The thing is, if you wait long enough, CO2 will be removed by the plant life anyway so removing it is "free". However if you reflect the price of the removal process which is as _fast_ as it is emitted to the consumer, someone gon

Rivian is the much needed kick in the nuts. When it turn out to be a viable truck and not just vaporware with lofty promises, people took note. I am by no means a truck or suv type guy but the idea of full electric one is very intriguing, i

The real issue is not reading, it is editing the "canonical" wiki. Same goes for image hosting sites. Passive content consumption in a foreign language is not a great concern.

Mozilla lacks the financial strength to shove their merchandise down people's throats. Microsoft used OS market share, Opera used small device market share and Google used web search market share to promote their offerings. Mozilla nev

While we are calculating the externalised costs, why not include the considerable health care impact of the exhaust gasses on the populace? I'd welcome the reduced personal costs, if electric vehicle adoption is much more: * My immune

That DC might as well be AC since it is not as stable as you'd like. Consider this, you have a DC source 5-15V and want to run a usb gadget from it. You still need a regulator between the wall plug and the device. Why not make it comp

I don't know how kotlin fares in practice for android, but I experimented with scala on android a few years back successfully. The thing is, android doesn't really need a marketing blitz as big for alternative languages to be usab

If you compare standard library approaches between languages, yes, ones which let you inline calls will beat callback through pointers in thight loops, which is comparison function in qsort. Most of the time it is inconsequential. You could

No need to wonder. I think someone runs `grep apple` on posts and upvote. If they don't actually run it, I'm sure they can be replaced by a very small bash script.

Yeah you are right. He worships junk apparently. It is a stupid blog with less content than the apple marketing material which is taken seriously by some certain readership.

It is not as much feature X, but lack of feature X that's the problem in the article. Statical typing is a tool you should be using if it is suitable to your problems. The problem described is verifying there is no garbage in garbage o

I can understand the sentiment if the goal is to prevent someone mail ordering an AR-15 kit and a plastic %80 lower, then drill a few holes with a battery powered drill, assemble, spray paint it pink, slap a hello kitty sticker and off to t

TFA doesn't mention banning the machines themselves. In fact only thing worth mentioning is the seizure of plastic %80 lowers because they were just too easy to finish while leaving the metal ones. There is no intent to regulate even t

If you can operate a computer equipped with a plastic printer, I think you can operate a 18th century machine following a blueprint on paper. It is not like machinist design those lower receivers from scratch either.

by artificialidiot 12y ago
For the about the same price of a 3d printer and plastics, you can buy a small lathe and aluminium stock to build a gun far superiour yet just as dangerous for the user. Required skill is comparable. Why aren't there any talks about ba

You don't know the joys of CNC until you break tungsten bits, about 10€ a pop, like candy. It hurts, figuratively or literally.
