For very long term effects (e.g., the impact of painting every surface of your website in ads which will certainly drive users away), hold backs aren't enough because it's too hard to consistently identify users. If ads…
I was in a similar position, but highly motivated to switch due to advancing RSI symptoms. I waited to switch until a low-code, long-duration project came across my desk and was pleasantly surprised by how quickly my…
Heat pumps use energy to _move_ heat, not create it. Your refrigerator, for example, moves heat from inside the fridge to outside the fridge. Your AC operates on the same principle. Pump the refrigerant in the other…
Right, I am suggesting that a city can play out this competition by paying higher wages, i.e. paying suburban workers directly, rather than indirectly via subsidy. The experiment here is in wondering what those same…
Asserting that the cost is necessary is a _big_ assumption. It's subsidized, sure, but that doesn't imply that it needs to be. If the subsidy ends, maybe wages will rise to close the gap, or maybe they won't, and…
This is exactly why I buy presents. If I give my dad $250, he will not buy a smart thermostat. The economic utility to him of a smart thermostat is not that high versus, say, $250 in gasoline or food. He'll fill his…

> The only moral principle I have stated is that one should not impose punishments on people who have not caused actual harm But isn't the risk of death a harm? That's what I'm driving at here. It's about where the line…
I'm sorry, I should have been clear. The 'certainty of punishment' bit should be understood as a probability. The gist of it is that a person considering criminal behavior isn't worried about the severity of the…

And let's not even get into all the bishop-free houses with cathedral ceilings. People have no respect these days.
A basic step for securing a resource intensive API from DDOS attacks and some user impersonation attacks is to rely on a security token in a cookie set in the response to an earlier request. For example, a user may land…
Yeah, it turns out all the "An X and a Y walked into a bar" jokes are based in reality. Many years ago, my friends and I had a night in our favorite dive. That bar draws college kids, Brazilian immigrants, alcoholic…

Some animals are better than others for eating and spreading seeds. If a plant could choose it might prefer birds eat its fruit, especially over animals with molars that crack the seeds. Not coincidentally, the active…
This is not so clear, especially on the darkness point (though I'm sure uber is pleased their message has taken the day in some circles). The car knew it needed to brake over 1 second before impact but failed to apply…

Or split into steam-the-platform-the-company and valve-the-games-company - and if that happens I predict half life 3 really will follow.
It's _like_ rainbow parties, except for the explicitly political bent that seems only to advance white nationalist motives/politics. Certainly, creation by 8chan users does not disprove white nationalism. If anything it…
White nationalists are trying to ruin the OK hand-sign for everybody else by posing for photos in large groups while making the OK hand-sign. As far as I can tell they're attempting the following: 1. Poison the OK…
I have periodic trouble with panic attacks at night, when I'm trying to sleep, usually linked to times of external stress. I thought it was insomnia. In the moment, they're miserable - rapid pulse, cold sweat, numb…
Which people? Is it when they banned Lauren Southern for actively interfering in rescue operations in the Mediterranean (i.e., trying to get people killed)? Or is it when they banned a leftist/antifa group (IGD) for…
Right, but if they acquire $6000 for 20000 tether (that they paid $0 for), and promise that tether is full redeemable for $20000, they are $14000 short when the tether holder comes knocking.
