I started using Jupyter + Python recently, can't say enough good things about the project. Sometimes you want to present data, graphics and have a bit of interactivity. The notebooks make it easy to share your code/data/graph

Anyone else having issues with playing in FireFox? Seems like a really cool project, looks like I might have to install it instead of using it in browser ... a bit disappointed :(

I have come to a conclusion: There are deductive style thinkers and there are inductive type thinkers. The deductive works from the abstract theory towards a proof of his reasoning. The inductive works from facts, and backwards to a theory

I've had the exact same experience, but the other side of the coin was getting bullied and beat up because I was more interested in electronics and programming my Vic-20 then other 'conventional' interests for young boys (and

This is the 2nd 'French' horror story I've heard. An ex-colleague (ex-pat french man) told me an almost exact same story (different software: numerical simulations). Of course bad software happens all over the globe (Looking

We were shipping the games on 3 different consoles, shipping on the original XBOX with it's superb integration to Visual Studio was such a breath of fresh air, and allowed you to debug directly and step through your code on the console

I really like this guy's tenacity and clever use of excel. But from my experience you can use excel files as an ODBC database source (Windows). https://stackoverflow.com/questions/15844633/using-excel-as-...

Codewarrior => worse IDE I've ever had to use. You literally want to break something/someone once you've used it for any extended period of time (PS2 Game console developement).

FB is not a problem. Handing over information blindly to an entity which centralizes and consolidates it's 'power' over you is. FB can only do as much as we 'feed' it. Stop feeding it. FB is simply doing what inevit

Of course, nothing is going to change since everyone has known this for years, and still use FB. In the upcoming weeks users will be more 'careful' but since they have 'nothing to hide' it's 'Okay' to use

Never underestimate the power of unions. They can make or break a technology. Automated driver less subway cars create a precedent which can make unions feel threatened. Of course the reality of it is more complicated, but they are a powerf

Why are you transitioning? If you feel like you want to challenge yourself and grow within this new position, fine. However, if you drank the 'too-old-to-code-coolaid-sv-bs' well I'm sorry to hear that.

As a man I have no equivalent experience, so it's very difficult to judge. However, being in a mostly male environment the probabilities of encountering a 'dick' are very good. Should all 'dicks' be sent to the gula

I know this author means well, but even for a game dev 'veteran' like myself, all this reading seems quite daunting. Can't imagine what a junior aspiring game dev thinks.

My question is: what is the value of a Bitcoin? It looks to me like a great way to transfer currency and facilitate exchange of goods, but not much more than that. So 'investing' in this digital currency itself does not make much
