I open sourced my first project months after Sourceforge was born. I've been doing open source continuously since then. I've lead 3 open source projects. Most companies have bought into the old "Frat Boy" meme, albeit in

Prions are in the brain. The vaccine does not cross into the brain. Could someone suggest how this could possibly work?

I know I'm old. My parents used to leave us in the car all the time when they went shopping. We even had spitball fights with the kids in the next car.

Yesterday I spent 2 hours on the phone remotely installing my software on a user's machine. That seems above-and-beyond expectations but, hey, it is easier than trying to debug through email. And I now have a very happy user. But requi

At sufficiently high temperatures you overcome all molecular binding energies. The result would be free atoms. Spinning the resulting plasma would separate the atoms by atomic mass. This is basically a high-temp version of a cracking tower

I expect to see major damage to open source. Quite a few projects will be abandoned because people will lose access.

Great. Now embed it into a device with 8 1/2 x 11 inch actual screen area with a color e-paper screen and a micro-usb. I read research papers on tablets all the time and not one of them seems to be able to show the whole page as large

Wouldn't it be great if feathers, PMODs, etc. all used ROS2 to provide publish/subscribe and services so that anything could "just work"?

I've looked at tape backup. It seems to have 2 problems. Tape is re-writeable which means that a ransomware attack could overwrite the tape. Tape is wildly expensive for some reason. This seems odd to me. I wrote a tape-based archive s

I'm actually looking for local hardware solutions. Sending every change to everything up to AWS would be wildly expensive both in bandwidth and cash. It would also put all of your data "in the cloud" (aka on other people&#x27

Instead of a single column with ~25 links there is enough screen space for 2 columns of links, thus ~50 per page. It could be new2.ycombinator.com
