Perhaps they need it to work on Mac? Granted, it seems the only game they have that’s Mac compatible is elder scrolls online…

Doubtful SpaceX would ever use that for starlink, they are not attached at deployment so you’d need one for each sat.

Pretty irritating that it doesn't tell you the word after the game is over.

Which Li-fi people? AFAICT there are several groups, and li-fi.co (which I'll assume you're talking about) is less advertising for one specific group, and more advocating for the technology as a whole. > They claim visible ligh

Why? From the outside I would have assumed that was a bad thing.

I work in the area. I would say the static stuff that’s hard is stuff that’s also hard for human drivers, like poor lane markers or ambiguous signage. So I’m not sure that QR codes will help—-just fix the signage.

I think it was fixed and then subsequently removed: https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/man-db.git/commit/?id=84bd... https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/man-db.git/commit/?id=b225.

I’m sorry are you saying her claim that Neanderthals’ ancestors originated in Israel has something to do with a religion that started hundreds of thousands of years later? Because I just don’t see the connection.

Perhaps it was more implying they were welcomed? > The voices also included white supremacists and neo-fascists. The only people who struggled to be heard... were “social justice warriors.”

Do you have a source for that? Beyond the NYT piece, which is so laughable it does hit pieces a disservice by being grouped with them.

You’re 100% correct that it doesn’t have to be better, if gp was wrong about oxidization being the main issue. If the largest problem was evaporation of some oils or something, the vacuum would likely exacerbate the problem (imagine someone

I think this is probably not right. If you always have exactly one bottle open, the magnum will always have more total surface area. If you drink less than 750 ml from both, yes the ratio of area/volume will be smaller, but conversely

Cool! Because I was curious: Rocket Lab's Electron is about $27k/kg payload, while Virgin's Launcher One is "less than" $40k/kg to the same orbit. So more, but not crazy if you need some of the benefits Virgin

I can't wait until Starlink starts implementing their planned optical links and unleashes intercontinental lower-than-fiber latency.

Options have expiries, not short positions. Perhaps what you’re thinking of is a margin call, which you can avoid by leaving cash in your account. If it becomes too expensive you can sell some long positions to cover.

The article doesn't contain any more information about the topics in the title. Which is too bad, because I would be interested in hearing about the economics of these things and hearing from companies attempting them.

Can you help interpret those numbers? Are they good?

Tonski specifically has always wowed me with his work, I'm eager to delve deeper into his take on UI.

Immensely, thank you. I guess I should have read more carefully. I'll leave my unwarranted snark so others can laugh at me.

Man, it's too bad this author didn't read the other post on the front page about colorblindness; I can barely understand anything from his graph. (Yes this post is from a few years ago, but it does provide a good example of the pr

I assumed this was so named because it was supposed to disrupt kickstarters cut in the same way craigslist disrupted classifieds, but it seems it’s because the creators name is Craig. A happy accident, then, because I think my interpretatio

They’re responding to the claim that “the price has gone up because students are responsible for more of the cost“ which is in the post above them. If the true cause of the increase was a drop in state funding, you’d expect other schools to

I imagine that for people who bought the cars, the other characteristics outweigh build quality. Separately, you might be interested to know that apparently the build quality has gone up quite a bit recently: https://youtu.be&#x2

I’m not sure I follow... you and Musk agree FSD isn’t here now, so of course drivers must keep full attention. As to him making claims about the future, perhaps he believes it. In any case, there is a history of his companies doing “the imp

I think the author calling Musk a conman is too strong a reaction to what goes on. I think Musk has a tendency to oversell already great technology with science fiction. Teslas are amazing cars but full self driving has been 6 months away f
