There's a few different actions. First, since it isn't developed the paper effectively acts extremely slowly. Whereas normal photographic paper would be around 6 or up to 20 ISO, doing it this way is almost immeasurably slow. Gett

I have a friend who did that for a few months and it took her iirc 2 years to get over the gum fixation.. even without nicotine, she always had to have some gum for cravings I think she was chewing the nicotine gum a few times a day, but I&

I think the key with vaping (not necessarily with Juul though due to market availability) is that it's very easy to decrease the dosage of nicotine without reducing the fixation amount. For traditional cigarette smoking you want a high

Honestly, they go to bed at the time the parent sets a routine after probably 3 or 4yo. My kids consistently go to bed at 9pm for school, 10pm on weekends/summer, and typically no problems going to sleep or waking up in the morning. It

Really cool, see a few missing film types (Superia 800 and 1600, Cinestill 800T/Vision3 500T) would also be really interesting if there was listings for cross-processing, especially of slide film in C-41. Each stock has its own set of

There was no disclosure that they were hemorrhaging money nor that their product was significantly unprofitable though. I imagine interest would've been a lot less had that fact been public at the time. They were literally selling it a

Along that same line, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas is a pretty good movie at warning that playing it fast and loose with recreational drugs beyond alcohol can have you end up with a very bad time

I remember my first digital camera. I think it was a somewhat pricey ($200) point and shoot. It was around 2002 or 2003. It was so awesome to get "scans" off the camera with just an SD card... but, it had it's drawbacks. It w

I would think the real test is to do some pulling on the cable to make sure it's reasonably sound structurally, and also maintaining 10 GBit at the spec maximum for cat-6... but really if it works for however long you run it, what does

The credit is currently wrong, it should belong to one of the developers on my team, David Jaenson. My comment was an early disclosure before I fully understood how sensitive the details were. Even without going into detail or providing any

Actually it only seems to be a side effect of our test environment. Using a more realistic environment makes it not effective, sorry for the false alarm

This has happened with other, much smaller, cryptocurrencies. The choice usually agreed upon by exchanges, developers, and community is to pick a known good block before the attack and fork the chain backwards from that point. It requires s

As a hater of the EVM and person directly trying to replace this shit, here is my rebuttal: First, smart contracts don't have a private key, at least not in the meaning of the word. They do the equivalent of signing by sending a messag

There appears to be a workaround to bypass the assert check in Bitcoin Core 0.16 that allows one to mint new coins by using an input multiple times and it be accepted by the network without crashing. Probably will be waiting until the dust

Don't forget, you also need to make sure your code will never break [1] by an Ethereum blockchain upgrade or security fix too. [1]: https://www.reddit.com/r/ethereum/comments/57ork1/ive_made_a...

There is a way around it, but it's complicated, expensive (in terms of gas), and thus I have never seen anything similar deployed yet. Basically, use a proxy contract with some form of governance built in to it. The governance is compr

Disclaimer: co-founder of Qtum Qtum sounds like the thing you could be looking for. To TL;DR; it, Qtum is a smart contract platform on an independent blockchain that supports PoS (not DPoS, true PoS) and designed to support multiple smart c

That is partly why I had rather just develop my own for black and white. For color the process looks painful enough that I'd rather send it to a lab though

The better question I think is why wear a suit, ever. There are some people who genuinely enjoy wearing a suit (I know at least one), but in general it seems the only reason to wear a suit is to impress someone. (either because you want to,
