I didn’t realise that, thanks for clarifying. I wonder if this predicted supermassive black hole merger is rare for us - once in a lifetime, or we find out after LISA is operationa…

This is insane! Between 100 days and 3 years we will record what will be the single largest energy release we have ever recorded. To give an idea of our records so far: our detecti…

On the topic of Adobe and things to look out for: I paid for the full subscription for years as I got a lot of use out of it for many projects. What made me quit Adobe was their iP…

Tezos is Proof of stake, decentralized and clearly has consensus, the three things the author argues cannot occur in a proof of stake system. I did not find this post convincing es…

The missiles are US but I was under the impression the warheads on UK tridents are UK built. No US warheads involved.

This might be a good use case for Arweave.

I think you and the op are in agreement...

Unfortunately the iPhone 11 Pro has a softer screen, I had mine accumulating permanent scratches within just a few days which surprised me as every other phone I’ve owned had no is…

The last few tweets are nuts even for Elon Musk, I think it’s likely his account has been hacked.

Governments are as untrustworthy as Facebook but more scary as they have a monopoly on violence and can take away your life. The best outcome here is that Libra doesn't launch at a…

Disabled people need them, very old people need them. Drunk people need them. Lots of people could do with a driverless car.

Linux is extremely stable as a headless server. We have instances running for years with no issues. That is where Linux's reputation for stability most likely comes from. However a…

A million people die per year due to road deaths, about 40,000 of those in the USA. If what you say is true then a future where robot cars kill 500,000 per year and 20,000 in the U…

I had no idea this was happening in todays world, it is utterly barbaric. To be electrocuting someone constantly throughout their trial, it is so saddening to see society get to th…
