I played a ton of Rocket League and I think there's some non-obvious benefits to Psyonix being acquired by Epic Games that boil down to "Psyonix can be more focused on the core gam…

I wonder if the same holds true for virtual reality. Does violence in VR result in an increase in violent behavior? I think the medium and experience is different enough - is anyon…

When the Chromebook Pixel is configured to run Linux through Crouton/chroot, it displays a warning on reboot and will automatically reflash the machine to stock ChromeOS without in…

Insane. That page loads in 111 network requests totaling about 40MB.

Is that the case? It looks like there's still confusion out there: * http://www.pcworld.com/article/2974057/windows/how-to-turn-o... * http://www.pcadvisor.co.uk/how-to/windows/how…

Isn't Unity's publish to web feature timebombed with Chrome? http://blogs.unity3d.com/2014/10/28/the-future-of-web-publis...

Some shameless promotion for a PR I worked on: If you're using the AMD features of TypeScript, support for named AMD modules also made it out in TypeScript 1.4. An example of the s…

I think it's safe to assume this also means the end of the Windows Phone/Android dual boot concept that has been floating around for a while: http://www.pcworld.com/article/2107863…
