Another tangent, I went on a trip to LA. The drive to airport was noisy, airport was noisy, airplane was noisy, city was noisy, air conditioner in room was noisy. This went on for the whole week. I didn't really notice.…
Same! I did this in unity3d, but also want to add this to my remote tool. Where can I find the motivation? :) This is also a very handy idea...
Yes, I'm a big fan of Bret Victor's work. I share his Inventing on Principle talk on a near yearly basis. I've seen light table years ago and thought it looked really neat, but I haven't looked into it much as it wasn't…
I love this. Probably because I've been thinking of similar ideas for what seems like the last decade, I just have coders block when it comes to actually implementing it. Seeing it (well something like it) actually…
I believe pilot study here means: small-scale preliminary study, not vehicle pilots.
I don't remember that happening, I think I wasn't watching the news much during that period in my life. But I did hear about it in past year after reading Quinn's books and following some mental threads afterwards. Wild…
Ishmael or My Ishmael touches on this subject. Thank you for reminding me. I forget exactly, but, the basic idea is primitive people didn't have all these laws about what to do. They expected you to behave, and if you…
Where did you read this? (I'd like to know more)
I've used this technique quite a bit in the past, but often not enough. I work in games so a lot of problems are actual visual 2d or 3d problems. Things like: finding the closest valid object I can target at my given…
from: https://clarkvision.com/articles/eye-resolution.html How many megapixels equivalent does the eye have? The eye is not a single frame snapshot camera. It is more like a video stream. The eye moves rapidly in small…
From the about: "This is an independent DIY search engine that focuses on non-commercial content, and attempts to show you sites you perhaps weren't aware of in favor of the sort of sites you probably already knew…
pandia has a nice ring to it, wikipedia: In Greek mythology, the goddess Pandia or Pandeia was a daughter of Zeus and the goddess Selene, the Greek personification of the moon.
I've never considered it the french spelling. It's the british english spelling: https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?date=today%205-y&ge... US tends to drop the u's in a lot of words. It doesn't make the original…
Looks useful. Suggestion: as a non-paying user I don't immediately know what the chat tab does. You can find out under the pricing tab but it's not obvious where to find this information. Might be good to say what it…
I think behaving as if there is no free will is such a change from how I was raised and how 99.99% of society believes and functions, would require some Buddha-level strength of will, which I don't possess. It's so…
I don't believe in free will. I haven't really for about 20 years or so. However, I act as if I do, as I've always done. It's a habit I choose not to break. Changing to act as I believe would be too much for me to…
Yeah that could possibly be it. If I run into again I could try clearing caches. And also wanted to mention that since firefox is what I use daily, of course I will mainly see issues there. If I used chrome daily…
I'm not sure if these are examples of dropped support, but I run into issues on websites that prevent me from doing something I really need to do: - I could not unsubscribe from amazon prime yesterday using firefox. The…
The news widget is terrible, and the sole reason I haven't switched to windows 11. I spent about 30m turning off news source after news source before giving up. Apparently there is an infinite supply of them. It's…
This was on hacker news a few days ago but there wasn't much interest, which is surprising. Setting a data breakpoint, then rewinding time, then fixing the error in code (while game is running), hot-reloading code and…
This seems like a "me too" comment, but I agree on family sharing being fairly poor for most (IMO) families. I still love steam, but I was really excited to share my library of 300 games with my son who just got a steam…
I'm sure you're correct for a lot of metrics, but to say every metric is declining might be wrong. Homelessness is going up slowly but surely: https://www.statista.com/statistics/555795/estimated-number-... Is this a…
Thanks John. I'm immediately excited by this project. I love the idea of alfred et. al. but there's always something lacking about them: it's difficult to do plugins, or they're done in a language I don't know, or…
You are correct, it is not true based on the study. What they asked to comment on was: "I feel burnt out from work" and 83% said at least "to a small extent". I suppose it depends how much "to a small extent" maps to…
