It would be nice if there was information about what is allowed, what isn't, how you'll handle inappropriate or abusive situations, etc.


They'll tell you.


Bingo.


I could see this being fun if I was interested in going to a specific event in my area but didn't have anyone to go with and was single. Of course, there is the risk/downside of what happens if it didn't go well but that's a risk for any first date.


They've already stated that it'll be a few years before they'll get ruby 3X faster.


The 3x was compared to Ruby 2.0, on some slides they claim Ruby 2.4 is already 30 - 40% faster then 2.0, so effectively you will only get around 2x more speedup.


Great job! One note: a few of the images/logos are broken. Example: https://remotebase.io/reinteractive


There's not much point handling logos yourself when you can just use: https://clearbit.com/logo


That's pretty cool! Do you have any plans to have it respect the boundaries of solid objects it comes in contact with such as the poles it's tethered to? Currently, the cloth will go through the poles instead of interacting with the poles as solid objects.


I'd started off this project by using a fancier ray-tracing method of detecting and avoiding collisions with arbitrary shaped objects. Unfortunately it was just too slow for satisfying real-time performance. So finally, I went with doing the collision detection in a case-by-case way for more simple shapes (ball, table, etc.). The poles would be easy to add as an option, I may try to add that in. Thanks for the suggestion!


Reasons I've been chosen for extra screening by the TSA: - They saw something in my bag (I didn't bring a bag) - They needed to confiscate contraband (granola bar) - My sweatshirt zipper "interfered with scanning my breasts thoroughly enough" - They "randomly selected me" 15 times in a row

At this point, I make sure to budget lots of extra time to get through their nonsense procedures in order to make my flight.


Have you tried exercism.io? There is a code review process built into the platform and the exercises are short and fun.


I love this idea. My cousin and I have been sending each other postcards frequently for years. She's always good about sending them often while I'm only good at purchasing neat postcards with the intent to send them.


Why do power-ups inconsistently change the markdown for Github links?

When you don't have power-ups enabled, it will shorten all Github links and add a nicer format to certain types but when you do have the power-ups, it no longer shortens Github links at all but adds the octocat to the beginning.

While having power-ups can be nice, the added inconsistency is a bit off-putting. It would be great to shorten and format all of the links in the same fashion across all boards regardless of whether or not you have power-ups enabled on that particular board.
