Larabee was a glimpse into the future. 10, 15 years from now, are we really going to be discretizing our computers into seperate CPUs and GPUs?

If IBM asked asked you to make a few short demos of BASIC to bundle along with your interpreter as an example of what it could do, what would you have done? Keep in mind that this is BASIC, and, as a result, is mostly targeted at people wit

I have to clarify: them knowing and proliferating the 'truth' is one thing, whereas the idea that they can actually do something about it is what I'm really getting at. They paint a pessimistic picture of the world that

Those theorists are quite irrational, but what I find most ridiculous about a lot of them is not the theories themselves, but the idea that they have the ability to actually fight back. Sensationalists like Alex Jones assert crazy ideas suc

Krita is quite honestly a very impressive piece of software. It's shaping up to be quite a formidable FLOSS Photoshop competitor. For all of GIMP's effort, its interface comes across as a little too far removed from Photoshop, and

Does anybody really know why JS's type system was designed the way it was? It seems so out of whack with what people want out of a language, dynamically typed or otherwise.

The payload reminds me of '90s-era malware: more intent on just trashing up the system than with gaining any sort of profit. Wiping random people's MBRs isn't exactly nice, but considering that's all it really does, it&#

I find that with the quantity of dialogue, I tend to observe the opposite trend in a lot of story-driven videogames: many lines will be devoted to elaborating on needless backstory, reducing characters down to walking encyclopedias. Many of
