Same thing here, only with an instrument. I work at home a lot and have a Clavinova in the same room as the computer. It's 10 seconds to change chairs. It clears my mind, and it also helps my piano technique.

I am amazed, more so by the fact that you made the source code available (and also since it's made with node.js). I will have a lot of fun either with the app itself or the source code. Thanks!

Nice to see this addressed explicitly. I think it applies also to some other circles I've been in contact with, such as science and music. For instance, in music there's this obsession about having "perfect pitch". I've seen a lot of people

If you understand spanish, you might enjoy "Comprar, Tirar, Comprar" (buy, throw away, buy): http://www.rtve.es/v/983391/ It's about the fact that most products now have a "programmed lifespan".

Now I feel I have to say it: I've started a YouTube Channel inspired by the Khan Academy (in spanish). It's not like Hacker CS, though. I'm targetting only guys who want to program and don't know how to start, not future CS students. In my

I do that for 'rm'. I do an 'ls' first, then reedit the command and put an 'rm'.

In my case this is great advice, thanks for sharing. I've been meaning to polish it but... I think I'm going to put all my code in github now!

Actually, I got so excited (and moved) when I saw his talk at GEL: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yTXKCzrFh3c That I started my own channel for Programming in C++, for my students... I have 74 videos already... (in Spanish, sorry) http:/

That explains why I improve so much rewriting programs from scratch many times. Until it comes out naturally you have to do a lot of effort, which seems like a waste of time but...

"When I see the eval and tokenize functions I ask myself, why not use Qi?" You mean to use Qi's eval? I don't know Qi, so I don't understand what that would entail.

I do. But I've come to accept it like that, for me it's not that terrible anymore. After all, I am not "in the game", really, even if it would be nice. It's a shame you cannot get the entrepreneurial gene after being born. But it's nice t

What I have seen so far is that very bright and capable scientists (physicists, for instance) who are non-programmers[1] are usually extremely ashamed of their code. I'm talking even CS Professors, who spend most of the time proving theorem

Okay, now that you know... just start counting the number of times other people discover this for the first time and feel the urge to post it either here or on Reddit. Not that I blame you at all, this is pretty amazing stuff... ... but my
