200loc/h, it's 4-5 weeks of work for a single person
many of my friends are activists, and i'm hesitant to disclose to them which technologies they could use. 95% chance they're going to use it for getting drugs, or avoid monitoring to organize gatherings, which, without…

Yeah, I don't think it's about the data storage, as much as the possibility of backdooring your phone by a rogue state.
i ran analysis on our codebase, most of the files had 40% rewrites, with some outliers being 90% rewritten. the file sizes followed linear distribution, usually from 100 to 2000 lines of code. when the 90% rewrite hit a…
occasionally, like 2-3 days straight after a longer break from the practice, to tune in, or at random, to gauge how consistently i can clear my head the main selling point for me was the api, and possibility of using it…
>Meditation can be tough to learn, but you only have to do it once it is hard to learn. been to a 10 day vipassana retreat this year, and out of 100 hours of sitting, i've spent maybe 5-10 truly concentrated, and we're…
the central planned economy just ground to a halt
"the proof is left as an exercise to the reader"
may have something to do with the way population interacts with the police like i feel totally safe around the cops, but at the same time i realize the "am i being detained" attitute would put me on a fasttrack to the…

>8-channel Cyton system that's the interesting bit, because they got the results on a portable, consumer-grade device
Technically, they're wrapping a native library, so it's possible to create a benchmark where there's no performance gap whatsoever. The bottleneck is at the intersection of the runtime enviroment with the library, which…
Yeah, nice assets can really make a difference, the thing is you can pull twice as much polygons in the same scene with Unreal Engine (oversimplyfing) http://dcgi.felk.cvut.cz/projects/pacman-benchmark/thesis-co...
The main advantage of using Unity is its out of the box support for multiple platforms, and garbage collected runtime, other than that it's slower, and graphics are on the ok-ish side (the best looking Unity game i've…

It creates power in the advice-seeker by making the advice-giver invested. It can serve as an indicator of ongoing dynamics. If used to gain power, it's going to blow up in your face. From the psychoanalytic point of…

At the beginning of the 20th century something around 40% American cars was electric, same with 20% of the Berlin taxis. There's a wonderful book "The Shock of the Old" about the meandering ways innovation takes.…
Trailing backslashes are so ugly
log periodic models predicted the end of the s&p 500 bubble somewhere at 2015, and it's still exceeding the exponential growth (can't find a source, saw it somewhere)
looks a lot like "ends ways means" approach http://www.dtic.mil/dtic/tr/fulltext/u2/a222381.pdf
Aaand it even has the latency calibration at the beginning
my favorite insight about balancing putting in the hours vs deliberate practice comes from a Super Hexagon tutorial: the moment it starts to feel like grinding, you should stop.
