Sure, but at the same time if a "biological contamination" were to happen elsewhere on earth there's no way the US would be able to protect itself alone from also being exposed. Source: Covid-19

That's the GPU which I would expect to be fairly idle on a cluster of any sort unless you're doing GPU computing (and then why are you using a Pi?)

It's interesting. I'm still in a state where I enjoy it most of the time and I could certainly spend an entire day coding... But I'm running super low on good ideas. Ideas used to pop into mind all the time, now it's lik

You are talking about fission, not fusion. Nuclear plants are using radioactive sources like uranium to generate energy. Fusion tech would use hydrogen and fuse it to helium.

What frustrates me most about Slack Video/Audio is that they bought and shut down Screenhero. Screenhero was an excellent tool I got to use for audio calls and screensharing about five years ago. It was clearly an acquihire but somehow

No, but people new to programming might enjoy a month of supported learning and get a gentle introduction to open source along the way. Let's not generalise in either direction. There are plenty of people who try to make meaningful con

Even if it's as rare as one in a billion we'd still have to map billions of suns, their planets and actually look for it. Other than SETI I don't know any really serious, concerted efforts to looks for other signals of life.

What signal are we expecting to be able to detect? AFAIK the radio signals we've been emitting are garbled beyond recognition and way too weak even a few light-years away from earth. After all, most of our communication is directed at

I think you're misunderstanding the feature (or maybe I am?). The way I understand it losing hearts prevents you from progressing too quickly. You can refill hearts by practicing content you've covered already and hence strengthen

"It has a half-life of 2.6 million years, which means it completely decays after 15 million years" That's not how half-life works and it makes me question a lot of other things in the article.

I have done research on Evolutionary Algorithm and numerical optimization. It was nigh impossible to reproduce poorly described algorithms from state of the art research at the time and researchers would very often not bother to reply to in

Looks like that as of 7.4 it supports multiple workers for concurrent request handling.

The title is misleading. It's not about the specific word "Huh" but about the fact that every language has a word that takes its function - namely to trigger a speaker to repeat their previous sentence.

I'd wager a guess and say that this was exacerbated by the fact that people had to move and live in cities far away from loved ones and away from places where they could spend time outside. The opportunity cost of "driving three h

I think there's a common misconception in your argument. Even without a full distribution network it might be a viable solution. Most of us use our cars for our daily commute, grocery shopping and other things within a fairly small rad

Would this also imply that even today new mass could be created? Similar to how Hawking Radiation assumes virtual matter/antimatter pairs getting created all the time would it be plausible for neutrinos and their antimatter counterpart
