But what prevents anyone from developing an OpenCUDA? It's been almost 25 years ago, but this was the crux of the Sun Microsystems v. Microsoft lawsuit. It's why OpenJDK exists. Even three years ago the Supreme Court ruled that yo

Pssst. The Earth moves. It’s not always on the same side of the sun.

We could just build giant bomb shelters. It’s cheaper, holds more people, and doesn’t require nearly the investment in a completely closed ecosystem. But that ain’t sexy. If you want something that uniquely requires leaving the planet for s

Worth the investment of an extraplanetary colony? Because that’s the investment we’re talking about.

Nothing like moving the goal posts, conflating a whole bunch of different issues, and then projecting statements on to me when you’re called out nonsense. Hope that works out for you.

Where do you get these ideas? Yes, Filipinos did vote for a territorial government as laid out in the Philippine Organic Act of 1902. Yes, Puerto Ricans vote. It's a territory. They have their own devolved government.

Bro. Don't literally admit to engaging in ad hominem attacks, and then get all pissy and try to gaslight and then condemn calling out your behavior as an illegitimate ad hominem attack. We can read the the entire thread. Take your L

This is the lamest of all excuses. It's a very unlikely for one, we haven't had an extinction asteroid in 65 million years. Detection and mapping is very good today, and they're relatively simple to deflect given even with cu

A gleaming metropolis of glass and steel is fashion though.

by jonathankoren 2y ago
You could easily chalk that up to fashion. Glass and steel wireframe polygons are all the rage in the rich countries. Why would a poor country want to look poor? Also, if it's comparably cheap and fast in the rich countries, it's

This is an absurdly credulous take. If we took this face value, then we'd have assume that Carl Sagan really did keep an invisible flying dragon his garage.[0] This position is the exact opposite of rational thought. Say it with me, &q

Weird. As an anecdote my "Daily Mix 1" has 50 songs, and only two bands I didn't recognize. 62% of the songs are by artists with more than one song in the list. The most songs by an artist? 7 songs over 3 albums. Of the 50 so

That’s odd. I was just talking about how Spotify falls into the same cul du sacs that all similarity based recommendations fall in. Like it might show you some decent stuff for a few days if you give it a hard kick by finding something outs

This is a bad article, primarily because multiple people, myself included, have no idea what this person is talking about. I thought he was talking about Twitter. Someone else suggested X11, and a third group says he’s talking in the abstra

Douglas Rushkoff talked about how the bunker billionaires specifically asked about hot to maintain compliance by their “security forces” and asked him about how to withhold food rations. Putting aside the fact that there are always lackeys

I mean, if you weren't smugly comfortable in your biases, you could always just do a search, say for "FBI crime rate by year", or "police clearance rates by year", or "police funding per year", but I guess

Let's also not forget that cops also pointedly refuse to their do their job when their feelings are hurt when people complain that they don't clean up the corruption and abuse in their ranks. See: Chelsea Boudin and the SFPD. See

I'm sure your anecdotal experience is true for you, but funding is not linked to clearance rates. Counter to copaganda, police are worse at solving cases compared to 30 years ago, even as crime rates have fallen dramatically and fundin

The parallels with “European plate armor was too bulky to be used and knights couldn’t stand up when they fell”, shouldn’t be lost on anyone. It’s a common belief handed down over the years, but it’s complete bollocks. We know it is, becaus

I honestly don’t think they think about a nonchromium browser, and if they do think of it, they reject it for unfounded reasons. If they did use a nonchromium browser, Firefox would have a larger market share.

by jonathankoren 2y ago
Firefox has 2.9%. Safari has 18.12%. Everything else is Chrome or reskinned Chrome, with Chrome itself being 65.3%. Unless you’re running that 20%, Google controls it, and they basically write the standards anymore.
