I think from a legal standpoint, they’re on firm ground with simply censoring them under the “missing context” category. Everything under the sun could arguably be said to be missing context. Where they went too far is with their “hoax aler

How long a notice period is long enough? Looking at it another way, Google's most recent net profit is $18.94 billion per quarter. I have no idea but if there are 1 million G Suite Legacy accounts out there at $60 per year. That woul

At first I ignored the entire HN submission because I've been taught that carbon sequestration will never be a solution to atmospheric carbon. On a whim I clicked on the comments though expecting the first comment to be, "This wil

For what it’s worth, I clicked on the HN link on my iPhone and it opened in the Twitter app (that I never use) and it was extremely readable. Literally no problems reading it at all.

The person who did this and the other projects on that site is pretty amazing. There is no “About Me” page which is surprising!

I went 64->128->8088. When I went with the 10 MHz 8088 with a 40 MB hard drive I also looked at the alternatives of getting either the Amiga 500 or just getting a Lt. Kernal 20 MB hard drive for my 128. The driving factor for needing

Funny that BCH and BSV claim that it’s BTC that are the scammers. The BSV folks are particularly vocal that BTC is a fraud. I have a friend of mine that retired at 40 from working at a hedge fund and investing his personal money well. Bough

I highly recommend watching the new Cosmos with Neil Degrasse Tyson. When it first came out I made a big production of it with my kids. They got to eat popcorn and drink soda while we all watched the series together. They (and I) still look

I think your method has worked well for me. I use Microsoft ToDo as a tool for it. It has a My Day list that automatically clears itself each day (by copying to Tasks). You can then re-add to your My Day list as needed.

Sounds like a habit tracker would be a good tool for this. I use Productive but I hesitate to recommend it because of how aggressively it tries to get you to convert to paid version.

The connection speed varied from 1200 bits/s in the 80s to 56600 bits/s in the 90s As my username will attest to, 300 bps modems were very common in the 80s. I got my first one in 1985.

There is no censorship resistance with blockchain. You’re still beholden to the whims of centralized developers and miners. You’re still beholden to a court order. If the government wants to confiscate your crypto assets they can simply put
