It is not a population sample - IE: we didn’t randomly pick 3000 people and observed who they donated to. Or in other words: we asked the whole population who they wanted to donate…

Did you actually look at the numbers? You should give it a try. The best you can get from those numbers is that people are more likely to donate to the Democratic party than the Re…

Just to get the numbers right: [0] there is a $25 minimum, that becomes $50 June 1st, on all packages below or at $800. So those $0.25 transistors - after June 1st - come at $50.25…

I think some of the AI demos are kind of comedy gems. I have seen the Apple Intelligence presentation a while ago and in the span of five minutes they had someone asking the assist…

Not the op, but no - I don't see anything wrong with the scenario: the employer is making the call, and if they find the speech of the employee doesn't fit with their worldview the…

A password hash is a simple hash of a password. Hash algorithms are made to be fast. KDF - key deriving functions - are slow by design and are made to derive a key from a given str…

Could you give some numbers to back it up? Considering the loss due to inflation from 2019 [1] I would have expected the truck to get to around $49,200. [1] https://www.in2013dolla…

Could you please cite sources on this? Just looking at Rivian [1] they delivered 37,396 units this year alone. Tesla doesn't officially publish numbers, but the Cybertruck recall f…

Nothing useful on the status page: https://www.githubstatus.com/

I may need to work now.

The kicker for me was: only few people are allowed back the recovered Earth. Any guesses about who gets to go back and enjoy a pristine Earth?

In C any value != 0 is considered true. Nothing special about 7, he could have used any other number, but 7 is a single character, so he used that.

I try to explain to my U.S. colleagues that the fundamental difference is in the approach to funding. In the States there is a ‘gambling’ approach to funding: I fund 100 initiative…

Interesting that they limited the clause to only audio, video and chat. Looking at their definition of Customer Content it means that they can use, for example, documents you share…

When I saw the R1 chip in there and the functions it has I immediately thought: 'This is a chip they are using for sensor fusion in their self-driving moonshot, it just happens to …

Think about it these terms: originally there are 100 people in the line because the 101st will not queue since the time to get to the beginning of the line is more valuable than th…

The sample code has an error in it, it uses `model` before initializing it.

Context matters, doesn't it? Black cities were born out of need, since people of color were kicked out of their homes and had to find a place that was safe for them. The came redli…

I see a couple of straw-mans in the reasoning. First is the claim that taxation assumes that working you get paid for nothing - "When I work hard to earn money, I’m not getting som…

It's interesting to see the reaction of some of the users, "How do I know it's a legit website", as something we take for granted - look at the URL - it's not to obvious for some p…

I have a point to make, that I'm not totally convinced I believe in myself. Take this as a devil's advocate argument. Nick Cave - correctly so - says that you can't write if you ha…

My solution to this is to always use '+' email addresses - IE: "fabs+hulu@domain.com" - and I filter out all e-mails that don't have the '+' suffix as the recipient. This way dropp…

I see fully automated planes as a kind of "proof of stake" problem. Right now the person that makes the fly/no fly decision has his butt on the plane, he has a stake in a successfu…
