What's funny is that most mammals can't distinguish between red & green. For example: the reason why tigers have red camouflage is that their prey cannot distinguish them from the background green of the forest, combined with

All resources are scarce. But if nobody wants our world and they're scared of intelligent life then just send out Von Neumann probes to ensure intelligence isn't showing up elsewhere. First mover's advantage nullifies the ent

If there is oxygen breathing carbon based intelligent life that wants our planet they could've easily spotted and taken it anytime within the past 2 billion years. It seems safe to say that there isn't life that wants our planet.

I appreciate your empathy here. This advisory wasn't even available in March or April of 2020: there was nothing. The URL has only existed since April of 2021.

I've been WFH for 4 years now and thoroughly enjoy it. I enjoy isolation, I love the intensity of coding that I can get done. I'm generally more introverted. That doesn't make the pandemic fun and rainbows. It's still be

Your misapprehension is that children's first encounter with Racism is from Elmo. Racist parents exist and might be absentee enough to let their child grow up watching Sesame Street. Cognitive bias is subtle and insidious and children

Probably the number of times using the dark web for an assassin immediately gets people arrested? It's basically all honeypots. It doesn't make sense to generate a potential electronic trail when you can keep it all person to pers

"Not on the internet" I doubt multinational corporations are hiring assassins from the dark web. I suspect if they are using assassins for hire it's most likely a person to person networking effort: They have a rich friend wh

Right, and it's worth emphasizing that companies do not provide free speech, nor are they required to. If you want that to change talk to Congress.

Not a doctor but that seems right to me. Estrogen is a clotting factor and if you have elevated risk markers (like Factor V Leiden) that risk skyrockets when you add extra estrogen. Many insurance companies get angry when you ask for blood

That would be more applicable if IRC had the broad appeal or ease of use of major social networks, however despite being around longer it has been repeatedly eclipsed in user count by every contending service. IRC has no power to shape nati

Not only impressively coded but a beautiful result as well fascinating to have that real time, frame by frame comparison. Great job! It only reinforces that I really need to learn my matrix math.

While I think ebay bans are ridiculous most of this furor is about old, very racist books that Seuss himself apologized for later in life. 99% of Seuss readers have never read Oh Beyond Zebra, and nobody will miss the Cat's Quizzer.

The Seuss books being removed aren't Green Eggs & Ham: they're the older racist books that Seuss apologized for later.

Because they have a prewarm system and 12v lights etc. It helps conserve your actual battery and works well. They have a separate 12v system from their 400v+ system that they use to run the motor.

A filling that wasn't even required because it was de-duping already de-duped data instead of just inserting it into a list (or a hashmap, as suggested in the post).

Maybe to some extent, but most of coding in my experience is planning things out, figuring out exactly what you're trying to do and then just writing it. Bug fixes have a bit more trial and error to them obviously, but it's usuall

I always wondered how much of a problem 2M+ in the red is on Robinhood. I mean can they actually expect you to pay back what they legally shouldn't have let you have? Are you 2m in debt or in trouble for hacking or what?
