The idea a vaccine can be safely made in less than a year is absolutely insanity. Many of these things shouldn't even be considered vaccines in the traditional sense. Are there any vaccines out on the market today that are not one of t

Unless you're a teacher over the age of 55, your risk, even around a bunch of school children, is incredibly low (95% of fatalities in the US are over 55, with most of those being over 65). I've read a few of these "long term

It's pretty amazing Alex made that Mastodon to Pleroma migrator. Moon had some early scripts that didn't work out so well and he ended up loosing them anyway. Seems like an insane amount of work. I still maintain both a Mastodon a

Interesting that it's implemented via a table with all the image keys and individual links. Seems like a better implementation for this would be an image map, although I'm not sure how well those are supported in modern browsers,

"Debt: The First 5,000 Years" is still my favorite non-fiction book. It shows readers a really unique perspective on the history of debt, money and slavery. Graeber was an incredible author. May he rest in peace.

CGP Grey is another animator. Looking at his Patreon, he's current at over $40k/month. Considering he's mentioned having a staff now, I'm sure that gets split between his entire project, but it still seems like it's

What's a good open source JSON viewer GUI (or TUI) with Linux support (with collapsing trees, searching, filtering, diff, etc)? I had these exact same concerns last time I was trying to look for one. I found some online JSON tools and

I got a 2080-Ti last year and I have yet to really run into a situation where I couldn't play a modern game, at 4K, with almost everything set to max (but I also don't game over 60fps). I'm sure this will really push those 4k

The nice thing about 3D graphics is you can play those old PS games on an emulator on a modern machine at a higher resolution. There's a law of diminishing returns of course, and the older textures will look blocky even after being ups

When we get to the point where we won't need as much oil, it will be because of drastic population decline, and hence, we won't need as much water either. Exponential growth cannot continue forever.
