Oh. I didn't know that. The page is pretty vague about what physical channels it uses so I just assumed it was on top of the internet. None of that stuff would have enough bandwidth for regular internet use, and clandestinely broadcast

You're putting a lot of weight on the distinction between drowsy and sleep deprived in a casual comment at the end. How many people really know the distinction and use the correct word in the correct situation? He's clearly lookin

In that case, why would you sign it in the first place? Maybe you're too careless to read the contract? Or too desperate to plan for your future working life? But how did you become such a specialist with those behaviors? I once has an

"cannot be subjected to outside control, manipulation or censorship" Even in China? When I used to live there, I'd sometimes hear about some fancy anti-censorship software or service and it invariably didn't actually wor

"serving impressions to half the country" you're still confused about the meaning of the information. Average people probably see hundreds or thousands of social media posts in a month so if only one of them is from the troll

For some bands, the opportunity for abuse is low because it's only allowed to be used at low power or for voice or other limitations that don't scale up much. But cellphone data has more demand than the spectrum can provide. If th

I looked at half of them and found nothing about how much stuff people see on social media is this. One apparently had its content seen by 140 million Americans. So what does that mean from the point of view of an individual? Is it most of

You've fallen for a conspiracy theory. This is something people say over and over again but without any data to support it.

He might be right though. If it's going to be impossible to compete with SpaceX, however talented the engineers are, they can still make money for a while being the backup that the government wants even if they never produce anything t

That responsibility only goes as far as other people are willing to block them for not doing it. There's no law of the internet that says you have to, but if your customers can't access your service because their ISP or whatever b

Would you say that once a model is trained, there's no need to go back and re-train it, even if you want to, say, remove some material from the training set? Anything can be done just with the weights? That's a big surprise to me.

You keep asserting this but without any reason. Do you have a reason? It seems to go against the general open source idea of source code being convenient for people to modify.

Wasn't Israel invented to provide that? It's hard to think of a more effective immigration policy than "free entry for Jews".

Why that restriction? Deciding the direction employees work in is part of the CEO's job. If he directed them badly (say, to work on a project that fails because he misjudged the market), the company would make less money and it would b

With his rhetorical question, he's saying it must be malice because no museum operator would be that incompetent. They're actively making a false claim to their customers. They could have just not said anything about the age of th

If they have 350 employees, then they double the company's profit, I suppose they just generated 350x times the value of an average employee. If they have more employees, they only need to increase it a smaller proportion to be generat

One downside is that if (when) the equipment fails, it'll be unfair to whoever happened to be lumped with the bad one and it would sometimes be hard to prove if it was the equipment's fault or the athlete's. With their own bi

It doesn't matter what the individual words mean, the term UBI refers to income without any means testing. That's just how it's defined.

We must hang out in different places. Are you seeing all that racism directly or had it been curated and presented to you by leftists to show off how racist rightists are? That's a big problem with social media - highlighting the extre

Not saying Python's any better. Though how do you make a Python program work on 3.x but not 3.x+1? I thought they had ended backward-incompatibility with the 2 to 3 update? My experience with C/C+=/Fortran problems is not jus

It's not really a scientific study. More of a story about some parents who threw the kitchen sink of hippy treatments (including homeopathy) at their kids by reading books, listening to podcasts(?), and hiring lots of specialists. Mayb

Don't be so quick to assume racism. You don't see people blaming Microsoft's cock-ups on Indians who are not DEI hires but would be a valid target for racists. I think blaming DEI hires for problems is mostly people who don&#

Even then, it would surely take centuries for the cost of building underground to be paid off in power savings from the cost of air conditioning. Who's going to plan that far ahead, especially in the middle of unpredictable climate cha

It all seems a bit marginal. Nobody actually uses the definitions to measure anything anyway, least of all by hand or memory, so it's not going to make anything more convenient having fewer digits in the still-arbitrary conversion fact

Yea we don't use that but we do use just as many incompatible connectors like most of what I listed. Even M.2 drives have two mutually incompatible connectors which look almost identical. It's easier to tell serial vs parallel por
