TikTok can still serve data to the US, it just can't list its apps in US app stores.

It didn't recognize essentially any photographer I suggested. Finally got something joyful when asked to create a chess-set inspired by "rooks". Least-playable chess-set ever :).

There is nothing I'm aware of that converts from handwriting to LaTeX My general impression is that you'll still have the most-contrasty screen with black-and-white eInk. Color is just getting awesome, while black and white is alr

It is highly discouraged for good reason. Experimental treatment is generally dangerous and humans are often overconfident. That said, there are stories like Helicobacter pylori that have moved humanity forward.

To learn something about primes. Perhaps there is a pattern or a way to more-accurately predict which numbers will be prime. Also, it is cool.

Those would need to be very low-energy cats. You wouldn't be able to look at them for a very, very long time. If my quick math is correct, for the de Broglie wavelength of a cat to be comparable to its width, it would need to be travel

To point out to the public how much this sort of defense costs.

With the verdict in-hand, Sable was probably voluntold by Cloudflare. If Cloudflare thought they had a shot at recovering costs, $225k and a patent-portfolio could be substantially less than whatever Cloudflare (or their insurance) had paid

Has Cloudflare stated anywhere how much their defense cost them (or their insurance)?

That's only an initial condition -- that requirement states only that the total energy is negative. We are gravitationally bound to Earth, but the Voyagers have left the solar system.

The high sharp corners are indeed intimidating when Cybertrucks pass near cyclists. Paradoxically for a vehicle that's surely received oodles of aerodynamic attention, it at least doesn't seem like a design that might push a ped

Agreed. One must be rather careful when determining the Cybertruck's "direct rivals". It's got a lot of properties of a "truck", yet it is difficult to imagine utilizing it, especially given the price, in many

No need to simulate. It is generally straightforward to compute the odds directly from the rules.

Unless you're buying a meaningful fraction of tickets, the EV/ticket will be similar to uncorrelated tickets. If you're buying all the tickets, well, the math is real easy. (and occasionally profitable, see 1992 in Virginia)

The aether originally suggested a preferred reference frame -- something thoroughly debunked by tests of special relativity. The universe could still have various preferred/interesting frames (the CMB's rest-frame sure is interest

Yep. Chatting with other practitioners is a powerful way to learn how things actually work. There are tons of things that "everyone" knows that are not well documented, and therefore unavailable to people outside the network. Th

With only a few minutes thought on the subject, it seems like Congress could explicitly amend the APA to state that the interpretation in Chevron is correct. They might not do that, but from my initial non-expert read of today's opin

I'm looking forward very much to the day a manufacturer begins selling eink handsets and tablets with up-to-date OS/security (Android 14 in this context), GPL compliance, and telemetry compliant with US law/privacy concerns.

It's been a while, but with a little bit of solder and a slightly-janky connector, you don't need the proprietary dongle to connect to a serial connection (at least with a Vantage Vue from ~2010). The Vantage Vue hardware is solid

It has gotten better. I, perhaps erroneously, attribute it to better communication between flights/ATC, improved understanding of wind shear, and better forecast models. Some things never change, though. Front Range of Colorado on a su

By 'upper bound' here, I meant for the insured. Above the deductible (and premium payments), the insured's exposure is largely lost time and headaches, the remaining financial burden is borne by the insurer. If anything, the

The coverage terms, and any exceptions, matter -- at a quick glance, I don't see coverage there for "disease enters a hive and the government forces you to burn all your hives".

One could make the same argument against car insurance, and most kinds of insurance. I'm pretty sure that if car insurance were somehow banned, especially medical-liability, fewer people would own and operate motor vehicles. Insurance
