Personally I think civilizations tend to undergo a singularity or destroy themselves eventually and the exceptions to those two cases are rare enough that communication becomes exceptionally rare.

Camera latency + processing latency + display latency = vomit machine. Not saying it's impossible just that it's a bit harder than slapping a camera on the Rift.

I like the book's example of simple frag with the beer. So the setup is that you and your time travelling buddy are watching the big Sportsball match on TV in both of your relative presents. You want a beer so you go to the fridge and

Because over time the replication of cells becomes imperfect, I'm not going to try and explain it because I don't feel like I truly understand it but that's the essential bit, after around the age of 35-40 your cells stop rep

Your body already does this though. Cells die and are replaced all the time, even neurons. You aren't you from seven years ago nor 14 years ago and you're still barely you from last year. I'm not really sure why this argume

I don't think there's any real difference between biofuel and regular fuels except that biofuels might (don't quote me here) be a bit less energy dense which is just an engineering problem. The big problem with biofuel is t

I never said a thing about not taking risks or having fun but those are my choices. I'd rather not be forced to die from some sort of disease, or just old age completely outside of my control.

because apparently parts of america are an insane sellers market where you can command 100k+ fresh out of school. If you don't want to deal with these questions there's ten more jobs down the street that won't ask you any har

Yeah, K-maps were part of the circuit design course we had to take for our undergrad CS degree.

Are you serious? I'd feel like a fucking idiot walking out of university with a brand new degree and demanding 100k off the bat. I guess the market is different outside SV though right?

Scary, this is exactly the reason I stay away from gummy vitamins and anything that tries to make it anything less like medicine.

I'm not even American and I feel a bit patriotic about that shot of the American flag rising up through the condensation and falling ice.

Gene Crantz is another certified badass flight controller, I highly recommend his book "Failure is not an Option" which is all about his time in the American space program (which stretches from Mercury all the way to the Space Shu

Yes, because sage isn't a new function it's one that was taken from 2chan and like the post says sage never was and never will be a downvote. It's just a way to reply without bumping the thread.

I sympathize with you. I learned allman style first because that's what my java programming book used. When I started learning C, which is pretty K&R dominated, I found it really hard but got used to it and now when I go back and l

That's because in most cases if you build a prototype that works your boss/client doesn't want you to waste time making a better version, they just want the one that works now and doesn't require a hundred more (billable

Upside down funnel looks like an old timey megaphone. Perhaps that's the analogy here, if you have time to shout your message you might as well shout it to a lot of people.

I'd actually be incredibly surprised if they folded their hardware division. Sure it's not great now (except the 3DS is still doing good by every other metric other than compared to the DS ie: the best selling handheld in history)

I think I spend too much time planning and not enough time just getting shit done. It's one of the things that I feel like I have to work on this year.

My biggest problem was always trying to hold a book open with one hand. This was a problem because my hands are large and trying to read a paperback with both hands was sub-optimal, not to mention reading in the bath or whilst lounging.

If a site did this I'd just leave tbh. I turn everything off and opt into advertising on sites I find I enjoy (if it turns out those sites had bad ads I just turn them off again).
