I thought this was going to be about efficient overflow checking at a USER level. I want to be able to write efficient code something like bool SafeAddInts(int a, int b, int* out) { if (willOverFlowAdd(a,b)) { return fal

Is there some interface that makes the timeline usable? Maybe all these features exist and I just don't know where they are or how to use them but basically I find facebook impossible to find anything but the last 3-10 days of stuff. I

Use a bank that doesn't have tellers? You don't stand at First Republic Bank. The bankers have desks. You sit down with them for any transaction you need personal help with. Sorry if that sounds like an ad for my bank but so far,

I'm old but at my uni I went to the head of the computer dept and said "I know this stuff can I skip these classes?". He said "Yes, no problem. If you want credit for them you're free to take the tests". I gues

My father built our 20x30ft family room add on. He built it to be sound proof enough that he could practice his drumming and not annoy the neighbors. I don't think he'd be able to do that in most apartments

How about this solution: (yes, it's only 5% serious) From every publically available internet do something that appears malicious until cloudflare's servers annoy everyone. At that point they'll be forced to find a new soluti

If plastic surgery works it would seem fashion (which is things) would also work. Feeling like you look great is a good feeling, at least for me. And getting compliments on my look feels great too. Whether or not that equates to more or les

Not unless they add cameras looking at your lips and eyes. Just being able to see a body with a head in VR is not the same as sitting next to my dad who's facial expression I can see.

People do all kinds of things under peer pressure and coercion they wouldn't do otherwise There's plenty of stories of tptb totally overstepping the bounds of peer pressure and coercion. I'd even argue that most people will c

Pewdiepie is an exception. Kind of like Conan's Clueless Gamer segment. But he just that, he's an exception. You can't take Pewdiepie and extrapolate to all streamers. Adding that to my suggestion for splitting revenue, maybe

You're free to play some other game and be compensated. I suspect though that most streamers would lose their audiences very quickly if they weren't streaming the top 30 games. People tune in for Fallout, Uncharted, Last of Us, GT

I come from games. It seems like advertising is the only way to effectively "get the word out" about my new game. I'm not seeing how that's useless. I also don't see the conflict of interest. If I make a bad game an

You do this work for free and you'll make it up in extra PR. Sounds like the typical artist/designer/photographer deal.

I have a strong feeling much of that is corruption and/or over charging. I have no proof but AFAICT Singapore and Tokyo have no trouble building new lines quickly and for far less money and I suspect they both do a better job.

It's a fair comparison and one I make often. Example: My friends and I could take public transport 10 miles. It might cost $5 per person. For four people that's $20. $20 might pay for a cab for all four of us. Same with planes. I

Have you calculated how much you're actually spending per day? I roughly calculated my expenses once. $32k car $8k tax/license + loan interest up to point I paid it off = $50k $200 gas a month for 6 years = $14400 $4k renew servic

Share the revenue? Don't know what the correct split is. As a game creator who spends 2+ years per game on a team of 20 (so 40 man years) and then some one spends 4 to 80 hours recording themselves playing and then editing I'd ten

I'd really like to know what the true costs are. Are Hong Kong, Seoul, Tokyo, Singapore all massively subsidizing their mass transit? Do they have enough riders that they're profitable? Are they more or less efficient in how the m

Because it's large? I'm all for public transportation and LA used to have the best in the world 80 years ago. But, a large city as large as LA is never really going to be completely walkable unless everyone always moves close to t
