Awesome, will do! (and yeah, I've got emokit starred already :) )

sad to hear that! My epoc is on its way.

Excellent.

Did you guys build this as a framework by any chance or do you have plans to?

Really awesome stuff JP and Steve! I've been having similar ideas about the subject myself :)

Let me ask you this, which one of these services looks more appetizing?

Bright pretty pictures give a pretty damn obvious advantage.

Apart from teaching somebody how to debug, I actually disagree - it's a very important point to make that you need to be exact when giving computer's instructions, something many people learning programming don't grasp very easily.

Yeah. I have no CS background so I was hoping to learn something here. Nope.

Can I suggest you include a sample recipe like so: http://www.blueapron.com/pages/sample-recipes

I think I'm gonna steal this idea and name my company HubGrub.

Yeah but it removes the need to trek across town to pick something up. It's much easier for buyers.

What is the 40 comment penalty?

I also cannot get it to work. The little bit of instructions there are make no sense so I don't know if I'm doing something wrong or if it's just broken on my computer.

Now I'll just need to figure it out the old fashioned way and sleep with an Uber employee :(

The first couple of times people tip drivers extra, they probably get rated as 5. Everybody else becomes a 4 after that, maybe?

I found this on the research group's youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nsjDnYxJ0bo

Whether or not autistic people use imagery is irrelevant, he said "language is the serialization," not "for everybody the only way they think of abstract concepts is via serialization with language."

Fake Programming: Using hacks and tricks to achieve things other languages have natively.

Though anybody will admit it's some pretty clever stuff, not many seem to look at things like this and recognize it for what it is.

Javascript's not the language rife with proprietary bullshit anymore, it's become something a bit more new: a hacked together super-language. Stick thousands of brilliant people on one unfortunate platform together and it will be inevitable.

So perhaps it's "not real" because I can't do it without requirejs. Maybe we'll appreciate it when you can do what Sass does in a .css file. So what if you can OOP, FRP, MVP, P its got a vast supply of crud-you-should-never-use.

I tell you one thing, though: I'd really love to rewrite everything I've ever done into Objective-C.

On one end you have google trying to popularize Chromebooks and on the other you have this guy trolling his office with the notion that we don't need a decoupling between the personal OS and the interweb OS anymore.

Bad title jamessun.

Some men just want to watch the world burn.

Awesome, I was hoping somebody made this already. Thanks!

My biggest issue with code navigation on Github is that there doesn't seem to be a way to traverse the file tree without navigating through each directory.

It makes getting an overall sense of the organization of the project a bit of a hurdle until you actually clone the repo and look through it (which is too much work if I'm just glancing at something quickly).

For both new-to-project and new-to-programming folks, I'd argue this is very important as it's a scaffolding mechanism for learning the new system.

Well, as far as I understand the technology, there's a projection of a 3-dimensional image emitted in very many directions.

So what you see at 45 degrees (polar) angled to the screen would be different than at the normal (90 degrees). Then there's the azimuthal angle as well (you can walk around it if it were laying flat on a desk).

Unless there's some other input indicating to the touchscreen at what angles your eyes are at, determining what you see, there seems to be no way to correlate touch/movement gestures with 3-dimensional surfaces.

This said, I can still stipulate tremendous value in treating all gestures as acting from the perspective of the normal - you would have a 3d image under glass and every touch on the glass corresponds to a z-dimensional intersection with the holograph.

How many notions of 'depth' have we tried to create over the years within UI designs?

This is literally, adding another dimension to our UIs. I'm excited to see what people come up with and can't wait to play with it myself.

Well, yeah, we all have a cognitive bias in that we've never had to comprehend a scale at 10^35-10^45 before (that's my belief graph btw).

I'd be interested to see the results of the first part of this. I've heard of those studies (perhaps they were just stories?) where groups of people collectively estimated things like number of jelly beans in a jar and were actually pretty accurate on average.

Obviously it's not going to be like that, because some of these things people can actually know - but I'm still curious.

In case you're curious where it ends, you first go through the belief charts. Then you start working with a little probability calculator. It ends with an embedded google form with open-answer fields for responding to harder text questions.

Haha. I did the same exact thing.

It becomes clear once you progress through a few of the examples what this means.

You don't need tutorials and tool-tips, you just need to be able to learn by doing.*

*and users who don't shy away on the first hint of confusion.

You can also

  var str = ' \
      <!doctype html> \
      <html> \
        <body> \
          <h1>❤ unicorns</h1> \
        </body> \
      </html> \
  ' 

I find it's better than string concat because the trailing \ is just one annoying thing rather than three.
