Why the fuck do we have to give out our personal information to any of these big companies if I can't trust that it will ever be safe-guarded? This is just so fucking insane to me to think these companies are just so big that they do

That just blew me away! I didn't think I was going to hear anything, but yeah, immediately it gave an almost pulse-width modulated high pitch tone. I'm not surprised, but it is also awesome. I'm so many years old yet I can st

I loved this book and have read it a few times now. I was probably 13 too! The movie was okay . It just left a lot of important scenes out. (Like all book->movie things)

I love all of your projects, Fabien! This SNES video analysis one is incredible. I've always had all of this stuff running around in my head for how to explain how weirdly cool video generation for NTSC is, and you have done an incredi

I guess considering their group is called the Physics-based Simulation Group [1], I'm thinking maybe that's just the terminology they've always used? Or maybe it's a German->English translation thing? [1] https:&#x2F

I was going to post the same thing. "What does this have to do with concurrent processes?!" :) It's a good problem to think about, and I hope most people consider it in their work.

Hey, that's okay! At least our taxes pay money towards investigating and building these toothless fines! I don't have a problem with the taxes, just that it doesn't do anything.

Sort of off topic, but I got stung by the "AKSHUALLY" bug. I just wanted to say that the term, "fanatic skepticism", isn't a possible outcome. Definitionally, skepticism clearly means you wouldn't be fanatic of

Wow, is that the only thing you got from my comment? I'm highlighting examples of why it's a serious problem and people need to think for themselves. We know what group-think does way beyond the experiment. We have a very well-d

That sounds dangerous as hell. No one should live that way. If you aren't allowed to question leadership and are instead expected to do "what you are told", then all the experiments and horrors studies on group think are a re

I loved the original and the sequel -- this new one is amazing. I'm really enjoying it! It's also nice being forced to play without a walkthrough since it's NEW NEW...

Still to this day (since it was released), I listen to the soundtrack. I love it so much. :) The game idea itself is so original too!

This looks awesome, nicely done! I'll have to try it out soon. :)

I've always enjoyed reading this book that espouses this same idea: Constructing Language Processors for Little Languages 1st Edition by Randy M. Kaplan [1]. It's no longer being produced, but used it's $6 or less. It's

Yeah agreed -- though that's what I meant about the zero flag: NOR instead of XOR combinatorial complexity, but same prop. delay critical path, only simpler circuits per bit if purely NMOS or PMOS! :) I think the 1970s Intel were doing

by beefok 4y ago
While I know you already know this, technically all of the flags have large prop. delay and nothing is for free. :D Computing any of them is equal amounts of delay if you want to mux/select any of them to output, and then on top of tha

This is a testament to how well Reed-Solomon encoding/decoding [1] can detect and correct errors! I remember even heavily scratched cd's would work if you cleaned them with toothpaste of all things (?) [2] This is unlike blowing a

I was a teen when Blitz3D came out (to be fair, there's actually a demo sample from the Blitz3D CD with my real name on it!) Seeing all of his work [1][2] in an open-source release is amazing to see. All I have to say is that Mark Sibl

The Discovery Institute's only purpose[1] is to push creationism into public education under the guise of 'Intelligent Design'. Of course they never specify 'what' or 'who' the 'designer' is, but

I've never used the cleaning stuff they are talking about that would damage the foam, but just in case, I've placed a filter[1] in the tubing. It actually makes breathing with it a bit harder -- which is kind of stupid of me to do

Yeah, my machine was up for replacement BEFORE this recall due to aging (7 years old.) I've been waiting forever for what Philips stated in the recall will be a 'refurbished' machine.

I meant more that I like the original Civ still to this day, but I also love Civ 4+ as well. They definitely streamlined it!

I feel the same way, but I also feel the same way about Civilization. I pop open a virtualbox + windows XP just to play Civ for windows edition.. Something I still really enjoy is Deadlock by Accolade, https://en.wikipedia.org&#x

Yeah and when it is calculated over the period of time it was dispensed, that is hilariously cheap. The defense budget for 2022 in USA is $768 billion for just one year . The budget for the entire development of the telescope was 1.351351%
