D&D has too many rules. I invented a really light weight set of rules so that we can engage in more "role play" as opposed to RTS. It's more fun for the casual game and you don't w…

Turns out nobody is actually interested in transacting with crypto otherwise Nano would have been a winner. I also love Banano, a Nano fork where you mine by folding proteins. Work…

Maybe it can finally get the new lines correct for a given application? ;-)

The other option would be to rebase the currency such that a single penny was a meaningful unit of money again. One potential such way would be to issue new paper notes which repre…

Has a Mil ever been minted?

I have done it. It's actually quite thrilling, feeling that initial burst of acceleration.

> all purpose flour Use that one. It's flour, but like for all purposes. You can make cake with it fine.

That was one of the most romantic things I have ever read. And like most romantic things it was fundamentally flawed. Excellent prose though.

The comparison is not between hjkl, arrows and mouse movements. Vim motions are far richer than that.

Yes, this is true, but machine learning is but one aspect of artificial intelligence. There's also neural networks, and I reckon we might see some interesting stuff come out of Qua…

It would be hard to argue that DNA coding directly effects behaviour. DNA only determines how genes are expressed and proteins are built, where behaviour is an emergent phenomena -…

The sad truth is that most jobs can be replaced by "unthinking machines". This is what is actually happening.

You're just assuming that one set of optimisations are the most important for everyone in UI design. Good UI design doesn't state that it is always the case that people should be a…

> I really want to like vim > Also, why do I have to have a special mode to insert things? First and foremost Vim is a modal text editor. If you don't like that Vim is probably not…
