I also love playing RTS's like that, and the one I have found which delivers big time is Planetary Annihilation. The AI is fantastic ( without cheating ), you can load up to 12 AI's, and you can make massive maps that allow multip

I don't think you can draw any kinds of conclusions about who is "keeping libraries alive" based on the data presented. The question is who has visited a library ( at least once ) in the previous 12 months, and even with that

I think the business and wage tax are putting a dampener on growth, but they haven't prevented the city from still putting on tech jobs. If you don't mind the wage tax I knew lots of people who did reverse commutes and they worked

I just moved from Philadelphia to DC for a job, and I am still biased towards Philadelphia. The jobs I see around here seem to be slanted towards government and non profits. The biggest problem is the absurd high cost of living, Housing pri

It might not be video. For a while my firefox was forcing the system to use the dGPU which caused the fan to spin and battery performance to drop. The cause was the google talk plugin that got loaded when I opened gmail.

While it may fit most of the criteria, I wouldn't say Martin Eberhard and Marc Tarpennin were the visionary founders mentioned and Elon Musk and company tried to bring in adult supervision before Elon sunk enough of his own money into

Magit is still the reason I haven't jumped ship to Atom of VSCode at this point and I would hate to see anything happen to it that would negatively effect its development. As far as the argument goes, I feel the platform is _better_ by

The title of this is pretty misleading. They are not encrypting emails, they are encrypting email traffic. The E-mails will still be plain text _unless_ the user decides to encrypt them, which is functionality that has been around since the

While the USDS does build things, the model is to have them partner with career civil servants and contractors and get them to implement industry best practices. So there is still overhead when handing off between tours, but the bigger prob

If your counting the money it will never be worth it. It makes no financial sense to go work for the USDS, you will get paid less, you will work in a much worse environment, with more frustration then you can imagine. However you will direc

Its amazing to see how "solving" the problems can often not solve the problem. Immediately when faced with a error that happened after five minutes I might just put a sleep(301) in the startup script, but that totally would have m

I dont know I could see something like the MIC product line or the Larabee work making a similar pivot for Intel.

I cant help but draw parallels between this and NNTP. This is essentially a really nice skin over newgroups, and thats not a bad thing at all. We have seen just how successful a modern UX can be on a old protocol with slack providing a UX t

The ratio is way off from what you would use in Mayo ( Mayonnaise is 1 part water to 16 parts oil, cornell BBQ is 2 parts water to 1 part oil ), but its along the same lines, which is why you want to get a good emulsion. There is a slight v

Yeah, poultry seasoning is mostly sage and thyme. different brands will add in Oregano, Marjoram or rosemary, but they all grind it to a powder which ruins it for me. If you want to really class up your BBQ go get some Herbs de Provence and

When you make this yourself you have to be careful not to let the sauce break. Add in the egg and oil and beat vigorously then slowly add the vinegar while mixing. You want a nice emulsified mixture. Also make sure you base every 5-10 minut

I use my yubikey and I love it. I have it set up to do GPG, SSH, TOTP, and U2F and it works great. It is worlds better then any other Smart Card or second factor out there, and U2F is literally just plug it in and tap it.

So is this a policy to redistribute wealth or to deal with climate change? Because it is advertised as something to deal with climate change, but all I see in it is a way to redistribute wealth. If we are serious about climate change then w

I agree, and we will continue to see those jobs grow. I don't see this as us moving away from green jobs and a reduced carbon footprint. This is about us signing away our competitiveness because someone thinks it makes things fair. We

You are looking at this from a macro level and completely ignoring the actual repercussions these policy's have. These other countries who you are saying need to "Develop" are not behind the "Developed" countries in

You are correct that there are many more people in China and that being poor in China is worse then being poor in America, but the solution is not to export global competitiveness to other countries until their quality of living is on par w

Its bad because its not a level playing field. Its tips the global economy away from Americans because they are too "Developed". Turns out there are lots of Americans in fly over country who disagree.
