Nah, I've been a cheap overseas help for years. We paid for this with our $2-12/hour salaries, not the spoiled open source brats with trust funds.

TextNow worked well for me ... it's $39 a year and all my banks (and the IRS) accept it as my US phone number.

Yeah, I guess "multidimensional array" is longer and not as "deep"

What is a tensor? I remember from physics course that a tensor is some multidimensional matrix that maps vectors/matrices to other vectors/matrices, and vary from point to point in space. Looks like all arrays are called tensors n

They charge $5/TB for traffic over initial 1 TB free, and Hetzner charges $1/TB over initial 20TB free, so doesn't make sense to use them as a web server. BTW, Hetzner also has storage servers - 40TB for 64 euro, which is onl

Except that later Hawking came to the conclusion that black holes do have hairs.

In what sense thermal radiation is "random"? Normal thermal radiation is only random in the sense that it's very hard to compute all the photons given the initial states of all the electrons etc, but it's possible in pri

And there are a lot more businesses than there are OSM enthusiasts, so actually Google maps get much more crowdsourced data.

There is no "Linux" operating system. There is Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora and 1001 others. This is the primary reason GUI interface is lacking. So you must resort to command line, 50 years after computer mouse was invented.

That's kinda sad, because Apple is much bigger than Intel. And it seems those bulldozers will never stop until there is only one company in the world - my bet the final battle will be between Google and Amazon.

No, that's not why Khodorkovsky ended up in prison. He gave money to Putin's opposition, that's why. As to taxes, its laughable, the ruling mafia in Russia steals $trillions from the till and not even trying to hide it.

Some of these mention using "focus stacks". What is that, taking multiple images at different focus depth and combining them digitally?

Been in Sweden last year. Couldn't buy almost anything with cash. People have not noticed how an important liberty has been taken from them. Once cash is gone, government has complete information about you, and complete control over yo

Religion works this way: you make a false statement, and punish anyone who does not agree with it. From there you can derive and enforce any other false statement (Principle of Explosion). People in power routinely used this mechanism to ma

They didn't have to buy anything, obviously people want cheaper rides. We all remember how it was before uber.

Google doesn't work for me anyway because Google blocks VPNs (interferes with its spying I guess), but latest Firefox has a nice feature where you can conveniently select where your search goes to. So now 50% of my searches go directly

Google search engine uses 2 million computers. This is a pretty concrete barrier to entry.

Can't this be remedied by introducing a 1 second cooloff period per IP address?

Haven't noticed any improvement in my project, but there is just arrays and 4 arithmetic operations. I guess the improvements are in more complex library functions like regex.

It's much exaggerated in online dating. I'm short too, but IRL the height is less of a problem, women taller than me routinely approach me in clubs. In online dating, they just filter by height using "AND" operator, and

Nice charts ... so performance per watt is indeed 10x better for S865 vs the Ryzen.

So pull the insides of the phone out, attach a heatsink ... heatsinks cost less than LCD screens I reckon.

Looking at Geekbench charts, I see that my Samsung phone has a faster processor than my $3000 gaming rig, and it sure as hell draws less power ... so why aren't datacenters just use phones instead of Xeon and Epyc servers, what am I mi

Vegs are bred so that parasites don't eat them while they grow and bacteria don't eat them while they lay on the shelf. If neither parasites nor bacteria like them, why would humans?

The article is from 2011. The research it cites is from 1999. The data that the research used is from 1997.

And of course, government officials will be exempt from that backdoor. I would like to see CIA agreeing that FBI has "lawful" backdoor access to all their secrets.

You won't believe how pressing it is for Chinese merchants in Russia. Crypto is their only way to repatriate funds back into China, and they are moving billions that way. There is a huge ecosystem around this in Moscow currently.

When mentioning alternatives to Google search, 99% of people suggest DDG. But there are lot of good alternatives now, Qwant, SearX for example.
