A lot of HN dwellers with high HN achievement points are getting a little sensitive here.

I think I've seen this point repeated in many other places. Priority applies to only one thing at a time.

Only level 12 by November 20th? The desire to play must not have been that strong. He already got side tracked with something that isn't getting him any more loot.

I question the significance of reports like this one. It usually appears to be a claim by a certain vendor that popularity translates directly into usage, but I think that is rarely the case.

The URL should have little to no effect in the grand scheme of things. Several factors go into their page ranking algorithm, and it is constantly changing. The content the page is far more important. You might want to ensure the site is usa

I wasn't aware that avoiding death was the main impetus for a standing desk. I thought staying mostly awake for the entire work day was a primary motivator.

Why does it take so much effort to use a garbage collected runtime efficiently? Wasn't the purpose of a GC in the first place to make things easier for the developer?

Getting a little tired of reading these rants. People are building "applications" that just happen to run in the web browser, for convenience. They aren't building repositories for static information.

Drugs don't increase "skill," though. And on the contrary, if everyone was doping I think the event might actually be more interesting to watch since the average fitness of the players would be increased.

I see and hear "autistic" used as a slur now, too.

However, depending on how flexibly you can program it, it may not be quite as useful.

Changing my habits is hard, can you please prescribe me some medication instead?

Why are _kernel_ issues excusable but UI issues are not? I think you have that backwards.

Harvey Lubin, why did you have to be THAT Apple fanboy and ruin the constructiveness of any comments on this blog post?

I think you completely missed the point. Using your own analogies of teachers, this would sort of be like a local government letting all the teachers know that they will be teaching kids without pay for the next 3 months. If this ever happe

I don't understand the % either. They state it is graph of _throughput_, with higher percentages from baseline being less throughput? If I hadn't read the backwards description I would've concluded that their DB is really slo

Two lines out of the entire article mention those. I would not exactly call that "plenty of non-graphics examples". There are many more CPU intensive processes besides just those that result in real technical challenges, as well.

by nosideeffects 11y ago
I agree. It uses the term "tech" in the article and fails to mention everything that isn't graphics related. Even if you decide as a game maker to forgo 3D for whatever reason, you still have REAL technical limitations when i

Reading a whole lot into fabricated memories, I imagine the new entities might have an entirely new set of memories of things that never happened.

Why did they choose the 98th percentile, specifically? Why not 99th and friends?

Anytime I see "Not needed" instead of "No" in a feature comparison chart, I am inclined to just stop reading.

Maybe a lot of people are interested in the science of ego-stroking.

That is a sweeping generalization about security habits of non-users of Lastpass. My point is that the security-consciousness does not necessarily go hand in hand with using a password management system. If someone gets into your single poi

I thought it only showed this information if you had recently, successfully logged in to your account on that computer?

Couldn't you also, just as fairly, interpret the use of any "single password to lock up all my other passwords" somehow less security-conscious?

I thought he was calling for exactly the opposite? A generalization that applies between contexts would require formal definition, no?

Google is in a transition to optimize for your account security over the convenience of saving 500ms every week or so by having a single page. For the business "this is wasting my time" complaint I just read a whole lot of: you&#x
