I'm really a fan of the rising trend to not attack billionaires just because they're not billionares.

What a weird article beyond repair. mcdoof does not hold communitys together, people form communities and designate places to meet on their own and they do that totally without any mcdoof in the vicinity. Just imagine a short moment a world

why is microsoft access called microsoft access? because only microsoft has access to it.

RMS is a true Hero, he gives his life to fight for the basic human right for free computing. RMS is a modern historical figure on par with Jesus. His weird opinions on other topics and clumsy social behaviour do not matter a bit in comparis

Because it's not a ML experiment, but a Max/Msp sketch which semi-randomly fires off carefully (by a human) prepared samples.

Regardless of the partnering - why would you ever put in your passwords into a public website like this?

Yes, goto Paris, goto Louvre, watch all the old stuff, realise it could be done much better now with 3d printers and UNDO.

It's not a 'fetish' - it's 'History'. An old Stradivari Violin, 300 Years old, built by a near-genius-enginner, being played _Now_ is a much better experience than if they would use a 3d printed clone of it. It

This is a nonsensical experiment. The role of the old 'genius-stradivari' violin is to impress by its own history - not by its sound. Of course can the Stradivari be 3d scanned and be analysed to death and be rebuit as an 'ev

yes, that sounds plausible.

The remarkatble thing is less the compression of a 3:12 video with sound in 1MB, and more the c64 being able to decode it in realtime with a framerate > 10. I especially like the unique but still 64-flavoured compression artefacts of the

Neat! Like a Kaoss pad DIY sample 2d crossfader running on rpi3. This is 2 Parts, a high end computer that analyses (with ML and Neural magic!) some source waves and outputs blended samples that you can put on a 2d grid, and for these gener

Because this kind of processing needs to run fast, almost all resources and tutorials are in c/cpp, and security is not a concern.

In 32 bit float, about 50% of the possible values (no denormals) fall between -0.5 and 0.5 (~2 000 000 000), the space on each side between 0.5 and 1 adds only about 80 million new values.

Nah, i don't think that's it. Fear is a feeling, which is per default not any more or less connected to "i need to buy this thing" than any other feeling. So why should fear encourage spending money more than any other f

C++ is a meta language based on C. You can pick the features you want to use.

Stop dangling your rotten carrot! You can't impress me with these stale gimmicks. The choice of operating system is not a purely utalitarian, but also and mostly a social choice of morality and utopia. And the choice has been made alre

Nice viewpoint, but still - why couldn't they engage some artists to do some really beautiful stuff with this setup instead of nonstop-plastering their default imagery onto it. It's a missed opportunity to show off even bigger dic

Pedagogy may aswell be a form of art, as any humanity science, weak on the proven side, big on individual impact. If your classes are fun and engaging, i would say it's good teaching. If it's a monotone snoozefest, rather not so,

It's not what you teach, it's how you teach - you can make any topic for any age exciting and fun as a teacher.

Yes and no, it's true that there is a lot of cruft in setting up a portable write-compile-debug cycle for C with often not very helpful error messages. On the other hand you could just use an online compiler in a browser. And demonstra

Python itself is already too much abstraction. Everyone interested in programming should learn the basics all the other stuff is built out of: Hardware, binary, assembly, C That doesn't mean to get full on embedded hacking, it means to

Google gives nothing. From your sentence i can only deduce that you don't believe in scientific results and instead in some other 'erratically acting' null-deity. But that can't be the case, since we can build airplanes

Why would you think that? Without any system there wouldn't be any science.

by iammyIP 9y ago
The underlying system is hopefully much better designed, so this will never occur.
