I would accept the accusation of defense of vigilantism, but I only highlighted the issue. I see it as a "Pot calls Kettle Black", but I do not advocate a response, other than that the courts handled it incorrectly. I can have fau

Indeed, Google is too big and has a massive effect on the Internet across the whole world. A single capricious decision made by Google/Alphabet can cause dozens of businesses to shutter or fail. And that is a big problem, especially if

Honestly, I'd say longer than that. The Democrats have very little impetus to do them either, given their corporate funding record. It's been about 30 years since the Democrats gave up on the working classes to cater to "Caus

I like the better question: "What is a measurement?" What does the measurement actually entail? If a computer reads the contents, does that mean the computer is entwined with it? What does our consciousness do to the measurement?

Yeah, that may be true.. But Scihub is an onion site. That means there's not much in the way of "who", but in the way of last hop before hitting the onionsite. And I would daresay that one should probably not trust logs when

Speaking of this, Utamaro's artwork is featured in one of the Freer Sackler Smithsonian Museum of Art on the Mall in Washington DC. They have an extensive amount of his artwork on display, including 3 of his largest paintings. I'm

My comment was a bit tongue-in-cheek. Who actually runs a single DB server, with no replication, no slaves, no nothing other than the primary? CA is the correct way to understand a single un-replicated DB instance. And it's really real

What's that supposed to mean? If one wants to learn anything in the sciences, we things like MIT Courseware, Arxiv, Libgen, SciHub, and "canihaspdf" on twitter. Yes, these are primarily pirate options - so what? I can publicl

That's not a valid criticism if you have intent and will to learn. As for your monads example, getting into functional programming via things like CLisp, Erlang, Haskell, and the like will expose you to lambda calc pretty darn quick. A

Sure. CA fulfills that requirement. Of course, you throw away any semblance of partition tolerance. Of course, a single machine guarantees there can be no partitioning, and really easy to obtain consensus. It might not be terribly fault-tol

What you learned, is if you develop the automation, do NOT tell others that you did. And in your case, you should have implemented a time-delay from page-generation to page-creation, to make it look like you did it. Ive automated a portion

I don't think so. It's not hard to see the beginnings of a satellite communication platforms around the Moon and Mars. And once we start looking at the local solar system, we start dealing with C being a significant source of lag.

by kefka 9y ago
Nope. Eventual Consistency seems to be the best policy. The constant "C" isn't changing (or if it is, it's not much). that means there's a definite amount of time for a DB to be consistent to cover transit around th

Perhaps you're right. But the content is about if CloudFlare will kick off booters off their platform. And he defends them, EVEN after saying they don't even pay. This isn't a "Should we let the KKK march in the streets?

Long and short, motors store power in magnetics when electricity is flowing. When its not, the coil loses its magnetization and turns back into electricity. Now think of all the electricity as one big wave. Cause that's what it is. If
