Re:Show HN: I Am Making an 8-Bit CPU in Logisim on Friday March 10, 2017 @08:59AM (#13838580)
I plan to KISS it as much as possible. The goal is to learn the basics. Maybe after that do more cool stuff in some HDL. Maybe even buy a FPGA :)

I am a further into the development of the CPU then I show in the blog, as such I do have ISA already, but it's constantly changing. The control bus though, is final I think.

I haven't yet finished this book, but this is very good book imo. Can recommend.
I know Blender is not a renderer, but they include 3 renderers in the package: Bledner Internal, Cycles and, Blender Game (This one is Real-Time though).
Re:Appleseed – open-source physically-based rendering engine on Saturday February 04, 2017 @12:54PM (#13568011)
It's all cool and awesome, but why put all those resources into new renderer, when one could contribute to Blender and such, which are way more mature?

With any luck, that won't be an issue for a long time considering self-driving cars are on their way.

Is this better than this: https://ssl.masterpasswordapp.com/ ?
Already replied to a similar question:

> I need to read all websites you visit, to check them against your blocked list. I do not save any data outside of local storage on chrome. In fact I am pro-privacy, so I opted out of using chrome.sync, to sync the data between Chromes on different devices. Because it's 3rd party cloud.

I would love to make one like that. But idk how to make it work on the system level. Would I need root access?
You could say I planned it that way to show it to core audience. Or you could say I am just a reader of HN and decided to show it here :P
It allows it till last tab with that domain is closed. Upon that it should stop allowing it.
I'll look into porting it over. Thanks!
Statistics are actually a planned feature. I decided to ship before I made it. It's going to happen at some point :P
Wildcards! Yes you're right, would be extremely useful. Will look into it!
This is very cool idea! Does your balance shrink in time, so you can "teach" yourself to spend less and less time on the distracting stuff rather than working?
Thanks for the question, developer here.

I need to read all websites you visit, to check them against your blocked list. I do not save any data outside of local storage on chrome. In fact I am pro-privacy, so I opted out of using chrome.sync, to sync the data between Chromes on different devices. Because it's 3rd party cloud.

Since I made this extension open-source, you can check if my claims are true here: https://bitbucket.org/redpandaua/distractoff

> a list in vim

I love your style though.

My Thesis project needs to be started ASAP. But this was fun learning experience.
Ah yes, they all use same engine as Chrome, yes? Thanks for the heads up!
Thanks for the feedback. Great idea, wrote it down.
I noticed I can visit same websites (twitter, reddit, HN) few times in the span of 5 minutes. And I don't usually even notice that, it's like a habit. To help me break the loop I made this extension.

It only has basic functionality right now, and I want to add some form of statistics, and maybe more in depth personalization tools.

Apart from that, I also plan to port it at least to Firefox, but may look into Edge and Opera.

Would love your feedback, thanks!

Why buy that, when there is open-source and free https://ssl.masterpasswordapp.com/
So you're saying experience doesn't matter. We just need people who use whatever trendy frameworks this month?

Sounds about right. /s

Re:Let's Build a Simple Interpreter, Part 1 (2015) on Monday September 12, 2016 @06:18AM (#12478447)
Wait a second, I thought .NET is interpreted? I mean take C#. Isn't it compiled to IL and then run on CLR VM? And has JIT to speed it up?

EDIT: spelling

Re:A FreeBSD 10 Desktop How-To on Saturday August 27, 2016 @06:27AM (#12371791)
Awesome, thanks for posting. Been a while since I wanted to try any BSD but never got my hands around it. Might just put in into VM and play around. Just like I started with Linux.

So I am not alone! Thought this was a satire of sorts at first.
"Moxie and Spunk" sounds like a great garage band name.
Re:Bash on Ubuntu on Windows on Thursday April 07, 2016 @05:40AM (#11445996)
May I ask you why you don't like it? As a new-ish Linux convert, I'd like to see your point of view as someone who used it for a while.
Re:Bash on Ubuntu on Windows on Thursday April 07, 2016 @05:35AM (#11445978)
I am a new-ish Linux user. Can someone explain to me why systemd is so bad? Is it because it monopolized so many features? So it's not UNIX way of tiny programs working together? I feel like I am missing something.
