This is awesome. About a year ago I bought a Kinect with the intent of doing something very similar. This story makes me want to get coding again. I was excited by Amazon phone's stereo camera as well as Google's project tango. De

I just looked up css3 multiple columns. Great pointer. I'll investigate it, thanks!

You are right. I'm planning a follow up with more detail.

All of them, as far as I can tell, other than (apparently) emacs and vim.

Are you referring to tiling or laying out a single file across multiple columns?

Honestly, just never used it (not since freshman year almost two decades ago). I mainly use eclipse and it works very well for me. I like how I can hover over a variable and it tells me info about that variable, click on it and it shows me

Split pane/tiling? Can sublime layout single file in multiple columns? Note that I'm asking for a multi-column editor, not a multi-pane editor.

Is it a common feature to lay out a single file in multiple columns? Not split panes. Not the same file split into two with two independent scroll bars. Multiple columns the way a single article is spread across multiple columns in a new pa

Haha, I'm the one who asked that question years ago :) I'm the author of this article. Vim does come closest to what I want. However, I'd like to be able to do this in intellij, eclipse, sublime, atom, etc. In other words, my

I'm surprised too, but there don't seem to be any such plugins (although vim apparently comes closes...never looked at emacs). What I find really interesting is that I seem to be in a _very_ tiny minority that wants this or even h

With modern monitors, I could increase the font size until it matches a toddler's alphabet book, I wold still have plenty of space left for at least a couple more columns :)

Author here. Looks like lots of people are mixing up multi-column editing with split pane views. I want the same file laid out in multiple columns to make use of the screen real-estate. If such functionality does indeed exist (other than em

There are several books which speak about HFT at a high level. If you are curious about the actual mechanics of stock exchanges and (a bit about) how various parties make their money, I wrote a bit about it at http://falconair.gi

Cell phones were huge for them. I worked at a radio shack store in the mid-90s when they started stocking car phones (big, bulky items) and very shortly after that hand-held phones. We used to sell them like hot cakes. As a high school stud

The formatting on that page makes it very difficult to read. The text is overflowing its column and the 'share with twitter' bar on the left covers left had side text and I can't get rid of it. I'm on chrome, mac. The co

"The Lady Tasting Tea"[1] is a fantastic book about statisticians. Someone recommended that book to me as an intro to stats, which it most certainly is not. However, if you have had even a single course in statistics, you will rec

I once had to get my head around over 120k lines of complex, concurrent, buggy spaghetti Java code (for a real-time trading system). My first attempt was to reverse engineer the code into a UML diagram. For some reason I keep making this mi

I don't think it is just a matter of adding a font, with 12 additional letter for urdu. The actual layout algorithm has to change (how characters are laid out, their size, how beginning of one connects to ending of another, etc.).

I don't know about the author's state of mind, but generally speaking, this is not just a matter of preference. For those of us who grew up reading Nastaliq, other type faces such as naksh are fairly difficult to read 'fluent
