    Interesting, the Devonian also appears to be the period at which fish started sporting limb like appendages and muscle structures, and other animals started to explore land. Perhap…

    I believe they are implying that the US itself isn't in a healthy state. Economic disparity mostly, but also politically, socially, and likely physically. I think many would agree.…

    I can second this, Termux + Emacs turned my phone back into a personal computer. It is helpful to add extra keys to your touch keyboard, which you can do by editing your termux pro…

    Correct, going from cold compressed liquid co2 though. For supercritical CO2 one would then heat up the gas and use it as a working fluid to turn the turbines further. If you could…

    I'm curious if this method could be used along with super critical CO2 turbine generators. In other words after extracting the energy stored in compressed CO2, if you could then ru…

    There are some contradictory claims here. Boilerplate comes when your language doesn't have affordances, you get around this with /abstraction/ which leads to DSLs (Domain Specific…

    I haven't tried them, but they only require a zipcode and use ZKP (zero knowledge proofs) for payment authentication.

    I agree, but you can mitigate that to some extent by using a phone number that is not linked to your identity. Phreeli [ https://www.phreeli.com/ ] allows you to get a cell number …

    As much as I like e-ink, it has terrible refresh rates. I'd love a larger version of the Sharp Memory display technology that could support at least 80 characters wide, and perhaps…

    As a LineageOS user, I'd be interested in the disparity between GrapheneOS and LineageOS.

    I've been looking for the same for scheme and clojure. Here are a few I've found: Functional Data Structures and Algorithms, A Proof Assistant Approach by Tobias Nipkow (Ed.) [ htt…

    Curious why you believe it was broken, and is now fixed. What new development are you referring to? I agree that Patchwork kinda took a dive, and functionality started to bitrot wi…

    This could be useful for dynamic clique routing used in mesh networking in large crowds. Although I would think one would need to do the peer discover prior to any Internet shutdow…

    Most of the "alternative webs" are fairly dark forest by design. Each exists at a different variation of the OSI model. And strangely enough most that I've experienced have had ent…

    One can still use simpler contact information like a phone number, email or QR code to transfer a user id. While I love what Signal has done, the compromises are significant. I use…
