I'm not quite a hacker, more of a programming nerd. Actually, I'm a technical writer who "translates" text from "programmer language" to "plain english", if you know what I mean. Hit me up at eslachance@gmail.com !

    In the dev environment we had custom videos uploaded, and I often uploaded my own. Nice kittens and puppy videos and such. Still, the mindgeek office life was mostly the same as an…

    I've worked for Mindgeek in the past (left 2 years ago) and still had friends working there. Many dozens of employees were locked out of their accounts this morning, none of them k…

    I'm not sure if anything changed in a day, but I'm not getting that result at all (in fact, I'm not getting a "did you mean Chrome" either). The latter isn't explainable by me, but…

    That's nice misinformation, mate. Discord makes money from Nitro, and they started off with a fairly large investor cushion which grew since launch. There is nothing in the ToS tha…

    Ironically, one of the reasons I'm extremely happy with my current bank is that it lets me save my password through Chrome on its online banking. Yes, I know that's no super secure…

    The way I see it, it's essentially because of frameworks and engines. For example in games, I've seen simple isometric games with very little graphic intensity build with huge game…

    About the last point about generating content, I think it's extremely likely that this leads us down the path of Voxels and Procedural Generation. Both those techniques together wo…

    There are already... kind of. the Terrafugia and the Pal-V are both flying cars, though not very sexy I'll admit.

    Personally I'm more than a little annoyed at their journal-type "quotes", especially because they put the quote directly under the paragraph they just quoted, so you're basically j…

    I foresee how the FPS aspect could come into play when dealing with pirates or aliens boarding the ship, for example. I hope he keeps that aspect of the game.

    I'm very happy to see that those who got the games were able to keep them. The conspiracy theorist in me thinks that maybe this was a marketing stunt, but Occam's Razor tells me it…

    I'll confirm that this seems to be a case of people not knowing what the hell they did years ago... I looked at everything I had in my timeline, and there are only posts from peopl…
