I wholeheartedly agree with setting goals for personal time, scheduling downtime and time with family, and pot. I caution however, as a non-24/running clock disorder/non diurnal individual who worked at night a lot in military and

Yes, what wcrichton said. Additionally, I have a suggestion. One of the deciding factors for me to fall in love with Rust was my habitual use of metaphor to distance my personal feelings from the issue at hand to reach an impartial decision

A misunderstanding, I thought another article said something about FF getting a rebrand as part of this. Phew. The Mozilla icon I'm not attached to.

Oil Sector... Being in south Texas, I believe I've made an incorrect assumption that readers would understand the potential volatility of such jobs, especially for a Nigerian immigrant. To clarify, I've watched friends and collea

I think you're on to something. Say we record monaural audio with directional mics on/beside each cam, then encode and compress each stream, allowing for realtime stereo mixing during playback determined by view angle. Add a compa

Weird... I've had a strange urge to take up farming and hack the hell out of it. What's with that?

With a little humanity, it all worked out ok. Didn't see that coming, but awesome. Now this guy can be an unemployed American graduate lol. I worked with a talented Nigerian radiologic technologist who abruptly left and went home to se

Clickbait title, article is mostly speculation. The US did not make any act of aggression or declare war. Joe Biden (spelled блядь сука in Russian I think ;)) said some dumb shit about sending Putin a "message". The article leads

Judgement of parenting from a single event is arbitrary at best and criminal at worst. Child Protection Services investigated my mother and accused her of burning me with a cigarette (it was a mosquito bite, I'm allergic to their antic

"Burst" reminds me of an Eve Online star chart. Bonus points. To me it represents linked entities, connections, unity, and the Internet more than the others. I dig the colors against dark backgrounds too. But... While typing this

Yeah, but how often does an anti-missile researcher go homicidal on mosquitoes with a laser? :) The idea was neat at least.

"I haven't whitelisted a site from ad blocking in over a year" where does that say HN isn't on my whitelist? Liar, lol.. where? I never made any statement about your morals, comparisons or claims that it was "right&

And no, I wouldn't tip a stripper if she tried to break into my house, or steal my things. I've given up cable television, browsing most ad supported sites, using Windows, Twitter, FB, the convenience of hands-free voice search,

I'll tip a stripper directly before I'll invite malvertising to infect my devices so she can get 5% of what her performance is worth is what I'm saying. I subscribe to services worth their salt.

I haven't whitelisted a site from ad blocking in over a year, nor will I again, this is mostly why. The only financial incentive I think we can leverage against supporters of unscrupulous advertising networks is refusing to browse thei

Agreed. Mosquitoes are important pollinators and necessary members of our food chain, we would be hurting without their help. Only reproducing females require a blood meal, further complicating the issue. To that end, check out this [0] ant

Maybe we should create a community maintained list of blocker unfriendly sites, and serve a public blacklist compatible with existing software. Forbes and others are blocked on my home DNS for hostility and crippling of features. If a compa

As an english speaking American, learning danish, I agree it is a little confusing, the zero versus Ø problem. but it is also confusing to see 0 and O written when the zero has no slash. I think maybe our zero needs a less ambiguous disting

This answers my question. I was just thinking about this and other methods like encoding data in pulses from a keyboard led at high enough frequencies that humans dont see a flicker but an optical sensor can read it, hard drive parking nois

Yes, I think the author misses the point, which is that Arch is a mentality not a distro. I built my system from scratch and configured it that way, without any scripts to guide my install or anything else, and now I know Linux and its ecos

Imagine if they were all running Boinc instead. We might have cured Zika already. Gridcoin pays cryptocurrency for 'mining' through a proof of work concept using Boinc credit. But who cares where the carbon emissions from all that
