Now I understand why Telefónica forced me to have WEP 128 that was automatically generated from the SSID. After I asked them to set up my own password (the router was password protected) they suggested I tell them what password I wanted ov

Well, I think potentially made up (and practically uncheckable) experience and credentials don't make up for a trustworthy position, therefore they are completely unnecessary on a pseudonymous internet forum.

The best tip I can give anybody about mastering a language is "read other's code", pick some good project or author in github (use the search engine there) and read every line, try to understand the "character" of t

While I completely agree with the second part of your comment, you didn't had to throw us your knowledge, skills and experience, it's anecdotal evidence and it weakened your point which was already strong enough.

You forgot to mention the simple fact that there is no problem at all to be solved there, and the US entered the war with some entirely made up pretext to test new weapons, show the rest of the world it's ground military supremacy and

The key here is in my opinion "proof of work", cryptohashes can be verified easily by anybody reading the blockchain as proofs of work. Find any task that has this feature and you'll be on your way of creating a new mining st

I think this is one of the most important problems of our time, and not sure if we are gonna solve it quickly enough. As Scott Adams says in his last book, if capitalism has succeeded for anything, is mostly because of it's simplicity

You made a very interesting point here, I guess I will re-evaluate my opinion on this topic, thanks!

Ah, classic capitalism. Once somebody makes anything profitable, there is no way to stop doing it.

While it can be certainly categorized as technology, I don't consider it so because it's based in purely subjective concepts like "good" and "bad" (right or wrong), instead of objective ones (working or not wor

I'm not sure if you're thinking into physical modern technology like electronics and stuff, but just in case, I meant technology more broadly (any human-made tool, machine, technique or system).

What do you mean there is no clear, correct answer to social problems? I think there are many solutions, the impossibility to solve them has more to do with either upper social classes not wanting to lose power (nothing can be enforced to t

Are ants self-aware or moral? Let me be honest, I don't think there was a "transition"; as far as we lived in groups, we were always using social rules that work, instead of those that didn't.

by pablovidal85 13y ago
Why instead? Actually it can be doing both at the same time. My point is that only technology that works inside the society will stay. Most likely the ones that create social problems will be replaced for those that don't.

by pablovidal85 13y ago
All social problems will be eventually solved through technology, not morality.

That's why I said near-equilibrium, precisely because I read about the E. Coli experiment on http://www.npr.org/blogs/health/2013/11/15/245168252/bacteri... and I trusted the editor where

True, but don't forget people can also act egoistically or produce harm to others completely on purpose too, just to say that this gift doesn't automatically makes Bill a good person in average, nor his bad actions from the past m

I have that already with libraries like caolan/async and node.js convention of first-argument-error + callbacks. Now, of course I would like to have that features natively, but not at the cost of having more (ugly) syntax. My point is

I don't get why this is an interesting study. Can somebody explain me?

Call me crazy, but I fail to see the improvement in this weird syntax and I've had enough. Go, there we go.

Evolution certainly works much slower in a near-equilibrium scenario.

Very slow (unusable) on a MacBook Air 1.4GHz 4GB RAM using Chromium 30.0.1589.0 (215899). I suppose it's the price of using an emscripten port.

Very impressive work, however, your "Keys Pressed" code could let a keypress position in the array on "true" if a key is pressed more than 1 second. I think you should set up a timeout to ensure a keypress position state

If you're into node.js development I would recommend https://github.com/jedireza/drywall as a minimal yet well organized CMS to extend yourself as you need.

This is true, but if we take on one side a group of consumers as one entity against the government as another, pseudonymity is way more valuable for the former than for the latter, for practical reasons.
