You don't even need a setup like that to feel that pain. That pretty accurately describes my experience with those websites - and many others - with just a 24" 1920x1200 monitor. The weird silver lining is that most sites are also

That characterization of computational neural networks is particularly true in any meaningful way. And being able to "correctly" anthropomorphize them is absolutely not the goal. Computational neural networks are not models of bio

Uh, yeah... The post opens with a mention of being inspired by OpenBSD and goes into some detail on differences between their approach and OpenBSD's throughout.

I assume this is collecting some downvotes because it's unclear if the second sentence is supposed to apply specifically to the long covid population or the general population. Based on the submitted paper, if it is intended to apply s

Only if you were actually going to be influenced to buy the thing in the first place. And it's not like the various bits of advertising from a sponsorship go entirely unnoticed in many circumstances, with various requirements to add te

Adblocking seems very distinct from theft to me, but thankfully even that is irrelevant with SponsorBlock. Those sponsorships don't pay via impression and only the channel themselves could really try to track impressions anyway. You&#x

While there are other options as you pointed out, I'm not sure it's realistic to say they're more likely an effective deterrent than prison. People pay tons of money to avoid prison, even temporarily - see lawyers, bail, etc.

It depends a lot on what kind of crime you're dealing with. This isn't a matter of teaching the executives of Hertz that no, they don't need to commit crimes to survive, and how to access alternative means of survival, and al

They may have missed it, as I did. The current update fits pretty well exactly on my screen, so I saw no hints that it was a series. After seeing the usual corporate speak and signoff, I assumed that was it. I went looking in their history

The VPN is a funny one. Aside from appearances and legal realities, it's a great fit for them. It doesn't require a bunch of risky investment, and the whole VPN thing relies on trust anyway. I can't think of an organization o

I don't like the situation either, but I find it hard to blame Mozilla for not pushing monetization hard enough. I can't think of anything more I'd like Mozilla to actually do. I'm rather against being sold out, and susp

My current thought on this is that the git model (or at least the interface for it) is probably a touch too simple to accommodate all the things people want to use it for. As a result, you get this whole 'clean history' vs 'w

Just because it hasn't seen activity in awhile doesn't mean it can't be used at all. Sure, you're not going to want to start up a major project with a long-abandoned language experiment, but frankly it's not much of

> When a company has cash that it can't invest as profitably as its shareholders could do on their own, it's obligated to pay it to them as a dividend. Aside from, as far as I know, not being any kind of legal obligation... I d
