Daily reminder that "well it works locally" is an entirely different animal than "it works at scale". Scale, especially efficient scale, is hard.

It's not supposed to be accessible to everyone. I think he says as much in one of the books. He's not interested in being liked or broadly read, so much as saying what he wants to say.

I'm pretty sure he discusses editors at some point and he doesn't really like them or have one. He takes the swipes, but he'll show up with a truckload of evidence supporting them if you push back.

If you can turn a blind eye to the absolute horror show that Whatsapp calls a UI you probably deserve whatever befalls you. Now I'll plug my friends company as an alternative for secure messaging (and because I like purple UIs) https:

It's more of a dialogue / part line but yeah. Now here's another one to bake your noodle: Ask your friends who aren't native speakers of their day-to-day language if their monologue is in their first tongue, or day-to-da

I don't think they could keep it up for that long without slipping up at least once. Enron started around the same time and got tripped up in 2001. If it were a one man investment shop, then maybe it leans more towards fraud. But if th

Not sure if it works for Wayland, but you can stream any arbitrary amount of pixels to through VLC when on X11. Slack, zoom, Hangouts all work too. So maybe the problem is discord.

I found it useful, if only for the idea. My wife has gotten very serious about optimizing the last hay penny out of our expenses, and I'd much rather build her our own receipt ingestion process than use a 3rd party who is reselling our

Shepards aren't retrievers. But they do like keeping track of things / people and keeping them "herded" and collected. Not a failure of teaching, the breed just isn't programmed for it.

It does, but skidding off the road destroys them too. And throwing sand down really doesn't do much. Across the lake in Wisconsin we reuse the leftover brine from the cheese industry. Its more effective and more effective per unit used

Casinos have been doing this for a long time. You've also got a GPS becon in your pocket, and are probably paying with a card attached to your name and government ID number. So unless you're paying in cash and not carrying a phone

OP thinks only luddites use cash. PS OP, in the 1700s you'd probably issue a writ of payment and the shopkeeper would add the purchase to your tab, which you'd pay off in full at a later date. Unless you were a total stranger to t

There's nothing to discuss. It's a non-story. "Jewelery store employs lots of people with guns to keep it's stock safe." Unless you want to discuss how guns do/don't actually make things safer.

Right. The engineer assumes immediate, uniform, consistent heat in the elements. But it's pretty true to life. Ovens and toasters get a bit wonky as they get old.

The US wanting to shut the pipeline is pretty textbook "not incentived to keep it open" but people read what they want to read. And yes, a unified Europe makes it like the American federation. Perfectly capable of infighting, but
