A lot of people here complain of RSI and comment how the pedal helps solve that. I tried solving this by creating a keyboard layout especially for vim: https://bitbucket.org/cheater/us_split . It's just like us qwerty, just more ergonomic.

The same reason why having a girlfriend that fucks you for your wallet makes it a nightmare. Sell-outs are never good work.

OK, I see the downvote brigade is in. Let's analyze this for a second. The resolution by the OS is ostensibly 1920x1200. This is what apps see and what they render bitmaps for. This is then upscaled twice in each direction to 3840x2400. The

I guess we've reached the nesting limit. The people in question are trying to hang sociology and group theory onto those theatre exercises. The "tutors" are, well, let's just say really odd. How can I find out more about those original thea

Wait a fucking second. Did you say theatre exercises? There's a group of people doing them theatre exercises, they rent a hall down the corridor from me periodically. I've always known there was something really fishy about them. Are you

Reminds me of my Mensa membership (hey, at 16 you're young and impressionable). Quit that ghetto a week into reading their mailing lists. Imagine the complete opposite of HN.

If I'm born into a millionaire family, I have more purchasing power than someone born into a poor family in Ukraine. This is a result of the genetic dice roll. Following your logic, does this mean Armani should start pricing their clothes a

Bear in mind the parent comment isn't saying that the two CRT questions are bad because they probe understanding of mathematics. Understanding of mathematics was presupposed in the objects under test. Everyone had it in them to answer the q

I don't have access to Kahneman's full paper to scrutinize (yet - I'm asking around) but it seems possible to me that they wanted to place themselves in opposition to the general practices of education at the time. Notice that since his wor

ITT: can the Need for Cognition Scale be used to weed through candidates for programming positions? Can it help identify candidates who have little experience but will make good programmers once they're taught how to code?

Oh alrighty then. If that includes high res 5-megapixel screens being chainable, then I'm all for a hdmi port on the other side. Flexibility's where it's at.

Given the absence of libraries which will follow Kotlin's philosophy of code structure, how does this improve anything? You could just use a simple subset of Java and not use any libs at all.

I made it because no one else had and I knew I'd get upvoted. Don't think I don't realize it's trite. It's just fodder for the masses.

Yeah, that sucks, but I don't think that you should need a special anti-bullying law to find out who the dicks are. It's just identity theft.

Er no, it upscales. When you put a 640x480 image through an old lcd that supports only 1024x768, then it needs to scale the original image up, hence it upscales. Same if you put a 1080p image into a retina display which has a much higher re
