duke360··on My son (9 yrs old) used plain JavaScript to make a game, and wants your feedback
I can't belive it, graphic is too good for 9yo very nice!
duke360··on Methodology is bullshit: principles for product velocity
at least part of it smells like bullshits
duke360··on Pause Giant AI Experiments: An Open Letter
...Or rather allow development of much larger AI but regulate the usage in critical situation (politics, health, environment, etc..) in a way that it is evaluable for human to take in consideration of the pros and cons of the effect of the _proposed advice_? The risk is that of having unaware insects (us), who blindly adopt unfathomable reasoning for our mind, and take them as consolidated decisions, without knowing where they lead and _how_.
duke360··on A circuit simulator that doesn't look like it was made in 2003
WHAAAATT??
duke360··on Windows Timer Resolution: The Great Rule Change
i've always tought that Sleep(n) means Sleep at least n... not Sleep around, or Sleep exactly n, what i'm missing here?
duke360··on WebWormHole: Send files quickly using WebRTC
it happily loops forever tranferring an empty file :D
duke360··on Ready for changes with Hexagonal Architecture
cool... but it is not hexagonal, it is almost quadrilateral :D :D
duke360··on Pizza Effect
sorry for the scarcity of intelligence of this comment but ... LOL
duke360··on Let's remove quaternions from every 3D engine (2018)
quaternions (<3) are extremely useful and not so hard to learn as other have pointed out. it's just a matter of lazyness and intesrest in solving a problem
duke360··on Not everyone has an internal monologue
Wut? not anybody can? explosion sound (in my head of course...)
duke360··on Leonard Kleinrock on what went wrong with the internet
Strongly agree with the idea that nowadays internet is become very bad. But i strongly disagree with the idea that governments should do something.

Politicians usually doesn't have enough technical background to do anything useful here. They do very little in the "real" world to make it a better place to live, why they should succeed in the "virtual" one?

Internet user should take care of internet with new trust mechanisms, Operative systems should help users taking care of their data. People should return nice and polite.

Netiquette (the hard one of the early '90) should be applied and respected.

duke360··on Building a Lightroom PC
very nice and informative... i also think you like to write a lot :D
duke360··on Nano ID: A tiny, secure URL-friendly unique string ID generator for JavaScript
tilde (~) doesn't looks a wise choice to me as may have special meaning in certain context, fortunately the alphabet are redefinible. i would also prefer if at least some part fo the nanoid would be machine dependent. anyway, it works :)
duke360··on How Not to Encrypt a File – Courtesy of Microsoft
probably you are too youn, in the past when internet wasn't so ubiquitus, having a MSDN cd documentation was a live saver. the docs that today have serius content directly descend from that days, the res, as other already said, are just boilerplate autogenerated docs., which nobody maintains anymore because simply the technology is too fast. so probably this doc page abaut usage of DES is directly from 1990 or so... and in that days probably was good enough
duke360··on European Commission fines Google €2.42B for abusing dominance
while i disagree with EU and i think that goole has full right of sort things inthe way it wants, i also recognize that the "don't be evil" motto are just bullshits

google has the bad habit to sell itself as the saviour, while it is just making its own interests like anyone else... do not hide google...

duke360··on Why is the Internet so Slow?
it it really interesting but simply "ignore the technical challenge for now" makes the Whole discussussion pointless, as the problem here ARE the technical challenges that a zero latency (above the theoretical limit) network implies... Anyway it is good to know the numbers: in my opinion a 37x factor, in this case is not so bad
duke360··on Show HN: Sudo for Windows
i would call it "what's right with powershell" instead
duke360··on Fireflies
this is pure genius! i love fireflies!
duke360··on Microsoft will make the most from WannaCry
totally agree
duke360··on Fixing a bug in “Airwolf” code from 1984 [video]
they hit one of the two major problems in informatics... :D the number 3 in particular :D
duke360··on Ask HN: How many are 30+ years and still active programmers?
i'm 37, I still code (for my side projects) but less than i was used to few years ago, i'm not married, i have no child / pets, but i live with my GF (since 3 years) i'm talking about coding in my free time, not on "work hour"

i think if you add child to the equation the code time drop rapidly to zero

duke360··on Root – Programmable bank account for software developers
i think this is great! i want an account there!
duke360··on Vue Loop – Infinite scrolling
just a little heads up: it looks shitty on a logitech free-wheeled mouse
duke360··on MoveTo – A lightweight scroll animation JS library without any dependency
very nice also the "scroll up" looks to be more resiliant to "mouse scroll wheel" interference while auto-scrolling, while "scroll up" behave a little differently at least on edge, i dont know why, anyway it is very beauty
duke360··on How to never complete anything
same problem here but slightly different solution i impose myself to not start another thing until the previous is done. doesn't matter how long it takes but i cannot do another thing until the previous is not ready i know this will bring me to 10-year-long side projects...
duke360··on WordPress on .NET
<3 this! any idea on when it will be production-ready?
duke360··on Txt.fyi
https://txt.fyi/+/33ffa358/
duke360··on 3D Comics
wow, beauty! Not even the idea and the implementation, but also the very short story, it somehow reminds me Delphine's Another World
duke360··on Facebook accepts slightly mis-typed passwords
password is not case insensitive, it looks to me that they store 4 password version (one for each variant) so they check both 4 in parallel to see if there is a match, it is not bad, it will be worst if they have the password in clear and they see if the inputted one match the stored one in one of the 4 variants (calculated on the fly) that will be bad because means that the password are in clear text somewhere :(
duke360··on Moderators who had to view child abuse content sue Microsoft, claiming PTSD
yep, seen the first pic, if the job was so disgusting he should pop up and asking for a relocation or just quit and search for something else. anyway ... the opportunity of a millionaire lawsuit to Microsoft is always appealing, apparently
