Ooh good point, -- Update: Added!

I recently made an ASCII art web app: https://textmode.cadencecode.com/ ... I occasionally make dos games as a hobby, and I wanted to be able to draw some ASCII on my iPad. Kinda a…

Note that some classes exist (even if not in Spring, at least in base Java) http://imgur.com/sNk4mE2 The key thing to keep in mind with generative models based on real data is that…

Ugh I hate it when people make this claim or link this article. If you follow one more article link deep, they say implemented some of the earlier code that came out of it, code th…

Ehhh the public user base perhaps isn't really so important in foss fps games because these games are most often used as LAN games when not everyone owns the same collection of gam…

There are plenty of realistic applications for this! For example, controlling the reticle vs aim of a fps character, selecting units easily in an rts, selecting spells while lookin…

Here's some concrete suggestions: Instead of : " What is MindWallet? blahblahblah " Maybe something like: With MindWallet, you can socially or privately organize your plans and goa…

(Edit for the HN readers: This comment and following comments were posted in response to an earlier frontpage design.) I posted this on shacknews but to duplicate the discussion ov…

I don't like the naming choice, too close to Google Chrome Browser + WebKit

Ah, I'll bet you 10 dollars that we will!

You should look into h-pylori stool tests. My doctor didn't catch my problems until I had a stool test done. It could be a stomach bacteria.
