I imagine the increased surface area of the worm drive may cause more loss to friction than desirable.

Apple is THE consumer tech company in the USA. Its their darling. The only way the USA will rule against Apple is that if they are losing them money elsewhere.

If the EPA could instantly ban chemicals and disable specific verticals then it would be used as a weapon. Just lobby against your competition's process, and kill them the moment the regulation is enacted. Regulations should be strong,

PFAS are a class of chemicals, not specific molecules. Depending on your database there are thousands or millions of them. Broadly they are fluorinated carbon chains of an arbitrary length. They are analogous to oils and fatty acids with Fl

Probably not. The line between fluorinated and nonflourinated is very clear. For more standard organic molecules like BPA small changes can actually change bio activity significantly.

Penrose tilings have similar issues. You can’t just combine them any possible way. There only a few valid vertex arrangements (tile positions around a point) to result in infinite aperiodic tiling. If you mess up, the resulting overlap can

Some bacteria are capable of naturally taking up genetics of nearby bacteria. There are other methods for horizontal gene transference. It happens more in simple organisms, but even humans are thought to have DNA in a genome transferred by

Reminder that art is cyclic. This reminds me of the Memphis airbrushed geometric art from the 80s. The latest flat design cycle is dead, and one way to evolve is take the latest generation (flat) and combine it with current retro trend (80s

Pretty much. Its just that most people are too lazy to look through results and synthesize information themselves. Also it would be helpful if the LLM could identify outdated or conflicting information, but I don't know if that is with

"Human in the Loop" will be the major cooling factor of this hype cycle. Any feature proposal I hear always includes, "and of course there is a human in the loop to verify the output." The human needs the ability to crea

I guess I don't really think of HTML as "sequential" but I definitely do think of it as "composed." Meaning I don't often consider siblings elements, but I often do consider parent/child elements. Anchor t

Common ones like JavaScript, Java, C#, etc. They all have a stack, but aren't stack oriented like Assembly or Forth. The stack in modern languages is abstracted so you don't have to worry about pushing/popping values in a spe

Why is the iterator implemented as a GOTO instead of something like the following? Genuine question, I don't use stack based langs. <loop> <loop-statement></loop-statement> </loop>

Isn't Developer DX mostly a way to get developers locked into your platform? I have avoided Next.js for this reason, it seems like just a way to funnel developers towards Vercel. DX is largely a service specific problem since its coupl

Star Wars blasters fire bolts of plasma, they aren't lasers. Cloud city mines the gas for them. Star Trek phasers are closer to laser weapons.

There is a big difference between managed archives and the media itself. Services like Iron Mountain predate the modern Cloud.

Sounds like a good choice. An internship is going to be much more useful than a long paper that no one reads. Too bad it took AI to fully realize this.

I don't understand this. I don't think we should have facial recognition tracking us as we walk down our streets, and I do think the TSA is mostly a jobs program, but airports are already high security areas. I have to buy a ticke

The platform layer of the "make your own game" game is always too heavy and too limited to compete with a dedicated engine in the long run. Also the monetization strategy is bad for professionals.

This is becoming so true. I have read so many documents in the last year that are obviously from a GPT, especially when it’s about something new to a group. But in the end, I would rather get a half baked GPT doc than a quarter baked junior
