My [alarm] clock displays unix time and a count down in seconds. After a few years I've only partially got used to it. The half alseep version of me does appericate the count down a lot. I just remembered I should experiment counting t

I think he means private messages but there is one tip I can give you that adds much to the experience: Stay logged in and use IRC like email exchanges on slow channels and in private conversations. IRC ofc does real time chat but the best

Same here, if the newfangled hipster stuff doesn't have an irc channel it doesn't have enough of those really old people who again and again watched their stuff crumble in their hands for reasons they were sure were not going to h

I believe the problem is the lack of protocols implemented in browsers. It's needlessly fragile to have a single route to the data. "Web pages only last about 100 days on average"[1] http was nice, we gave it a good spin, it

The performance jump blows the mind. If AI is going to evolve like that our expectations will be rather silly compared to reality. Its kinda like [collectively] we haven't a clue what we are doing.

Every time roads or cars got improved people used the extra time to live further from work. Its oddly similar to the way every time computers and networks got faster we used it to make development easier. Perhaps if we design a crappy car (

It wont happen overnight (if at all). For hardware we are already there. We use a single cpu or video card that just works and cant be matched by combining a bunch of smaller components. We do have instances trying to combine the 2. We also

Eventually everything will be sealed in lego like blocks. We will then stop calling software technology.

Normally 25% but since there are 2 answers with 25% this cant be correct. There is only one answer with 50% but if that is the correct one there would be only 25% chance. Therefore it must be C) 60%

I find it somewhat of a hopeless discussion. One can explore any angle of science and reach a point where it looks insane and one can indoctrinate himself or train himself beyond that point. At that point you don't know anymore if you

I joked that taking my money without explanation made for a fascinating legal spectacle. Its not that I care about the 400 euro, I'm honestly interested in their explanation in court. How an agreed exchange can be canceled by one party

That's just one argument. The flat-earth whatevertocallit has an answer for everything. This is what makes it so hilarious. For example: If you are, from a truly objective perspective, firmly stuck with the idea that the earth must be

I use to ask people what the right software was for a task. (I still do at times) The answers explained what people liked about the software they used but an objective A vs B was rare and it didn't do justice to the rest of the set. Ou

I would like to see some qr code pointing at an ever expanding list of data. I imagine a game where every 3 months 1% tax is added that can be waved if some new data set is exposed to the customer. Its terrible how disconnected we are from

Here in NL the stores often display the price per kg. I don't think there is a law but dutch people are just cheap, we feel like we get something extra for free out of it. (joking) At least one supermarket forbids taking pictures tho.

I wrote and ran something like this but the sweet spot was 20 min not 10. The purpose for me was to discover how many 20 min chunks of time were actually productive. The efficiency of planned tasks declines when you assign more hours to it.

The tech giant is its own judge and jury. IMHO to be complete the law should require web widget providers to serve what it says on the tin. AND NOTHING ELSE If it is a button so that users can bookmark articles on the facebook website then

Exactly! This is the interesting question to ask! And you should expect this to take a much less straight forwards form than outright malicious intend. Machine learning stuff, to us mere mortals, is a black box that seems to output that wha

I did manage to move the not so nice thoughts to the end of the train. Now if I could just learn to stop writing/talking/thinking(?) before we get there the world would be a happier place.

I get what the article is getting at, its lovely for what it is trying to do. my take: Cloths are what people you meet look at. They create a mood in the spectator and leave an impression of who you are. First you have to figure out who you

In the 90's I kept arguing [to deaf ears] how anonymity is useful to a limited extend. My idea was that we can have real identities but we can anonymize credentials too. You can continue to call yourself Donald Duck and still be a lect
