It's a shock when you try to switch mental gears from reading something like a HEP paper, talking about 3 sigma like a big "Well, it could be interesting, probably not." Then you read a front-page "study" about some

I think the authors would appreciate you learning more than you giving money for an out of print book, that probably doesn't net them (or their estates) a dime. It really is a good read, and the first book that really helped me to begi

When I first started asking friends about SR/GR, they pointed me to 'Gravitation' by Misner, Thorne, and Wheeler. I really appreciated the "dual track" nature of the book, and for a long time it acted as my "Wh

Broken kneecaps speak for themselves, "I was tased, and it REALLY hurt! I was terrified and alone in the cold and dark, naked, for hours, I thought I was going to die many times!" is... harder to understand and harder to prove.

Because it involves trusting that no one made copies of the key, turning a locked door into a backdoor? Your mitigation ideas are sound though, and could also be used as a kind of rolling canary trap.

Arms are now, and have been since the days before the ass' jawbone, just a kind of technology. I think increasingly the value lies in technology which doesn't have killing someone as its primary function. That's true for you

Given the pitch in the article, I think they may be switching up for "Ministry of Truth".

Seconded on Fastmail. They also don't seem to be interested in selling your info.

As to the secure enclave, the very nature of a target that's in SO MANY hands, means that's it's unlikely to ever remain secure from a motivated state. It's such a catch-22... buy into the mass production, or have someth

I'm sure the nation-state actors couldn't be happier about the confusing nature of that, and cultivate it within reason.

Sorry, I'm not buying what you're selling, and I did a bit more research on the term "Cultural Marxism". So... yeah, nice try.

...Which doesn't even mention "Cultural Marxism". What I did find is this from Wikipedia: 'Cultural Marxism' in modern political parlance commonly refers to a conspiracy theory which sees the Frankfurt School as pa

I live in a combination of bliss that uBlock Origin exists, and mortal terror that it's eventually going to go away.

You know, I'm not sure how appropriate this is for HN, but it fits the situation so perfectly and it's SFW so... http://45.media.tumblr.com/533291d1f4ccb721cd36baa04b97298e/...

"Cultural Marxist"... irony?

I was waiting for something too, even something flimsy. I guess the takeaway is that until this is studied and probably put into practice in pilot programs like HN's and others', we're just going to be subjected to load of

Being careful is expensive, and as of this moment the people who are going to be landing on Mars first want to make a profit. Considering how we treat life that we're absolutely sure exists, and is a lot more complicated and near to us

Site is fine if you use Ghostery, NoScript, and Ublock Origin together though.

Maybe, or maybe it will just be a reason to build a wildly expensive, "National Drone Defense Network". Haha... who needs roads, bridges, and sewers anyway?!

I mean, it's a French organization, give them time to establish a presence outside of Europe. I think they're only just taking notice of us here in the colonies. dry chuckle

Of course, you may find that the impact which caused the fire has also rearranged those fairly separated parts. Still, that's predicated on a crash, which is at the very least, fair warning that more things are likely to be going wrong
