I came across code in a legacy web application one day, on a page that was probably the most used part of the application that was really nothing more than sleep(1000); I went through the version control history and found that is was a pre

are there design considerations for 3d printing in low gravity? It seems like not being able to assume gravity would be a significant hurdle.

A few years ago I wrote a genetic algorithm to solve a travelling salesman problem - it was a ton of fun - I need to port it to JS one day. Ive also thought about making an algorithm that would breed JS programs to solve basic tasks - sort

so if I am reading this right this is a potential competitor to patreon? Interesting concept. Let me pay some money that gets split between the sites I actually visit and get out of seeing ads - I wonder how many users of adblock today wou

i've had the same thought, but I dont think theres anything wrong with the fact that patterns are only noticeable in a certain visualization. A pattern in a decimal number wouldn't be discernible in another base for instance. It

I really love my intellij, I dont know how I went for so long without it; my only complaint is creating new projects - why does creating a new node.js project have to be so difficult? Why is express the only template?

Just as a matter of style I would put a comment like //dont do this or //bad practice in the negative examples, so that it stands out better.

I don't think the issue is that customers don't like competition, its the fact that they are being hostile towards the ones trying to give them money, restricting consumer choice and forcing a sub-par solution that is not as conve

Im unclear about the difference - how is turning off support for NFC (and with it apple pay and google wallet) not rejecting it?

Looking back at what I wrote I can understand your reaction - im wasnt trying to propose a new solution that someone hadn't considered. It was more a question of why couldn't it be that, which you answered quite well, thank you.

is it possible that dark matter is regular matter, just so diffuse that we don't notice/see it? could it be hydrogen atoms just floating in empty space, at such low densities we would never notice but in the grand scheme of things

I want to start off by saying I dont actually know the answer to your question - but I believe it is because gravity is weird all the way around. It is basically imperceptible at the micro level but is dominant at the macro. Its by far we

if you search for vert.x on HN you see a ton of comments and activity about it 2-3 years ago but it seems to be largely ignored in the last year or so. It seems it has lost whatever popularity it once had - do you think thats a fair assess

node is tied to v8 correct? if so, why? are there technical reasons that node cannot be made to work on spidermonkey or rhino, or is it that v8 has supplied underlying tech that node depends on and the same would have to be done in the othe

Ive toyed with the idea in the past to create a custom parser for an alternative sql syntax - although I doubt I have enough knowledge to do so. Not necessarily revolutionary, mostly just a shuffling of normal sql syntax to make it more un

Has apple released a shellshock bash fix yet? A little googling doesn't show one, just a bunch of hand waving saying most users aren't affected.

> It’s not about the money. It’s about my sanity. This does make the most sense, in looking at everything hes said in the past. Sounds like MS had the right offer at the right time.

I look forward to a post from MS about their plans. I still believe that with a proper modding API minecraft could quadruple its current impact.

I think about this often actually. It really could be what second life and lots of other platforms really wanted to be. I think if and when the modding api that they have been promising ever comes out it really could be the metaverse, or a

as someone who is more developer than ops, I feel like the docker stuff is still changing fast and that the way you would use docker today will be very different a year from now; but that containers seem to be the way of the future - if I h

I believe it was eventually understood that the "dummy" wasn't a complete control, it was just there to prove whether or not the hypothesized mechanism of the thrust was actually responsible or not (and that it ruled out that
