cavemanmike··on Never built New York: the city that might have been – in pictures
Beautiful, makes me want to build alternate history fiction around these buildings.
cavemanmike··on Political Crisis Engulfs Samsung, a Firm Tied to South Korea’s Success
In fairness, the article is about the president of Samsung, I don't find it hugely surprising that it would talk about him a lot...
cavemanmike··on The Problem with AMP
Using https://encrypted.google.com/ to avoid AMP is a great tip. I'll be doing that, does anybody have more information on what that URL is for?

Is it possible to set it as default on iOS/Android somehow? AMP really frustratingly breaks link sharing, and I'd like to totally avoid it.

cavemanmike··on SrsLTE: Open Source 3GPP LTE Library
Awesome! Interesting that they're using the USRP, but have opted to use C directly rather than Gnuradio (python). I imagine the performance is pretty good because of this.

Looks awesome, wish I had the time to play with it.

cavemanmike··on Deschooling Society
I find compulsory education quite problematic, but the ideas suggested here don't sound like a great replacement or very workable for the general population.

School does general feel like a massive waste of time. I spent a lot of time feeling bored and looking out the window. It would be wonderful if their was a system that provided a base level of education but was a little more engaging.
