The North American development pattern is unsustainable. It costs more money than to maintain than could possibly be paid for by property taxes. It's wildly inefficient in basically every way. We've been okay for a while since we

I've been deeply interested in this issue for years, and my impression is that IQ just isn't that strong a lens of analysis. It's incredibly difficult to prove which way the causality goes. A quick example of this: There has

When I was bored in school I ran down the original source for the claim on the Honey Badger wikipedia page that they can take several bullets and keep coming. It turns out that the source was a book, which was citing a news story, which was

Very true, I picked this example as a thing that kids could theoretically be doing right now. You don't have to go very far back at all to get into the really heinous stuff. There's a big complicating factor in what parents would

I think there's an interesting phenomenon where the lower bound of "bad influences" has gotten much lower in a lot of places that used to be safe. Previously, bad influences were limited to what your local neighborhood kids

Cell carriers would generally be tracking you via cell tower triangulation, which can't be rebuffed with software, but that's why the PinePhone has a switch to physically power off the modem (and thus antenna) which does prevent t

You can't use VLC as a server, but you can use it as a DLNA client. That setup would be a media server on your desktop (I'd recommend Jellyfin for this, there's a windows app) which broadcasts a DLNA server on your local netw

There are engines across the spectrum, but you might like Godot. I find it does enough for you that you can jump right in to programming your actual game, while giving you access to the nitty gritty if you want it.

The article seems to define genius by how socially popular the individual is? But that's a terrible metric. Is the difference between Einstein and a cutting edge quantum physicist today marketing ? He might be right in his conjecture
