That's crazy. My elementary and middle school required that we took typing classes. Mavis Beacon on Apple IIs FTW.

They have been working on and off an official Mod API for a while. http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2012-02-29-mojang-hires-bu... But this has nothing to do with monetizing servers, which is the point of the post.

You were never allowed to sell them in the first place. This part of the EULA was being ignored so Notch clarified.

Upload and Share tend to be the same thing for most users. You want this on that . I don't think it's coincidence that the share icon looks like an upload icon in iOS7.

They either have to bring SIMB to every language or to none at all? They want to improve web application performance. JavaScript is the only language that works on the web. So they are bringing it to JavaScript. That doesn't mean they

In the book History of the Peloponnesian War (possibly the first historical text ever written.) There is a passage that remarks about how death does not deter crime. People have been trying to use death as punishment for most of human histo

What about the people who sit outside with a case of beer in a cooler with ice? Instead of buying a couple bags of ice a month, they use this instead. Now is it a good idea?

weird, the MUNI busses I take do not stop at every single block. They stop for lights, but they the stops are typically several blocks apart.

Have you written a program that can do this? These people put a lot of hard work into something people find interesting. I'm glad this is on hacker news because I'm interested in how these games were written and developed.

I know it sounds weird, but sometimes I have more than one thing on my computer at a time! And some of those things have audio. So it's nice to control the volume of a specific thing, like a video, without having to change the audio fo

Leave it there for a moment. She slaps it, but doesn't scratch at it. Like a high five.

My dog high fives herself in the mirror all the time. No idea why.

If you never saw your reflection before, then suddenly someone places a mirror in front of you. It would probably take a few minutes for you to realize that it's you in the mirror and not another human.

my emacs does have colors. It's M-x shell that doesn't have colors. And this goes to the point of why emacs users like myself use iTerm. Because it works . The only thing I had to setup in iTerm was my color scheme. And even that

I'm on OSX using iTerm2. Cmd-1, Cmd-2, etc are how I switch between tabs. I keep specific things at specific numbers so it's easy to move around. For example, the project I'm working on is always tab 1, pianobar (terminal pan

It doesn't seem to work properly. It doesn't pick up my .bashrc, it doesn't have colors, etc.

Agreed. Good management doesn't bother me about every little change and gets the customer to appreciate what we can actually deliver.

Before I tried the DIY Soylent I ate a typical american diet. Hamburgers, fries, pizza, popcorn, etc. I tried two of the popular DIY Soylents (for a month each). I didn't feel stuffed like after a big meal, I just didn't feel hung

Most of us are still waiting for our shipment to arrive. I did a DIY Soylent for a month. It was alright. So I'm excited to try the official thing.

There aren't, the name of a function is optional (if you assign it to a variable.) So you can write: function a() {} // or var a = function() {} // or var a = function a() {} // o

Awesome job! I was trying to understand curry by learning Haskell but you summed it up perfectly. What is the difference between curry and partial? Is a partial just a curry that hasn't filled in all the arguments yet?

It solves the nasty versioning issues that plague the other package managers like pip and rubygems. Every package gets the correct versions for all of its dependancies at the cost of taking more hard drive space. Hard drive space is ridicul

I'm in the same boat. Other people have pointed out how she's done things far worse than Eich. But here is my reasoning. If you disagree with the board of a company and you want to stop using them, thats fine. Doesn't matter
