I think this retort is sorta factually correct but missing the author's point. Totally true that by mass the preservatives aren't a lot, but that doesn't mean the refined products of naturally occurring plants are 'real

Could this be invoked directly from the bash CLI as a sort of fully featured pipe based syntax layer? Curious for your thoughts here

Oh cool -- what do you use urbit for? Internet chat? I bought a star ages back but haven't done anything with it, I curiously read their update emails but remain tickled/skeptical by the oddball Hoon semantics and design language.

This self-balancing effect is a big part of how trade should work according to monetarist economics[0] But for reasons I don't fully understand (possibly Triffin's Dilemma[1]), this hasn't worked for the US. Triffin's ex

> doesn't this effectively mean China can force a 51% attack by just strongarming the pools that operate there? Yes, in theory. There's a coordination problem to get all the pools to do what you want, but if they (or anyone) co

I agree that the best solution is a variety of solutions, there's no one silver bullet that's going to save us all. I've heard this line about the Japanese before and I wonder how they got to this point. I recently learned ab

We can empower democratic institutions like the FTC to be able to take action in these cases, rather than leaving important decisions in the hands of private corporations. > ...what Parler is doing should be illegal, because it should be

I think the theory behind it is straightforward enough (and indeed, Moderna was founded 10 years ago with this sort of mRNA vaccine as their explicit goal), but the practice is more complicated. Figuring out what sequence of mRNA will be th

Is this ‘just’ using a set of sensor data as the input to a classifier? Or am I missing something more complex (and if so, could someone explain it?). If it’s ‘just’ the former, then why hasn’t this been done before? (‘just’ in quotes bc I

My understanding is that MomentJs is “done”, which means it’s stable and feature complete. New projects which require moment’s functionality should absolutely use it!

One of my first programming projects in college was implementing a reasonably simple A/B tree solver for Mancala, and then parallelizing it to search with multiple threads. Fond memories!
