Absolutely amazing. Just watched it live, gave me goosebumps. Although: "SpaceX also attempted a recovery of all three of the first stage boosters it used during the launch. It has recovered two of those thus far, and we’re waiting to

I always kinda curious about dna heritage testing. Until I saw John Sotos' talk at Def Con 25 [0]. He highly recommands you keep your genome private. And that you only give it away if it is vital (aka you're really sick). The talk

Very smart! This is a few line of code away from a css class based mini tracking framework... Aside from the obvious, this could also be used as a fallback (restricted) A/B testing for no js users ? I'm thinking data about just wh

I'd argue otherwise, but have no source to support my claims. Maybe someone can help. Here's my 2 cents: By being open source and allowing people to run it on their own servers, they can potentially convert a massive amount of peo
