This has not been my experience as a consumer trying to buy 18650 batteries for my 3.3V ESP-8266 projects. Is there a good place to buy these? Searching Amazon for them shows me tons of AA and AAA batteries but no actual 18650's. In th

I've been switching to DDG as well and I haven't noticed my life change in any measurable way. You might be right and my results may have been better using Google, but I am willing to make that sacrifice in order to participate in

To function at youtube scale, you need access to multiple backbones. Yes, I agree, Sprint will run an OC3, or fiber, what have you, to your office anywhere in America for $15,000 a month, but that will still be several hops from UUNET. That

I think this is the way of the future and it's exciting to think about. Who you are is yours, not some other social media sites. You control what is and is not available. That would be good.

My initial impression is a return to on-premise data centers but with cheaper, commodity hardware and a software stack on top. They are doing for on-prem with hotswappable computers in a cloud what hot swappable hard drives did for on-prem

I'd like to see some real metrics. All the words are subjective and the technical ones are common to other databases as well. How many results can it return in how many seconds from a table with how many rows? Can it do full text index

I actually think wordpress has contributed significantly to the decline of the web. It's not secure. It proliferates so it's easy to hack. It's easy to embed untested plugins in it that are also vectors. It's plagued by

It's time for a new search engine -- and no, ddg is not it. We need a search engine that doesn't search the new internet. The instagrams, the pinterests, the wikihows, the seemingly every single blog on the internet that is design

"Just for being compatible" is disingenuous at best. Ask yourself, "Why did they copy the Java API? Why didn't they use Python or Go or Dart?" They invented Dart after all.

You aren't exactly correct. Cement is a binder. Cement can be used to bind rammed earth. I think you mean to say "Concrete." There is a difference. Rammed earth will crack in a flat application just like concrete, which also

No, it's more analogous, but worse so, IMO, to copying all the sentences of the book in a manner like this: "Jack and Jill ran down the hill." into "Gil and Jacky descended the mound." It's exactly the same sto

You are a private entity. You can write software. If you do, you should have the same rights as Oracle does on software it owns. Corporations are people and you are people. Private entities create things of value and share them with an ince

Google is not greedy? Oracle paid money for Sun and the property Sun owned at the time. Google said, nope, we'll just copy that property for ourselves and keep our money. That seems greedier.

Software is both patentable and copyrightable, so there's no blurry line here. You are trying to say it's blurry, but it's quite clear.
