Darn, I have a laser cutter for sale very cheap - let me know if you ever want / need another one.

Didn't read the article, but people reading the article might be interested in Termux: https://termux.com/

This reminds me of Chomsky's critiques of universities' treatment of anti-war and anti Israeli scholarship. I recall him particularly defending Norman Finkelstein: https://en.wikip…

I was wondering what you were talking about. What blue boxes? Then I saw the problem. The boxes showed up in Chromium but not Firefox.

How would this compare to ZeroTier? (zerotier.com)

That website is a fake website. The real one is taler.net. See the discussion in the email list: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/taler/2018-01/msg00009.htm...

BEWARE: apparently gnutaler.org is a fake website taler.net is the correct one! source: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/taler/2018-01/msg00009.htm...

Fair enough. You may not see the difference, but one is false and the other is true. My point is that many would disagree with your assessment if only they knew that there was a mi…

This may seem pedantic, but I think your quote of the misquote is wrong. The media have been putting the period / 'full stop' within the quotation marks (not just outside which you…

Actually that quote is incorrect. It has been widely misquoted by the main stream media for their own propagandistic reasons. https://medium.com/@caityjohnstone/the-atlantic-commit…

I use Universal Password Manager (UPM). It runs everywhere, syncs to dropbox (or wherever), pretty fast start time even though it's java. Github link: https://github.com/adrian/upm…

Yes, but block chains are also integral to proof-of-stake or general byzantine fault-tolerant consensus algorithms. Do you mind me asking: Do you have a lot invested in Bitcoin?

Trust isn't a binary relationship. Computer security is hard. I trust people to try their best to not get hacked or not to get kidnapped and tortured, but alas it sometimes happens…

Joe Gregorio has a great video presentation that answers some of the questions I see posted here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GMWAHzXQnNM

The (mostly) lisp code from the first edition can be found here: https://webdocs.cs.ualberta.ca/~sutton/book/code/code.html

Wonderful! I took his machine learning coarse at the University of Alberta and we used the first edition in his class - though he didn't make it mandatory to buy his book. In any c…

Sometimes super down,down tempo is the way to go for working: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aVnLon8TvXk

Yes! I currently still use my apps.google.com account for free.

This reminds me of the buggy pic-C compiler standard library I was using. Some functions calls with particular parameters (maybe the printf family) would halt program for no appare…

I think a lot of projects use sqlite for client side persistence. I know mega ( https://mega.co.nz/ ) did.

I have friends who are twins. They too are opposite handed. They say it has something to do with sharing the womb (arms touching / pushed together?).

I've been using UPM ( http://upm.sourceforge.net/ ) for quite a few years. It's portable and full of great features.

Really? Iraq lost 4% (1.45M) of it's population due to the 2003 invasion. What did the Iraqi people get in return for these 500 9/11's?
