Oh it's much worse than that. They only accept member fees paid by SEPA transfers . As in Single Euro Payment Area. Don't live in a country that uses the Euro or is part of the EU? Your money isn't welcome here. What a d

I guess you haven't spent much time in Europe recently. Deregulation is considered a swear word over there. I do not advise using it around Europeans. Also, if you say something that sounds like "free speech" their heads ex

The cellular carriers very obviously already have a system like this for location tracking. Their tower dumps contain enough metadata to determine all the people who spend most workdays at office buildings in McLean Virginia. And then, of

Or they're trying to distract attention from the fact that they've already sold out 100% of the fab capacity available to produce these chips for the next two years. So really, they lose nothing. They've already booked sales

This is false. The phrase "including cooling" occurs nowhere in the article. The word "cooling" alone appears seven times, none of them in the context of specific power numbers.

I told them they shouldn't give the insurance company their SSN. There is no "someone else" who will give the insurer this information.

The problem is Turing-completeness. A consequence of Rice's Theorem is that there can never be a useful, enforced distinction between the garbagepile that we have right now and anything more than "no JS". Before WHATWG hijack

I checked it out, and it doesn't seem to do anything at all if you have javascript turned off.

Bare HTML never goes out of style. My archive doesn’t use any JavaScript at all, it’s just HTML with the smallest amount of classless CSS I could get away with I love you, will you marry me? Can you make the rest of the web like this? Th

Actually you can. Just don't give them your SSN. I did this with Kaiser Permanente and it continues to work just fine.

4-5kW to extract how many picowatts of heat from the system? You can't quote a number for the cryocooler without knowing how much heat is being injected into the thing it needs to keep below 4.2K.

In grad school I extrapolated the charts showing joules per bit of computation, looked at where it intersected the landauer limit compared to my own lifespan, and immediately lost interest in adiabatic computation. No regrets yet.

- Superconductors are lossy with AC signals, is this loss not a big problem? In this logic style, data are represented with fluxons. One fluxon is the quantum unit of flux. You can't have "half a fluxon" in a superconduct

Long-term rentals aren't typically taxed heavily. Since the tax is simply passed on to the tenant, you're just taxing the poor. Frankly, owner-occupied vs renter-occupied is not a helpful distinction here. Instead, tax short-te
