Arguably Raisup should have been better prepared for this eventuality. But , I suspect that many of the people here talking about how their system is infallible made it that way because they, had time and/or money to spare working o

Settings -> Privacy -> Advertising. None of that seems buried to me. Took me under 15 seconds to locate the privacy menu. Also their advertising info/policy is accessible from that menu as well and is written in very clear, easy

I think you miss the point. If there is one journal that specializes in your particular field, what else are you supposed to publish to? And if you aren't publishing to somewhere that your colleagues read, you aren't producing m

Just remember. Not everybody studies particle physics. There are fields where there are no other options .

I love this article, but it fails to highlight one of the most important things about Calvin and Hobbes. The art is brilliant, and I'm pretty sure there is no explanation or description that I can give that will do it justice. I don&#x

I think it goes even deeper than that. I firmly believe in my own right to privacy, but as an adult, I also have some understanding of the consequences and implications of my actions, and this informs what I do, and what I share. Children d

Is the grind an integral part of the gameplay, flow and pacing of the game? Fine. Is the grind a way to slow progression in order to make micro-payments more desirable? Fuck. That.

Turns out it doesn't matter if your budget is a billion dollars or a few hundred. The end result is still mostly battery. Got a kick out of that.

Holy shit. I've never heard anything even remotely like that from a pc speaker. How the hell did they accomplish that on a 1981 pc?!?!

I am genuinely surprised that so many people were upset enough about the US' exclusion from a top 10 most whatever whatevers article that they felt the need to rant about it in the comments. US education statistics suck compared to o

Absolutely, and on a totally unrelated note, in case anyone asks, the reason that spy satellite happens to contain a nuclear warhead is for self destruction purposes only. Consider it a safety feature ;)

This is an example of the walled garden working exactly as intended by Apple. In this example I approve of it, but I agree that if you are developing for iOS you should be aware of the power Apple can exert on the platform.

This is unfair. Obviously our knowledge is incomplete. We have yet to make that all important connection between general relativity and qft and as far as I can tell, next steps towards that process are not clear. So banging shit together ev

I can't imagine anything that is practical, fits in its lane, and can also fly efficiently. Not saying that it can't be done, but I have a hard time envisioning what it might look like.

I was taken aback by the BFS thing at first as well, but after thinking about it, I'm not sure I would be so confident about writing one if I didn't already know the basic structure due to the 50 or so times I had to implement som

When you write software at any level on top of the OS the number of possible causes for bugs starts out at unmanageable. If you allow for unreliable hardware, the possible cause count rises to unthinkable. As a result, I prefer to pretend t

Assuming what you say is true, HN continues its trend of having great content for software and related topic, and being next to useless for meaningful physics or medical news. I didn't notice this till my buddy who is a physicist point

Durable yes, good edge retention? Not so much. Restaurants like this tend to prefer softer more durable steels, like that found in your classic Henkels (usually refereed to as German stainless). A chef's personal knives tend to be a ve

While unsavory, I feel like loot boxes are closer to a raffle than what we typically consider gambling, and to treat them as gambling would open up a serious gray area.

I think I agree with the parent. While this can be made into a Gettier case by messing with the scope of the JTB (pull request broke it vs change broke it) I don't think it really works as intended by the author, and it feels like a po
