Thanks for the recommendations, I'm going to try out the Murderhobo Series, because I'm /greatly/ amused by the name.

Re: LitRPG. I've read a few, but I'd love some recommendations. Any you'd care to share?

Yes, but the work's already been done for years. Again, I think this device isn't a terrible value, but a $2-300 device would be a lot sweeter proposition for my demographic.

I do love the idea of these, but at that price ($990) I'm afraid our church will stick with 16-port USB hubs and my horrible, cobbled python script to rsync a folder to them. Looking at the price, it's probably justified, but hard

All the competitive (ICE) runs have additional fuel cells.

25:39, actually. Arne Toman and Doug Tabbutt (with Berkeley Chadwick) set the 27:25 pre-covid, and then (after having been beaten 7 times) did a 25:39 during covid. Yes, most Cannonballers view "covid runs" as a special case, but

I can assure you that the vast majority of folks doing these runs are not wealthy. Some? Sure. For instance, The 2904 was famous for requiring you to do the whole run in $2904, including the car!

Ed is a super nice guy, genuinely kind, and he's done a lot to preserve "Cannonball history".

I can't say as conflating antivaxxers with a pediatrician that recommends a delayed/modified vaccine schedule is exactly productive. Delayed/modified schedule isn't to blame for measles. Pretty disingenuous, IMO. For tho

While I advocate for non-lead ammunition, the story is a little more complex: https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2014/dec/2/lead-ammunit...

Honestly, there are differences. Do they matter? IMHO, no. Most "stopping power" debates are talking about rifles that are vastly capable with or without lead bullets, and with the bans that have happened, the tech has moved forwa

You should check out Ben Eater's 8-bit computer from scratch. https://eater.net/8bit There's even a kit for you to build one.

We need treaties, banning research and development of weaponized, and especially autonomous AI (and yes, I realize that US drones already have it in limited capacity). We should be working to stop the proliferation of these weapons; they ha

I'm interested if you might have some alternate analyses that I might read. Especially if they are less handwavy but reasonably approachable.

The men of our family try to get to Montana every year for elk season. Remote, cold, feet hurt, sore, and no Internet access for 24-48 hour stretches (sometimes longer). But the pack weighs on me more than the disconnection, even after over

Yes, but that's the thing: it does work. And anything that you created from whole cloth, empirically, would be highly unlikely to work.

Thanks for posting this Kirill; I was a victim of this. Being a recent transplant to GA, I didn't have a Georgia drivers license. This basically meant that my voter registration got destroyed. Not happy.

I was an 18 year old grunt, fresh out of basic training, when I went to Iraq in 1991. After about 48 hours of living on tarmac at the airport (where I experienced the first of many MOPP-4 chemical warnings: let me tell you how fun it is to

They don't have anything to hide, right? Why should they worry about being surveilled? We need to fight terrorism wherever it is, even in Congress. Right?

Agreed, Beaver is a great guy, but that website. Oy gavolt. Also kitschy, in same vein: http://bassnw.com/ -- a couple hundred feet from my office. Great folks.

From a conversation with them, they are intending to charge around $2000/seat/month. This takes it out of the realm of possibility for me, but http://excel-dna.net/ looks like it will fit the bill with a little elbow grease.

Hilary Mason's machine learning video is good: http://oreilly.com/catalog/0636920017493 It's more of a primer, but it seems like most of the other material assumes that you're already a practitioner. It does have enough depth to actually
