I like the Odin language because it is really joyful to programming with it. Hope there are more resources and mature packages besides gaming development.

AFAIK, the digital interface of the physical layer (PHY) of the Ethernet stack are pretty much standardized (MII/RMII/GMII/RGMII). Most SOCs implement their own MAC layer, but are …

This scenario scare the hell out of me. Is injecting/intercepting brain signals directly really the way forward? Do we really want to create monster human species? IMHO, future AI …

Co-founders or not, the underlining reasons are alike for people (entities) with different personalities (characteristics) working together. Only one person in charge will always d…

I actually think AlphaGo is a perfect example of Human-machine cooperation. Deep neural network is the easier part, the intuition and architecture design by Humans are the most cri…

Why not patch against the latest stable version?

After the IEEE $25 monthly service came out, I subscribed for three years until finally canceled it. Honestly most of the papers I downloaded were junks, the only reason I download…

I think this is a bad idea. Now imaging a new channel for all sorts of fake BSODs and out-of-band malicious links in the shown QR codes.

How's it compared to superfluid vacuum theory? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superfluid_vacuum_theory

Kudos to the ReactOS team. I've tried the 0.3.x release about ten years ago and was a little disappointed. However, after a decade I've got a new perspective to appreciate their wo…

So, Jessica is the Socrates for YC, and YC is the Socrates for YC start-ups. Successful founders are usually doers that often make bold adventures and can execute plans efficiently…

Speaking of listening test, I would recommended the following website for the interested: http://www.klippel.de/listeningtest/lt/ A couple of years ago, we asked our colleagues to …

I hope the idea of progressive downloading partials can be applied to other files types as well. For example, if commonly used libraries such as minified Javascript source files ar…

A good read and helpful list. Could you add the pricing model and notes? It seems to me that the pricing infos are always hidden somewhere and very hard to find out until you actua…

Collecting everything would never be the optimum strategy and apparently the least meaningful one economically. For the unexpected extra values from history data, the possibility t…

It's been a trend for years that we'll have more general purpose CPUs augmented with specialized hardware acceleration units in one single unit, e.g., * Intel/AMD CPUs merged with …

Powerful speakers seldom use slides, ordinary people like me rely on PowerPoint slides to get the job done badly , when not having a strong compelling case :) The fundamental reaso…

Yes. And you'll know more and save more time for better things.

Being kind also mean being more open-minded. I visit HN not to argue about the right or wrong, but to get more informed and educated. The more you know, the more you'll be humble a…

+1 "Programming is way more art than science" :)

Yeah I know, we can easily fix the codes with tools, we also have tools for conversion between Python 2 and 3, right? However, we can not easily fix the way people writing the code…

Comments are just comments, we should not keep adding keywords and syntax to them. Go's backward compatible promise is hurting itself. By sticking with strict compatibility mode, a…
