    Playdate - that monochrome handheld with a crank

    sorry, i don't imagine you can do development on the device itself. i meant, you can develop for the device on another computer and upload your software there. it's a pretty low-spec processor... their advertisement is that "every device is a development kit"

    Playdate - that monochrome handheld with a crank

    news: https://play.date/update-oct/ TLDR: seems like linux is supported for development, each handheld can be get uploaded your custom software, no app-store to worry about (third-party installs ok); orders will open in 2021 due to delays. they're ordering enough for a first batch of 20,000

    some of the results of the zero tolerance policy from Trump -- as a parent, this just floors me. i can't believe i'm living in a world where people thought this was ok. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/immigration/lawyers-say-they-can-t-find-parents-545-migrant-children-n1244066

    @JDTAY vote like your life depends on it. don't listen to anyone who says otherwise... ACA is on the chopping block (conservative supreme court will likely strike it down, so no guarantees if you have preexisting conditions). also, goldman sachs did an analysis and figured we'd have a better...

    Covid-19 (Coronavirus) - Please stay safe, y'all

    i thought this was an interesting analysis: https://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2020/09/k-overlooked-variable-driving-pandemic/616548 tl;dr: ~20% of infected infect ~80% of next generation, trace back in time to find superspreaders and who else they could have infected. people used to be...

    Protecting the pyra

    this belongs in the politics thread, but gun death statistics in other countries show a different reality than the hypothetical reality you're painting. not against gun ownership, but america needs to learn from countries like Japan and Switzerland to prevent needless deaths...

    that and they're sewing the seeds to say the election was a sham. usually there's a "blue shift" of democratic mail-in ballots, so they want to try and stop the count as early as possible. https://choosedemocracy.us/prepare/#.X33RsWllBCU although i think the problem will be smaller now if...

    so all that physics was completely general, and applies to multiple finite-mass objects. with only a few tiny adjustments, i think it's looking like completely normal physics:

    the bug was that my collision boxes were getting out of sync with the physics positions (positions + deltaBoundary = collisionBoundary, and my physics engine was updating the collisionBoundary and velocities only, instead of backpropagating to the positions). no jump physics yet, but pressing...

    Keyboard layout [mechanical keyboards]

    @PowerGod -- the 6^ keys would be individually remappable, but i find that i sometimes use my right hand for that key, thus the duplication. @levi -- if Ctrl and Caps are the same size, you can remap them and swap the keycaps for your own perfect personalization. i also like the fact that i...

    Keyboard layout [mechanical keyboards]

    slight iteration -- of course with the split design both halves would be movable, so you could tilt them as desired. i have something like this (though i've remapped some keys since some of those keys suck), and i'm realizing how little width you need, space wise, to accurately hit space (with...
