the Huygens algorithm is also worth a look

Don’t forget about The 13th Floor, also from 1999.

Can you give some examples of how elixir is too clever? It’s been a breath of explicit fresh air for me…

I’d imagine that’s an application of a rule, whereas an exploit is a violation of a rule that allows for (a && !a) or some such inconsistency.

Jeff Lowenfel’s “Teaming With Microbes” is a fantastic introduction to the soil food web and its implications for organic no-till farming. Highly Recommend.

Honestly though, bless Kyle for truly being himself on the internet.

perhaps a lack of consistency would have resulted in a universe incompatible with life, so there’d be nobody around to ask the question?

for the purposes of this conversation, that’s a distinction without a difference

We (Frame.io/Adobe) are all-in on Elixir, and we're hiring!

You might be interested in Partisan's fault injector. I don't know if @cmeiklejohn is still working on it, but it's really cool nonetheless.

that’s the scuttlebutt.

So is Urbit a piece of performance art, or is it software that does a useful thing?

and also because high partial-pressure oxygen is quite toxic. :)

I don't think it's exactly connected to the kickstarter, but in this[1] interview with James from May, he talks about how he's currently working on the K-Web[2].

How often is the best earth-facing satellite imagery updated?

It'd be really cool to sic handwriting recognition on it to continuously look for "SOS".

Do you think Stephen Hawking would have survived the virus if this had happened ten years ago?

Surely you're not suggesting that he should have been selected out.

Suddenly bringing up a deep water fish would make it explode. every 33ft up the volume of air doubles.

I could be missing something, but I don't think this is quite correct.

Coming up from the first 33ft (10 meters) of depth, the pressure would go from two bars to one, or half, so the volume would double.

But any deeper, the ratio of pressure between the current depth and ten meters shallower isn't double, it's n/(n - 1).

Not so, Segregated Witness adoption pushed it from $4 to about $15.

Drop me a line if you encounter any issues. :)

Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.

When I built something like this, I used http://wkhtmltopdf.org and http://pdiff.sourceforge.net.

The Task module is great for this kind of thing, too. http://elixir-lang.org/docs/v1.0/elixir/Task.html

  [
      add: fn() -> 1+2 end,
    hang1: fn() -> :timer.sleep(1000) end,
    hang2: fn() -> :timer.sleep(5000) end
  ]
  |> Enum.map(fn {k, t} ->
    {k, Task.async(t)}
  end)
  |> Enum.map(fn {k, t} ->
    {k, Task.await(t, :infinity)}
  end)

This is complete bullshit, I have first-hand experience with this.

The FBI showed up with two black SUVs and one local police car.

They were all in plain clothes except for the single uniformed police officer.

There was no SWAT team (in my case).

Do you just work out of the IAC office or are you owned by IAC?

If your extremities' temperature is cooler than the ambient temperature, maybe all you need is a version with the heat-collection plates flipped?

You might try a compressed filesystem using ZFS.

How different is this to AVFoundation's stabilization?

There's an example of it in action here, but it requires a login: https://developer.apple.com/videos/wwdc/2012/?include=520#52...

This is something I actually know a lot about, being his roommate and friend. The only way we can even vaguely have a conversation with him is through our respective FBI contacts. You have no clue how sequestered he is.

Moving to a decently liberal area doesn't change anything, if there's some crazy that wants you dead, they'll do a lot to make it happen.
