- yigithan parentI stopped using google.com for Internet access check, I now use HN.
- I love the whole Command & Conquer series. As others have pointed out, even though the graphics were 2D and pixelated, the soundtracks would really draw you into the atmosphere. I cannot describe how good it felt to play these games during school breaks, sometimes until dawn. These games were the sole reason we upgraded the RAM on our PC whenever a new one came out. I bought the bundle from EA a couple of years back and still play it occasionally. This will be my son’s first PC game too.
- To avoid accidentally sending an email in Outlook, I once learned a useful trick: add a nonexistent email address, like sdfsdf to the To or CC field. Email would not be sent until you removed it. Lo and behold, one day I entered sdfsdfsdf, and it resolved. Someone of course was using this as a test group name.
- I, too, learned programming in BASIC. I wrote many programs, really useful ones, too. My mom is a pharmacist, I wrote a simple program to calculate price of some of the items they prepared. I wrote a flashcard like program to study foreign language, a quiz program to learn license plate codes in Turkey. I wrote screen saver animations, random circles, yin and yang, drawing flags. It was an amazing feeling as a child. I’d never looked up who created it, either. Now I know: Rest in peace, Thomas Kurtz!
- Facebook once allowed users to draw directly on a friend’s wall. For a friend’s birthday, I developed a tool that recreated an image pixel by pixel on the canvas. The entire process took about an hour to complete. I doubt anyone realized the effort behind the post, as to most, it probably just looked like a regular image upload.
- >With Mac Virtual Display, users can even bring the powerful capabilities of their Mac into Vision Pro, creating an enormous, private, and portable 4K display, ideal for pro workflows
I think if Apple allows people to run an instance of MacOS on these devices like a VM (i.e. without the need to purchase a Mac, it looks like the CPU is M2 on these devices) that would be the killer feature. This will make the price more reasonable for people who are considering renewing their Macs.
I’d also want to be able to see the image on these devices live remotely e.g. on an iPad or TV similar to Quest 3.
- Right, they can even do this for within city delivery. Imagine each home having a tube box, like a mailbox, that is vertically connected to the network of tubes underground. Small electric vehicles running through the tubes and carrying parcel from warehouse hubs to homes and even vice versa. Amazon Instant Delivery!
- Technology to efficiently visualize any part of the body at atomic level in real time.
And, technology to efficiently cut the bonds between atoms in any visualized part of the body.
What would something like this require? What is missing? I would expect this to be the next step after MRI/electron microscopy and gamma knife.
If this existed, we wouldn’t need vaccines for Covid, we would just shoot the bonds of those ... . Also the same cure for cancer cells.
- Morphological development of organisms. Mainly, how do cells form the shape of the organism and how do they specialize to different type of tissues? How do cells know where they are? What is the mechanism that puts the constraints on the shape of the body? I can understand mitosis but the rest from there is magic.
