Xbox-type controllers have the left stick where the dpads are. PS-type controllers are symmetric. I, too, agree that the symmetric layout is the correct one.

When did Udacity fell off the MOOC discourse? That's my first experience with MOOCs; have fond memories learning robotics with Sebastian Thrun there. I used to prefer its short les…

American is in the title, but really, it's saying every English-speaker is at least bilingual. If you're already n-lingual with English as one of them, you can bump it to n+1 :)

Who came up with this term? There's no reverse in that definition. I'd expect a reverse acquihire to be something like windsurf getting Google people and absorbing google. Maybe so…

What nostalgia!I haven't played any since one of the early 3DS ones. And there's an incoming one for the switch too!

The Chevaline! It's probably possible to build The Primer, and the John Zaibatsu doesn't seem very outlandish too. But guys, that book wasn't a manual.

This is the first time I hear about "metric mega", and I hang out a lot here, where Americans use their units without explanation.

Rust-sharp? That's tetanus.

It's funny. Le Chat's gaslighting me in French. Claims Mistral develops ChatGPT when answering in French, but OpenAI when in English. For your amusement too: https://imgur.com/EgmQ…

I use a more simplistic solution: I bind a keyboard shortcut to uBO's element zapper so I can just zap sticky headers as I find them. I have to zap for every repeat visit, but the …

The Concent of Saunt Leibniz. We can try turning old monasteries into concents à la Neal Stephenson's Anathem. People can go for a year in a unarian math to just study. Maybe a fou…

There are a few more photos of the ship in the French page.

That's strange, my edition doesn't have appendices. Thanks for the page though.

I'm about 2/3 into the book, the idea is convincing, but did he put any example checklist in the book? He referred to many extant checklists, but there is no "Figure 1: a bad check…

It was an extension until Quantum. Then there was a vacuum for some time. The closest I can find today is this one: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/addon/simple-tab-gr...

His is an interesting take on vampire lore in sci-fi. I remember they also have drugs to mitigate this condition, and allow them to live in cities: the anti-euclidean, or auntie-e.…
