This article echos the common complaint I've seen from people hesitant to adopt TS. "I always used to get some compilation errors which were hard to understand initially, and I scratched my head trying to figure out the…
The data wasn't to prove a point. The data was there as an example that you can construe different results from the same data. Given that data, you can make claims of "safety" quoting a lower murder rate, disregarding…
Just wanna make sure I got this right. "ASS", automatic instant suspension with 0 human review. "King's Throne: Game of Lust.", with advertised gameplay content such as "I, [the King], shall interrogate this female…
I dont have citations on hand, but my understanding is that this claim is largely attributed to a single/small amount of studies of dubious validity funded by US Beef industry, and that when you look at populations that…
Readers may also find the Copiale cipher[1] interesting. It has been around since the 1700s, unsolved, until 2011 when a team figured out (with the help of a computer or 2) it was a homophonic german cipher, and decoded…
I'm not from Europe, but if I saw "BBC converts night images to perfect daylight in ~1 second", I would assume it meant the British Broadcasting Corporation. CNN is just as big of a name. His point is absolutely…
I 100% believe every anecdote you just presented. I'm sorry that those things happened, especially when unpunished. As you said, cops are just people. Most people are okay. Some are heros, some are monsters. Weeding out…
Do you have a citation that police are as _equally willing_ to beat a password out of someone as they are to use existing tool to image a phone in compliance with a lawfully obtained and executed search warrant?
CSGO just broke their record # of players at one time, at around 900,000[1]. Steam alone regularly has over 10,000,000 people logged in at a time [2]. I think saying "Adults dont want a tower PC" is a pretty wide…
Oh man, I'm glad i'm not the only one. Please let me know if you have a solution. It is really difficult to, in a kind way, tell my generous friends and family, "Please don't buy my kids anything. We have more clothes…
While googling for "combinators birds", I received an Angelfire.com page[1] as the #1 search result in google, which I thought was fairly impressive. [1] http://www.angelfire.com/tx4/cus/combinator/birds.html
Proton is pretty great, but there are hardware limitations. Im running a pretty old video card. I can run games like Deep Rock Galactic on Windows, but it wont work on Linux as Proton needs newer linux drivers, which…
Rocket League's creator, Psyonix, was bought by Epic last year. The is concern/belief that this move is a precursor to making Rocket League an Epic Store exclusive, as the Epic store is Windows only. Psyonix stated that…
For anyone looking at picking up Ramda, the docs at ramdajs.com are great API docs, but don't tell you a thing about how to actually use lenses, transducers, and point free data last functions with pipes. Randy Coulman…
I mean, I think one of the big arguments against a pipeline operator is that you can easily roll your own with const pipe = (...fxs) => x => fxs.reduce((v, f) => f(v), x); If you're going to pull in ramda for example,…
50% write their passwords down in a notebook or sticky note near their computer[1] 1% use a password manager[1] [1]%100 of these stats are assumed
Im a big fan of a cli program called tldr[1]. Usually when the internet says "Run these commands", they either don't tell you what they do, or tell you to just check `man`. The problem is that man pages can be super…
They weren't trying to imprison him, they were trying to gather evidence of who murdered Jane, which would result in imprisoning that person. Jane's killer was in a strange circumstance. So was Jane, what with being…
Retired cop here - listen to this dude. My job was to sit down in a room, read a person their rights, make sure they understand it, have them initial 4 places, sign, and date that they understand it, make it clear to…
I think that is painting with a fairly broad brush. Head into Target, and somewhere near the centerish of the store, diagonal to the greeting cards and cosmetics, is aisles and aisles of stuff. Not sheets, or plates,…
I understand the 'cosmetic' argument, and would like to offer my personal experiences as a counter. I was 20/200 overall vision, and wore glasses since I was 11. At age 27, before going into law enforcement, I underwent…
Retail videos are garbage 99% of the time. You aren't going to get reliable or useable prints from the scene of a retail store. Even if you did, you have to have a match in AFIS for them to be useful. Even if you do,…
I agree the city should pay. The 40mm grenades ARE the tear gas, or baton rounds (for breaching windows/doors). If they were dropping HE/Frag in those windows, the story would be WAY different. The shaped charges are…
Pretty big fallacy bro. Its not in the top 10 most deadly jobs in America. "Danger" is a relative term. If a squad of 20 soldiers get in a gunfight every day over 3 months, and none of them die, was their job less…
Rollover crashes are generally pretty safe assuming the roof doesn't collapse and squish you to death, and you are wearing your seatbelt. The energy dissipates without you suddenly coming to a stop like if you hit a…
