We are embracing Go for the higher level service controls but the core is staying C++ for now. Still can't beat C/C++ when you want to sling packets very very fast. (ZeroTier founder and main author here)

I would prefer the same size as 2015 with the same battery and much longer battery life from reduced power consumption. It seems like Apple is spending the gains from better circuitry in the wrong way.

I simply don't understand the obsession with this at Apple.

A lot of these things are hacks to streamline user experience.

Pictures of kids for viewing by grandparents and relatives is literally the only legitimate use of Facebook as far as I'm concerned. It's basically an over-engineered photo sharing service.

Music yes, movies no... you are right. That's why I don't buy many movies.

Too bad. I was hoping the EU would use its economic might to apply pressure against surveillance capitalism. Sometimes when our host nations fail us our best option is to hope for global pressure.

I wonder if Hollywood is so obsessed with DRM because they themselves are such f'ing pirates. The entire culture of Hollywood is around stealing (e.g. the endless so-and-so stole my script idea lawsuits) and defending oneself from havi

Of all companies Facebook should be kept as far as possible from any kind of Neuralink type interface. We are literally going to lobotomize our species in a quest to get people to click ads.

Shh... if all people do is invest in funds made up of existing blue chips, nothing new will ever be funded again and we'll end up with an economy of nothing but stale old Soviet bureaus.

During the day California runs on up to 40% solar energy on some days and I don't notice any difference. My stuff doesn't care where its electricity comes from. I drive an electric car too. http://www.caiso.com/Tod

Serverless was just a lock in model pushed by big cloud vendors.

Stuff like this makes me wonder about quantum immortality. Maybe we just happen to be in the timeline where we didn't nuke ourselves.

Unfortunately your suggestion will lead to a flood of scam phony prototypes to scoop up grant money. It'll be like the worst of Kickstarter on a larger scale. Deploying capital with discernment is extremely hard. VCs put a lot of effor

Markets are feedback driven. If enough people believe there will be a recession there probably won't as the recession will already be priced in. If on the other hand everyone starts saying "it's different this time!" tha

All these hacks just illustrate the fact that money is a social construct. It's funny to watch the block chainers come to this realization too. "Bitcoin is hard money! Finally we have an 'objective' currency!" ... t

It's WWIV and it may have started on 9/11/01, which I have started wondering might have been a proxy attack. Don't know but it seems possible. WWIII was the cold war with all its proxy battles. Full scale hot wars betwee

Thanks, but what "conspiracy tinge?" Planning for likely future conflict scenarios is what governments and militaries do. They have entire departments full of people who do it full time. It's not at all unreasonable to think

Re: Russia's population: it's aging, and relative to China? China could field an army larger than the entire population of Russia if they were sufficiently motivated. Are there any geoengineering projects that would really work? W

I see a darker possibility. Maybe we are acting. Maybe governments and oligarchs in richer more powerful nations have concluded in secret that the situation is hopeless and that it's too late to prevent major climate change, so they ar

I absolutely love the overall objectives here! Unfortunately I can't see a reason to use this over Alpine Linux, which is also quite simple and minimal and has been around for a while and works fantastically well.

Some people call it "hater news" for the tendency of people here to be negative on new things, though in my experience it's not as bad as other sites.

Did that actually happen or did we just outsource all the dirty stuff?

It's unlikely that we are alone: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_potentially_habitable_... Is anyone visiting? That's more far-fetched given the distances and such.

This is totally hypothetical, but if these orbs and weird multicolored lights were actual physical craft I can in fact think of a physically plausible propulsion system that might look like that. We know how to build two kinds of rockets: h

Both are possible. The latter is more likely in a textbook epistemological sense because we know black budget military vehicles exist while we don't have any proof aliens exist.

If it were just recorded by one sensor that would have been my initial assumption. This was (unless I am totally confused or misreading things) recorded by more than one unit and there were associated visual sightings. My best money would b

That's interesting, but wasn't there also at least one visual sighting accompanying this FLIR stuff?

If we have planes that can do that, I'm a bit proud and I feel happy that all those tax dollars falling into black budget holes have been doing something interesting. Personally I doubt it. The performance of that thing (assuming it is
