This place died shortly after Duke sold it off.

3Blue1Brown I wouldn't say the stuff he talks about is simple, but it is something that anyone who either minored or majored in math in college should know pretty well. I like the channel because he provides great intuitive insight for these topics. His series on linear algebra helped me a lot...

Been a long week at work. Was arguing with the mathematician at my job for a while today. Just like any other scientist who knows how to code, they think they know software principles because they can code some bullshit script, but doesn't know jack shit about stability and efficiency...

Got three books from amazon last week, which I started reading today. Here are the links: Windows Internals 7th ed Practical Reverse Engineering Introduction to 3D game programming with DirectX 12 I started selling cheats for FPS games, and programming them reignited my interest in hacking...

Played games on my babysitter's atari and NES in 1994-ish

Definitely Diablo II. That game got me through some rough times.

Playing through assassin's creed syndicate right now. I started it back in 2015, but there was a gamebreaking bug about halfway through that prevented me from playing. Two years later and that bug STILL exists, but I managed to find a workaround and continued the game. After an hour or so of...

I recently got a HTC Vive, which cam ewith Star Trek Bridge Crew and I am loving the crap out of it. I have to force myself to go to bed all night otherwise I'd easily stay up all night playing. Haven't enjoyed a game this much in a long time.

I just want youtube to have an option to view all videos on a channel I haven't watched.

More like on life support. Anyway, my ad blocker blocks 22 ads, which really isn't as bad as some websites. The ad blocker blocks about 1,700(!) requests from Twitch. I hate this cancer on the internet and would gladly just pay for subscription services to access stuff that I want. But then...

^Yea, at the start of the campaign I typically fight all battles, but once I start to expand I autoresolve more often than not because there are too many battles to fight. I do fight if the auto-resolve is showing a loss when the armies are relatively even, though. You can almost always win...

I don't think Trump is going to ask him to resign. His statement is purposefully being taken out of context. Sessions was responding to allegations of him being in contact with Russians in the context of Trump's campaign, and his response was him basically saying he didn't. I don't understand...

Rome Total War II. A lot of people made a stink over the game when it was released, but I think it is pretty solid. Naval battles are complete shit, though, but that isn't really the fault of the developers. Naval battles of the time were pretty shit compared to the awesome naval battles that...

What he did was completely legal. The law is explicitly stated in the executive order. The judges who made those rulings are notorious for making bullshit political rulings that are out of their jurisdictions and overturned all the time. I haven't been following those cases closely but the last...

Ok, I got a drunk story to share. Actually I have a ton of them to share, but this one is pretty important because it involves everclear and is the first time I drank alcohol. First time I got drunk was way back in 2004, at the age of 17, when I was a freshman in college (for the first time)...
