Indeed. That's why helmets are mandatory for motorcyclists. Helmets are to motorcycles as vaccines are to COVID. Neither guarantees that you don't die or need intensive care, but both reduce the likelihood.
Not at the behest of The People? What a weird court. But more importantly, "to seize" means to "take possession", doesn't it? And you need a license to possess a teletherapy machine, for the very good reason that the…
Very important document. Thank you and your friend "from the West" for making and preserving it!

It is far more notable that there is exactly one known Denisovan fossil, namely the distal phalanx the whole "Denisovan Genome" was sequenced from. One could argue that she was just another Neanderthal, but that didn't…

It really can't be bit flipping on disk. First off, the checksum would catch it. Second, the file is compressed, so flipping a bit turns it into complete garbage. Third, BAM uses a length-prefixed coding in several…
A pseudonymous person nobody has ever heard of accuses the FSFE of sexist discrimination and workplace bullying, but can't back it up in court. How is this Hacker News? Why believe even a single word?
I'd have said Jadetex. I fondly remember the SGML toolchain; the XML stuff felt horrible in comparison.
> Alcohol is quite chemically reactive Every single reaction listed there involves a violently reactive partner: sodium, phosphorus tribromide, concentrated hydrochloric acid, you know, the stuff you ingest daily. Even…
Just a way of storing hydrogen, as if that was a solved problem. Hydrogen liquefaction is less than 50% energy efficient. Haber-Bosch compares favorably to that.
It's just 2km by 3km! This is tiny! It actually looks as if the Chinese are doing it right this time: the ugliness of the black sludge is confined to a small lake, so that the sludge can settle and the water can drain.…
Seriously, another one? https://xkcd.com/927/ Why was CBOR not good enough this time? Still not enough string types? Oh, indeed, CBOR doesn't have markup, whatever that means.
And that's why electricity is so cheap in Germany, right?
So the theory is that MSDOS tried to detect if a bootsector contained executable 68k code, because if it did, the BPB was valid and could be used to locate the FAT(s) and the master directory? That's triply dumb,…

The censors working for Facebook are traumatized by their work. Strange. I feel nothing. Neither pity, nor sympathy, just nothing.
That would change the brand in the answer, but not the spirit.
Nuclear powered ships are a reality (there are several hundred out there), and how to use nuclear power for process heat ("chemicals") is pretty obvious. Cargo should move to rail, because we already have nuclear…
"If the child believes that the make believe situation is reality, then he/she is misinterpreting the situation rather than pretending." Are you sure Wikipedia supports your assertion?
