    This brought out an audible chuckle from me. Definitely stealing this and sharing this site with a few co-workers who are heavily into manga/anime. Thanks for the laugh.

    You're not far off. Anecdotal but I shared the Anthropic demo video and a few articles in a company slack and a lot of PM's/admin folks that are only tangentially aware of LLM powe…

    Very cute and charming, random offensive content from anonymous users not withstanding. I was pleasantly surprised that zooming with the browser works relatively well to help make …

    Hatchet was one of my favorite books growing up. I believe the first time I read it I was in 4th grade if that helps you gage (it was pretty common in 4th and 5th grades if I recal…

    Refreshing the page consistently is amusing. Next feature might be to add a slider and animate the degradation over time for each visit like a time lapse!

    I've only heard it used as a synonym to "jittery" or hyper-active in my region of the states (mid-west). Good to know it's considered offensive in places, not that I really use the…

    Was going to post the same. I can't go a week without listening to Bill, Chick or Hiromi at some point. There is a YouTube video of dualing pianos with Chick and Hiromi, it's one o…

    I mostly agree but I also think AWS is probably more in the public consciousness than most people would think (in the US anyway). They have TV advertisement slots with NFL for cryi…

    This is the first thing that came to my mind reading the headline as well. I'm sure Apple has a head start on R&D and of course they are an amazing organization with plenty of reso…

    To be fair, Red Dead has it's fair share of bugs as well, especially on release. I agree with you in that I don't think I've ever played a large open world game that didn't have a …

    Great article, generating consistent design docs that are both useful and not too time-consuming to create is something I am constantly working on. One thing I struggle with is fin…

    "...20 tons of fuel per hour..." holy cow. Pretty impressive statistics all around, apparently the A380 uses closer to 12.5 tons per hour to put it in perspective.

    Casio comes to mind when coming up with EL devices for example. The classic G-shock I have on my wrist right now touts a "Electro Luminescent Backlight", though I rarely use the li…

    Thanks for mentioning this. R-Type is one of my all time favorites, can't wait to give it a read.
