There's a discussion thread on the GitHub community discussion full of people saying this is the best feature on GitHub today. It's a shame GitHub never promoted it. At one point t…

I'm currently looking for somewhere to park some forwarded addresses since gandi decided to start making money. I don't see any mention of address forwarding on the website, is thi…

imagine... TTD applied to laws. Or take it a step further, write a test suite and automatically generate a range of possible laws that satisfy the tests.

This thread is like group therapy. On my current device I'd estimate ~100 chrome tabs open over 10 desktops. I try to keep them organized at least.

An even simpler universal approximator that the authors overlooked for some reason is just to use a very large hash map. There are some practical issues around generalization and s…

What I don't get is why the emphasis on sheet music as an image? I get that mapping from an auditory stream onto a score is an interesting problem, but isn't it naturally decoupled…

This is one of the best and most accessible pieces I've read about the underlying principles of how such systems work. https://engineering.linkedin.com/distributed-systems/log-wha.…

Sort of agree, though I'd say more important the number of monitors is resolution. I find anything less 2560x1440 results in increased cognitive load for window management.
