   I've successfully used mmap() a few times in the last few years... Luckily for me the use cases I've had weren't really subject to the same problems I've since read about here and elsewhere: 1) I'm always mmap()ing

   You have to cut down the trees at maturity and preserve them and re plant in order to actually reduce carbon in the atmosphere. We should probably be doing this (as long as we're careful not release more co2 than we capture doing all t

   We should be funding the shit out of Fusion and molten salt fission reactors. We're gonna also need to build shitloads of carbon scrubbers and water desalinization plants.

    Many crops would not need so many pesticides if they were grown in close proximity to the other plants they naturally occur with... in some cases this is because other plants attract predator insects that keep other insects at bay... humans

    There is an estimated 100 billion nuerons in the human brain. We know from information theory that DNA is not nearly long enough to describe all of those connections. This means that most of the complexity of the brain is emergent. I envisi

    I just switched to Mac for work 2 months ago... Before that I was using a 2016 Razer Blade Stealth (which I loved)... Touchbar is worse than useless for me because I am constantly accidentally grazing the esc key on the touch bar with my ri

    Personally, I think global's with constructors are kind of an anti pattern. I've noticed a high correlation between crappy app's and app's with a lot of pre main() code. Especially if some of your global's have thre

    A few years back I became obsessed with securing a server (a previous one had been hacked). I noticed after a while that what started out reasonable (updating software, closing ports, etc)... had become unreasonable (writing custom code to

    You're not wrong. But when you open the door to private companies throttling, then scenarios like this become possible: www.comcasttube.com - like youtube.com, but faster... because we're slowing down youtube.com

    The way to do this is to create a platform that takes care of the boring stuff and hosts the code in exchange for the right to invest in it. Then you just invest in whoever's algorithm works best... and you certainly don't require
