AND we get increased monthly bills to pay for the cost of their fuckups.

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 …

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 als…

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 vid…

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->Englis…

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 me…

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 …

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 experiment…

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 p…

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 pur…

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 m…

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 toothpa…

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…

It's not paranoia when foreign adversaries actually DO attack national security.

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 'de…
