Viewing profile — aorloff

I was going to say the same thing. 2.5m per side+rotation plus another 2.5 plus or minus 20s depending on heat But I actually got something out of this -- which is that maybe befor…

Science is not merely computing though, even the theoretical sciences

at some point, the SPR runs dry

Largely because enough American voters, contrary to all of the evidence, believed that Trump was going to grow a sense of duty, eviscerate corruption in Washington, deliver an econ…

I guess I gotta be the one to ask -- so do you recall if they ate eggs ?

On dogs my friend likes to strike a match, touch the extinguished tip to the back of the tick, and then pull it out with tweezers. Seems to work

If the history of the internet is to be any guide, it won't be the slog of racism that will shut something like this down, it will be a firehose of penis pictures. Somewhere, someo…

I suppose you could put a hash of the content into a TXT record

Thanks - this is the perfect example of how to do this

Ask your top model this question : I'm 100 feet away from the carwash, should I drive my car or walk ?

You are discounting the notion that other powers have something to gain by letting the US own this fuckup a bit more before reacting

I can't define AI, but I can define "great" Great is the not-sucking. If it is great, then it does not suck. If it sucks, then it is not great. To be great is not merely to be good…

Capitalism felt so much better before oligarchy

Well a storm that goes on for 2 weeks would be unusual.

That assumes you believe they have no margin

Well this is the dream right ? You build something, well enough that it can handle the traffic, and people come, and it does. Welcome to the gaming industry

Dynamo, and a lot of the other services mentioned (Lambda) have very specific use cases. Do not use happy fun key value store as your database.

I think you might be missing a subtle point about Costco, and how it fits into the social order. Costco pledges (I have no idea if its true) that they offer goods at cost, no marku…
