If I scribble a random time stamp on a piece of paper and frame it and call it a clock, it's still right at least once a day (24 hour notation or bust :) ) The original article was just a garbage native advertisement with the wrong con

I don't really get what you're saying here; it's not about the affordability (but let's put that aside for a second), it's that the entire payment model is based on a theory that is demonstrably disproven; the GP po

Why? It's extremely common that massive 5xx errors across a service are largely just ignored unless it reaches a certain threshold. This is what I've observed in virtually every single large project I've worked on or with, an

I think this is an unkind assessment to Kaczynski. What he did was wrong, there isn't denying that, but I think people forget he really was a very good mathematician and that he very likely was a subject in the MK-Ultra experiments wit

I think it's good to be skeptical, as there is indeed a lot of misinformation and speculation that has been more or less codified as fact regarding the CIA and other departments during these eras. I also don't think necessarily th

Seconding this; during my B2B support days, this was essential, especially, since as security got a bit crazy, not all systems had telnet installed anymore and you weren't always in a position to install it. Windows' best equivale

I do agree with the idea of wiki is the right way, but I think most orgs overestimate to an extreme degree how much work a "simple wiki" (my words) really takes to be useful. One of the disadvantages of a mailing list that is actu

This is already done, at least with many modern courts. Substantiating your evidence has to happen via a pretty specific process, and there is an entire process for entering stuff into evidence with rules regarding chain of custody, validat

I don't think such a semantic argument is necessary; invest just means you're committing resources to get benefits, it's not purely a financial arrangement. I'm positive in your work you think in terms of resource invest

I think this kind of misses the bigger reason that there isn't a lot of formal discussion on psychedelics; people are worried/nervous to talk about it too openly because psychedelics are "hard" drugs. Even for research p

it’s a bad idea that is only punishing persons who have nothing to do with what you’re trying to stop. as you said, it won’t even bother the actual criminals, so why punish people for actions that are not their own and not under their contr

Keep in mind, childhoods are a lot different now because you are exposed to a lot of information and people you never would have had a chance to meet when you were a child. As a kid in the 90's, my parents gave my brothers and I a choi
