Dude, Thatcher was more the kind of person to be on the side of the locust executives that tank a company to cushion their short-term bonuses than on the side of actual workers... Most of the predicament of Boeing is due to the same kind of

Those problems are systemic. It is the whole system called "Boeing" that is now rotten - and the rot can have extended anywhere and everywhere now. The executive don't care. They earned enough to live rich until the end of th

This is completely tautological and therefore nonsensical. Status is a pure social construct without any physical, objective markings. What you imagine as "deriving my self worth from internal rather than external validation" is p

Is anyone trying to write ISA for specific programing languages, like the lisp machines of old? Would RiskV be amenable to have language-specific customizations or peripheral accelerators?

Before you say it's absurd, have you read the rationale behind the changes requested? Chesterton's fence applies.

Google "the lost cause", the "war on Christmas", "white flight"... The right has played the victim card for decades. It's their core tenet.

Pretty rich to say that when this whole drama is caused by Ackman launching a great war on academia under the pretense of weeding out plagiarism, and then throwing a hissy fit when shown his academic of a wife has done worse than Claudine G

But the blindness of many internet commentators towards power relations is frankly weird. We have to make different rules depending on the power one yields: for example, transparency is a necessity against the powerful, while the rest have

First off: this is an article from 2019. Second: the discovery is disputed. Replication attempts failed. Ozone is a big contaminant at those sizes (very high surface/volume ratio), amplified by the nebulization tech to get such fine mi
