    Pretty sure he did believe, otherwise he wouldn't have made the infamous blogpost encouraging p-hacking.

    I've had two kavalans while traveling in china recently, both were forgettable. Decent enough but very expensive for what they were. Both were bourbon cask so maybe another express…

    Westfield valley Fair does, they have a system that will let you know where you parked if you provide it your license plate details. If it doesn't find an exact match you get to tr…

    Oregon trail on an apple 2 in kindergarten. Then taking apart my parent's IBM work computer to see how it worked, mostly got it back together.. Found a book on basic in the library…

    That wasn't an aspect ratio point, it was about the stereoscopic requirement of display headsets. Both eyes see mostly the same "8K" of content, just from a different perspective. …

    I just put a threadripper build together and was surprised with an extremely difficult and finicky foxconn socket. Takes a while for my monitor to wake up and was sure I had killed…

    The other advantage is that once the seismic wave is detected, you can transmit that info at lightspeed vs the 10s of km/h that seismic waves propagate.

    As an American who has worked at IBM, I'm also not surprised that this didn't find success. They messed up my own payroll, by sending too little, then too much, then we had a 6 mon…

    It looks like they sell lots of small batches, a particular batch might be 574, another 100, no limit to the number of batches though.

    It's fine if you can invalidate the secret after some finite number of tries and block a particular actor from attacking many accounts. And there's no leaking cross sites if someon…

    The A8 doesn't have a dedicated crypto engine like Intel chips do (uncore I think they call it). The A8 does have a couple of AES specific instructions so each core can speed up th…

    What leads you to think Intel will give him more autonomy? Or is their integrated graphics team setup differently than Radeon? I would suspect the old ATI boundaries after 11 years…
