This deck of cards has a bar code printed on the edge of each card. Scanning these bar codes would reveal where every card is (or isn't - if cards are missing.) Think card magic. 1/

Hey Dallas peeps - Iโ€™m in need of a reflow oven for a custom circuit board. Does anybody know where I can rent/borrow/use one? Iโ€™ve checked a couple marker spaces and an electronics rental shop, but no luck so far.

You may already know our Borderlands Science project has become one of the most successful citizen science projects of all time. To drive our future of using our platform for other public-good initiatives, today we announce our new charitable foundation, Gearbox Gives.โ€ฆ

I wanna share some neat numbers I use all the time and what I use them for. Starting with sqrt(0.5), 0.7071... The point on a circle at 45 degrees is at (r*hr, r*hr) where r=radius and hr=sqrt(0.5). To rotate 45 degrees, you can use this 2x2 matrix: mat2(hr, -hr, hr, hr)

A ridiculous number of years later, here's a third part to this series of articles on the making of a 64kB intro. This time: procedural mesh generation. ctrl-alt-test.fr/2023/proceduraโ€ฆ


This is a case of flawed logic. While this may sound reasonable, most accidents on freeways are caused by two vehicles going different speeds. Sure, a kinetic limit would reduce impact energy, but at the cost of increased accident rates.

Ok, hear me outโ€ฆ we should abolish speed limits on roads. But replace them with limits on kinetic energy. ยฝmvยฒ Half the weight means you are allowed to go โˆš2 times faster. Honda civic can go 50kph, bicycle 200kph, Ford pickup 30kph. All have same energy when colliding.

The first 6 stages of debugging: 1. That canโ€™t happen 2. That doesnโ€™t happen on my machine 3. That shouldnโ€™t happen 4. Why does that happen? 5. Oh I see 6. How did that ever work?


For me, it is puzzles. From Hanayama 3D metal puzzles to escape room boxes to a jigsaw puzzle made from a silver half-dollar. โ€œI may be glad to see you, but that is a puzzle in my pocket.โ€

According to Lakota social etiquette, simply listening (and not interrupting) is the greatest form of respect โ€” that we can ever hope to bestow.

There are a lot of great bands in this thread. Many I wish I had seen (especially Queen w/Freddy.) My answer is Pink Floyd. They were innovators for live performances, even if they didnโ€™t jump around and play the guitar with their teeth.
