Maybe 500 years by today's behavioral standards. I assume that if people were told you could live ~forever barring an accident leading to your death, many people in society would behave VERY differently. The risk…
Ridiculing genuine curiosity is a terrible behavior from teachers... why stifle inquisitive minds? Anyway, you may already be familiar with these proposed biochemistries, but there has been a lot of speculation on this…
Could you please elaborate on the distinction that you see between "artificial" intelligence and whatever it is that we as humans possess? Furthermore, what specific aspects of this intelligence are unachievable by an…
Not that you're wrong about US factory farming, but this article (and the photos) are only concerned with Canada. It's, unfortunately, not just a US problem.
Depending on where you are, you can use Curb or something similar to pair with your ride and let the app handle payment. I use it (or just hailing cabs) almost exclusively over Uber/Lyft these days, typically 1/2 the…
New Relic has had this for a few years now for a couple hundred of the most requested domains: https://docs.newrelic.com/docs/query-your-data/explore-query... Disclaimer - I work at New Relic but not on this.
There's the IP code (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IP_Code) but I've only seen it used with respect to devices. It's unclear (to me) if it would cover something like this.
Some sections are truly fascinating. Personally, I always loved the chapter on asbestos (http://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/text?doc=Perseus%3Atext%...) because I was surprised to learn that they had figured out its…
I think we read the same version. "Verisimilitude" was a new word for me. I'm still trying to find a way to use it in conversation.
I may be able to shed some light on this. During the dyn outage I really wanted to keep listening to soundcloud, so I spent a bit digging up the hostenames/IPs to dump in /etc/hosts. I found that they were fetching data…
This got me thinking: how much CO2 is emitted by different energy sources in generating 1 kilowatt-hour? I came across this link: http://blueskymodel.org/kilowatt-hour Seems like solar is more or less a break even,…
A little over a year ago, I followed a link to Lapham's from HN, and I've been a subscriber and reader ever since. Every magazine is an absolute treat. For those who are already extremely well read it might be review,…
Not an article, but here's the paper the WHO cites to make the "16% increased risk per 100g red/processed meat" claim. It's citation 12 on the WHO paper: http://www.plosone.org/article/fetchObject.action?uri=info%3...
>Please would you kindly help if good with you please, thank you kindly, thanks. Took a while, but along with a coworker, we were able to get 100.
In addition, if fraction of life were the cause, wouldn't we expect to see people with retrograde amnesia exhibit childlike impatience?
Agreed, and I think it's especially uncomfortable because that sort of reasoning is exactly the sort of thing Chesterton would've hated.
