As a lefty I visualized myself spinning a top - it's clockwise. That's because I'd use my right hand to spin a top. Do righties not use their left hand to spin a top?

I love the possibilities of custom display hardware. This makes me think hexagonal pixels, vector graphics, and input-to-photon latency so low it bends reality.

The problem with two way data binding is it assumes a function call is free. Two way data binding breaks when a function call is many orders of magnitude slower, like over the web. You end up with classic ASP.NET.

There is more than one set of bytes. You may not care about copying the inode structure when you are copying your files from point a to point b, but you should when you are cloning the disk. Many times the software on the CD is looking at t

This reminds me of my friend's workaround for the 5mb disk quotas they put on our shells in the 90s. He discovered filenames could be up to 2MB in length and did not count towards the quota, so he built a pseudo filesystem using a dire

This is a great resource. I've been slowly building one over the last couple months and had to learn all of it from various sites. It's nice to have this all in one place. It's a 1000mmx600mm gantry design I made in fusion

It made a lot more sense to me once I fixed the terminology. You keep saying index, but what you are referring to is an offset.

Understandable. It's my own anecdata. For what it's worth he's been an engineer at google for about 18 years now. I trust him when he says he made an honest effort.

I'm more impressed with tsmc's 5nm process than the M1. It will be interesting when we have more processors out manufactured on the same process.

Lindsey Graham was very much publicly against Trump, then news came out his email was hacked by Russia, and soon after his stance turned 180 degrees. It's all coincidental but there are just too many coincidences to disregard it.

What are we supposed to do? Live in trees? Build everything ourselves from raw resources we mined with our own hands? If you want any kind of advancement in civilization you need commerce.

I was using WSL to do esp8266 development so I could use linux tools. The official esp8266 windows toolchain is based on cygwin. If I'm using something that needs a unix environment anyway, why use cygwin when you have WSL? I upgrade

I sent Frontier's router back the day my service was installed, yet they still charge me $10/month for the last two years to rent it. If there is a class action against Frontier, sign me up.
