   There is a Github somewhere that recorded EEG of people listening to simple piano melodies, I'll see if I can find it. Edit: I found some things! 1. A paper: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC554101

   Huh... weird, maybe I read into things. I also read the word "collaborative" somewhere. Oh! I see, I read "gatherhunterer" his comment as the top comment. I meant to reply to him, I simply clicked "reply" on th

   Note: there's no client-server architecture needed with things such as Figma since it can be done P2P. I'm just past the beginning stages of it. You can use a mix of WebRTC/WebTorrent's infrastructure to get a serverless

   Your comment reminds me of the fisherman and the business man: > There was once a businessman who was sitting by the beach in a small Brazilian village. As he sat, he saw a Brazilian fisherman rowing a small boat towards the shore having

   Oh! If you have any recommendations, I’d be interested :)

   I didn’t read the article, but I would advice against the idea that I can read a good chunk of your memory with Meltdown and Spectre via a JS ad. I am fuzzy on the details, but I do think it’s possible. Meltdown is out of order execution de

   I have no clue how this is having 52 votes and no comments on it. How am I supposed to know this is a good book? I'll highlight the goals of this book as it explains more about the title. > We place an emphasis on active learning an

    Probably obvious question, but needs to be asked: do you have any tips? I'd love a 30 hour work week. 20 would be too little for me, or so I'd like to believe.

    I'm currently full-time on my side project as I'm done with graduating, tired from searching for the right job (it has been months) and I just need to do some actual coding, to get it out my system or something. It is a code vacat

    Huh, that's quite the contrary to my Mac Mini 2012 experience. My Raspberry Pi wasn't here yet and I wanted a web server. Yea, Wifi didn't immediately work, but with some Googling you figure out how to find the right driver a

    Since there are few comments let me start off with perhaps an unusual anecdote. I have seen hypoxia (as in insufficient oxygen) with people who do the Wim Hof Method (a breathing technique to keep you from freezing to death). It’s very disc

    I always go to Web Archive to get a guestimate. It also helps because you can see how an article evolved.

    When it comes to theoretical CS, I use Shai Simonson his course on the theory of computation [1]. I passed my actual university course by not going to the lectures. Not even once! All the same material was covered in Shai his video lectures

    This seems to be for Windows only as I tried to do it with PowerPoint for Mac and I couldn't seem to find the option.

    That's a truly heart warming story to hear! I think you just upped my motivation even higher to be in IT.

    I'm not old enough to have known Hypercard, though my thesis very adjacently touches on it (kind of, not really, but it talks about Douglas Engelbart and Ted Nelson and hyperlinked text and how it devolved -- according to Nelson -- to

    This is a bit of an odd answer, even in a question that expects odd answers. That is because it sounds so normal, yet I have Googled for it and almost no one advocates for it. They do maybe advocate for it in terms of design, but I mean i

    Apologies for the long comment, succinct writing is tough. I have a different opinion, but do understand your scepticism. If people would've told me this before "just type in vimtutor and 30 min. and boom you're ready" I

    The following has been repeated quite a lot on HN, but for people who are new to vim or new to reading HN it bears repeating. 1. Go to your terminal. 2. Type in vimtutor. 3. Spend half an hour. 4. Congratulations! You are now able to surviv

    Related to this, I wish someone had a simple course on this for people who don’t know that much about (automated) proofs. I looked it up on HN [1], but couldn’t find any. [1] https://hn.algolia.com/?q=proof+assistant
