Really? Because I continue to be more and more amazed by Google Translate everyday. It gets subtleties and strange things right that I never thought a computer translation system could get right. I'm an ESL-speaker, and I think certain

We shit on Holmes all the time, but sometimes I wonder if she's really so different from the average tech CEO/founder. Consider that the requirements and circumstances are totally different in our industry vs. hers. She has to d

That video, with the pre- and post- differences is pretty remarkable. Here's my stupid question of the day: given that this color-grading of RAW streams makes _SUCH_ a massive difference... why don't companies like Conan and Sony

So actually my one and only exposure to Stewart Lee was a clip of him dealing with a heckler: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LZQod7j-Cak And that was what won me over! Other comedians would insult the heckler... but his re

Yes, but I want to point out on odd edge-cases that's not always true. For example, when designing something for 3dprinting, I sometimes prefer modeling programs over CAD programs because I have control over, for example, however a sph

I can't remember the very specifics, but one particular instance that sticks out is when I was creating some images on the fly for tobii eye-tracking software. I was using pillow, I remember... I think it might have been pillow which w

Except when dealing with things that tend to require speed, PyPy is short in some respect in that the code won't work. This has happened to me 5 or 6 times now. At this point I just stick to stock python.

I'm sorry to be a little off-topic here, but can someone please tell me how this guy got those math equations looking like that? They look like the common Latex font, but they're neither SVG nor PNG output of Latex as I first thou

Since I've started weightlifting, and reading books of the subject and watching a lot of instructional videos, I know more about all sorts of muscles and bones than I ever thought I would have known. I didn't even have to try to m

The worst part for me is it opens it in Safari and not Chrome. (As well that it opens directions with not-Google Maps)

If you want active discussions, r/gainit or r/fitness isn’t too bad. As well as the weightlifting subreddits — really nice and supportive folks there.

The other big problem with 'affordable housing' is that it's corrupt. You'll find that for many of them, there's a long list of things you get preference for... like being a residence of that little suburb. So offsp

I was almost going to not ask this, but I think in a place like this it's more appropriate than inappropriate -- guys, how are the toilet-stuff dealt with? I want to do hiking/camping, but the confusion about this whole thing keep

Okay fair, I rescind my comment saying that you in particular are a racist/sexist (I'm outside my edit time window for my parent comment). Still however, there seem to be a lot of articles claiming that you funded things other tha

I just find it really inspiring to know we have the presence of such adventurous explorers. Once we find ways to travel to other stars, we'll need these men to explore once again.

Not the same thing. Lucey was funding memes that brought out the worst in people, memes with blatant racist/sexist undertones. And a lot of executives jobs now have some clause about personal character outside of work, as they very wel

I also love my X1C (6th gen) and how slim it is! I wish though that Lenovo had sort of copied Apple on the charger. I was too spoiled with Apple laptops' charger hooks that come out on which you can wrap the wire around. The rather lar

Yeah, I don't. To think of it now: I think boy scouts really are a great organization, to be teaching kids how to tie knots and survive in the outdoors. I wish such a thing existed for me to attend as an adult!

There are some CAD pics in that page. I find it curious that the cad pics merge together the mechanical parts, the wires, and the electronics. Can anyone tell which CAD software they’re using just by looking at the screenshots?

Apple Watch 'gameifies' fitness. You set a goal of burning a certain amount of calories, "moving" a certain distance, etc. -- and it tracks these things, and gives you little "awards" for when you successfully

That makes it worse. Too many names are based on insider-jokes, too many of it just scares away noobies. posh, I agree, with the other poster, is a fabulous name for something like this

I love the concept, and I am generally happy with how it works. I think it should catch on. Except the damned name. Come on guys , there are already enough crazily named things out there, you didn't have to be another one :(
