If you talk to a Ukrainian, they will tell you that the war will end when they win the war. I.E. they won’t stop fighting until the Russians are gone. So if the regions remain under Russian control, the fighting will continue. Given Russia

Why apply that standard to scooters and not to cars? Parked cars are strewn all across the road, taking up much more space. Some sit in the same place for weeks. The road outside my house is about 3x car widths across, there are private car

Don't know what Giphy has, but creating and sharing a gif from a movie would be fair use and not subject to copyright. You're not going to watch a movie in gif format, and it would be a derivative anyway.

It took me a long time to find it, but this is "the" search engine for PeerTube: https://sepiasearch.org/ This could be a reasonable entry point for a non-technical user who just wants to watch videos. If you laye

NFTs are obviously a bit silly, BUT, it would be nice if things bought on platforms like Steam, Roblox, Amazon, iTunes etc. were transferable to other games/platforms. The platform providers would still need to agree that a specific bl

Tailwind is popping up everywhere these days. I’m sold on it, but it seems a large number of people really don’t like it…

Yes but it’s unusable in 99% of apps, so it doesn’t matter how technically brilliant it is

Woah, 4 degrees Celsius temperature rise since 1970. 7 degrees warmer in winter. That's a lot, no wonder it's changing.

If it's just one or a handful of emails, or a small image, attach the image and use it's Content ID to refer to it in the HTML of the email: <img src="cid:some-image-cid" alt="img" /> pretty much all

Once I had a developer use a Meme image as an API response in development. It was funny, but it was surprisingly hard to explain to stakeholders during demos that this was not the real API response. I think I fielded questions from at least

I don’t think that works at all? Your buddy would have to mine that specific block to get the reward, which is based entirely on chance. You’d also have to spend as much on the POW electricity and hardware to have a chance of getting reward

Nice- but personally I prefer Identicons e.g. https://idbloc.co/blog/product/update/2019/05/09/toggles-ide... These are basically a hash in visual format.

I think the unbounded optimism / arrogance is that life as is will continue indefinitely, or just get better and better. That might happen, but climate change is one of very few things that will stop it (others being nuclear war, aster

No but if we keep polluting at this rate, in 500 years civilisations will crumble. If food supply chains fail we’ll see a bunch of wars break out and a global chain reaction that will destroy massive amounts of progress. Most likely we’ll l

In 500 years? It has to be 50 or there won’t be any societies to power in 500 years

If this scaling blog post is accurate, a global payment network at 1m transactions/second, decentralised, is massively valuable. Imagine if the only way to send a message to someone was through fb messenger or WhatsApp, and then someon

It takes much longer to cook from scratch than use processed food. If you're on the bread line it's better to spend that time working overtime. It also takes a long time to learn to cook effectively, and you need a decent kitchen,

But at scale you need lots of nodes/computational power and therefore lots of money. It doesn’t really make a difference whether you buy graphics cards in a pow world or ethereum in a pos world, you need lots of capital to be influenti

Why is using 3rd party email providers to send email so painful?

by crispyporkbites 5y ago
This is a bit misleading as the data is US only but the climate and weather doesn’t care about our made up borders. So to get a real picture of climate change you need to look at global weather patterns and temperature changes.

You missed a key point here- this data is USA only- which is not a very big part of the world. The poles are heating up much faster! Eg the North Pole rose 2-4c in the last 50 years: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clim

Personally, I've moved all of my funds from other currencies into Ethereum. Not that I think it will make lots of money, but because Ethereum actually could have utility, and has a solution to the climate change impacts of Bitcoin. So

I'm glad you wrote this - flying at scale is terrible for the environment. However it doesn't mean eating palm oil is ok. Whataboutism is even worse for the environment, there is always something you can do better and life has ma
