There's probably much more complexity to it, but I wonder if a tidally locked planet could have a habitable ring of mild weather along the terminator.

There's actually a lot of processing done to the picture in the store and typically in the out-of-the-box settings, that's pretty annoying and overdone when watching regular content. During my first weeks with a 4K OLED TV I'

When I read the original question, I thought that yes - he was essentially a bully, but he probably didn't think of himself as one. But that smiley face - he must have felt at least somewhat like a bully just then.

Oh, I feel like it’s quite the opposite! As a teenager I created a crappy non-English website about a topic that interested me, added it to a few local search engines (which worked more like directories) and it got tons of traffic, engageme

Is that anything new though? I’d describe my university experience similarly and in my case it happened 15 years ago, in a completely different part of the world.

It highlights the tendency to overshare, thus hurts his future job prospects. Employers are typically hoping their employees don't play journalists, publicly writing a story about the company on the side.

When you're dealing with multiple repos, projects, tasks, contributors etc, version control quickly becomes a very multi-dimensional thing. I generally prefer CLI software where possible, and will happily use vanilla git for personal p

It's not such an outrageous guess, Russia has been building up the army presence at the Ukrainian border for months before the invasion, citing military exercises as the official reason.

It's interesting to note that must nature documentaries are essentially composites too. It's a common practice to create scenes using footage from different times and locations, staged, with altered sound etc. All presented with a

So ultimately, the Chinese people are at fault, because they actually demand restrictions? But other Chinese people demand the opposite? Are they like a vocal minority? The situation is very confusing looking from the outside. Couldn't

I haven’t read the book yet, but typically Herzogs works have a “meta” feel to them, where the main events become more of a backdrop and the camera focuses on the people describing them. I don’t find them to be the best way to learn about a

Consoles themselves are typically sold at cost or loss even. Sony makes majority of the money on games and associated services. In that model it just makes sense keep the release cycle as long as possible. In the phone business there are as

Im sure that Walmart is the gold standard of cost optimization, but it's not universal. Many stores operate on very low margins, so it's easy to imagine that just a few missing cans of baby formula actually brings down the profita

Because the iPhone came out in that period? I doubt that he's using iPhone 4 which came out in 2010. By the same logic my Mac is an 80s tech.

By computation in this case I mean evaluating the state of the cube after a series of moves. It’s extremely difficult for a human, but a computer can simulate millions of moves in a fraction of a second. So realistically, any modern compute

There are algorithms that are more efficient than the typical speed cubing methods, but are based on large amounts of computation, rather than pattern matching, thus unfit for humans.

In a startup setting, sure! The early employees are typically given a significant stake in the company, that might pay off one day. But there’s none of that in Twitter 2.0 so far. You’re entitled to your choices obviously, but for me person

What you’re talking about should work both ways. Earlier today he sent a message that he intends to make Twitter the highest performing tech company in the world. For such a team, even “competitive compensation” doesn’t sound quite enough.

It’s not that it should be considered norm, but in this case it’s simply a pay cut. Which, considering the situation, isn’t great. Most of the company has just been laid off and the remaining employees are being asked to work basically as h

That has also rung true to me in the Mediterranean. But it does make you wonder if the wine is actually so good, or it just tastes better on vacation.

It does keep the tempo, but also limits you to a single scale. So it does sound nice for a bit, but the song doesn't really go anywhere. There are some physical instruments that typically limit you to a single scale too, like a harmoni

It measures how NATO responds to singular strike on a random village, which isn’t very valuable knowledge.

They’ll strongly condemn. It was a mistake after all. What else should we do, strike a Russian village?

It caches the streams in background so the station changes are instantaneous, no need to wait for buffering. I've been toying with this idea for some time, but never really followed through. It's lovely to see it implemented by so

I’m in my mid-30s and I’m much stronger than I was in my 20s, even though I haven’t really worked out at any point. I guess it just accumulates.

Isn’t that actually a success story where the community eventually converged around a single protocol that really works?

I don't think that either the direct or remote methods presented in the film were humane. Certainly not what I meant. I do think though, that checking your e-mail at 9AM to see if you're fired is considerably worse.
