Yeah, there is something going on there with the recommendations for controversial figures like Jordan. I just watched some of the lectures, the 3 to 4 hour ones on Pinocchio and the Bible. Now my recommendations are infected with "Jor

DAI has been backed by a basket of coins for quite some time now, precisely to mitigate the scenario you described. Even if ETH went to near zero it would still be over 100% collateralised.

Apple's and Oranges; tails is designed for storing sensitive files amongst many other features whereas Whonix is a live CD that doesn't offer storage and is focused only on secure browsing.

We have known how to build working NTRs since before the moon landings. They are a proven technology but we decided is was not worth the risk to fly them. What changed? Or will this rocket stay firmly on the ground?

It doesn't even make sense; clean them up and move to a nice museum hangar and it would basically be free money. I expect they profit quite nicely already from fines and bribes from all people that go to visit the shuttle anyway.

Absolutely; the language moves fast. Around 2015 I was using C# at work. Last year I did some code review on a C# project and at first I had no idea what I was looking at. The new features and design patterns used made it like reading a lan

Did you even read the article? The author doesn't complaint about the tools other than the $1200 you will loose if you don't return them within 7 days. Your comment comes across as more disingenuous.

"doesn't fit architecturly" is not a good argument. We have never built temples in the same style as houses. The dating is rejected only because it doesn't fit the author's worldview. I laughed out loud at the cap

I've had to work with reverse polish notation on a regular basis for years yet to this day I still can't get my head around even the most basic expressions with more than a couple of operators. I've resorted to writing the re

One of the main objectives of ITER is to test Tritium Breeding technologies for DEMO. There is no shortage due to heavy water plants shutting down because it was never planes to use Tritium from that source in the first place!

I think you would have a hard time in Africa; Africans themselves tend to have a stronger affiliation to their continent than country and refer to it as-such.

Might be like that way in Germany, but in mainland France and Spain domestic flights are almost unheard of as the train is nearly always a better option and price is the same if you book in advance as you would for a plane ticket.

You misunderstood, the privacy itself is the problem; it's the lack of data privacy that makes the US so appealing.

In Europe it's normal; if you encounter a road safety issue you report it and a crew gets sent out to fix it. I think in the US people stopped giving a shit, because you know it probably won't get fixed so any time soon so why bot

Reason is bullshit, the opposite is true. They could literally start taking delivery tomorrow, which is highly unusual when ordering an airliner. The real reason is low public confidence in Boeing in China due to the MCAS incidents and othe

So when you drive over that pot hole, as a responsible citizen you call the local highways department and report it, then they know where it is. At least that's how it should work. Fairly cheap and effective.

It's not like we don't know where the potholes are, it just costs too much to maintain all the roads. Spending more on Lidar cameras can't fix that.

I highly recommend you go watch Rick Falkvinge's videos on Lightning Network. They are a little old, but everything in them stands true to this day.

I think it's a matter of scope. Building a simple personal blog? Most developers can probably make something fairly readable and pretty with some thought and a CSS framework. Increase the complexity to something that has more interacti

I find Skyrim's animations quite charming, although they were already dated from a technical perspective when the game first came out.

I have a 400W wind turbine along with 400W of solar on my boat. The turbine almost never gets used as it makes more noise than a 1500W gasoline generator.

HN is allergic to Blockchain; people don't even read the articles they just jump straight into their opinions. The only exception is Vitalik; sometimes that guy is just too smart to ignore.

There has been some work recently on electrostatic repulsion for cleaning dust from terrestrial panels. I expect NASA will investigate if the same technology is suitable for other planets.

Depends what devices you are watching on. e.g. you probably can't block ads on the YouTube app that comes on your TV.
