I can't second this. Everytime I'm in the US I'm scared of all the friendly, smiling people, asking "How are you?" in such a friendly tone, it's delightful. Of course it's faked, anyone knows, and dare if

Russians can be the sincerest friends you know, smiling to you. They also can be your fiercest enemies, still smiling to you. Sometimes I think this is the source of the hollywood/McCarthy myth of bad russians. TL;DR: If all russians w

This story is interesting, but maybe the message is different to what we'd like to perceive?

If we'll figure this out, we'll (very) probably also have figured how out to calculate the effects of communicating with the past. So, no. This doesn't tell us anything about the possibility, it merily tells us, even if it _w

I suppose we both underestimate how far we've progressed in simulating physics. Either we're utterly, totally wrong in anything related to astrophysics or we have a basic grasp on fundamental stuff like aerodynamics. If the latter

This could be caused by physics. Also, it could be caused by thousands and thousands of engineers working on aerodynamics, jet engine efficiency and of course economics all being totally stupid over those 25 years. By the way, I know someon

I'm quite deep into react, angular, angularJS on the frontend spectrum. Still my first reaction was: "JIT? CSS? Wth?" My reflecting alter ego of course tells me this is quite probably a great achievement. And I'll read i

I'd die right now for understanding the relationship between gravity and other forces. No joking.

I guess it's not black magic apple is doing right here. From my experience with big companies, Intel just got buried in its processes, approvals, middle-management etc.pp.; they still got the talent, and in the past years there wasn&#x

I'm not sure people who cannot afford a fast computer will be able to spend their money on a service like this. I'm quite probably overlooking something and I'd be curious to learn what.

Fair enough, thanks for your opinion. Still I think we should actively work against this line of thought. I find it hard to prove that the general idea of "slimming" democracy by using available data better isn't on the horiz

Sadly, any side, not just India and Goebbels, employs this tactic (admittedly to varying degrees). It is apparently to effective to ignore, even if its message is factually correct.
