Same. Love calculators and used to flirt with the idea of buying an old HP graphing but the app scratches that itch. Once you learn RPN it just feels so natural.

Have always felt conflicted about these policies. Real life works this way but somehow seeing people escorted to the front of the line violates the rules of having a line.

The article doesn't mention it but there was also Newton Script. Was a language for the Newton that looked like javascript with sharable top-level PDA objects for contacts, notes, handwriting, etc.

Haha, no. Half Life Alyx, The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners, Thrill of the Fight, Beat Saber, Audica, Dance Central VR, Fallout 4 VR, Superhot VR, and so many more.

Also failing to provide reasonable customer support for their successful projects worsens my trust in future projects.

Curious what course you took and if you have time, a summary of the most valuable skills you learned?

Dell was the first pc retailer to earn my personal ban after showing their shady business practices followed quickly by Newegg a few months later. Life has been better ever since.

Been using the Advantage for decades. Splitting the two sides is a terrific idea. Always wanted to mount a split keyboard to the sides of a zero-gravity chair so will try it out with this. Two features I wished they would offer: 1. A nub-mo

The first job is the hardest, nothing to be ashamed about. Maybe start by observing what skills are in high demand in your area and fill that need. I started by taking lots of small contracts that were 'beneath' my skills like htm

I thought where you were going with this is that since smartphones are so ubiquitous any sort of AR system should utilize the phone for its primary processing. A headset is needed though for AR, it just has to be much smaller and lighter be

Yes, note to the Mozilla team: Nobody uses Viveport except new users who are tricked. Publish on Steam if you want to reach Vive users.

This really captures many of the differences. I'll just add that though we have more content creators today the motivation is what's really changed so much. Back then it was harder to share your own content, either by learning HTM

Yeah the article starts with "To understand just how unaffordable owning a home can be in American cities today, look at the case of a teacher in San Francisco seeking his or her first house." You could just as easily write how no

Same with my 2007 MBP. They did eventually replace the motherboard based on the recall but afterwords the DVD player didn't read consistently (but didn't notice till months later) and one of the speakers went out. Also stopped usi

People say this but look at the online passesEA started then finally got rid up due to overwhelming negative feedback. Absolutely boycott publishers you feel are harming the industry. It takes time but it does work. Besides, there's so

To block news sources in Google News go to Settings > Sources and add the domain to the Block section. Used to have to add the source, then slide the frequency slider down to 0. Looks like Google automatically moved them to blocked. Bett

I enjoy experimenting with IoT boards but have never understood the pricing of Intel's offerings. Joule, Galileo, & Edison were many times the price of their ARM brethren. The only reason to pay so much was if you were stuck in Win

If they are less than 10yrs, look into Alice: http://www.alice.org/index.php . Teaches fundamental building blocks while they play with scene creation. Have used it for several classes and each one was outstanding. My favori

I pre-paid for 3 years of service but 1 year in they sent notification that the server farm would moved and I had 30 days to relocate my servers. Was pretty busy at the time so was an inconvenience to move everything, but I did. Then I get

Gwen was one of the best journalists to ever live. One of the best compliments is after all these years I still can't be 100% sure I know what Gwen thinks about various issues. It's an amazing achievement that she could be so obje

That's right. The main reason for the drop in 3D printer prices is a key patent expiring in 2009. That's when the revolution began for those not already in manufacturing.

The strategic view is not hard to understand. They got their clock cleaned on the server side. They are irrelevant in the IoT. Machine learning, docker, apache spark run best on linux. The direct-x gaming advantage will erode as Vulkan ope

So true. It's easy to forget one of Apple's greatest accomplishments is breaking the telecom industries stranglehold as mobile software gatekeepers. Telecoms along with cable are still two of the biggest impediments to technology
