People who get excited enough about politics in this country to shoot someone are stupid. Love him or hate him, Charlie is just somebody's puppet. If you see them on twitter or television, they are puppets. Puppeteers are smart enou

Teletext had a better run in Europe for the same reason as public transport: higher population density. It is more economical when you can spread the cost over more customers. In places as sparsely populated as flyover US & Canada, th

Their CSS implementation is broader than what most actual browsers had 10 years ago. I would not have commented if I weren't already painfully familiar. https://docs.gtk.org/gtk3/css-overview.html It even has a D

Electron is bringing an entire web browser in to provide a cross-platform user interface. GTK has become almost a web browser to provide a cross-platform user interface. That is why I started off with > CSS classes To spell it out, I t

USA was based on the principles of Locke & Paine, and we also kill on a large scale. Israel was based on the principles of Theodor Herzl, et. al., and they kill on a large scale. Maybe people just like mass murder when they think they

If a man who has been dead for over 142 years is a threat to " the principles of the free democratic basic order ", they couldn't have been worth that much to begin with. And it is a lie. Germany is not a free country. Ger

I was thinking more along the lines of Havana Syndrome. The brain is an electro-chemical system, so this is as much a biology question as it is a physics one. Direct enough wattage at it for long enough, who knows what the effects will be

Putting too much stock in coherence. Sunlight is not coherent, but throw enough of it at a target, and things happen. Little moments of constructive interference are enough for an effect. From your article: > Note that the thinned arra

Google says their 8,094 satellites use phased arrays. I wonder what would happen if you directed a few hundred of these phased arrays at a single target?
