I could have sworn the "order 5 cubic honeycomb" image was a direct screencap of Beyond the Mind's Eye.

I wanted this for GPIO on my PC to interface with some hardware, but all the prebuilt USB TF232 adapters had the GPIO pins closed off, and AFAICT the TF232 requires flashing using some proprietary windows binary to get into a mode where the

I think that's probably right but... that video basically says "you could use string for lots of things long ago, the movie Castaway proved it was necessary, we use string for lots of things today." Short-form videos are not

Do you have an example of quotation in lisp vs m4? I'm interested in what you asserted but I need something more concrete I think.

Aside from "not ancient" Java has everything you want! I'd consider the best tooling (Intellij), static, strongly typed, has enums now (sealed interfaces), composeable error handling, null safety with new module flags, etc.

I think the descriptivist vs prescriptivist debate often misses the point. Language shifts aren't bad in themselves but some language shifts reduce useful specificity in a language. Like if "literally" no longer means &quot

Is the implication that the body needs more Vitamin D than the body will produce through sunlight exposure? I thought sunlight exposure was best because it wouldn't lead to _too much_ Vitamin D.

I like fantasy, and there's "believable fantasy" and "unbelievable fantasy". If you start saying the world has some unusual property X and then show the consequences of that, that's believable - maybe in the fu

I watched the Tencent show based on the immense praise here at HN and I agree. The characters especially, but even none of the major plot pieces had any actual bearing on the plot. If you replace the robots in "I, robot" you&#x2

The foundation offered excuses but this feels like it's all on them, especially with documented evidence of post-hoc rule tweaking. To me this is one more confirmation that awards are basically all industry self-congratulation and poli

I agree with a lot here, but I think the author is overplaying "get things done fast" or underplaying "stable, performant code". I like indie games, but I've played enough games that crashed if I look at them wrong

Do you have more stuff I could read about the swords? I've heard stuff like "Japanese swords are the best" any number of times too and had a hard time believing it, and historically I'm not sure there'd be any marke

How does it interface with the cards? IIRC the rust pcsc library used by Sequoia needed C libraries. I've been doing some NFC stuff too and was looking for a pure-rust solution if there was one.

Couldn't read the article. Of all fields though, I wouldn't expect banks to be big climate affectors in the first place. Is this maybe related to compute costs for trading? Or investing in climate-positive ventures?
