GitHub
Perhaps obviously (although perhaps not so obviously in the era of Wikipedia and having one's StackExchange Q&A edited by others without asking)...someone's GitHub repository on the web is not something you modify directly. Instead you "fork" it to create your own clone, that only you (a...
There is currently a onebox for Trello Cards. Cards look kind of like this:
It would be nice if links to Trello Boards were oneboxed also, to tell you the board's name, show its icon, and what organization it belonged to. Maybe something along what's in the Trello header when you're looking ...
Thus, I think every little nudge one can get in to integrate it is a good thing... a onebox here, an API there, eventually people might actually pay attention to process.
Thanks. Odd though, I can see, how people would build reasoning systems that are somewhat convoluted based on the convoluted set of laws and rights they have to work within.
Feeling put upon by that, one might gravitate more naturally to the "well if my life is burdened by a bunch of nonsense, that benefits others at a cost to me, why shouldn't I cost others with nonsense at a benefit to me to keep things even?"
So you wind up deriving your own personal worldview from something like Adobe's Font Embedding and Licensing policy...instead of seeing that as potentially a wildly mad constructed concept...and tackling how you think from first principles.
There was this thing, maybe not in New Zealand but here, where they started putting a pre-movie clip in the theaters which would show all these various crimes taking place
It was overlaid with text after you watched the bad crime and would say "YOU WOULDN'T STEAL A PURSE..."
One of my earliest fascinations with computers was, in fact, this idea of unlocking resources. Things that were formerly scarce, becoming unlimited. I thought the whole point was that using technology, we were going to wipe out scarcity once and for all.
I think one can conclude it's not only possible, but accomplished, if one compares the spiralling depth and detail of even the small part of the omniverse we are exposed to vs. the idea of "nothin'"
So the phone bill system couldn't cash it, but what is "the phone bill system"?
And what happens in an exception, when the contents are shaped like a phone bill but contain no information they recognize... and the check isn't usable
I sort of imagine a bunch of bill processing robots not knowing what to do with something, and lacking anywhere to put something... just stick it in an outgoing bill to someone else
I've been pretty lucky in terms of good people doing things like tracking me down to return my wallet, etc. Coming to my place and leaving a note on the door "I found your wallet, come see me..." I like those reactions. Nice people out there. It's not all scary.
But back to the design issue, I think small stray marks overriding intuition about where an envelope is to be sent based on the address window are an example of a "problem"
So the question of what is hidden in the noise can only be assisted by being very careful and vigilant about what kind of noise is allowed
somehow it reminded me of those trials where common sense can easily explain the truth, yet evidence for some reason is invalid (sort of like having someone saying something in camera but being disregarded as evidence because the person didn't sign a paper)
Anyway... I'm always careful before saying something means nothing. I see there was an apophenia reference, but there is another extreme--to not be able to see or acknowledge pattern
Some of my friends religiously attend ComicCon etc. I myself have a very short attention span and own almost no physical objects. Zero books, dvds, etc.
Speaking of which, I signed up for Amazon prime to get 2-day shipping on something and then forgot to cancel it. So I have Amazon prime I guess. Their trick works.
Then I snapped alignments to the furniture features in the room, so it was like the wall was reflecting the furniture.
Interestingly, this exposed some architectural properties that had also been done in the construction. Stuff like wall outlets being right in the middle of the door height, that sort of thing.
Nothing is closed any longer. Things are put on hold.
Shouldn't the "close" link be changed to "hold"?
Is this even important? I know if I were a new user and saw votes to hold rather than votes to close, I'd feel a bit better.
