It's even worse than that. P2P means that connection differences between peers also makea difference. User A might see users B and C, but user B might on see A due to a connection …

It depends on why they have an operation loss. If they’re leasing the trademark from a Cayman island shell corporation, then that would be noteworthy.

The amount of fiat available, and it’s value is not constant so it’s not really zero sum.

The default Go http server is 1.1, no?

P2P group video calls don’t work well unfortunately. Most people barely have enough upload bandwidth to upload one video stream. Needing to upload a stream per peer is a nonstarter…

Emulating the past for success in the future is a form of idea homogenization.

Sorry, but state is everything. If you don’t have state, then you’re essentially doing useless work computing an answer that is already known. Computation is only useful because of…

Where do they promote the product? It looks like they’re using a random http library.

What’s amazing about Dr. Suess is how much creativity and fun he packs into a very simply written book. Most children’s books are so asinine. “Sally went to the farm. She saw a pig…

That seems pretty crazy. What have you tried to remedy the issue? Fecal transplant?

What makes beans better than psyllium husk, which has been shown to substantially lower cholesterol?

Yes exactly. So I’m not sure how a company can change $5 a month, with their own overhead and profit margin, and still make money.

$5 a month doesn’t seem like it would work out economically with the price of GPUs. Why not buy a powerful computer and finance it?

I don’t know who in their right mind would want to be a teacher. Bad pay, hard work, ungrateful students and parents, and limited opportunities for growth.

What gives you the authority to define vernacular? Stated another way, words mean what people understand them to mean. Most people would understand crypto to mean cryptocurrency at…

It’s almost like there is no collective we, just loosely associated individuals carrying out their desires to the best of their abilities.

But why conserve? If they find a use for that excess power then they could better their life or the lives of others.

Or you saved the response from a different curl request, or it’s checked into git, or a million different reasons.

It would be great if this material could help with brain damage in contact sports by making helmets better.

You can have curl read the request body from a file using --data @filename.txt.

Maybe it’s just me but I’ve never had those issues. Another benefit of curl is that you have an easily searchable history of every command you’ve run. So you can easily find old in…

Doesn’t curl do this just as easily?

The FBI did something similar once: https://nakedsecurity.sophos.com/2021/04/14/fbi-hacks-into-h...

That’s not my take at all. Many people respond with hand waving arguments: maybe epoll is faster because the benchmark is wrong, or only one file descriptor is used (which wasn’t c…

Manifest Destiny was basically the belief that the US was destined to span coast to coast, regardless of the Native Americans or Mexicans that stood in the way. It’s a very imperia…
