Here's a good take on why we share cats on the internet, including brain-control, by pbs' idea channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NJ_6aRjYR0w

Off-topic, but I had the opportunity to have several cuban PhDs teach some of the final classses in college (Multi-agent systems, computer intelligence, etc) ... All of them were i…

Hey! Just as a followup, in case you're still interested. We released a pro version that includes FPS and password protection

Looks interesting. Will check it out. Only 10 seconds though, right?

There will be, soon! We're tweaking it to get all the parts moving just right. Also... ...

The current build, secretly has Cmd+Shift+5

Pretty excited to finally see this going up :)...

Yes! The guy that made Max eventually made PureData (which is in the list). It's an awesome environment. Max (General) with MSP (Audio) and Jitter (Video) can do a lot of stuff, ev…

It's weird that I see many people complaining about tables because of pairs/ipairs or trivial stuff like that, which are more nuisances than anything. The flexibility of tables/met…

Updated with a JSPerf: http://jsperf.com/thulium-vs-underscore-and-ejs ... Tm runs faster in chrome/node... Underscore wins in firefox. So we'll need to get to work in optimizing s…

I'll try to do a /proper/ benchmark (Different cases, different types of templates, and such). Because the tests were with a simple template that had all the shared features. When …

I don't think so. I think the purpouse is to offer less: We don't even have built-in helpers or file loading mechanisms or caching. The philosophy is that we just do templating, we…

It's based on EJS. So it's indeed really similar to underscore. In fact, we benchmarked against underscore's template function and EJS and, at least in our templates, achieved bett…

We based it on EJS because we had a lot of views with EJS. But we needed a lot of performance (Our goal was to be faster than the underscore templating language). We also needed de…

Is that the sparrow logo in one of the screenshots? ...

In a very creepy aspect of this. I closed my account a while ago, and I opened a dummy one with another email, because I still needed to mod a few communities. The recommendations …

Well, in discourse it's more convention than anything. But the first category created, is a `meta` category. But this explains it better: http://meta.discourse.org/t/what-is-meta/5…

Kind of an aside, but still relevant to part of your post. Whining about the content and whining about the meta whining is part of any sufficiently old community. I can recall from…

Not only that, they went a step forward and made downloads even more appealing by allowing you to download the minimum possible to play the game, and just do the rest while you pla…

Or, the ranking algorithm was previously designed for this not to have an impact, and as real-world usage showed abuse, they changed it. Repeat this cycle until now. So the techniq…
