I'm talking about having the self-discipline to work out, which is the same self-discipline required for fasting. If you manage to work out, you can manage to not eat. All I hear is a bunch of excuses and trying to create lab drugs to

They are not living in space, they are temporary visitors on an unstable structure that requires constant resupply from Earth, absent of which they will all die and the structure falls back to Earth and is destroyed. Even with indefinite re

Rayman Origins and Legends from Ubisoft have loading screens where you can move around, sometimes even catch a powerup.

Space travel isn't currently possible. It ever becoming possible is pure speculation on your part. No man has ever left the Earth and set up shop elsewhere and lived. None. Zilch. It's science fiction.

You're thinking in terms of space, now consider the same concept in the dimension of time. Branch misprediction is a permanent loss. You will never get those nanoseconds back.

Since purple-red contains no green, yellow is orthogonal to your scale.

I take it there are languages that are locked to a particular GC, and this is a point of pain and friction? A good garbage collected language would make automated memory management both optional and modular. I recall D having a GC that can

Human language is precise. Equal parts green and blue is the technical definition of cyan. Why are you imposing an erroneously calibrated device upon the whole of human language? Cyan doesn't stop being cyan just because your monitor i

Computer programming is full of probabilistic edge cases with ridiculous costs that are amortized over normal use. Most optimization, encoding, and compression is based on statistics. If your use case requires a minimum bound, use another a

Open up any digital drawing program. Adjust the color. Max out green and blue. That's cyan. Equal parts both.

Cyan is literally an even mix of blue and green.

I simply cannot take seriously anyone who exclaims that monster death animations are a minor part of Doom. It's literally a game about slaying demons. Gameplay consists almost entirely of explosions and gore, killing monsters IS THE GA

Or a passage from the holy Bible. The wisdom of the wise men will perish. Isaiah 29:14 For it is written: "I will make the wisdom of the wise men perish, and the intelligence of the intellectuals I will reject." 1. Corinthians 1:1

Then why do monsters become blurry smudgy messes when shot? That looks like a video compression artifact of a neural network attempting to replicate low-structure image (source material contains guts exploding, very un-structured visual).

Silver is antimicrobial. Gold is highly conductive. If we had these materials in absurd excess, we could literally build hospitals from silver and the electric grid from gold, and it would be great for our civilization.

My dad let me gamble my allowance against himself in poker. Lost it all, obviously. Was quite heartbroken he wouldn't give it back, but I sure learned a lesson :)

Imagine how much code is being rewritten all the time for a variety of reasons. Code is live and must be maintained. Adding one more reason isn't much of a stretch.
