And an operating system that's designed for it, because if you want to you can hook up those things now you can cobble something together hooking up those things but to call that e…

If this for your side project and your just using machine translation anyways - if this saves you steps, go for it. When it comes down to an actual product, as a consumer, most wou…

What a lazy comparison and article. No relevant facts, critical thinking, connective tissue or argument being made: it's "Hey kids you remember 1998, right? No? Well, it's just lik…

If the purpose of ice cream and air conditioning is to make the user feel cooler, then wouldn't it be logical to say the more ice cream they eat the less air conditioning they'd us…

This article's word choice using terms like "larping" and "cosplaying" to talk about Mark Twain on a history site seems like a less than ideal writing style; it made me stop readin…

I didn't see it mentioned here, but worth pointing out if it wasn't obvious it's the 4th quarter of the fiscal year and hiring drops off - it's the worst time of the year to land a…

Yeah, when I read this my thought was that is probably the act of coughing somewhat uncontrollably after surgery probably doesn't help things heal properly. I wonder if the results…

I'm a native English speaker but I went to Spanish camp here in the USA in high school for four weeks so here's what I found anecdotally about that experience helpful - in a nutshe…

So the author registered this "webtwoboomer.com" domain and says their mission is "Poisoning my brain with web3 so you don’t have to." Skepticism is fine, but the bias is cringe. I…

Another factor could be the fact ENS names expire and require a renewal fee, which didn't make a whole of sense to me given the immutable nature of the blockchain - there's more ov…

Smart contracts came out in 2015 on Ethereum apparently. What came out in 2008? Bitcoin 1.0? Things do move fast in tech, you may want to keep up with the latest versions before wr…

Has it ever occurred to you that the scammers are just loudest voice in the room? They're not known for being passive.

No you don't have any responsibility to speak out against blockchain technologies, that's for luddites. You can speak out against cryptocurrency, NFTs, false promises and poor impl…

I believe you, sounds like a bit of a bother to train the new cats as well. Makes me wonder though if once one cat was trained, if you got a new kitten whether it could pick up the…

I still play around with BBS's but I have to look stuff up - funny thing about this new post was the external link has an 'visited' property unlike most stuff that comes across my …

I was there too if you need anecdotal evidence, my Dad worked in marketing for Apple - notable for being the ad manager for the 1984 ad campaign and you're wrong. I mean that ad wa…

This is the correct answer - and PC originally, or "Personal Computer" is more of a distinction from old school mainframe computers that lived in a lab or wherever and took up enti…

You have to renew .eth domains yearly and they are a ripoff... IPFS is about as permanent as a .torrent file imho until proven otherwise. Like if you really wanted to accomplish th…

This about MiniDisc data discs, gosh I remember in 1996 I sold my Tascam 388 Reel-to-Reel 8 Track for a Tascam 564 4 Track minidisc. Terrible decision, although part of it was a re…

I never recall it doing that, you may be thinking of the `package-lock.json` which does get created still. It basically creates/records hashes of the packages that get installed wh…

Aside from general enthusiasm about crypto, you could say people are hanging Ethereum for more utility based purposes these days - defi dapps built on top of the ETH blockchain hav…

I wouldn't invest in BTC at this point - although it's a safe long term position, the capital injection required to move the price is pretty high as I think the market cap's around…

I got significant latency as well that made it unusable to play as an instrument, in Safari and Chrome on Mac... surprisingly you seem to be the only other one reporting the issue …

I'm familiar with Stanford having a similar group, SMUG, and although I wasn't a member, it looks like they still exist : https://www.pa-smug.org

I made/am working on a DApp that does some stuff involving ANSI art as tokens with some additional properties that have rules that get enforced by the smart contract, which is esse…
