There is such a thing as 5d memory storage, which I understand basically uses etched glass and is thus super mega stable, although I'm not too sure about the costs involved in heavy use for things like day to day archiving https:/

Style and format are important tho, would you like your docs written in haiku, or as a single three hour light opera video? Embracing an archaic grandstanding pose and an academic look when much more easily grokkable formats are available j

I'd like to issue a blanket ban on the "considered harmful" thing, as well as sharing print-optimized PDFs on the web for people on computers to read. Both things are archaisms that can be easily avoided, and in the particula

You know what I actually miss when I use OSX? An actual mspaint clone. Not an ad-ridden or pay version, just a built in paint app I can doodle on that's in there by default.

I hate not being able to use Stripe here in Argentina. The only easily-reachable payment gateway is about as nice as a swift kick on the groin, and Stripe's wonderful approach at money would be a godsend.

So it's a mobile only, teen-centric social trinket that's also not available at all on my country according to the play store. Fuck that.

Brought to you by the same guys who decided giving opaque, untamperable access to your browser by random external parties was a good idea. I think I'll pass.

Carlin Vieri, a googler, coined the term while at MIT. " 1) Any apparently useless activity which, by allowing you to overcome intermediate difficulties, allows you to solve a larger problem. 2) A less useful activity done consciously

I find this particular stuff fascinating. In spanish you have 3 distinct meals, 'desayuno' 'almuerzo' and 'cena' mapping strictly to a moment of the day, more or less 'breakfast' 'lunch' and

This is one article that can be greatly improved by adding "fucking" before every instance of "sun". I would also appreciate a number of citations, since it's hard for me to take things at face value after this mode

I like using these to diagnose what kind of lemon a client just brought for maintenance, but they can be pretty nice to ensure you got your final product right too.

Reading your link I counted a hundred and twenty in 19 years. For about 9 million people in Sweden, that's a 120/(19 * 9 * 10^6) change of something happening each year. That's insanely small, compared to, say, the amount of

I think it's fine, if they can manage to polyfill this fucker. Otherwise it's just an incompatible wart like the getUserMedia implementation was for years, like webaudio still is, and like some of their latest hardware ideas have

What kind of abuse prevention measures does this have in place? As it stands it looks like a super convenient way to scp garbage into other people's computers and I'm not sure I'm sold on that.
