Physically we are not sure. Mathematically the equations could be taught in the same class. (Exaggeration a little as they in very complicated but hopefully you see my point) they come from similar places.

This is actually what inspires me as a physicist. So back in the day people were looking for an encapsulated theory of why the hell things happened. The Principle of Least Time was the original theory, but that didn't make sense (look

There's also Sturfee which focuses on outdoor spaces which is a very hard problem for simple AR toolkits like this. Depth is hard and so most of these players cannot do outdoor AR. sturfee.com DISCLAIMER: I work at Sturfee and it'

Not sure how many people know the back story based on the comments I've read. This language was designed by Louis D'hauwe for his iOS app Pixture. He wanted a language that could be used for shader like features on his app but App

Ah shareholder value. Value is the keyword. It's not shareholder money per se. If a companies stock jumps because people think you are bold for making your own secure network equipment then you have created value. Security and privacy

It is hard to reason about. I think if you understood it (meaning you are a core contributor) then you feel like it really helps organize your code and keep everything reasonable. But to a newbie it is the exact opposite. I know in my proje

I honestly would support Apple or Mozilla from refusing to render AMP pages. I use DuckDuckGo on Safari so don't have to deal with it thankfully.

I think the article is trying to get at the question of how long magic can last. Magic comes from a perfect formula but eventually that formula grows weak and ineffective. Often companies will try and throw money at the formula hoping to ke

It's important for software developers and in demand job applicants to push the trends. I refused the noncompete clause at my startup (still got job) and made a point of how I'm principled against them for hurting people like the

I love Apple Music and he perfectly captures my frustrations with it. Beats 1 and Curated playlists are my favorite thing yet there are so many simple things I can't do. Reminders for shows. Easy navigation to shows I always listen to.

I'm a college student in Silicon Valley who's originally from downtown Chicago. When I moved here it was not the place I expected. Maybe SF is different or Palo Alto but where I am I just see regular families who are struggling t

This confused me with Foundation's Date class as well. I think it's really important to have abstractions that are really clear. Like for example I had to represent Open Hours for business and wanted a way to represent 4pm on Mond

Oh hey thanks for the reply. I think I misunderstood before. But what you are saying is what I meant to say. That GraphQL is fantastic in that it gives a layer of abstraction away from versions apis with different endpoints.

I fully agree. It's different on Twitter because it is far more public. Plus things like Retweets cause the problem. With Facebook it isn't much a problem except for more public entities like USA Today. On Twitter however I don&#x

I'll say that most of my physics classes lasted 2 years. 1 quarter in the class room and a year and a half before it really clicked. Wouldn't it be nice if you could retake classes again.

Yea I live on a street with the pilot program and no doubt they were much brighter than 3000K. They were very blue but I really like them. It gave my neighborhood a more small town feel if that makes any sense.

Facebook has said that they never remove a property from their databases which seemed nuts to me but with Relay and GraphQL it makes a lot of sense. Why have the need for versioning when the client can request whatever they need.

I love it when new problems can be solved in old ways. In physics we say there aren't 10,000 problems there are just 10,000 manifestations of 5. And it really seems like that's true here. Maybe we should stop laying off people for

I guess there is a region where it's ok. I love Postman and think it performs great. I'd make the same argument for Slack; however because I have to open 24/7 there is a big pain on the battery which Slack needs to worry more
