In the last 100 years, the advance of science and technology has enabled us to make better use of those resources, making people wealthier. Population growth seems to be catching up with the advance now, leaving less resources per capita. O

Makes sense. More people fighting over the same finite amount of resources, leads to less per person. Eventually, no matter how imaginary money is, it's used to buy non-imaginary resources.

Ironic, the longer we put off that discussion, the more likely we actually end up with a genocide instead of some controlled solution.

There are cases where the Go compiler generates horrors, and the only workaround is to write your code in asm. Here's one example: // imagine a for-loop around this s := foo[i:i+4] s[3], s[2], s[1], s[0] = s[0], s[1], s[2], s

The only effective counter against a proper DDoS is to bring more bandwidth than your attacker has. A small site is unlikely to attract a proper DDoS, but will get hit by the usual misbehaving web scrapers, broken clients in a silly loop (I

I believe the idiomatic way to solve multiple writers would be to give each writer it's own channel, and multiplex the output of those to a single channel. The problem is, without generics you need to create a new multiplexer for every

The only discussion to be had about the article is: "Since when has comicbook superhero garbage counted as scifi?" "It still doesn't." End of conversation.

28/1 is a crazy DL/UL ratio. It's probably beyond the point where the narrowness of the uplink slows downloads. I wish the official broadband definitions included something about the uplink.

Is there a documented case of a war that didn't result in any torture and rape?

Participating a war means participating murder, torture and rape. If that's what it takes to be a man, I'll pass.

Only looking at the specs, it looks very similar to 5th-gen Core i7 U-series, with just significantly lower TDP. http://ark.intel.com/compare/85215,84672 If that's the case, no wonder it gets bogged down by therma

Bad legislation only sucks when you're at the wrong end of it. Also, pushing misuse of bad legislation "to the max" might be the fastest way to get it fixed.

From what I gather from the last paragraph of the story, they found out they were doing something they didn't really care about. If that was the case, then pivoting is the only right choice IMO. Sometimes you just have to try something

Pulseaudio still needs to be restarted every time an USB headset is plugged in, to get it to work as both input AND output card. EDIT: Other than that, it _does_ work quite well nowadays.

It's mostly a hypothesis, I'm quite sure I don't suffer from pathological lack of empathy, which would mean I'm unable to truly think like a psycopath. However, there are several things you could do that are legal that a

Having basic empathy (i.e. not being a psycopath) might be an obstacle in getting rich quick. A wider range of options is available if you don't have to care what your actions cause to others.

This guy is not seeing the big picture. Every time his readers access his non-HTTPS site, a man-in-the-middle attacker can insert malicious content into the connection.
