Very nice, I believe that's the image that shipped with Voyager-I 30 years ago. It's actually a map that you can use to locate Earth based on known pulsar distances, sort of a galactic GPS coordinates.

How can you know about the tradeoff? you remember your past lifes? nobody can, you will have to guess and often you will guess wrong. That's why very few people has great family planning skills at their 20's.

This guy is a genius, he keep coming with ideas about how to pay people less for their work. He must be very popular on the exec golf meetings.

Men can easily have childrens on their 40s (not recommended though, it's hard work) but women cannot. It's sad to see that most intelligent, talented woman fall in the trap of their careers and die childless. If you are an intelligent entre

Also, it's like painting a huge target on your back for hackers to attack. Maybe that's the deal, all script kiddies will hack the .secure tld and will leave the rest of the internet alone.

"Sorry man, just trust us" ? good job paisano, they will totally believe you. Undoubtly there are good "hackers" in Argentina, like in every country with good education but high levels of poverty (Greece, Ukranie, Russia, etc.). Maybe the r

You can solder this by hand with a solder gun and solder paste, hardly specialised equipment. Thanks to the chinese guys that did this you can now hand-solder a computer that runs a modern OS like Ubuntu 12, you couldn't do that since the 7

Unfortunately, many modern hackers (myself included heh) are adopting Edison's method: Build before learn, try everything, bruteforce a solution, skip math. Hackerspaces are particulary guilty of this non-optimal behaviour. The opposite of

The Tesla vs Edison personality duel is equivalent to Knowledge vs Brute-force, Science vs Business, etc. At the end, Edison may be more known for the general population, but the standard unit of magnetism is named after Tesla.

Edison was exactly the kind of person that I do not want to become.

Yes you can, if you know math. Plus, with math knowledge often comes the wisdom to not commit crimes.

Did you read the indictment? They got it specifically by matching TOR traffic to his online-activity patterns. Obviously they matched perfectly. IMHO this was a weak proof, but still is totally unacceptable for a secure network not to hide

No more CORE for me Doc :) playing the "entrepeneur" now, without the social app or i-phone app, so, no glamour I'm afraid.

I have this advice: Argentina is the "hurt me plenty" or "nightmare" doom level but for business. Entrepeneurs from all the world come here to train. If they survive, they are ready for everything.

It was not destroyed. Some clever guy realized that people automatically trust statistics and you can fake them. Locally, INDEC lost all credibility years ago. The Economist just realized it, next time they will realize the "big mac" index

Inflation and economic disaster is the norm in the latest 30 years of this country. I believe this government is saying "fuck this, we might as well try something new before everything crash". I believe they actually succeeded in delaying t

I disagree with -fPIE making things slow, specially in the ~13 general purpose registers of ARM. Maybe -fPIE affect things in the register-starved x86, not so much in modern archs. Also, "fucked up beyond all repair" is a little exagerated

This craziness is what happens when you try to implement a specialized algorithm on a general-purpose state-machine. What stupid thing is a "cache" anyway, but an optimization because we are not using real computers but hugely complex state
