If he made the layout a bit uglier, and made the language more esoteric and generally difficult to understand, this would make a fantastic academic paper. But seriously, what a wonderful world it would be if all papers were this well writte

The fundamental problem with OSS games: Many people who contribute to OSS are doing it because they use it in their work. No one uses games in their work. More significant, all - every single one of them, professional game developers are up

How about we put a distinctive icon in the trusted zones, which the renderer won't allow under any circumstances in the untrusted area. Also with a buffer so nothing too similar is allowed, or perhaps a warning comes up if something is

I've produced commercial 3D video content (blu-ray extras, commercials, shorts), while not believing in it at the time. Yet now using VR I think it's incomparable. I'm a believer.

If you use VR to mimic a multi monitor setup, for sure. But there are potentially new ways to organise media and interact with clips which VR allows. I'm really interested to see what we can do in VR for video editing.

It's software to tell the pilot where to go (who in turn uses the autopilot quite often), and software to point the camera in the right direction and trigger cameras (pointing at the ground). All up it's 9 processes talking to eac

The day a plane you're flying on relies on my software to not crash it is the day I'm not letting my family out of an underground bunker.

Try searching the web to see if/how it works with Gems. Go on, I dare you... 'ruby crystal gem', 'crystal gem', ... For that matter, crystal vs elixr. Kind of wishing all these projects just had made up names.

I write aviation software (i.e. running real time in aircraft) - not safety related in any way - and I use Ruby. I use it because iterating quickly and being super productive means I can do more myself and keep the team small. And it's

Everyone mentions the learning curve... I just learned it myself and pretty much was up and running after an amazing and fast paced intro tutorial of about 20 mins. Maybe it used to be hard to learn because now it seems to me very logical.

Would love to see this restricted to which lines are actually executed in a typical use. I.e. ignore dead code which is still in the repo. Probably wouldn't be too hard for the interpreted languages.

Great to hear you are happy, but I do think you're being exploited. I'm pretty sure you can flip burgers for £12. I hope this motivates you to ask for more.

More useful perhaps to spin up a blind person to remotely use your app or site? A sighted developer who only has experience using screen readers with one app is going to be like a chef with no taste buds.

Shocked that it takes a fringe project to be promoting static linking and cleaning up the filesystem. Would love to hear the linux grandfathers chime in...

Ah hah... good spotting. Using radio to locate down to 10's of meters is a heck of an achievement. Makes me wonder how many other amazing things are hidden under the surface of this effort that are similarly amazing but don't see

If they were to commit resources to this situation, a simple, tiny, low power radio beacon would be an option. Rather than search for it, let it tell Rosetta where it is. The problem with this is that even though the beacon could be only a

Me too. I don't disagree with these warm and fuzzy environments for kids to learn, but that existed when I was a kid - logo: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logo_(programming_language) - and I thought it was a joke

I think the number of replies to this is because the basic point is almost correct but not conveyed quite correctly. If the post said "...if you CAN enjoy something across...spectrum..." it would be more accurate. You don't H

Apparently you're 8 times more likely to die if your car is half the weight of the one you have a high speed collision with (sorry from memory no reference, could be bogus). Add to that the over-the-top strength of the Range Rover and

If I could install aftermarket side airbags I would. It's the main advance missing from the older cars. I don't agree with your statement about the high speed collision though. If it's front on, the strength of the passenger

I live in Mexico, and a few hundred dollars will get you a complete new exhaust system for both your car and your partners car. It won't be OEM, but it will work. And tires, I see that as a consumable like gasoline, so wouldn't in
