I'm all for EVs, but half of PM10 pollution is independent of engine type as it comes from brake and tire wear: http://publications.jrc.ec.europa.eu/repository/bitstream/JR... So direct environment impact is

Can't find the following argument in the replies: respect your visitors by not showing cloudflare's spinners and other bs in their faces. If your site is static, a VPS would carry it a long way. I once hosted a tiny video site - 5

I've experienced something similar and I believe D3 is not to blame. I took 5k iu oil softgels and got a unique and indescribable BAD feeling. It crept up very gradually over the course of a month and a half and I had a hard time reali

> 25 an hour - the bottom decile wage for software engineering You should be aware that most software engineers in the world live outside of US. Most of them make less than that. But that's just nitpicking. The problem with your log

There is a flood of fake SSDs currently, mostly big brands. I've recently purchased counterfeit 1TB. It passes all the tests, performance is ok, it works... except it gets episodes where ioping would be anything between 0.7 ms and 15 s

It could've been funny, but every second of this video reminds me of my own experiences of dealing with the government services.

There is definitely an abundance of low-skill jobs... so far. So the choice is between different shops, not about homelesness.

Double bollocks. First, you're striping agency from those workers blaming abstract society instead. There is no such thing as "collective guilt". Those particular workers are free to leave such an unsafe industry at any momen

In my experience shrinkflated products already use inferior ingredients, so it's a very useful signal that should be boosted, not eliminated. So putting a warning is a good thing, but shaming is not. To develop the idea further, most g

>This proof of work doesn't mean crypto currency Well, yes, I should've said 30 years, not 10. You can start educating yourself on cryptocurrencies with the monero case: monero payments were used instead of captcha on an intern

You're trying to solve a straightforward engineering problem with an unfit solution to an ill-defined problem. The solution of sybil problem would not solve the case of coordinated attack by multiple nefarious agents. You can also call

And why do we need this assumption exactly?

DDoS has nothing to do with sybil attacks. DoS happens because limited resource (connection initiation) is provided for free. They chose memory-hungry algorithm because that would prevent use of specific hardware (ASICs).

It's a shame that Torproject has decided to reinvent its own wheel, lagging 10 years behind the crypto crowd, instead of integrating with existing coin(s). The problem is, such integration would require the chosen coin to be anonymous,

Assuming 3 backslashes per iteration, one iteration per second - it would take 16 years to get to 1.5GB. This code problem looks deeper to me.

The very first article I clicked is "analysis" of Levada polls. This is pure garbage. In the land where all sorts of police get involved over child's drawing the phone poll has value just above zero. I am yet to see any forme

Algorithm exists and is non-trivial, therefore it favors those groups of posters that spend more effort to hack it.

Not an escalation of course. Bullying 101: maximize damage (emotional or physical) while remaining technically not liable. To increase damage further ramp up the frequency of such incidents. If other side retaliates - make them liable.

My tangential hypothesis is: the virus was intentionally leaked prematurely to vaccinate humanity from real bio-weapon it would be developed into.

The whole point of the movie is to show that part of soviet union that is not covered by historical facts. So most of it is a fiction but a very realistic one and intentionally so.
