The problem is people using it off label, in dangerous quantities, INSTEAD of taking the vaccine. Why would it matter if the medical community thinks ivermectin is safe or not, if the people making this choice don’t trust medical science en

A couple comments earlier people were talking about where does this stop, 1000$ a month? A 3D CAD license with the ability to do FEA is around 30 grand a year, I’ve seen seats of specialized software cost north of 100k a year per seat, and

I don't know stats, but checking out the passings section of scuba board does indicate it's a fair number of people. The thing that is different about diving from bicycling or skiing is you really don't need to be physically

I do as well, the docs don’t have a concise example of code, why it’s better, and what better looks like.

LEO is pretty important, first we have people there right now, and with the notable exceptions of weather and GPS, everything I take for granted in life that works because of satellites is in LEO. Not having it for 150 years would make spac

Those are two massive objects (2800kg or 6100 lbs) with a high relative velocity (14km/s or 31,000 mph) basically head on, so a crash would be a disaster.

This is a parity of a NatSec threat. Any base that is legitimately secret would disallow it’s personal from using apps like this. And that data is trivially replaced by satellite photography. Non secret bases are supported by hundreds of “T

This misses some of the main reason Microservices are nice, it’s much easier to change code that isn’t woven throughout a code base. Microservices make the boundary between units defined and forces API design on those boundaries. Yes, you c

Driving with autopilot every day, I bet we are 5-10 years off the full self driving panacea that Musk is selling, but I don’t care. The car is blazing fast, safer than I am on my daily commute, and I don’t feel the pang of regret from hitti

Autopilot drives far safer than I do, my mind wanders on a 1 hour commute. I know the gaps, on 101 where they just moved the lanes and used stickers for markers, autopilot doesn’t handle it well. But I feel WAY safer with it on. It’s pretty
