El Niño sends the jet stream southward. Once the jet stream gets far enough south it tears apart any developing storms in the Gulf and Caribbean Sea before they have a chance to become a problem.

Start by banning disposable vapes. The sheer waste of lithium from those fucking devices is insane in 2026. We need every scrap of it we can get!

We don't need a VAT. Taxes on consumption are insanely regressive. Put a tax on the value of land instead of the property improvements. Then you'll start to see some wealth flow away from the UHNWIs.

Yep. Take every seat, make it 15 seats. Ideally we’d have ranked choice and STV. Something like how Australia has a quota system for Senators being elected. People who achieve 1/16th of the votes get a seat, distribute preferences, rep

The problem is that open codecs can still be encumbered by patents and the holders will sue. VP9 and AV1 have their own patent pool for that very reason. Google may have open sourced its codecs but if they don’t indemnify users people who

The electorate does give control but they get bored after a few years and want to wreck everything all over again. It's goldfish levels of political memory in this country.

Getting pristine resampling is insanely expensive and not worth it. If you have a mixer at 48KHz you'll get minor quantization noise but if it's compressed already it's not going to do any more damage than compression already

And we learned zero from the change after shutting down the Purdues. The electorate just wants to see drug users punished, not treated. Even though treating cheaper, more humane, and has way better outcomes.

Given that xAI only has a few billion in cash on hand? Very fucking low. It'd bankrupt Elon before reaching that stage though.

Fuck him and people like him. There's no good reason to have a 70 hour work week other than insecure management needing it as a security blanket like some nine year old child. Researchers keep showing how human beings have a maximum pr

Errors work just like exceptions especially if you use the ? operator and let the error bubble up the chain. This is the Rust equivalent of an unhandled exception and the ripcord being pulled.

Probably because our desire to help and not let down a person we care about gives us courage. That courage serves as motivation to go outside our comfort zone.

> The mod injects only in the process Winlogon.exe, and exits once the handle of the memory area is closed. It does not hook any functions. Yep. Sure. Going to let a Russian utility fuck with winlogon.exe. Excellent idea.

Normally this would be handled by a wider synchronized network. The EU has a continent wide synchronized network and the UK isn’t part of it. There are also other ways to store energy. For polar regions sand batteries are capable of storing

Need to go Apple style where the AES engine is on die. Only the AES engine and the Secure Enclave know the decryption keys. The CPU doesn't know the decryption key. Nothing is sent in clear text over the bus.

Because the A18 had its L2 and LLC caches slashed in half. Frequency and uarch improvements don’t matter if you can’t keep the ports fed.

It's a double edged sword. The problem is that there's a lot of bad actors out there. You know why Apple doesn't let companies get access to the raw camera data on the Vision? Because Meta is salivating at getting inside peop

They can do it with 3D NAND because the electrons are injected into the charge storage medium through brute force. The problem is that the capacitance scales with area. We're reducing the node size but now the aspect ratios are insane
