KWC is a pretty fascinating place, but all I've ever seen about it is from people on the outside looking in. Are there any accounts from the people who lived there?
I cut my teeth on HyperCard and I'd say that the web (HTML, JavaScript) is a pretty good successor. Getting an image on a page and then linking between pages is quite satisfying when you're starting out. Something like…
It's pretty appalling the number of people in this thread trying to rationalize and justify slavery.
This is anecdotal, but my experience has been the opposite. I briefly switched to Chrome some years ago because everyone else was and the dev tools were genuinely better, but as a user it felt clunky and slow, so I…
I, like many others here, would love to have an EV. But in a world where people are being paid barely enough to eat, it's no wonder no one can afford premium EV prices. Make an affordable EV and people will buy it, that…
nope
> the ancient Greek thing whose name I forget with alternating directions on each line I believe the word you're looking for is "boustrophedon"
That definitely wasn't the impression I got back when I frequented it but I'm glad if they're more antiwar now.
Oh I fully agree, that's what I mean by that attitude becoming more mainstream. Just growing up I saw that expressed more fully on 4chan before I saw it being adopted elsewhere.
I used to love the 4chan-style contrarian attitude until, in high school people I knew were killed in Iraq. Then I started to realize that those kinds of nihilist attitudes have real-world consequences. Since then, that…
Cool! Anyone have resources on what has changed since then?
I highly recommend keepass + syncthing. Avoid some third party having access to your password store while keeping it backed up wherever you need it to be.
I still have this book on my shelf, it got me started programming as a youngin'. Good times!
I'm in my 30s and finally going to college and can confirm that many of my fellow students (most in their teens or early 20s) believe that .org domains are credible. I've pointed out that anyone can buy one for $10 so…
Maybe off the wall, but my first thought is certificate revocation. Could there be (or is there already) a semi-centralized database of research that should no longer be cited? With maybe a dependency graph of research…
As an aside, this page is great, I was able to watch the videos and see all the images without needing to enable javascript for half a dozen 3rd party URLs!
I don't want to sound snarky or overly skeptical, but I've seen a lot of people say that the trackpad under macOS is a lot nicer than that under linux, but I don't see what they mean. I have a ~6yo linux laptop as my…

They're clearly vying for a place next to vi. Or maybe the v language, depending on how you pronounce it.
> mounting a massive Plato's Cave-like conspiracy to convince people they are doing something useful Maybe I'm missing something but I feel like that's what most of us are doing now anyway.
I've been doing software development in a small midwestern town for ~10 years. Most people drink coffee, but only a handful that I've known take other stimulants. In my (completely anecdotal) experience, the people who…
Is there any kind of simulator that I could run on my classical hardware to get some experience programming with this kind of thing?
The wording made me think that there had been some kind of tragedy. Glad to see that it went well!
Very cool! I had an idea some time ago to create something like hyperpolyglot.org but for philosophic / religious ideas. Any plans on doing something similar?
If the new IE any good, I'd be willing to try it on my Linux box.
