I question your information as that is so definitely not my life experience.

They don’t actually really like being called Native American though. That’s kind of a white thing. Well, that's a big lie. I grew up on a reservation, an Indian Service Area, and s…

They do so little with the concept and tooling its easy to forget how Powershell works.

Are you intentionally ignoring the large Native American population in some of those states? [edit: at this point I just assume that folks on HN don't have any concept of the demog…

It does make one wonder what happens if everything is a type instead of a file. Do you get a command line that looks like Mathematica? I too think every program containing a parser…

We in ND just got our first winter storm and it was bad enough to cancel work. We are not exactly apt to cancel because of snow. I get the feeling this is not going to an easy year…

Last I checked, Nova doesn't do keyboard macros and I do a lot of text munging and need them because I refuse to type the same sequence multiple times.

Built in keyboard macros that don't suck. Speed too.

It was my understanding that every study has a control group getting the standard care. I didn't see a study without such a control group.

I don't feel guilt, I still feel rage. I didn't determine any of the parameters or rules of the trial so I have no guilt on me. I just observed that the control group is dead becau…

Everyone knew the results of "standard treatment", that's why they were researching the drug. There were years and years of statistics. We killed 70% of the control group. Doomed b…

I worked on one in the 90's that was $50,000 a day for three years. The drug company, assuming the trial was successful, had about 4 years to make all its money back before the pat…

Well, don't skip the DragonFly folks. I've had the four main one up and running at different times.

I think Bill seriously underestimates the value of defensive fire. Or, most people actually prepping will also think of defense.

I think there are different varieties of preppers, and some have communities. Frankly, by some definitions, I'm a prepper which is rather surprising. I think if you live rural you …

The funny thing is I tried to setup and Arch Linux box. I can setup OpenBSD with thinking with all the partitions and such, but that Arch Linux install was just a bad time. I'll tr…

I'm much more familiar with OpenBSD and FreeBSD on the server-side, and I don't feel real comfortable with Linux. The two biggest vendors, Red Hat and Ubuntu, don't really give the…

I tell people that I haven't looked forward to new features in the 'California' era like I did in the 'Cat' era. Now, I worry about what Apple will break or take away. If Microsoft…

Our findings confirm that zebra stripes repel biting flies under naturalistic conditions and do so at close range Which has lead to suggestions to breed this into livestock. Which …

Cargill would have an amazingly high valuation just due to all the assets owned.

If I remember the law correctly, you can also announce without notice and pay a severance that covers 60 days.

the experimental Servo browser engine How is building a new browser engine not supporting Firefox?

I really feel that Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, Inc. v. Goldsmith[0] is going to have a big effect on this type of thing. They are basically relying on their AI magi…
