You mean like the Voyager probes? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voyager_program Almost 50 years old now, and still sending data. What would I change about software development no…

Obviously, of course, a client would never _cheat_ or lie about an event. No, no, no. We can totally trust them.

You could try a hypertree https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbolic_tree but that's usually for acyclic data.

I find the killer feature to be the ability to pause games. Sure, I could do that on my PC, but since this whole Deck is dedicated to just running the game, and I can set it aside,…

There's always Wrigley's that went from offering gum as an incentive to buy soap to just selling the gum... "Make something people want" > In 1891, 29-year-old William Wrigley Jr. …

I'm a big fan of Loreo stereo lenses. They're well made and inexpensive. You can use stereo pairs to calculate depth, and in this case, you only lose half your horizontal resolutio…

I don't understand how refilling for $0.86 per wash is better than the $0.67 per wash if you use their cartridges? Or how that becomes "75 times cheaper". https://github.com/dekuNu…

I really enjoyed making combinations on the filters to see what (I thought) unlikely combinations existed, and I was happy with what I found (e.g. minimal organic, architecture fac…

What about https://aws.amazon.com/iot-device-management/ ?

I've been at a number of failed startups. Here are some of the things that hurt or eventually killed us. Note that these can apply to projects within large companies as well. YMMV.…

There is no vertical parallax, just horizontal.

It is not displaying on layers in the block. I have a 15" LookingGlass. The depth appears continuous, not in discrete layers. The field of view is, to me, very wide. I'm not trying…

Darn, now I'm going to have to go back and re-read Dune considering the worm as a metaphor for the surveillance state. Walk without rhythm!

I really liked _The Thoughts_ section. Before _The Thoughts_, this paragraph in _The Notepad_ caught my eye: > Honestly, I don’t consider the bad memory the younger generations hav…

I meant that I've wondered how much goes from the investors to the VCs (but then not back to the investors) via property rentals. I used "laundering" in the sense of "covering up w…

I've always imagined it was because the VCs bought the buildings they rent out to the startups, and probably the apartments as well. That makes the bay area a big money laundering …

The correct response should have been for credit card holders to sue their credit card companies. We have a relationship with the card companies, and they chose to share data with …

I disagree. A large part of public schooling relates to love/belonging and esteem. Go $mascots! Science fairs, glee club, language clubs. Learning to organize support for causes. L…

Make sure you include taxes in your "total cost." You will owe taxes this year on the difference between what you pay and the current valuation of the company. Even though your com…

Do you feel that Europeans have been "targeted"? https://gdpr-info.eu/recitals/no-23/

Why would it need to be compliant? Ycombinator is not a European company.

I started a company (LLC) to develop something I was trying to patent (utility patent). I kept things going as a side business for about 5 years while I worked a full time job, wra…

Oh, please start selling "fake" ads. Maybe for https://scarfolk.blogspot.com/ ? I would buy a spot! The fake social network with real fake ads!

I wish I could use OAuth or similar to give Google permission to index the papers and magazines I subscribe to. If I haven't OAuth'd and the paper requires a login, rank it lower. …
