I thought you were joking, but just confirmed: a 13" Macbook Air M1 defaults to 256GB SSD, with a $200 upgrade cost to get to 512GB, +$400 if you want to hit 1TB.

Normally, I would agree that PIs receive too much credit off the backs of their subordinates, but Pauling's writings were really a cut above for the time. He legitimately seemed like a brilliant scientist or made foundational contribut

I am admittedly not up to date on the latest literature, but my understanding was that sugar was significantly worse than fat. Not necessarily that fat was free of negative health outcomes.

My only complaint about DBeaver is how powerful it is -I feel like I have only ever scratched 1% of the functionality it offers. I need a tutorial class on all of the goodies the platform can do. All of the tutorials I seem to find online a

After MtGox realized how much money they had lost, I would think that "in the bathtub" implied a significantly darker event than hygiene.

Curious what those would be. Again, too good to be true, but if we could vaccinate against cavities, that seems like an enormous amount of human misery eliminated for a one time investment.

The article highlighted a pretty ugly historical fact: that the first person to observe a neutron star did not receive credit for the discovery by the Nobel committee. >Controversially, Bell did not receive recognition in the 1974 Nobel

It is pretty amazing. Business of storing other people's data, and evidently notice of deletion is treated as a non-event. Instead of a Huge Big Deal that should be the top line communication to impacted customers until a migration pla

I was also thinking that salesmen will cold-call/email me at least three times before they give up. People with whom I have no business relationship try harder than a corporation taking someone's money.

You mean the platform that sold 120MM+ units? No True Scotsman aside, people can game how they choose. The bottom line is that many people are running new, AAA games on this tier of GPU. Is it the best possible fidelity? No, but presumably

I suddenly feel less badly about my ~$200 off the rack suit I wear twice a year. Nearly good enough for a world leader, good enough for me.

3 emails over six months is pretty lousy notification rate. At minimum, something sent the month of the shutdown would be appropriate. More ideally, would be an aggressive notification push of increasing frequency the closer to the shutdown

Even if all three emails were properly delivered, that is not sufficient notice for a storage service. Why is there not also a reminder on the dashboard? A financial service I use was recently purchased by another. The company has been aggr

Am I falsely remembering the world, or was there a time when sleep really did work fairly reliably? The new sleep states seem strictly worse with multiple issues.

There is somewhat fuzzy on where you even draw the line. Does someone moonlighting on their Wordpress side hustle count as a company? There are many of those which seem unlikely go bankrupt - the most frequent end state is the sole propriet

If nothing else, no photos is likely blocked permissions, but if there are no photos, contacts, location, health data, etc the sum of those parts is a very strong signal.

You could fly $300 drones around an airport and that would pose a significant enough safety hazard that would likely shutdown all traffic. Or shine those high powered laser pointers at the planes. Disrupting society is remarkably easy if yo
