Roundup causes some serious cancer. Maybe its not directly toxic like agent orange, but these chemicals are still dangerous.

Or, we have too many people for the jobs that are hiring Americans. That pretty well explains both. Trump would be right to constrict access to H1B1 visas for foreign workers in the US, in this case. But we also have a problem of access to

Wow. Karl Marx the prophet all up in this op. If only the author would recognize that. Not saying Marx's solutions are best. But he certainly was relevant in describing the problems.

Yes. Median. Meaning half of people are below that level that you found no reason to leave , ya lazy bum.

When was that? Should we adjust for inflation? How has the cost of housing changed? What additional monthly expenses have emerged as necessary to participate in society?

Dont forget! https://apnews.com/9309128222ab4c4f92b0d0022e1ec133/In-shado... The Hoovervilles are back. Maybe we should just call them Trumpvilles now. When your business does not pay the workers enough to survive, do

Well... As someone outside of that arm of the industry, I have to wonder about what exposure there is to spectre, or what kind of patches are coming out for affected machines.

Those undocumented features & byte code? HAP mode - something the NSA doesnt want you to know exists, but that they had put into intelME from Skylake onward. But yet and still we found out. So yes, this security through obscurity approa

WaitWaitWait... Nasa had its peak funding during those Moon landing years. We've let that equipment dryrot, switched to new versions, run those into the ground, slashed the budget repeatedly (and again over NASA's climate change r

Meanwhile, when poverty numbers are both a mark of shame for a country and fail to keep pace with the inflation of either consumer goods or housing? We have a growing population of homeless folks too "rich" for public assistance

What a crock. This is why Medium, as a news source sucks . Literally anyone can say literally anything. Im no bitcoin fanboy either. Bail out, leave the bankers with the bill as revenge for 2008. It was the wrong application of a brilliant

The article is about weapons rather than power. Weapons dont attempt to contain anything. Power plants do so pretty well. I wanna see what effect Nuclear Power has on the health of the average French citizen. If we're going to exam

Gee, I wonder why - small to medium farmers make just enough to get subsidized into almost not backsliding into debt and oblivion. Then a bad season hits, thanks to climate change. Cant afford food, much less taxes, maybe a mortgage. Aaaa

TL;DR - just dump it on the bankers. Once they're into anything , it gets a bubble. Thats how bitcoin jumped so high in 2017. Get out before the last bank buys in. We can reevaluate whats left after they crash it with their money eq

Uhm... coreboot is the linux kernel, just like this project, running that plaform control module that normally runs via Intel ME. The big difference is Go on one side, and a small selection of config files to support a small/growing co

I'd like you to expound upon that lack of competition. Where does it pop up?

CVEs, etc accumulate with enough attention. Whether they're published depends on whether your team courts or snubs the security side of the industry. I wonder how many coders out there don't know about the dangers of global variab

Did you realize that Torvalds did not have anything to do with Linux 2.6.32.70? He offloaded the whole project onto another team (who mostly backported fixes) that kept it going until early 2016. The rest of us were already in Linux 4.X t
