of the workflow. Edit: The 'Learn

Very cool! This is something I was always looking for when I was studying Chinese--recommended texts to read, based on my ability, and with mouseover translations by word/sentence. Now that I'm about to get into German, I'll keep this on my

It's a compelling point, albeit in many ways very short-sighted. Though I really do believe we're headed to a full virtual reality. Why live life--the hard, cold future life as depicted in Matrix--when you can be a millionaire in the 20s on

This seems like a good point on the surface, but since it takes only one outlier to dominate the universe (by Bostrom's train of thought), then it would have happened anyway. It's the law of smart for one, dumb for all. Assuming most life f

You're missing the point that it takes only one sufficiently equipped human being to set the whole colonization in motion. Given appropriate technology, it doesn't require any concerted effort or grand scheme. Just a single match lights the

It's amazing how little we know--it might just be that an organic, living, genetically engineered being can sustain the pressure and vacuum of space (though how about propulsion?) and hostile planets, and consume raw resources out of soil a

The point is, well before folks who could feel "boredom" passed by us, their self-replicating probes would have landed here, many thousand, million or billion years prior. And they would have harassed our planet to depletion, since they are

I want to summarize and add some commentary to the article[1] posted by macu as a reply to another comment. It's amazingly interesting and well argued. In short, the author says first that any sufficiently advanced civilization will at one

p.s. I hadn't seen the mention on Telescope's page! Man, you're awesome.

Answering (1) for myself, I do everything Meteor in Coffeescript, and in fact I'm playing around with the idea of maintaining a Coffee-fork of Telescope, as I'm integrating it into my app.

I've been working with Telescope's code for just over a week, and Meteor since the beginning of the year, and I wanted to vow for what a pleasure it has been. The Meteor team is putting together something truly grand, and these guys in turn

On a broader perspective, this is the idea Aristotle has put forth.

Definitely, I have in mind something more like monthly. But in any case, over time, anyone checking my submissions would see my own posts dominating the track record, even if spaced over time. That's what drove me to ask.

It was a real joy working with your code, thanks! Pretty straightforward and I actually saw you using much the same patterns I do to guide my Meteor development--it was a breeze to get around and understand the logic within the 9 straight h

Not to mention books which are often stuffed with lots of filler rehashing points, to avoid being the below-hundred pages quick read it should have been.

I've been working on this roadmap idea for some months, but when I saw the Meteor devs' roadmap on Trello yesterday, I thought I oughta put a proof-of-concept up within a few hours' work, mostly a fork of the Telescope app, to validate my i

That seemed like a wonderful opportunity to set up a script that looked up thousands of bogus domain names (e.g. aaabbbcccddd.com) to spike them.

The point I find to ring the truest with me is that of a single life goal. If your startup is the love of your life, your ultimate passion and purpose on Earth, it gets very hard to find someone to share in on that passion. And taking someo

Why isn't there a plugin to Find in Files in the same way Ctrl-P works? Open the best match in buffer as results stream in.

Except when 'scientific research' is largely based on what an industry (e.g. dairy products) wants to sell you.
