Good. My biggest issue with Twitter's 140 character limit is it removes all opportunity for nuance. Within 140 characters you can just barely voice and opinion or thought in the most basic terms. Yes you can split your thoughts into

I actually learned that the rain percentage is not the percentage chance that it will rain but is in fact the percentage of the coverage area that they will expect to get rain. So 50% rain meaning no rain at all or rain for the whole day i

All these social media/chat app companies are totally wasting their time. It's impossible for humans to even understand each other why do they need to communicate?!!!!

Well they won't quite make it here on July 14th. The spacecraft will be spending most of July 14th making as many observations as it possibly can then in the following days/weeks/months we'll get a slow trickle of data

I equate VR -> movies and AR -> smartphones. VR is a medium for immersion but AR really shines as a tool.

Is it unreasonable for me to want a C/++ standard that's just "What's mostly standard by all major compilers" so we can stop nitpicking about implementation details most people never encounter?

Personally I tried to like Rust but I just found it endlessly frustrating to write code in. Yeah C++ has a lot of gotchas but they're gotchas I know. I feel like the Rust compiler is just yelling at me constantly and a lot of pattern

I went to the same high school that Anand went to (albeit several years after he attended). It was always interesting listening to my C.S. teachers talk about Anand and how he had gotten started and everything. It was the kind of thing tha

Trademark isn't about people making clones of your game. In this case Trademark is about people confusing the title of your game with another game because they use the same name. Trademarking "Candy Crush Saga" makes sense b

It's funny because I made an SFCave clone for the Xbox Indie marketplace back in 2009 when it looked like that store might not be totally awful. My girlfriend was playing Flappy Bird and I told her that it makes $50,000 a day and she

Eh... a few years ago I would have agreed with you but based on their recent releases and the kinds of statements their designers make I get the distinct impression that whatever magic Blizzard had that allowed them to make games like Warcr

The reason they were fired is Valve decided to abandon their own AR developments and embrace VR. Seeing as Valve had no interest in developing the technology further they gave it to the fired AR employees because I guess they're just cool

For x86 I'd say study but I don't think there's any fun to be had there. Something like MIPS32 would be pretty fun because that instruction set actually makes sense to a human.
