Valve were looking at heart rate sensing as an additional input to their Director AI system (that adapts the entire game experience in Left 4 Dead and its sequel based on skill and other factors).

There's something to say for ubiquity and convenience. People would rather load a 50MB Animated GIF than watch a 10MB video of the same thing in higher res.

Do you have any evidence of this? I would be shocked if food labeling laws let this happen without explicitly calling it some variant of "flavoured milk".

As an Australian, I've never heard a swimsuit referred to as a "bailey". "Bathers" perhaps...

I think it's very difficult to underestimate just how much good will Google have lost recently, and I suspect it's almost entirely due to shutting down Google Reader. While it's not the end of the world, there has been a marked shift in t

From the Go docs: "GOMAXPROCS sets the maximum number of CPUs that can be executing simultaneously and returns the previous setting" You are setting this to 8 on a dual-core system. What happens when you set it to 2?

Sorry I misinterpreted. When Go was introduced a lot of people got caught up in the declaration order being opposite to C-style languages and I assumed you had too. Nevertheless, it's similar to Algol's bracket syntax, except in Algol the t

You need a little more than that, unfortunately. A quick example: the standard library `flag` package lets you parse command line arguments, and returns either pointers or values. You need to know which is which. It's easy, for example, t

I do not watch American Football. I understand the overall rules of the game, and I don't particularly enjoy it. However, I have not immersed myself in the game enough to be able to understand what is a good play and what is a great play. I

This is much like how I felt getting my PhD a couple of years ago, with a bit of imposter syndrome thrown in. Even though I know objectively the thing must be ok (as I passed examination, and I chose tough examiners), I still feel vaguely

I meant no disrespect to Jekyll itself, and you're right, the first commit https://github.com/mojombo/jekyll/commit/d189e05d236769c1e55... is from October 2008 (or "5 years ago" in Github speak)
