I loved the pace.

Did you create that in realtime, or was it put together then spoken over?

Was a really great presentation.

This was talked about in the /r/math a while back.

We should let the porn industry be in charge of distributing papers, that was my conclusion.

Why does my mind think of a super soaker filed with light slippery oil?

OR even fake hand holds made of sponge material saturated with wd-40.

The drivers console looks about right, so does the rear view mirror.

Reddit mobile night mode. by hero0fwarin ideasfortheadmins

There is an app in the market called "Screen filter" that is great for doing this across the entire phone.

Works especially great for an AMOLED (samsung) screen that are bright, and do not dim low enough.

It puts an alpha filter into the display output to shade the too white reddit display.

This one time somebody I know had her window rolled down while her car was parked at work. The area was remote and chickens got into her car from a next door redneck establishment.... her co-workers had warned about chickens laying eggs in car so it was kinda funny.

Don't Fall in Love With Your Technology by hamburglaarin programming

[–]masta 2 points3 points ago* 

Watching my wife's fingers fly around ths keyboard in Emacs is really interesting to me and quite alien

I use vi and the instincts to do things are, well... Instincts. Not so sure it's a technology love, just bad habit.

As far as the greater aspect of technology bias, well that is hunan nature I guess. It would be nice to image people being able to rise above our own prejudices about tech.

Reading the OP the part about fourth really struck me as a person who used to dabble in fourth years ago, most people don't use it for any useful project. It's way to mind numbing, and far more interesting as a language implementation compared to C and Smalltalk and all the other langs that came about in the golden 80's. Fourth was great for embeding so thestuff about minimizing fourth has become legondary in how to make the ultimate obfuscated code.

the one nice thing about traveling with a small child is bypass the DFW scanners.

In other news ego centric hot bitches think the world revolves around their tits.

In other other news, the world does indeed revolve around a great set of tits.

Looks like a yellow light for the perpendicular, so about to go green any second.

Any guess on the make/model? Kinda looks like jeep grand cherokee.

Also kinda looks like some kind of video conference software, could that be a picture of the drivers face?

I've linked him this thread, maybe he will respond himself.

Dear Internet Vigilantes and Lynch Mobs by mastain WTF

[–]masta[S] -11 points-10 points ago

Nope, My excuse is the link I provided in the OP. YOU are the only one who has mention the TOS.

Dear Internet Vigilantes and Lynch Mobs by mastain WTF

[–]masta[S] -14 points-13 points ago

But I don't have to prove anything, and at the same time I Have proved my point.

I've linked to the admin stating clearly that Reddit is not a vehicle for vigilantes.

The admins say it's so, it's their site.

I say it's so, I created /r/WTF.
