@aral eventually someone's going to make a javascript-to-native compiler, someone else is going to code a POSIX-compliant kernel in javascript, and the whole of computer science will grind to a halt ;-)

DRM on USB-C is just an extension of attempts to change the business model of consumer electronics from ownership to rental. Planned obsolescence and locked down operating systems wasn't enough. Now they want to lock down the accessory ecosystem as well. And it all comes straight out of the consumer's pocket, because more power for vendors means less power for you.

#introductions Hey all!

My name is Bruno and I'm a Computer Science MSc student. I'm interested in #books, #music, #programming, #science, #tech #gaming, #chess, and many other things really!

I really love the culture of #japan so I have this dream to experience living and working (#dev) there. I'm currently working towards that goal.

Sometimes you just have to stick a screwdriver in it.

In all these years as a programmer, I have never written Conway's Game of Life program, a rite of passage of sorts for programmers.
