I may be reading this wrong, wouldn’t a 7nm span of anything span the Earth 5.4874958x10^-16 times then? Or is this somehow different than a pound of feathers vs a pound of gold question? Edit: definitely glossed over the dead comment there

I’d be almost certain that there are more people looking to crack exceedingly high value targets like politicians, and billionaires than there are me. There’s also people looking to crack huge swathes of the population, but state level acto

I liked charging and connecting displays from both sides. What I didn’t like was that over three or four of the Apple USB-C to hdmi/usb-a/whatever the last one was (thunderbolt?) and one third party adapter I never found one that

They don’t. They could swear on the Constitution, or the Quran, or a picture their granddaughter drew for them. It’s the oath that matters, not what your hand is on.

I’m curious if you think that best practices in all instances are just bologna? It’s also interesting because certainly you must have come across those engineers and developers who’re so well versed in their particular portion of the field

Plus, just being aware of how these elements interact with screen readers, and what you need to do for them and keyboard users can make you more aware to write better, more accessible HTML in the future. It’s a bit strange to me that in my

I worked at one company which did design reviews for major projects where one person would present and everyone would pick at it until some semblance of a decent consensus was reached and then said designer would go off and build their stuf

In mixed groups or groups of men I still seem to say guys and I don’t think it’s an issue, although now that it’s been brought to my attention a lot of times if it’s a work setting I might revert to “hey, how is everyone”. One thing I notic

I checked out the Vessel which was pretty neat, although I didn’t have a ticket to climb it. I live fairly close to the Oculus and don’t mind it. Usually once you get past the crowds taking pictures near the entrances it’s not super crowded

Huh, neat, thanks for the detailed answer. I wonder how something like this would scale. Seems like you’d hit a limit where large trades would get noticed, so I guess the key would be to spread it over time.

Hopefully not a silly question, isn’t this just a classic pump and dump scheme? Wouldn’t this be exceedingly traceable over time? Are trades not public over time? Especially larger positions? Or do we only know when Berkshire Hathaway (for

I think a lot of this mindset is also driven by the fact that the loudest members of society aren’t generally reflective of society as a whole. The Trump supporters at rallies, and the cancel/call out culture on Twitter are two example

Cooking and baking are my big ones. It’s tactile. There’s an end to each session (as opposed to most side projects which have a nigh on infinite set of potential tasks, or work which is much the same). I’m on my feet. I usually don’t have m

Certainly, but I think that Nordic model is sort of the aim. It provides socialism for essentials and capitalism for the rest with a relatively libertarian approach to personal beliefs. I know it’s my preferred model.

r/WSB seems to be a Wall Street 4chan and it's definitely pretty funny reading through some of the threads.

And with those new credit cards that allow you to spin up one time use numbers you don’t even really have to worry so much about a small businesses card handling operation getting hacked which is nice. Not having a central point of failure

Wouldn’t the socialist meccas be places like the Nordic countries? Strong social safety nets and workers rights, freedom of expression and religion, etc? I don’t think the people who identify as woke are in favor of top down party rule whic

Is the US worst in terms of foreign policy? Seems like the peoples of the South China sea, Tibet, and Hong Kong might have different opinions on that matter. Also all the nations in Africa with newly built debt trap infrastructure. The US h

This feels like a pretty defeatist attitude to me. Just because your portion of ICE’s budget is insignificant doesn’t mean you have to support ICE. And even if it is purely symbolic, lots of symbolic actions do more than nothing. At the ver

Voter turnout’s low because we live in an oligarchy where only special interests are represented, votes don’t matter (even when they’re not suppressed), and the will of the people isn’t heard in our chambers and halls of governance. That’s

Isn’t Softbank about to invest 5bn? 4% of that just for a single individual who’s ostensibly a big part of the reason they tanked a 40bn dollar valuation to a mere 20% of that seems like a literal fuckton to me. Of course, he may be the rea

I have a feeling this is like asking if you could take the community out of Little Italy in NYC. For the tourist coming in, looking through the windows, having a canoli, does the community really matter? Are they even visible in the throngs

Try looking at Manhattan to Paris for a better comparison Manhattan - 33.58 mi2 (87km2) - 72,918/mi2 (28,154/km2) Paris - 40.7 mi2 (105.4km2) Meanwhile the five boroughs are 468.484 mi2 (1213.7km2), so literally an order of magni

Except you can’t just conjure money up out of thin air while also doing a good job with your mandate of keeping inflation low. This is such a silly argument that really holds no water in the real world.

The Fed has very specific mandates, has several branches, and releases tons of really quality monetary information online. There’s no stock they’re beholden too, or billionaire boy genius running the entire operation, and they certainly don
