a big part of it is how prepared both the government and the people are. In fairbanks, alaska we recently had a much larger storm and although many people lost power for a couple of days and most of the town was stuck…
I personally think it is wishful thinking. At this facebook is rich enough that even if facebook.com completely imploded they could pivot to another social media platform they own such as instagram, and it is hard to…
In alaska there is no real punishment for skipping school
Qemu supports severel different kinds of emulation, eg on linux it can use KVM for fast virtualization. No clue what apple plans on using though
I would argue trust is a big part of it. My counter example: Apple. Apple is a massive company that could collect massive sums of valuable data. Althoguh they do act like a monopoly in many respects (cough cough T2)…
At the same time people who are self taught typically have more time and energy to attack things in more depth. My cs classes are pretty 'standard' and on my free time I can go on long tangents where I really learn. I…
I got the dell precision 5520 with ubuntu preinstalled and I promptly installed arch. My experience (aside from nvidia) was pretty much as good as it gets with linux. I never had any issues with wifi etc. If one is…
Not always. UA is composed of many sub groups. They usually have little to do with each other. Some of these groups are very wastefull and just try to further their existance. But a large portion of the groups are…
surprisingly a lot of the people there actually care about science and some people care about teaching
UA is nothing like a corporation it is tied to the state. Yes it has quite a bit of waste but fundamentally the institutions goal is to do research and to educate
This election cycle was also pretty wierd. Our choices were basically a mayor and senator that drove anchorage into huge debt or an unknown republican
That is still a huge cut to UA. The quality of education and research will be severely hurt by that cut. Many of the education programs do not make money and that is fine because they provide an important service to the…
That is unfortunatly true but with that cut it will not only be the fat that is cut but also a lot of the meat. UA is already struggling and it needs help. The way to fix is that is not to cut funding from it. A better…
The open source world really kills your argument. Red Hat is on the stock exchange and it is fairly happy to work on a product for long time periods (rhel and related products) without it turning into a gigantic blob. I…
surprisingly I have found rhytmbox by the gnome devs to be pretty good. It does what is supposed to very well and it works which is all I want out of a digital music player.

I find the amount of people making excuses for apple more interesting than the actual fire itself. It seems like there is quite a bit of apple worshiping going on in /r/apple
What is interesting is that a lot of old computers operated by this standard where you would have one big backplane and a lot of IO cpu's etc attached to that. I find it interesting how we have gone full circle. I do…
Couldn't Boeing just put in a bunch of gyroscopes into the chassis and use that as a backup AoA sensor? (I am not a pilot so I have no clue if that is reasonable)
