See this video about some of the prominent people who were blocked: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E70tu5k5rdY . As biased as the video is, it's easy to see that many of these users were basically trolls.

Let's see the actual benchmarks though. I'm more interested in seeing if it beats the iPhone on benchmarks, since these app opening races have been done a million times, and Android devices have frequently won.

How? Nuclear tech is already much more developed than other renewables and it's incredibly efficient. The cost of solar is much higher than the cost of nuclear. Hydroelectric and wind are both lower, but they also require certain geogr

Being anti-nuclear is pretty much accepting the status quo though. Modern nuclear power is much, much more sustainable than coal, scales very well, and is very safe. If you believe in a quick solution for energy issues then you shouldn&#x27

Something similar happened to me a while back in Mono/C#. I think it was the order of assignments for an unused variable changed the results of the code. Something like: int x = 0; int y = 2; DoSomething(); // D

This is very cool and very much like what I want, but I can see how it's rudimentary. I think the only sustainable approach to these things is to build modular components and keep them separated into different modes/contexts. The

Interesting. Admittedly, I haven't ever used the iPad Pro/Apple Pencil. In my personal experience, it just never felt great using most touch screens. Most styluses feel too heavy and slip too much on glossy tablet screens so it fe

(Slightly off-topic) It's really sad to me that as of yet there is nothing to compete with paper and a pencil for math. I've used probably 10 different programs/websites, lots of stand-alone software, LaTeX, drawing programs

What's wrong with domain specific languages? SQL is a language for database manipulation, jq is a language for querying JSON, CSS is a language for styling documents, etc.

I think it fits better for Scheme or Forth. I would not describe Go as simple at all relative to those languages.

4chan has been popular for leaks/reverse engineering because of its anonymity and the fact that it's seen as (whether or not this is true, and I would wager that it isn't) as a "hacker haven". For example, a guy on

Totally agree. Looking at this car, I commend Tesla for going through with an insane idea like this, but personally I can't imagine having to deal with this every time I leave the house.

by nv-vn 9y ago
I think this is a really interesting move from Tesla and it is making a good commentary on what the automotive industry has become. There's a lot of clutter in the modern car's UI, and I do agree that it could be slimmed down a lo

>His viewpoint isn't okay And yet you call upon him to act like an adult. Anyways, I'd love to hear what defines a viewpoint as okay. Is it just the fact that it agrees with your viewpoint? I imagine you are some kind of author

I think people might agree with you more if you wrote this in a tone that is even slightly condescending. If your approach to responding to people who disagree with you is trying to shame them for their behavior and shut them out then nobod

There's many things I see wrong with this argument/sentiment in general and I don't really know how to even address most of it. Apart from what are mostly just biased judgements used to drive forward the narrative, there are

This question has already been answered a bazillion times. - Longer downloads (especially with updates) -> Discord update times are ridiculous, I can't imagine dealing with that for every app - Slower to launch - Can't keep the

No. The cost just wasn't monetary. If I understand correctly, Airbus gets the CSeries and Bombardier no longer has to make a profit out of their debts. So basically Airbus paid for CSeries by taking on CSeries' debts. Also, Bombar

Not sure of a good place to ask this but I've been wondering for a few years, so I'll try again in this thread. Does anyone know where to purchase a Symbolics machine in 2017? Is anyone here looking to sell their LispM?

Well, mirtazapine isn't scheduled in the US so you can probably get some precursors with relative ease. You can find the synthesis info online [1] and at least some of the chemicals used in the synthesis are available online [2], thoug

Of course, that money would come out of your taxes as a US citizen. And since you'd still have to pay for the drug (even at the reduced price), you would just effectively be creating socialized medicine.

I think it would've been replaced by a competing standard. Then again, the barrier of entry for Scheme is pretty low, there really wouldn't be much stopping people from using it. My prediction would be small-scale adoption of the

JavaScript is really nothing like Lisp. Macros/code is data and simple syntax are basically the defining features of a Lisp. Apart from these, JavaScript's type system is totally different (way weaker, based on objects but nothin

Pretty cool, but in practice Steemit's content is pretty mediocre. There are some high quality articles, but the front page is largely clickbait and articles talking about how successful Steemit is. I tried to write some programming ar
