It would be nifty if, when you squeeze the spine to flip it, that it played audio from the clip and maybe an audio message.

Let's just call miming physical switch travel and movement what it is: skeuomorphic animation And just like its design counterpoint, while some may enjoy the aesthetic, it's actually superfluous and we've mostly moved on. I g

Thank you for your reply. I'm usually skeptical of visual paradigms but I'm not trying to be critical. Looking at flow-based programming, it looks like it could help in visualizing and understanding asynchronous systems that would

Eh, I guess slapping some literal, variable, and operation nodes together makes it visual, but I don't think it makes it easier. Contrast with something like Scratch which is useful because it helps prevent typos, clearly presents expe

It's not about that. Open Source is more like a designation. It is an agreed upon set of requirements that, if you change a requirement, it is something else. This is important. Some things have legally protected designations such as &

JK Rowling exploiting workers is a straw man and sidesteps the point. To some people what I wrote will be a truism and to others it will beg the question. I see what side that fell on for you and that's good, I'm not citing anythi

It seems likely that the only way to become a billionaire is through worker exploitation, collusion, cheating the system through tax evation and asset laundering, etc. I think politico-economic interference is the crux of the problem. For e

Sounds like the tried and true way. I'm always interested in learning about computing history and the people that set up the groundwork. The more I read, the more I find that tech doesn't learn much from its past and we're ju

Hmmm, no I've never heard of this although I've used a similar offline doc reader called Zeal. I just checked it out and it looks cool but I don't think it's for me. I use a Firefox extension called Saka Key that allows

Ha, probably too true! Part of this question is in response to the feeling I have that when I'm coding, I'm not hyper focused, I'm constantly sidetracked by dipping down documentation and forum rabbit holes because many thing

Now that you mention it, I tried a program called Zeal on another machine which could also use the Dash Docs format (I'm linux based). I was thinking one would need to download offline copies of the most immediate tools documents but I

Awesome! Thank you for the article reference, it was great and along the lines of what I was thinking about when I asked my question. Even a novelist in the woods is only going to hack together a rough draft in the woods and then second dra
