I try to learn enough of a language to be polite (Hello, Please, Thank You, How Much, "I don't speak ____") but I found I could make myself understood in much of Europe with English. The only exception was Spain, but fortunat

_may have_. Those are weasel words. Why demonize a nation and a group of people because of Apple's buggy operating system that's falsely marketed as "Secure by design?"

Wow! Good for Microsoft. You don’t see Apple releasing patches for 15+ year old operating systems.

I eat some pea protein products, like "Pea Milk" and some veggie burgers, but it always tastes like peas to me. OK in a burger, but not so much in milk. It's a shame that wheat protein has been demonized. It's a very &qu

Here in Israel, where I spend about half my time split between Tel Aviv and Silicon Valley, it's called not by the Hebrew term for "smoked salmon" but by the Yiddish word "לאָקס" (spelled as לוקס in Hebrew) I was bo

Gait recognition is pretty effective, too! https://nypost.com/2018/11/06/chinas-latest-recognition-tech... And that's perfectly OK according to the SF City Council.

We use the BEAM with native language NIFs to do numeric computation on Nvidia GPUs with CUDA/C++. Works great. JVM wouldn't help us much (and would be much more unstable due to JVMs inherent problems with memory leaks and performa

Are you involved with anything that would make you think you'd be worth someone's time and money to be spying on? Most likely it was a wrong number.

But no "government" was involved. This is a private company with international investors. Why isn't anyone mad at Apple who (falsely) advertises iOS as being "Secure By Design?"

How about: "Operate Raspberry Pi v1 camera in global exposure mode (instead of rolling shutter)" It's a great project! We used to do this with modified Canon 5Ds at a company I worked for and it was very expensive to set up

Fuller brush bought Schick. Now they're Fuller-Schick. Did you hear what happened to Helena Rubinstein? Max Factor.

Simply untrue. Also the alphabet and many words and roots were flourishing as part of Ladino and Yiddish.

I won't use electronics and certainly not a cellphone on the Jewish Sabbath. A "Smart Lock" that requires a cell phone is unfair for people who choose to opt-out of using technology for whatever reason.

This is simply a lie. The Hebrew language never died, and Jews have continuously lived in Israel all this time. There was no mass conversion of the "Khazaars."

You can get well over 2000 years, though. I've been to most of these sites: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ancient_synagogues_in_Israel The Hebrew Language goes back at least 3000 years (and of course, to the crea

I stopped taking an income because taxes got too high. Investments plus spouse income pushes us into the highest tax bracket for State and Federal (CA is up to 14.5% with both "millionaire taxes) added in. It wasn't worth giving u

Well, why not?! If it weren't for the ability to move, California, New York, and MA would probably have state tax rates of 50% by now.

I like the Pic16 because you need very little external circuitry other than the chip to get a computer running.
