First learned about this on a highly-recommended episode of 99% Invisible: https://99percentinvisible.org/episode/vox-ex-machina/

"If debugging is the art of finding bugs, programming must be the art of creating them."

It is a legit Apple app, released alongside iOS 12. Apple bought the app called Workflow which they've made their own, rebranding it to Shortcuts.

What you’re wanting is CS 503!
Edit: Purdue’s CS 503.

Awesome! True the returns wont be in money, but they'll be in GAINS.

Just an obvious heads up, this is NSFW.

I read this "robot-fun farm" and was very intrigued, haha.
belltyler | 10 years ago | on: Twitter, to Save Itself, Must Scale Back World-Swallowing Ambitions
Obviously they could add it - it wouldn't be hard. Just because it doesn't have feature X doesn't mean it's bad. At that point it's a conscious decision to exclude that feature. Poor performing mobile sites? That is something they could for sure address, especially with the engineering power they have, I agree.
belltyler | 10 years ago | on: Twitter, to Save Itself, Must Scale Back World-Swallowing Ambitions
Twitter's been around for 10 years—and maybe it's just my perception—but I feel like the tech. media has never done anything but hate on them. It's well-founded criticism at times, sure, but at what point does it become a loop of negative attitudes simply based on pre-existing negative attitudes? That's just my take on the whole thing. I personally have some confidence in Twitter and have nothing poor to say about their product / direction.

I took a very similar sounding course at Purdue (CS 503) and would second all of these sentiments.
belltyler | 10 years ago | on: XINU OS – Xinu Is Not Unix
I took the CS OS grad. course at Purdue last semester that taught OS principles using XINU. Overall, I think the OS is great. Used primarily for embedded systems (routers were the common example) it was simple, quite extensible and fun to learn.

I came here to post the same thing - an awesome listen.
belltyler | 10 years ago | on: No, you're not 'running late', you're rude and selfish
I am enjoying the comments of people making counter-arguments to this post as they're probably the ones this article is directed towards.
Generic Example: "I'm not late to the morning meeting, I just not a morning person." No, sorry, you're still late.

It seems like board is kept as a grid and merely represented with three.js; look into the page's source and you'll see a GameBoard object as well as its logic.

If it seems super blurry, that's by design. I wanted to make it seem like you were viewing it from the 'depths of space' if you will. ;)
