I think these 'licking' lights are a fad that will pass. Some of the more recent Audis do an entire light show on starting up. This isn't about safety - more about show.

I think there's definitely a niche for a keyboard-driven PDA type device, ideally with some sort of e-ink display so it works nicely outside and doesn't require frequent charging. I think these days it would come with some sort o

These were a great read! I have made a headless linux laptop with vim as a fairly distraction free environment. I have also used a Psion 5MX to take notes while out and about, and my only caveat for those wanting to use retro devices for

Why is polycarbonate inferior to metal? It won't slip out your hands so easily and it is far tougher than soft aluminium.

I have a benchmade made of ATS-34 from Hitachi. Soon after, they seemed to switch to US steels (S30V and 154CM). I always wondered if it was due to changes in import tariffs.

Tesla have got EV infrastructure figured out. Here in the UK if you want to go for long journeys you need distributed high speed charging. Teslas are also efficient with the electricity and have decent range, while being pretty fast. Tho

There's something a bit weird about this article. I totally buy post-viral fatigue syndrome, and that there's certainly a possibility of it occurring post COVID-19, particularly since it is a virus. But alarm bells started ringi

Also, why linux? Linux is the kernel, which is not what is being run, more like everything on a gnu/linux system apart from linux.

I'm going to have to read that, as came across it in this[1] article by his ghostwriter, who puts it down to Julian being paranoid. quote here: How far was he willing to go in order to fuck everybody off? The answer came on 1 September

Any pointers on how to do this? I run into problems with online purchases, and find out easier to switch to chrome than try and authorise various sites on the fly.

You might like the mass cytometry reconstruction of the human haematopoietic system [1]. I've done a bit of scRNA-seq and mass cytometry, and the issue I have with scRNA-seq is the tiny dynamic range it has compared to flow/mass

The sequenced genome is freely available to all to look at, and compare to other genomes. While gene editing is not my field, if SARS-Cov-2 looked obviously man-made, I don't think any single institution / country could stop an i

At the moment, no. The rejection letter is written to the authors, and I think that most authors would be mortified if their rejection letters were made available. At that point the authors can attempt to send it to another journal. Ther

A strangely written paper, with some strong statements, underlining and bold sections. I'm not sure I buy their premise that the origin of the virus is censored in peer reviewed journals, and certainly it doesn't look like they t

Have you come across coolretroterm? It simulates the snow and wobble of those screens, and I think, does a reasonable job. Not sure if it would work with a graphical program though.

While Linus kicks off about things, he doesn't tend to outright refuse things. I don't think he sees himself as the gatekeeper of the kernel and that is evident in the way the kernel developed right from the beginning. That has

You would expect those deaths to show a signal in the all-cause, excess mortality. When I last checked, somehow, US still had lower excess mortality than the UK per capita. Although numbers are very low in the UK, whereas they are still p

Taking one step back, this applies to coronavirus and data in general. We don't have accurate data on case numbers, because testing capacity has varied with time and between countries, and the precise specificity and sensitivity of th
