It kinda depends where it's deposited, right? The expected AMOC collapse is fundamentally about salt imbalance.

Fair. I am curious how many folks are able to get root access on their work machines across the software workforce. If you do, what sort of surveillance tech does your IT expect for you to have on there? Are you given special exemption comp

I did find this odd at first too, but then I realized something: it's a pain to maintain a device. Customizing it to the way you like it is not only a waste of time, it's tedious and never ends in an age where defaults are often a

I think this is only true for mobile devices? I'm curious how one would configure Linux to randomize MAC addresses by default.

While a popular refrain, this is not the only reason one might engage in avoidance. Furthermore, even if it is rooted in a pain, not everyone will be motivated optimally by thinking of it as something that must be analyzed and extracted. On

I'll contrast with sibling comments. You're correct to raise caution towards fishing Pacific salmon, even in catch and release. Release mortality from one study I've found is about 25-40% https://www.sciencedirect.

Brazenly requiring the abuse of a browser feature's intended use against the user. What an age. I'd like to hear from someone who worked on WebGL and how they feel about their ambitions being utterly subverted. Remember when the d

The pains I was thinking of largely occupy the transitionary period of a school closing before alternatives are open. When does the deficient school close? After this new school is opened? If not, what happens to students and families that

With sympathy to your appeal that 100% closures will force us to reckon with the problem, I suspect it'd only lead to missing the forest for the trees. This would come with substantial pains to the community. Potentially ones that knoc

The second sentence of TFA: "I learned to build Android applications in 2014. I was in college taking a Java programming class". So this person's twelve years out of college. You may want to train your fire elsewhere.

I explored migrating from NixOS to Guix, and I also hit the wall with the quirks of Guile Scheme. Architecturally, I find a Guix much clearer API than NixOS and aspire to the peace of mind that would come with a compiled system configuratio

That sawdust analogy is fantastic! We may be on the cusp of the AI age's new era of 'measure twice, cut once'.

I agree Manichaeism was persecuted, and not only for reasons I purport to be it hewing closer to reason. Fair play. Also a valid argument about the Reformation. Although, by that point Christianity (via the Catholic variant) was so dominant

Thank you for those links. Those are written in a way that it's very obvious what you'd be voting for. I must have been thinking of some other voting measure, unless my memory is (very possibly) faulty.

In hindsight, I think I was misremembering that a second referendum was debated beforehand. But the non-binding aspect of the first had me thinking it would lead to further definition before it was embarked upon. Was there elections held be

Critical thinking, by some boundaries of how you define it, was a threat to power that led to the many schisms the video demonstrates. Suppression of it I find to be endemic in monotheistic organized religions. As an outsider to Christianit

Maybe you can help illuminate something that confused me about the result of the referendum. I thought it was worded such that voting yes would lead to a committee determining the details, and that that would lead to a second referendum? It

If I recall correctly, the Brexit referendum wasn't binding either. When the result ended up the way it did, there was sufficient political capital to push it through without a follow up vote.

There seems to be a graphical issue that makes the text very hard to read. It may be Firefox or my Dark Reader addon.

What an odd collision. The way they remain in tandem after contact is uncanny, almost as though they were not under direct control.

My goodness thank you.

It's a confounding definition for me because of the inherent ambiguity, along the lines of a double negative. A disorder of ignoring, what does that tell us about what we attend to?

Are you substituting any caffeine? I've been cycling through month-long periods exclusive to coffee, yerba mate, and non-caffeinated herbals. Sometimes others. When I cycle back to coffee, I find myself reverting to a maladaptive redli

Ladybugs that stash in your house instead of in a log end up waking from winter dormancy earlier than their prey does. They inevitably starve and exhaust their calories. In an old house you can sometimes discover a nook somewhere and uncove

Would it be tenable to link caffeine as just asking your body (and heart) to work more, trading cancer for heart disease?

I will offer that you can resize/move/float in most tiling managers. Remembering your modifications is usually possible too. It's the default behavior that separates the experience.

I can't see a practical world where the OS doesn't need to take control of window positioning in certain situations. As a core example, there is full screen. Minimize is another, but that doesn't have a clean analogue in the

Even aside from the malevolence, Windows is rotten from the thirty-year old metaphor that it started with: windows themselves. The job of positioning and resizing applications is a confusing mix of responsibility between the user and the sy

That only holds true for the smallest tier of open source projects. Past a certain point of complexity, it's unlikely you can expect the robot to read your mind well enough to provide something of high quality and 'outstanding for
