Nothing too fancy or accurate. I use a Samsung Odyssey+ and play mostly Ultra Wings and War Thunder. It has been enough to put some life back in videogaming for me.

Congratulations for your release! The Kardius logo on the top left is very pixelated both on my phone and on my browser. Considering that the icons on the right are not pixelated I think this was not a conscious design choice. Sorry for kib

When I visited my local garbage dump with school I was impressed with the number of pumpkin plants growing out of the piles of garbage. I wonder why pumpkins grow so well there.

This is a real-valued computer, not a quantum computer. In the described algorithm the state is the real-valued angle of the polarizer. One could very well implement this algorithm using the charge on a capacitor. Also the algorithm has bug

I do use a foldable keyboard when I need to write more. But for random note capture the onscreen keyboard works well. Termux can be configured to display C M shift. It might sound cumbersome but you quickly develop a muscle memory for it. A

Note-taking is best served by a system, not by a single app. I used to struggle with note taking apps until I started to use org-mode on termux. Human interface relies on emacs, syncing and versioning relies on git, agenda and TODOs rely on

Sorry, my sentence was poorly formulated, and your counterpoint is attractive. Let me try it again: Is there any portion of reality that cannot have the evolution of its set of magnitudes replicated in a Turing Machine? > there are plent

AFAIK for hydrogen we can, but for oxygen the nucleus is already too big to simulate all the phenomena from first principles. Anyway, the fact we haven't been able to do it is not a proof that it's impossible. The article claims t

I came to this article expecting a logical proof of why AI was impossible, but instead found the following tautological argument: hard AI, which I define as intelligence with tacit knowledge, which in turn I define as knowledge that cannot

Developer text editors won't benefit from 120Hz monitors. Their scrolling is not smooth pixel-by-pixel, but line-by-line. Also most developers will navigate code with search, and won't need scrolling anyways. I would rather put my

As someone who needs parsers in a daily basis, I got hooked by your "oneliner parser". A search for parser generation in Haskell only gave me typical parser generators. Can you point some examples?

I often consult the "Seminumerical Algorithms" volume, as someone who has to implement lots of digital arithmetic. It is wonderful to help me base my choice of algorithms on math. I wouldn't recommend it as a way to get into

Making a very crude analysis based on the size of data, I would say solving aging is a piece of cake comparing to scanning someone's brain content. Our proteins that eventually break down with aging are coded by the DNA. The DNA is a f

For a more hopeful picture: Ending Aging, by Aubrey de Grey. He organizes that long list of disparate problems and propose a possible path for their solution. Doesn't make it sound any easier, but at least it is a hopeful reading.

Sure, there must have been a bootstraping effect, where a little better tools promoted 2 leg mobility a little, which promoted yet better tools and so on.

It would be more difficult to use tools if we had to use all members for locomotion. The ones who started walking straight got an advantage for being able to fight with spears and bows.
