The accent you think you are speaking (or are emulating) https://github.com/mozilla/voice-web/issues/242
Or throw rocks from bridges into highway traffic. Teenagers occasionally do that
By that line of reasoning, this proposal is great because not only the first but also the second and third candidate are elected, making an even later portion of the voters happy
I can't speak for corporate lawyers, but I treat AGPL v3 similar to GPL v3 (a bit truer to the GPL spirit, but in consequence a bit stricter). Then again, GPL v3 is on many people's danger list
>A potential patent applies to any implementation. Even if you write a clean-room clone of React, if it uses the same patent, Facebook has a patent claim. Sure, but that only rules out a reimplementation of React. The…
A self-sufficient Mars colony isn't easy, but it doesn't seem impossible. And the lack of FTL doesn't really limit us to this solar system either: generational starships with nuclear pulse propulsion [1] could get us to…
What existential issues are you thinking about? The biggest issue I can think of is oil running out, but we're on a good trajectory to solving that. Other resources seem either abundant or replaceable. The threat of…
In any scenario where society or technology breaks down enough for these skills to be useful, the majority of the population still won't miss them. Without industrialised fishing and farming (which relies on oil and…
I agree that throwing away the physical books would be stupid, but the index is ready enough to rebuild if we ever need it again. And in a post-computer world search times in the order of days or even weeks would be…
Everywhere? First provider I checked has a multiple server offerings with quadcore i7-6700 and 64Gb DDR4 RAM for 39€/month [1]. 1: https://www.hetzner.com/dedicated-rootserver/ex41s?country=g...
Punishing CAs for bad behavior (ie Security Problems) has more collateral damage the bigger a CA is. Right now, if a CA is bad enough browsers just stop accepting their certificates. After a certain size that becomes…
>Is there any way to ask a gzip file which size it will be once unzipped, without needing to decompress it? The closest is uncompressing it and counting and immediately discarding the bytes in the output stream. But of…
>Id argue you're still at liberty to do it - you just have to be willing to accept any social prices associated with it. You can say that about almost anything. I'm at liberty to murder my neighbor, I just have to…
You totally can. Technically sometimes you need a certain conjugation or a linking "s", but usually you just combine the words. I guess they meant that not every compound word is one that Germans actually use (as you…
In a way a dishwasher is storing energy in the form of clean dishes. Now instead of storing electricity to run the dishwasher whenever, you simply run the dishwasher when there's an electricity surplus
But there's no reason it can't be. So far there just wasn't a reason
Today's washing machines already have timers to start in X hours (at least mine has, and it's not exactly top of the line). Once consumer electricity prices reflect the actual electricity price at that moment new models…
all-you-can eat buffets work because each person has to pay seperately and the amount any person can eat in one setting has hard physical limits that are fairly low. Unlimited in the computing world usually has…
I meant that more in terms of "widely deployed in sizes exceeding the most common paper size (A4/legal)". At the size of a smartphone you have to exceed the resolution of paper by a considerable margin to show the same…
Somewhere between 0.1nm and 1nm.
But if a pipe-bending machine has a total cost of ownership of $100 per operating hour, your four pipe bending guys have a job as long as employing them costs less than $25/h. Where before they might be able get a…
Later on the article describes that they installed pumps and removed heat sources. Of course that doesn't solve the problem of operating without humans and without flooding, but I imagine getting funding for major…

>Win-loss outcomes are zero-sum by definition. I don't see this discussion going anywhere productive from here. Only in a very restricted framework. If one side goes out of business and one side only makes a minor gain…
How is Master/Slave discrimatory language? Who is discrimated there? In my eyes it is simply a factual description of an architecture: the master gives commands, the slave obeys. The slave doesn't act without permission…
