I'm running a side-project on Cloudflare and it's accessible through Tor without problems. I suspect this comes down to the settings a site owner sets up in their Cloudflare interface. It would stand to reason if for example you a

I made something very much like this as part if a custom business workflow software for a client recently. It never occurred to me to spin it off as a standalone thing. Do you think there could be a market for that?

It seems to me that "regret" is just a different name for an objective/loss function that reflects the merits of an action over many events. It's something that you would consider anyway when designing certain algorith

What happens if the immutable file is borked in transfer, leading to a partial file sitting in cache? Will this lead to a new class of problem that can only be solved by nuking the entire browser cache? It seems to me the way to do this rig

I have to give it to the militarists though: they were certainly secular. When the long-overdue recent military coup failed (or didn't happen, depending on who you ask), it seems to me the flood walls just collapsed irreversibly. Funda

I agree with people who say this age is about to become a black hole in history, but it's not about cataclysmic collapse per se. It's about walling information in so it can only be used (ephemerally and in exchange for money) but

I addressed this in the other comment. It was a shitty way to convey a slightly different point. Sorry about that.

That's a huge "what if", on top of what's already an impossible-to-predict situation. But if we're going to entertain this, we should also factor in the other circumstances that are likely to come with this scenario

That's because consciousness - at least in the way it's being used here - is not a scientific term at all. What people think it might be isn't reason enough to postulate a hugely fantastical cosmological mechanism where so fa
