   +1 for single-sign on (opposed to a gazillion of passwords). Why is manual signup still a thing at all? I'd expect people today to start with single sign-on.

   If you are interested in this topic (coding on mobile), can you take a look at my pet project https://github.com/stefanhaustein/tantilla and and let me know what you think? O:)

   It should be organized as a tree where each level has 3x2-1 children for the corresponding RGB bits... (local top level is the color with the current leading bits repeated)

   I suppose testing would be easier for a cure (compared to a vaccine)? Given that only the "adapter" needs to be specialized, I was wondering why there don't seem to be any approaches based on antibody mass-production....

   Is synthetisizing antibodies a thing? Is it hard? If so, why?

   In Germany, there is Fernuniversität Hagen. I guess it scales better than "regular" universities, so there isn't really a need for more of them to meet demand? https://www.fernuni-hagen.de/english/

    Same here. Can't eat anything with the smallest traces of the leafs. Seeds are ok though. Didn't find them tasting "soapy", but I must admit that I have never really tried actual soap, so it's hard to compare...

    This. The problem with unused extensibility is that it tends to get into the way of the extension that you will actually need... It's easy to extends something simple in any way. It's hard to refactor something that's complex

    Thanks for the direct link! I can't find any vimeo reference in the page source, perhaps it depends on country or adblocker or whatever. I guess part of my confusion stemmed from mixing up the camshaft and the crankshaft (the former se

    Does anybody have a pointer to a schema / animation how this works? Is this a radial motor?

    Simplified integration with some host environment? But now I am wondering what it would take to run "regular" code on a GPU -- even if it's super inefficient -- just to avoid the need of a "host" environment /

    Where exactly is this in the range from running an actual JVM on a GPU to scheduling some tasks using a restricted Java subset limited to specialized libraries on a GPU? The title seems to suggest the former but I'd be quite surprised

    Apparently there are still companies left thinking that IT is not their core business. Surprised to see this in logistics though. This didn't go well for Deutsche Bank (there were additional significant consumer facing outages in Germa

    Thanks for the clarifications! I wasn't aware of the Annex K amendment and the custom token facility. Would you say the token facility is actually useful for Markdown including advanced features such as lists or tables? Wrt. [2]: Are y

    SGML is not a true subset of XML, as XML allows explicit self-closing tags (they can be declared implicitly self-closing in a SGML DTD though). Also, SGML is as much a "superset" of HTML as the concept "language" is a su

    It was a serious question where I don't know the answer... Shares are publicly traded at NASDAQ. The Murdoch family seems to hold 39% (of the shares with voting power?) according to Wikipedia... Not sure how feasible it would be to buy
