Hardware isn't much better actually. There isn't a good way I can show you this, but every x64 CPU contains an entire ARM CPU whose job is to initialize the x64 CPU. And of course it runs two operating systems - TrustZone and Mini

I wasn't saying China has those freedoms, just that China has at least as much of them as the US. Just today - or was it yesterday - an ICE agent peered into a woman's driver side window and shot her three times point blank. Becau

Between the USA and China, definitely China. Seems pretty simple. They have much higher standards of living and while it's very bad you can't say Tiananmen Square, that doesn't overrule food and shelter. They have all the job

I'm not sure where the site is hosted but the person who writes the site seems to be Canadian, and if you meant the document, of course the Snowden documents are American documents.

Funny to see even the NSA makes the mistake of calling a network an ASN (maybe because it's their name backwards), which is like saying I deposited money in my IBAN, or my neighbour lives in the string "123 Main Street", or H

My point is that the rent vs own model is taking over every industry and it's never good long-term. If you had to watch the same movie every day, and you knew that fact in advance, and your only option was pay-per-view, wouldn't t

I keep subconsciously dismissing TinyTapeout because the time horizon is so long and I don't have a cool project idea that requires an ASIC, but it's probably a really good idea to do uncool things that don't require ASICs, t

is it normal, in the USA, for half of all people to only eat beef once every 8 days? They also found a demographic correlation, which isn't easily explained by random sampling.

if you allow each person to have 1-2 investment homes then you have the exact same problem but now it's decentralised and more people (more voters) benefit from the problem continuing to worsen

Everything is open source if you're skilled with Ghidra. We call AI models "open source" if you can download the binary and not the source. Why not programs?

If that's your goal, you probably shouldn't call the class bg-blue? It should be bg-blue-but-purple-on-mobile. But then it's definitely so specific it's the wrong way to select a style. If you want the page background to

That has not very much to do with money though. There are many ways to allocate scarce resources, such as rationing. Even if money is used, the mere fact of scarcity doesn't define the price of something. Silver is also finite, but it
