Here’s the problem with aggregation. Even if the if is not attributable to you as an individual the data can still be used as a weapon against you. I’ll give an example: Imagine th…

In this case we could verify if the ratio of dark matter is always the same. The article would suggest that it isn't. So this might lend possibility to the idea. There was a video …

This is the only play I can see working in the long term. Become their own content creator, aka game studio and publisher.

The only model that seems to work with GNU's philosophy while also compensating the developer fairly is that you have to create the software, or a demo of the software, and then do…

Then someone can dual license the code. Something like AGPL for general development and commercial licenses via request. This way the source is open at all times and companies that…

Start by writing very simple C code and compiling that to assembly with the C comments. Then follow the System V ABI to learn what registers you need to pay attention to when calli…

I used to play on consoles, typically would have 2-3 of them each generation and buy up the biggest AAA titles. God I can't imagine how much money I spent during those years. These…

Dark is just a placeholder until we find out exactly what's causing it.

I had the pleasure of driving through and visiting Oklahoma a decade or so ago. Some people don't like the rural states, but it felt so serene out there. We stopped at a shaved ice…

Because hiring an American requires you to treat them like a human being.

We should use Mexico. Wages will be low. Shipping can come on trucks or rail. The labor pool is plenty large. And if we get into a large war it's close enough to more easily defend…

In 5 years there'll be another shiny thing everyone will flock to. It's part of the fun, but there are some languages that just do that particular thing just right. Ruby/Rails is b…

How do you start? I can't seem to find a consistent diet plan that isn't insanely difficult to get into.

Yes, NORAD keeps track of every object above a certain size in orbit. Their data is essential to keeping spacecraft from hitting each other.

Is that the same as discarding constants in big O notation?

I'm thinking if you concentrate 10 powerful lasers at one point in the atmosphere it would be possible to generate a plasma that could be moved around at speeds that would be impos…

No.

Firefox Lockwise is very new and quite frankly doesn't have very many features that people require such as import, export, etc. At this point I don't even know how to get all my pa…

Because there's not a replacement that syncs well and is easy to teach your non-techie parents/spouse how to use to log into their shared accounts.

The rule still stands: Any headline with a question mark at the end can be met resoundingly with the answer - "No".

The game wasn't designed for you and me. It was designed for the ones that can take advantage of it with massive amounts of cash, connections, and staff to exploit it for them. Bet…

Can someone enlighten me on the benefits of LaTeX? I've never run across it or someone who uses it.

Technically, yes. It's possible to easily disassemble the wasm into wasm code. The good part is that now the target format is a standard instead of something like asm.js or minimiz…

What about the type hints they introduced? I enjoyed how you can go back and add them after the fact in separate files.

Thanks for the information. That part about disallowing third-party code interpreting is particularly painful to hear. They shut down any possibility of another browser. Could see …
