I think this is almost spot on. There is also people with just toxic personalities that everybody tries to avoid. In Europe unfortunately, is not easy to get rid of such characters…

It looks to me like an alien smiley :) of course aliens have only one eye.

What is happening with QC is very sad. Research on this topic should be a long term scientific endeavor, like nuclear fusion has been for many years. Not the circus it has been so …

The fact the department had to be dismantled to solve the issue indicates the bad actors had effectively taken over. This is clearly a failure of leadership that dragged for way to…

From my point of view YouTube with Adds is unbearable. And I don't feel the subscription service is offering as much value as any other streaming platform. If it was a bit cheaper …

MSX was a Japanese home computer standard indeed, developed in collaboration with Microsoft, who provided the BASIC ROM implementation. It became very popular in Japan and in a num…

The github project indicates "DeviceScript brings a professional TypeScript developer experience to low-resource microcontroller-based devices." If you tell me is a toy, and somebo…

Is really hard for me to understand how running an VM on a resource constrained device has any benefit. There is a reason why those devices run using very lightweight "OS"s like Fr…

They are a body shop. Subcontracting any crap permanent employees won't want to do. That's why they have so many employees, that's literally their "stock".

I think indeed one of the starting points was UZI, it is mentioned somewhere in the readme or license files.

The speed of light is the frame of reference. It remains constant for any observer no matter at which speed is moving.

It depends on the mass of the ship, but yes; quite a bit. https://www.quora.com/How-much-energy-does-it-take-to-accele... I don't think that means is unfeasible if the energy sourc…

Yeah well, we don't really know what happens at high speeds. Probably biochemistry stops working at 0.3c? It doesn't seem structural materials would remain solid at 0.95c... who kn…

With a spacecraft big enough to live in, we are talking of a time frame not too different from the one from the age of exploration by sea. I have no doubt many people would want to…

Definitely a common sense step in the right direction. Humans going anywhere beyond the moon using chemical propulsion seems quite problematic due to all the unsolved issues relate…

I guess this is bad news for the AR market. Apple delaying entry means technology is not mature enough for a quality consumer product that can go into the mainstream and indicate t…

Seriously? It looks to me that guy is perfectly aware is talking bullshit. And disparaging archaeologists is part of the publicity game. He is just an entertainer trying to make mo…

The problem with Graham Hancock is that he pretends to be scientific while disparaging the actual scientists. If he wants to write science fiction, great; is entertaining. But pret…

I know about this project for long time and in my opinion is an excellent educational resource. As an exercise I re-targeted chibicc to z80 without any problem and it was lots of f…

"In a working paper published last year, Chiara Franzoni of the polimi Graduate School of Management and Paula Stephan of Georgia State University look at a number of measures of r…

Some time ago I saw a presentation from the chaos computer club where an expert on the matter explained there is a lot of misunderstandings about hydrogen technology as an energy s…

I was an enthusiastic user of Airbnb until I faced the reality of the platform on a trip to Seul. After being offered to sleep in what looked like a maintenance closet because the …

The market for security cameras is very old fashioned and plagued with proprietary implementations. ONVIF is the standard that allows interoperability with desktop Video Management…

I have the feeling is in midlife when people switch careers, so 43 doesn't sound strange to me. You have to be ready to take an income cut though, at least at first. Other than tha…
