CompSci.ca: Now in 3D

Tony · **Posted:** Thu Mar 31, 2011 11:39 pm

A lot of you have been asking: "how do you guys afford to run compsci.ca, DWITE, and other services?" The short answer is "some ads", but the longer answer will explain that it mostly just covers the cost. Dan and I can't retire to Live the Sheen Dream. We can't even afford to hire any of you for a fetch-coffee internship position...

Although that would be really really awesome.

So we got our accountant (me, with a classy cash-monies hat on) to take a look at what could be done. You know a trend that makes a bunch of money now? 3D movies. Actually, I don't know if they make any more profit than regular movies, but everybody is jumping on that bandwagon, so there must be some non-zero amount of monies in that.

So in hopes of grabbing even a small fraction of $12.35 million that Justin Bieber Never Say Never (totally with 3D) got on its opening day, I present you with CompSci.ca: Now in 3D! Now, where's that coffee?

This new layout is totaly bi-winning.

Send me some glasses and I'll approve. Until then I do not care for this.

But it is pretty awesome.

That is one amazing idea, there must be lots of profit involved.

Nice shades Dan!

is it a coincidence that xkcd's comic today is about 3D too? haha link

The goggles, they do nothing! It burns!

If I lived in the area I totally would fetch you both a coffee for the level of epic here. Unless you swing by Toronto I can't do too much for you, sorry.

I'm convinced Dan is actually Randall. These coincidences happen far too often.

Not just today's...they all have that 3D cube around them now. The world has been taken over.

Cool, they're all 3D! I searched back and thought this one was cool in 3D: http://xkcd.com/2/

font should have been changed to Helvetica Very Happy

Google went crazy this April fools.

It is a bit harder to read code without 3D glasses. I unfortunately only have the polarized ones you get at the cinemas nowadays.

Nah, Dan is unique.
There was speculation that Dan & I were the same person years ago, but there has never been any conclusive proof.. yet Wink

Since there is so much speculation about Dan and he never revealed his real self, Dan is Anonymous (hence the Hacker) and Anonymous is Dan. Razz
