  1. There's another sketching objects for AIs game, I find it much easier and more fun but I guess it's not quite as ambitious. https://quickdraw.withgoogle.c...

  2. Bang With Friends redux on Facebook Finds a New Service To Copy: Tinder (vice.com) · · Score: 1

    The Bang With Friends app lets you tag friends you want to bang. If they happen to also use the app and also tag you then it connects you. It made news 4-5 years ago but it appears to still be around: https://www.facebook.com/searc...

  3. Sounds like they were hacked by a 15 year old. on Comcast Employees Change Customer Names To 'Dummy' and Other Insults · · Score: 1

    If some script kiddie found their way into the customer database, this is just the kind of thing they would think was funny.

  4. It would just create a new black market on The Case For a Global, Compulsory Bug Bounty · · Score: 1

    As a developer, I generally try to *remove* bugs from the software, but for a share of the $150,000, I'm sure I could let something slip through and then tell you where to find it. Dilbert nailed this 18 years ago: http://dilbert.com/strips/comic/1995-11-13/

  5. Re:"Why not both?" on Ask Slashdot: Name Conflicts In Automatically Generated Email Addresses? · · Score: 1

    Our company does the same. My primary email address is username@company.com but I also have aliases of first_last@company.com and first.last@company.com. Conflicts are generally handled manually by adding a middle initial but since it's manual, it could be almost anything. The same mechanism is used for general aliasing for situations like name changes when someone gets married, they get both the old and new address.

  6. Re:Contour Crafting on Dutch Architect Plans 3D Printed Building · · Score: 1

    Video link seems to have gone missing. See: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JdbJP8Gxqog

  7. Contour Crafting on Dutch Architect Plans 3D Printed Building · · Score: 1

    USC has been working on 3D printing of buildings for a while now. Professor Behrokh Khoshnevis has developed a process he calls contour crafting that builds up a wall by adding concrete to it one contour at a time. You can find a TEDx video here. They're currently working with NASA to see if this technique can be used on the moon. But it doesn't seem like they've moved beyond the prototype stage.

  8. Let China do the work for you! on Blocking a Nation's IP Space · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Just put a few references to Fulan Gong on the web site. The Great Firewall of China will soon block everyone for you.
