It would be helpful if that site didn't just assume all visitors already know what a NeRF is.

It's almost as though sufficiently large communications providers should be regulated as utilities.

I believe that some companies making layer two network encryption gear also got a big boost around the same time.

It could also be done by requiring you to submit a photograph of yourself and your state-issued ID with intact image metadata. I wonder which would be less expensive to implement, and which would be simpler for a customer base to adopt.

There's likely a toggle switch to configure command/option vs. window/alt - I've seen that on other high-end keyboards. With linux you can use either depending on how you like to keybind.

I can't think of any work to be done for a Meta company that I'd find meaningful in any way. I imagine there are plenty of people who only figured this out for themselves after coming on board.

It's not at all surprising to me that corporations are happy to redirect people from utilities to products as core means of communicating.

There's a full-3d version that is slightly abandoned, but still fun as heck. http://scorched3d.co.uk/

Beautiful - I've been waiting for something like this since neovim was announced with enbeddability as a design goal.

The kind of synth's GP is talking about generally have no screen, dozens to hundreds of knobs and sliders, and dozens to hundreds of audio inputs and outputs for routing the signal.

Exactly. Regulated, not banned.

Devil's advocate: (I won't take on the atomic pile question since we're talking about consumables) Operating a meth lab is dangerous _because_ it's illegal. If it were regulated and licensed, it would be no more dangero

Why stop at “grow”? I don’t see why the federal government should have any say over in what chemicals I might want to purchase or manufacture.

It’s not silly at all - that’s how e.g. the first amendment works. “Congress shall pass no law limiting the freedom of …”

The other five Republican-aligned justices have amply demonstrated that they’re lying liars when it comes to their publicly-stated vs. actual intentions.

The bit about banning birth control is directly from Clarance Thomas.

Yeah but Nalgene started as laboratory kit and I would imagine doesn’t leach nearly as badly as an 0.25¢ soda bottle.

This is what happens when basic forms of communication are products instead of utilities.

Like cloud APIs, K8s replaces a ton of by-hand work that formerly made up the profession of systems administration (among others). I see my career progressions from sysadmin to devops as being a pretty natural development of "automate

Yeah, Amazon really effectively destroyed the "browsing" experience of the comixology store. Really they just destroyed the comixology store - it's been subsumed by amazon's generic storefront which is pretty pessimally

I'm more thinking "legally private" than "technically private".
115.
by bashinator 4y ago
Are you suggesting that because the only way to have truly private email (in the U.S. at least), is to own the server hardware, the property it's colocated on, and the Internet connection. Because this is true, but not helpful.

I had pretty severe tinnitus. Getting religious about earplug usage at music performances plus getting musician-specific hearing protection pretty well put it into remission. Cymbals with no earplugs are specifically the worst.

A hard lesson I've learned for naming things, is that it's almost always better to name something for what it _is_, _right now_, than for what you think it should eventually become.

The TCP window sizing algorithm happens to also be used by some ant colonies - https://biomimicry.org/introducing-the-anternet/ - it wasn't based on the ants' behavior, but it's a nifty example of some k

I apologize if there wasn't enough context to understand that both I and the grandparent of the person I replied to are Americans. When I used "we" and not "the U.S." it was because I was specifically speaking as a
