It's not just your lungs though... You know that pain you get in your sinuses and ears and other air-pockets in your body when you swim to the bottom of the deep-end of the pool? That's from a pressure difference of like .3 bar.

30 meters is around the commonly accepted limit for recreational scuba diving. If you are diving you can take a breath of air from your regulator at 30 meters and then, keeping your airway open, ascend to the surface on a single breath. Be

Time at pressure is the key, without question. The longer you breathe at pressure, the more time there is for gas (nitrogen, mainly) to saturate your system (until you are at equilibrium, anyway). Release the pressure, and it's like o

You do..(though it's simple, you just sort of humm or go "aaaaah" to yourself, silently.. that keeps your airway open). No innate reaction - over-inflation would require a positive pressure applied to the lungs - normally as

I did a form that worked wonderfully... you entered a zip/postcode (first, before country and such). The form would look it up in a background ajax call. It wouldn't tell you this or block your actions. If it found a match in our

The convention of using relatively-short service-based host portions of an FQDN pre-dates the WWW. It was common to use mail, gopher, irc, whatever for various servers from a functional point of view. Whether it was an A record or a CNAME

It absolutely depends on the scope and features of the application... the question would hold more meaning if it were more specific?

On exit? They don't even look at my passport on exit.

Oh, if they don't know how anyone found out then that's another issue.. but if tehy are made aware that you placed this ad daily and stopped after you were ordered to not reveal that you had been subpoenad.. your intent is very cl

You're missing the point though. The judge won't tell you not to lie. He'll tell you not to communicate a fact to people. If you already had a system to communicate that fact to people in a novel way, and you use it to do so,

You can't reveal that you've been served. What you actually tell people is your problem, not the courts.

They judge won't have to compel you to lie. He'll simply instruct you not to communicate with your customers in any way about the warrant. If you cancel the canary and your customers find out about the warrant, the judge won&#x27

If they obtained it from NSA spying on facebook, yeah, that's bad... But that seems really really unlikely. Much more likely is it was a piece of public information on facebook and she got busted.

Someone working in another country is doing work someone in the country could also be doing, depriving them of a potential job. That's why you need a visa.

Canadians don't need a visa for tourist visits to the US, and passports aren't stamped on exit. It's an incredibly BAD idea in my books, but it's still probably relatively easy for a Canadian to spend a whole lot of tim

Ack.. that's just incredibly poor judgement. If you have to lie to the officials when entering the country, you really shouldn't expect that a closer look later on is going to get you a visa - as soon as they discover you lied ab

I think this is a common fallacy. To randomly pick an example - sure, automatic filesystem snapshots are a cakewalk these days, and a decade ago they were rather expensive. It seems logical to assume that things that we needed admins to do

Online transaction providers, like Liberty Reserve, Paypal, credit card processors, your bank's website, and so on, are really not digital currencies at all... they are transaction processors. Bitcoin, and things resembling it are actual cr

Isn't skin effect an AC thing in cabling? The reason DC power is sometimes preferred for high-voltage high-power transmission is specifically because there is no skin effect and the cables can therefore handle more power per weight.

There is a good difference between a sysadmin's workstation and/or what I'll call "management servers" - those we use for our own tools and whatnot, and those that we keep up for production use, where uptime is critical and knowing exactly

This, specifically. If they want to deal with ownership do some kind of leasing agreement... otherwise, let's not have public enforcement propping up the business model.

It's a business - you don't sell stuff if there is no money in it. It made you more money being out of the store for that price than sitting in the store... whether it was through rebates from the manufacturer, some contract deal, etc is i

Maybe it's me, but while this is one beautiful video, and they weighted it pretty well, the motion seems really natural, it's pretty obvious what's going on.

There's absolutely nothing wrong with it in principle. It's only that as the web grew up, and websites became less a bunch of static files and increasingly an application, or more commonly a pile of application-like messes run by many diff

While this lets those who are going far above and beyond to gather information, the solution is for the storage numbers to be published market-wide, to take away the edge a few have - with enough market pressure this could possibly happen.

Well, there's a difference between things you don't want to give up, and things you can't give up because you'll get sick as a dog, and/or require hospitalization and maybe die.

How did they trick people? Genuinely curious...

While this is all true - stolen passports are a very real problem, and when I had mine stolen, and got a replacement, it clearly said on one of the first pages "This passport replaces passport #XXXXXXX reported stolen on DATE". Yes, I lost

The same argument works for any of those systems.. not just linux. The reality is many people try many systems and settle on one they like.

Not such a pain once you figure it out... And for any of us compiling stuff... seriously, are we pretending we don't all use remote linux slices/machines/whatever all over the place? My laptops are just workstations to do day-to-day life s
