It's more like 300 or 400 real actions during the heavy, action-packed moments. It's just insane. I doubt I can even click a mouse that fast.

It would be fun to see the AI players spamming the ingame chat to communicate with each other in its own language :)

In an indoor field it's totally possible. Standard golf is affected by weather, though.

Who hates it? 2017 and 2018 saw a resurgence of aggressive play that resulted in more varied games than ever. Some strategies that were previously considered all-in plays are now standard openers.

Yeah, in the same way that a washing machine can be replaced by a river and a piece of wood. As the parent comment explains, nearly every electronic money system in Europe uses Visa or Mastercard as a backend, creating a unhealthy duopoly.

You can use source code control to keep yourself outside the environment, but I don't know if it's worth it. The Smalltalk environments allow for unique workflows, and that's a lot of the appeal Smalltalk has.

You walk. Riding a bus means you have to wait for one first. A 5 minute walk isn't worth the wait unless there are extra conditions (no walkways, ice on the walkways, heat wave...).

When did we give up on tools that scale well from casual users to power users?

It's always a new number. Shortly before the cards expire, you're issued a new one. That's how it's been for me for this whole century.

Where? This is not common practice where I live, in fact, it's the first time I've heard about it. Interesting!

You can have a local library in Spotify, but it isn't synced. Google Music allows you to upload your own songs and play them on all devices.

I used Google Music until recently, just to unify the cloud library with my personal library. The problem was how atrocious the Google Music player is. It's a joke compared to Spotify, or to any desktop app.

Ten years ago evey respectable device had DLNA support, an agnostic way to browse and play all kinds of media content available on the local network. Sharing a song with a friend could be easily done by sending the whole song (duplicates we

You can definitely find popular festivals in Galicia where getting drunk is the main goal, if that's your thing. I'd say it's a waste of time, though, given how beautiful and great Galicia is. Better to get wasted closer to h

The original Bitcoin white paper explains this pretty well. The Bitcoin blockchain is never frozen, and the longest (the hardest) chain is always the valid one. The paper includes a formula to calculate the probability of a block being repl

Not true. There's a time bomb in the Ethereum protocol that makes mining more difficult over time. This slows the issuance (and the whole blockchain). During Ethereum's life, the block reward has been reduced, and the time bomb ha

As a driver of both types of cars, this is completely false, in my experience. Having a clutch pedal doesn't make drivers more aware or capable. On the contrary, it's a small cognitive load that can be freed, then put somewhere el

Think of it as one, single "world computer" and it will be much closer to reality. Everyone can access that computer for free, and use it for a price.

Syntax highlighting and basic outline support is not orgmode. Orgmode is an agenda, a smart task scheduler, a spaced repetition learning system, a publishing environment, a literate code tool, a knowledge base...

There's nothing standard about Spacemacs. It's a tremendously useful premade config, but it's not indicative of the performance of the Emacs environment.

Same case as Rust then. Currently backed by Mozilla, with lots of big companies using it too. IIRC the most famous case is Dropbox. Rust has unique features that make it very attractive. I'd say Go has unique features too (e.g. uniform

Yeah, it's much safer to use a language backed by Google, a company known for ruthlessly killing non-core projects after a few years, no matter how much traction they have.

Of course there's a fallback. If the fly-by-wire system fails, there's another whole fly-by-wire system ready to take over. Usually this is safer than the old redundant hydraulics systems where all the lines ran close together, ma

The article says it went from the 95th to the 11th floor. It appears it stopped before reaching the bottom buffer.

The organic layout was what made Exposé different and useful. Imagine this scenario: four fully maximized windows, one on top of the other. Exposé would put one window on every quarter of the screen, but their places and sizes would be diff

That explains why the best way to reach the bigger tech companies is to make a complain go viral here. It's kinda fucked up.

They added weights to their headphones to add a "quality" feel to them, because they were made of plastic and usually high-end headphones use metal in some places like the mounts and the headbands.
