I'm just wondering what the point of having homogeneous arrays is when the dictionaries aren't...

Hehe, that reminds me of iphones auto-correcting "iphone" to "iPhone". Jeez that would irritate me, I'm trying to write a text message, not look like an iDouche...

Hmm, besides being from 2009, this looks very very incomplete, there's almost no real functional code, just a multiplier, divider, and a simple ram module (and not sure if any of those work properly...). So all in all, not too exciting, unf

Absolutely. I'd also be concerned about the security--what if an attacker gains access to the camera/microphone without your knowledge? Scary stuff...

Yet another website doing something similar to what you're describing: http://www.freedomsponsors.org/

Yes, sorry--a man's gotta sleep. Hope everyone interested sees my followups...

Oops--I forgot the book. It was this: http://www.amazon.com/Improve-Vision-Without-Glasses-Contact... (though mine has a more modern looking cover, I guess I have a newer edition?)

Well, I did too--I started wearing glasses at around age 4. Books and TV would certainly contribute as well--as I understand it, "nearpoint stress" is the main cause of myopia. The eyes are tuned for scanning the horizon for faraway threats

Well, they're just as credible as any eye doctor IMO. I try to be skeptical about everything, and I'm not 100% sure of this--it's hard to explain how some people have really bad eyesight from an early age. Then again, there's an entire indu

Well, sort of--there's habits you should keep (looking at faraway objects and blinking more) while staring at the screen. But that's just because you're using your eyes in a very unnatural way. LASIK is the equivalent of dental veneers in y

I'm sure glad I didn't get this. I wore glasses for years and hated them, until I read about vision therapy. My vision has definitely gotten better, without any lenses or surgery, for free (well ok, I bought a book about it), and I'm sure i

I think I'll pass--I instinctively check my phone too much as it is, I really don't need another device to feed my dopamine addiction. Reminds me of an old Calvin and Hobbes strip--if we wanted technology to make our lives more convenient,

Seems kind of funny for TPB to be threatening a copyright infringement lawsuit. But then again, it's also funny for a pro-copyright organization to be blatantly ripping them off...

Well, luckily, psilocybin is easy enough to grow on your own in the form of mushrooms, though quite illegal. The information is out there if you look for it.

When I first clicked on it, all of the text besides the link was completely invisible, so I had no idea it was NSFW. I guess a lot of other people didn't realize that before they clicked on it at work.

One of the names he dismissed is actually a pretty good word to use to describe the blog post: Wolframble.

Weird, that's the name of a language I worked on at a former job. It was seriously awesome, it was like a functional version of Python mixed with assembly, and was much clearer and also faster than C++. Shame that it will probably never see

Not sure why you're getting downvoted so much, that's hilarious!
