Maybe this is the JavaScript Stockholm Syndrome talking, but I've come to really like structuring code based on the type of calls being made. It guides me to extract the synchronous parts and cover them in unit tests. The async parts o

CSS 'calc' has multiplication, so polynomials are within reach. Here's a nice easing function reference page, with math: http://gizma.com/easing/ I'm not sure if it's possible to express an in-

Yes. I world also like to see the delay randomized between 3 and 10 days so that nobody can tell what tempo you're replying at.

No but it became Terminator 1 retroactively, much in the same way that Kyle Reese retroactively become John Connor's father.

I assume you mean to compare it to: el.email = (function(){ var input = document.createElement('input'); input.type = "email"; return input; })(); ...or something similar. Your could

Oh this is nice. I'll take a second to also shamelessly plug my library Barrel, which is like these except it's for sequencing anything you can do with a JavaScript function, not specifically music. https://www.npmjs.co

Sometimes the ball bounces off the spout and rolls down towards the camera. Other times it rolls aways from the camera. Can anyone speculate on why this is apparently non-deterministic?

Among words correlated to weight-gain, the least correlated of these is cheeseburgers! Be still my heart (not literally)!

Lower bound for someone who "really likes beer" is maybe a six-pack a week or about $500 for the year. Upper bound is maybe three fancy pints per day or about $7500 per year. About the same range as a used motorcycle on Craigslist

Asking "what makes you grumpy?" would pair well with "what beings you joy?"

But what about a runway where the wind almost never changes direction? I imagine LAX is like that, being perpendicular to the coast.

This may not be pleasant in practice, but is there anything that offers a text-based language for describing schematics and/or PCBs? (Similar to the way OpenSCAD has a DSL/Scheme for 3D modelling?) From what I understand, VHDL etc

Hmm, cool! The way I might go about that using Barrel would be to have many sequences in many players, can hook up your signals to call play() (or pause/rewind/stop, as needed) on the right player. Also, Barrel has no built-in sto

Is there such a thing as a language that compiles to a value rather than an executable program? I've done a really hacky version of something this where a user would input a succinct, high-level description of a sequence of colored lig

I you are talking about some kind of timeline, may I plug my own JavaScript solution for this? It's called Barrel: https://github.com/zachrose/barrel You can think of it either as map for setTimeout, or a way to t

I don't know how we got to talking about this, but Honda makes a road legal MotoGP replica* bike for $184k. *Minus the pneumatic valves and probably a few other things.

Wouldn't the practice of "A" players only hiring other "A" players imply a certain monoculture to your team? Do you hire junior "A" players who aren't really at the levels of skill or professionalism
