I am not an expert in anything, but I am working on it. When I try to focus on studying one discipline consistently for a period of time, I get distracted (and excited!) when I notice patterns that could inform other disciplines. While it i

I think your point concerns the 'value' and not so much the 'definition'. As for 'concept', I think that's just the wrong word here. Great contribution to the conversation if it were worded with the specif

It's fine. I've done this just with Windows on a 2014 macbook with the nvidia (I think m950) graphics card. Developing VR involves low framerate experiences no matter what you use. I have a PC as well, but I would not hesitate to

My grandparents entered the antique business in their retirement. They did well for themselves and passed away in the same year, about 5 years ago. My family is faced with just forgetting about all the energy they have spent trying to get m

This wasn't my comment but it may as well have been. This describes my material posessions exactly, except for no garage. I'm 32 and live in a one room warehouse art studio with a shared bathroom. I can't find reason to get a

Note that they may just appear that way because you don't get the joke or don't find it funny. Sounds like sneering to me, but maybe I just don't find it funny. For dummies: Using the same expression in different contexts, ev

I haven't seen it but even if it's as despicable as I imagine or worse, it's covered under the concept of the first amendment. I support the first amendment as a virtue of integrity. If you're an American who didn't

I also agree with all of these things. I think you're right about 'purely artistic creativity'. In addition, I think it's a distraction, a bit misleading. Let's say the boxes are a warehouse of boxes stacked in perf

I agree, but I would call that loose thinking, not out-of-the-box thinking. If you don't know where the the box walls are, it's a crap shoot finding the other side.

Sharp observation. See my comment above. This general takeaway makes fine sense when you calculate the scope of the lifestyle differences. Here's my loose take: Music is a unique beast; especially these days. It remains the most scient

Speak for yourself haha. This is a matter of trajectory. As you get older, you'll follow the trajectory you maintain. I exercise creativity more than fitness and I feel incredible hahahaha. Here's the key: Balance practice with th

I have heard these too and that is a misrepresentation of his statements. He does not say Chavez is great. He makes specific and nuanced arguments about value exemplified in some things Chavez did. This probably didn't need saying, but

Oof. Yes please. In a just world, this would be the direction this project is heading in.

"Although Rorty’s polemical tone in his books and articles might suggest that he had a robust temperament, he was the opposite: gentle, shy, withdrawn, and sensitive." His tone actually comes off as the latter to me. His work is i

I am not super familiar with Scott McCloud so sorry for that, but I'm very admirable of comics from a distance. I think it's worth mentioning I think this might be a little outdated of a definition because philosophy and art is ag

As a programmer in training who has both Clean Code and Code Complete in a queue on the edge of my desk, I'm following this thread to decide which goes first, or if they both get sold in mint condition.

I second this. Ubuntu default config probably isn't perfect for anybody, but nothing is in the way, which I consider a major benefit. If I need automatic configuration, none of these ideas will move faster than a decent Bash script. So

Good point. I've only spent a limited amount of time in startup space but it seems this intention is usually considered more as a possible path rather than an intention. It's a common accusation but seems outlandish and unnecessar

Somehow, the commenters actually complain about the interviewer interrupting, as if his questions were being answered in seriousness to begin with. The energy in this interview is not of science and innovation. It is a hormonal rollercoaste
