By the letter of the contract, it's an open-and-shut case in the team's favor: "Indecent, offensive or immoral behaviour" is a bannable offense. The article doesn't mention how spicy his OnlyFans account is, but I

The problem I've had with MRNA vaccines is that we decided a lengthy multi-year trial protocol was necessary to ensure vaccines are safe and effective. Then COVID hit, and suddenly we decided to rush MRNA [1] vaccines into mass product

All kinds of nice things appear in a college dorm's dumpster on move-out day -- especially if said college attracts a lot of non-local or international students who will be flying. Selling takes a lot of time and planning ahead, shipp

If you care about this, vote with your wallet. If you don't like a game's phone-home or planned-obsolescence "features," don't buy it (or wait for a deal and don't pay full price). I personally buy very few ga

Yeah, when I'm having Python performance issues, my first instinct is to reach for Pypy. My second instinct is to rewrite the "hot" part in C or Rust.

I was sure the blinking cursor was a staple of the mainframe folks' terminals years, maybe decades before Apple came on the scene, but I looked up some YouTube videos and the DEC VT52 (released 1974-1975) seems to have not had a blinki

The problem with means-testing Social Security is that the government's promised some people "Social Security will be there for you" when they were in their 20's and 30's, and now you're taking it away in their

If Alice runs her own DNS server, where does she get the information "example.com resolves to 10.23.45.6"? At some point Alice will have to ask someone else -- Bob, let us say -- and Bob won't give her that information if he

There's been a lot of news about how US government funding cuts to programs like USAID, people say those programs are vital. Could some of those initiatives be picked up by private philanthropy from Gates and others?

According to Wikipedia, glucose monitors have sensors under the skin. Seems a little invasive to do as a screening test. I wonder if you could use spectroscopy to analyze glucose content in blood? For example, take an existing oxygen mete

With regular life insurance, you bet you'll die. With a tontine, you bet you'll live. The latter seems much more sensible to me.

I'd personally avoid such games. And I think it's a cat-and-mouse battle the anti-cheat folks are doomed to lose. If you have good reverse engineering chops, it seems like it would be fairly trivial to patch the "Am I runnin

Presumably it works by inducing high voltages in antennas that aren't designed for it. I wonder if you could counter it by putting diode shunts in the right places?

There are plenty of people saying these tariffs will not work. But a person used to be able to graduate high school and get a job that could support a house with a yard, a car, a non-working spouse and children. How we get that level of pro

As far as dynamic behavior, why can't you just do physics simulations? From my understanding of chemistry you don't really need to model inner shell electrons at all. And you can get pretty far without needing quantum physics (e.
