superdaniel··on The Mac Pro Lives
It bothers me more that windows explorer doesn't have tabs natively. I use that all the time in Finder and it's way more convenient to be able to right click on a directory and say open a new terminal tab in that directory then having to go to the title bar and type in cmd in windows.
superdaniel··on Mozilla Acquires Pocket
Too bad sync kind of sucks... Just yesterday I was looking at a recipe on my desktop and then I opened Firefox on my phone and tried to get at the link without emailing or messaging myself and it only showed sync'd tabs from over a week ago.
superdaniel··on Evernote’s transition to Google Cloud Platform
Wow. I wonder how many eyebrows at google that has raised
superdaniel··on PyTorch – Tensors and Dynamic neural networks in Python
I was wondering the same thing. There's even another repo that seems mildly popular called pytorch on Github: https://github.com/hughperkins/pytorch
superdaniel··on Skip Lists Done Right
Georgia Tech definitely teaches it in the intro data structures and algorithms course. I don't remember if we had to implement it, but it definitely came up in lecture.
superdaniel··on Bill Belichick Throws in the Tablet
If you're talking about the built-in wifi on the TWC given box then I would try using a third party access point. I was having the same problems as you and that solved it for me.
superdaniel··on Using Gmail with Mutt
Not trying to be snarky, but why not use something like Thunderbird (or whatever comes default on the OS of the machine that you're using) that will render out the HTML natively?
superdaniel··on iPhone 7
Experiencing the same issue on Firefox on OSX.
superdaniel··on Why don’t podcasts use VBR MP3s? Because iOS and macOS don’t accurately seek them
Overcast[0], the iOS app that Marco makes supports chapters and he usually adds them when he encodes his podcast and it's pretty nice. Hopefully he releases his personal podcast production tool soon so that it can be more widely used.

superdaniel··on $12M stolen from 1,400 convenience store ATMs across Japan in 2 hours
It's used in accounting in certain companies. It probably depends on the company culture.
superdaniel··on PieMessage: iMessage on Android
I'm guessing the imessageclient project doesn't work on El Capitan yet? How does your iMessageModule[0] get around it?

superdaniel··on ‘Minimal’ cell raises stakes in race to harness synthetic life
I think you're describing the field of [bioprocess engineering](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bioprocess_engineering). A lot of time is spent trying to balance cell growth with the possibility of mutations being introduced into the system. Even between different strains of E. coli the doubling rate can vary. Moreover, one also needs to contend with the fact that prokaryotes typically cannot produce very complex proteins. This leads some processes to need to use eukaryotes such as CHO cells, which are much slower.
