Wow, hacker news is incredible sometimes :) , I was/am just looking over your notebook a week ago. Vacation is starting in a couple days and i was gonna try and solve if infinite play is possible in Tetris with just perfect clears. People have been at the problem for a few years now, and your notebook is pretty cool :D http://harddrop.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=7792&hl=perfe...

Sci hub :) was even on the frontpage here a couple of days ago https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14632603

I've seen this posted on r/meditation a few times, and my own thoughts are that meditation can sometimes allow underlying issues to come to light that otherwise wouldn't have.

However, as with most things, it's markedly better to deal with those as they come rather than ignore them. Sure, they might be "negative" but that's what gives reason to grow and change. The hope is that when adversity comes you wont be weighed down because already dealt with it/recognized it and learned tools and coping methods.

A good example of a "bad" feeling that's actually pretty positive https://www.reddit.com/r/Meditation/comments/57bl4t/dark_sid...

Since you're using python and R I'm gonna throw Jupyter (used to be called ipython) into the mix (I'm using it half the time on desktop anyway because notebooks format everything so beautifully). You might also want to install Hacker's Keyboard from the play store so you have access to shift/enter/ctrl, and while I havent personally used it on a phone it should work fine. Here is a random tutorial link http://bretahajek.com/2016/12/jupyter-notebook-opencv-androi...

And using termux+vim is definitely an IDE, but has a pretty damn steep learning curve.

Silly question, but why not use a e-ink tablet like the nook? With a bluetooth keyboard and termux/jupyter working on android it should still work fine as a terminal device. Though I have no experience with them and I might be wrong

Glad to know i wasn't the only one :)

Yes, basically have it somewhat stealthy, where i would use the laptop as a laptop and sit the backpack anywhere in the room. And moving the video card to the HMD wouldn't make that much sense for me because that's the main desktop part i would like to stay desktop class.

And I think Google and Microsoft are hoping to get a version of this with hololens and tango, where they run machine models and cloud resources when needed and just get the results/models to run on the mobile devices. Still very much in its infancy though.

Personally I'd like a heavy and large desktop that fits in a typical backpack complete with batteries, with a thin ultrabook like wireless screen+keyboard, detachable like the surface. I know i'm in a very tiny minority, but eventually with streaming solutions like the TPCast for Vive it might be viable (you can diy a 12volt desktop from 18650s, but probably not a good wireless hdmi yet). Or if not, hopefully when we get lighter and less obvious AR goggles.

I'm very aware it's a pretty impractical idea but i find it fun to think about :)
