Vernor Vinge introduces many fantastic ideas in his really excellent scifi book A Fire Upon the Deep. He has many fascinating concepts like what if somehow there are parts of the universe where you can go faster than…
But we keep seeing these devices after multiple generations and they keep using more and more silicone so they're not shrinking that much.
But if someone calls you on the phone, they are just sending their voice to you, there's no Avatar from them, except for one your software invented. The one that you're looking at is disconnected from the actual person.
I'm skeptical of this argument. I don't want to be on the same road with people who self identity as expert drivers going at the limit.
The credit card company could access subcategories of your purchase. It would make sense for them to do that to track you
Can you explain what project is unwinding? It looks to me like Europe is still coming together to resist the danger of Russian invasion. For Nuland, it looks like she had a long career, she had many good roles, she…
Software jobs still seem to be available for over $200k remote.
rpn for for the win I guess ;-). I actually didn't get to try my first linux stuff until grad school in the 80s. I wish I had saved off all my init files from then to see what they look like now.
I got tired of typing bc -l years ago, I have a function so I can do it on the command line: calc 2^27 + 3^15. I wish somehow the shell would let me add parens here, instead of having to escape them with a quote.…
who does not use bc? people who aren't old unix people ;-) I use bc
How do we get China to stop? It's impossible. It's completely to their advantage to have drones get better. They can mass produce them way better than us. The CPUs don't seem to be that advanced up to now, so they can…
What if they are careful to make a fake kid who looks nothing like the original (other than kind of looking like a kid of that age and kind of looking like the same race)? There are dramatic re-enactments. I don't want…
Yeah, the ideas expressed by the person above seem to lead to a lazy and incorrect argument that there's aren't any things to argue anti-trust. Google doesn't have one android store, they have 57, across 57 countries…
The "Satellite" could be a rich person's enclave. I can see an extension where someone in a wealthy powerful country has a good standard of living, but it depends on the toil and environmental destruction which affects…
I think the idea is that it used to be Boeing didn't have these kinds of problems, they managed themselves and made safer airplanes. At least they appeared safer.
Yeah that was a great anecdote, I was going to post the same story! Parent pays you to install spyware , rich kid pays you not to install spyware, double payment for nothing.
And they called him Hiro Protagonist.
How is this different than the argument to sell NFTs that are jpegs that somehow have some value, or token's having value from all these random crypto sites. And they take your 'hard crypto' eth or btc and somehow…
This is a surprising and interesting. This is an actual supply of hydrogen that wasn't based on using fossil fuels or cracking water. Since they are reused fuel cells, they don't have that incredible expensive fuel cell…
Dictatorships don't care. Look at Russia, it's much worse than China, Russia still suffers from ww2 losses. You can distract the people with a "good war". China has so many more people than Taiwan, they can waste a lot.…
We've got to make it 10 years from now for demographic change. Great fictional book about a possible 2024 era war, "2034: A Novel of the Next World War", Novel by Elliot Ackerman and James G. Stavridis. It's much more…
There are more efficient ways to get our needed energy, wind, water, solar. In the US we are up to 20% using this (and 20% nuclear). In other countries they will be able to transition to solar, as it will only get…
Okay, call them unnecessary status symbols for people to show their wealth. See also fancy cars, gaudy diamond rings. They are kind of in that category.
There are multiple reports of similar problems on related vehicles like lyriq, also see reddit for some. There's nothing good there. Behind it there's the mysterious lack of details about underlying anemic ultium…
The embedded db is cool, but what's the security boundary around UDFs? I figure running "standard" SQL is safe, because it's just some functions implemented in the database (SPJ). It's not malware (maybe only slow ;-)).…
