The point of these questions isn't the content of the questions themselves, it's the increasing level of intimacy. Just like kissing isn't about the utility of putting your tongue in someone else's mouth. I probably don

Deployed service members often (usually?) can’t connect to the internet using their personal devices. They use public government computers connected to govt networks.

Furthermore, getting new software approved at a big corp can already be a hassle. But at all the places I've worked, seeking approvals for and opening up a funding line to pay for a license increases the hassle 10x.

Actually you lose most of your mass through carbon dioxide, through breathing. (And similarly, trees and plants get almost all their mass through carbon dioxide, not the soil.)

I think this type of generative stuff opens up entirely new possibilities. For the longest time I've wanted to host a rowing or treadmill competition, where contestants submit a music track. The tracks are mashed up with weighting base

For me it was the excessively minimal defaults. I also forget the exact issues, but I remember Alacrity felt usable even before editing the conf file; Kitty didn't.

No, investments generate income. Buying a house and renting it out is an investment. The value of the house doesn't fall because it's generating rent. Buying a house with the intention of reselling it a year later is speculation.

Buying more expensive manufacturing equipment for your factory is an investment, even if the value of that machine falls after you buy it. Investments generate an ROI, like the parent gave examples of (rent, dividends, the production of goo

The point is, the federal government does not have a delineated power to regulate firearms or silencers. When they outlaw them, they say they're regulating "interstate commerce", which is a power they are granted. If you ma

I don't think the lack of LAN support is really that big of a deal - you can still go to a friend's house and play together in a private game while using game servers. In fact, I'm doing that today - bringing my laptop and pl

Like others have said, your comment here is very interesting and makes me want to learn more, but your (pleasantly minimal) homepage has no more information. Amplenote has a unique "idea/concept" they're designing for, a
