Streisand [1] claims it's effective against the GFW but I've not tried since I only have iOS/Windows devices when there. [1] https://github.com/StreisandEffect/streisand#more-features

Then there's something broken with your iphone 6, because until the 8 came out I was using a 5S and it was observably slower but not '10 seconds for every app' slow as you apparently describe without exaggeration. I had upgra

>Uh, if they catch up to my point, then they will still be useful at 5 - 7 years, thus the opposite of stagnant. I believe the GP meant that the rapid progress of feature improvement will stagnate, which means older devices won't &#

My feel/understanding is that chamber design is something that gets more difficult as it increases in size (obviously), but also by combining multiple smaller chambers you only suffer minimal downsides from a reliability perspective. A

As a mechanical design engineer (not of cars, of other vehicles) I can't think of any systems that you'd need to modify if you don't plan on driving the car again. This is all off-the-top-of-my-head theorycrafting, so I could

It is probably the fastest/highest burn they've ever tried to land, and thus needs the most fuel to land, expeirences the most structural stress, etc. etc.

The comparison was that N1 had a some 30 engines (Falcon Heavy has 27, given it's 3x Falcon 9's) and that was its downfall. In comparison, the Saturn V used only 5, they were just that much bigger. It's widely regarded that

I suspect that you're going to get slaughtered by downvotes but I largely agree with you. It doesn't really matter that there's non-sketchy coins out there, this unregulated wave of fake altcoins is going to spoil the whole b

If they pull it off, the tandem booster landing at the Cape will truly be a sight to behold. That's probably the most exciting part of it all for me.

Firefox: Grinds to a halt after my 2nd or 3rd attempt, but recognises each one I (sort of, as it stuttered) drew accurately. Chrome: Stayed smooth but did not recognise a single digit correctly. Not sure what causes either of these problems

I agree. That shows some real care about seeing their community propser in the long term. I'd never really known anything about the company (maybe their name, though I couldn't confirm) but this speaks volumes to the type of compa

This is slightly different, as far as I can tell. You're essentially paying for a layer that does the work of setting up Algo[1] on a [digitalocean, EC2, azure, GCE] instance for you before sending you the certificates. You pay them, t

It's disappointing it occurs here but it's not uniquely Australian. I see a fair amount of bikes in similar states of disposal whenever I head over to China. That said, in the CBD area of major chinese cities these things are so u

I, too, missed the double-indenting at the start and thought David was replying to Linus. Once I got to the textbook swearing I double-checked and figured it out.

On the contrary, tangled washing is probably close enough to knot topography to be super challenging to solve without applying sentient meat to the problem.

In my experience from solid mechanics, generally no. I don’t know exactly why, but my guess would be that there’s a significant lag time in development of these packages. They are conservative and heavily favour accuracy to speedy new techn

In many places in China, you either take your own toilet paper or the dispenser is outside the stalls. That is to say, you take a wad of paper before entering the stalls. It stems from when toilet paper was a luxury item.

Yeh he's completely glossed over this. Australia is also off the list, due to its very high alcohol tax. Paradoxially, Singapore is on the list despite having just as high, if not higher, alcohol tax.

Disclaimer: I'm completely uneducated in this, so please point out my glaring flaws of logic. I have no doubt that China will be a major economic player in the coming decades. Having said that, they have major hurdles to clear, perhaps

I studied at UQ, in Austraila. I didn't do mechatronics engineering but a number of my mates did and so I often spent time around them hearing their complaints of how their flawless code simply didn't work for some mystical reason

Micromouse was one of the group projects for the mechatronics engineers at my university. I’m sure their solutions weren’t state of the art sophisticated but I enjoyed watching their trials (and failures) in between my own study.

The most criminal part of many nature documentaries is when they dub over Attenborough for the US audience with someone with a US accent. It's tantamount to sacrilege.

It was his attempt to justify why encryption must have backdoors and that if Australian Parliament were to legislate that, they’d have to accept it.
