Oh look it's a Humane AI Pin without the AI, or rechargeable battery, or ... It's an app. It's an app that will run on somebody else's platform. Putting that in a ring has so marginal benefits (you can't find a phon

I had an old Samsung washing machine and it was annoying with chimes, maybe it was not Schubert or I never realized it.

Yes, it's just evil. I sure would not buy a Samsung TV laden with crap, I just will not do it. I run an old high-end commercial plasma display and otherwise watch video on dumb computer monitors or iPads. And yes I know, an iPad is far

Zero chance I'll purchasing any household device from Samsung. Not with all the crapware and spyware they pile onto their systems. Zero chance I'd purchase a household appliance with a large screen. WTF would I want that for. More

Well done Steinberg/Yamaha. At the same time Steinberg also open sourced their ASIO audio hardware interface standard but under GPL3. GPL2 here would have made more sense to me to align with the Linux kernel GPL2 only licensing. So why

Carplay is absolutely a requirement for me for any purchase. Mmmm maybe Barra knows something special about typical GM purchasers, or maybe she is just loony tunes nuts.

Surely one of the the main reason to program in Lisp (and Haskell, and ???) is so you can write blog posts about doing so :-) (I do really like Lisp).

I would GTFO, IBM ain't your friend and ain't your savior and are unlikely to invest and the worse may come with increasing IBM management sticking their fingers in the pie. The folks who did well out of this already know, they ha

Oh God more Audiophile snake oil idiots. I feel sorry for Mend it Mark putting up with YouTube's copyright stupidity triggered by these idiots. I thought his well natured response video was a lot of fun. ( https://www.youtube

Given Mullenweg's behavior I wish WP Engines and their very capable litigation attorneys nothing but the best of luck, which I doubt very much they will need. Jeez, how to torch a brand's reputation.

Yes, great article. And now can we convince folks with http+https websites to shut down http access and only offer https. I've seen simple mistakes like only partial redirects happening. Large numbers of internal links that still go to

A three bladed prop modification along with floats is very common. Wipaire, the leading float manufacturer has its own STC for that. In combination with STOL kits is not uncommon either. I expect the Robinson STOL STC explicitly accommodate

What a horrible click-bait title. There is nothing about a C185 or one modified with a STOL kit that is unstallable. A better title would be something like "Clueless pilot stalls aircraft. Which unfortunately is not an uncommon thing.

As a science (and science fiction) nerd kid growing up in Australia in the 1970/80s I got a kick out of tracking station 43 mention in Epilogue 2 of Jeff Wayne's Musical Version of War of the Worlds (1978)... [NASA unmanned landin

The ADS-B Out situation with gliders in the USA is complex. Many high-performance modern gliders used for racing and cross country flying are equipped with Mode-S transponders with 1090ES Out (either 14 CFR 91.227 ADS-B Out compliant or TAB

Military aircraft operators in the USA are pretty cautions about non-ADS-B Out or non-transponder operations. Air Force bases etc. will have active MACA (Mid-Air Collision Avoidance) programs, with aircraft and controllers working to reduce
