Exactly. I have some depression (or maybe just standard human psychology that I have somehow failed to cope with) that will flare up horribly if I'm not eating well, exercising properly, getting enough sun, spending enough time not wor

Depth camera isn't visible light, but will likely also be blocked by smoke.

Turns out most people are dumb and self-absorbed.

This just adds a depth camera to the phone and uses it and the visible light camera to map the space and orient the device. If a human is disoriented in a no-visibility situation due to smoke, the cameras will not likely be able to orient

Indeed, had to look at the author after the poor emotionally charged writing made his biases immediately clear.

Why does the back-end guy need to ... what? What kind of spaghetti does this guy and his colleagues build where there is such strong back-end and front-end interdependency that the server-side code cares what the front-end is doing for DOM

I don't disagree much with what you're saying here. Mostly only that I don't think that the effects of say meth are in "full swing". I agree that most drugs that are currently criminalized should probably not be. I

Hmm... addiction makes it so you can't really trust people's decisions surrounding their own health and having lots of addicts looking to get their next fix at any cost means lots of petty crimes. Disease and crime are hugely dama

No, it's because there's usually an emergency call button of some kind (so the towers can route your call based on location, iirc), you're not actually entering the sequence "911". No touchtone phone I've seen

Exactly, in 2014, Github has tons of clones. Lots more sites have reduced visual clutter nice user flows and allow for social interaction. Both in VCS and in general, what Github is doing is not innovative. In that context, yeah this seems

The media-as-a-product model is breaking down for games the way it has or will for everything else (journalism, music, movies) because in a competitive market, marginal price trends toward marginal cost, and the marginal cost of digital is

But for elementary school age me growing up with my poor single mom, when I could string rebates and sales together to build a computer inside $5 case with similar deals on components, it's crazy magic. Thank you lazy people, for makin

Do they produce these from the source audio before they're listened to though?

Thank you. Its astounding how much of this thread does not seem to be catching this. My project currently depends on libraries which in turn have dependencies on mutually exclusive versions of jQuery, so we conditionally load a whole second

I had other reasons to quit the job where they started bringing their dog in, but wouldn't have needed any. The idea of having these huge animals that can't communicate what they want and try to assess relative position in their i

Early foraging societies maybe? (Before agriculture or systemized bartering, let alone economic specialization or capitalism.)

Apples to oranges. An iDevice is not at all in the same kind of market as a Sony Camcorder or PC Laptops. The magic here is that Apple only builds devices that don't have to compete in a commoditized market where everything is the same

Not sure, more likely somebody got a zip file full of images from the lawyer(s) and decided to put those up exactly as provided.

Seconded. Do you just go to all the local businesses with craptastic sites, offer to bill them introductory rates then hope network effects happen?

by lotyrin 13y ago
Yeah, but if you have a test suite you add Python 3 and silence the existing failures. Now you can (at least partially) avoid writing new code that wouldn't work on 3, as well as gain the option of refactoring things to resolve compati

So... I'm supposed to move to another city, maybe even state, in order to place competitive pressure on my ISP? Of course you mentioned the monopolistic ISP situation that creates that problem, but that seems to just be handwaving; I d

I suppose you could move your entire controller server-side and share a cache for the complete composed JSON documents such that you do a single HTML page request followed by many cached JSON requests afterward one for each "page"

Well, a universe with constants that make non-local/relativistic effects common doesn't seem like it would be very good at hosting intelligent observers.
