You know what strikes me as a cheap way to run a bunch of bots to populate servers? Send users a wasm binary for running a bot and run several bots on a user's computer in the bg while they're playing themselves. Maybe check for r

Naively without thinking about it. Session Id, setInterval sending a ping every few seconds, clear the id if the ping fails to arrive. Smooth it by taking an average or sum over anywhere between a few minutes to a few days, depending on wha

I mean they switched to Rust because a comparison of two fully developed systems is fairer than a production system and one in testing. Besides, I believe the blog post said that they selected nodes at actual random?

Still not sure if we'll have web3. It kind of seems like a great way to suddenly make 50% of web infrastructure carry nothing but transaction data from node to node, and when you think about it with private data storage it makes laws l

Eh, Git works , which is all it has to do. The reason you see typical small dev teams use Git is because they're familiar enough with it from dealing with FOSS. And when you are doing FOSS, there's almost no contest – Git destroy

One thing I find particularly concerning in these plans is how people want to use them. Lots of people inevitably suggest under these posts that we just use DAC as counterbalance instead of reducing emissions. This is very much impossible a

The website addresses that in the first paragraph. You can, as they did, do it manually yourself. However, you're very likely to make unnoticeable mistakes due to it being a government tax form. Using a weekend to do something a comput

Nearly all of them, most likely. What motivation would there to do otherwise? It's just that the vast majority of these governments, the US included, have laws mandating access to nearly everything accessible. If that data is subpoenae

Well they do log surrounding network hardware which are broadcasting, so visible Bluetooth, devices on the same wifi, the APs themselves, etc. This allows a rough estimate of the locations of visible devices which are not made by Apple. The

A really nice illustration, but it's a bit unclear on a few things (especially stashes), and it can give off the impression that git commits not only track "changes" but in fact are changes instead of what they really are, th

I think the reading that you should have is, dump in in a treatment tank, cycle the water and scoop out the algae before the majority of the bloom decomposes, and you avoid hypoxic water post-treatment.

Algae blooms cause hypoxia by their decomposition at the bottoms of bodies of water. Through harvesting the algal biomass, no such decomposition can take place and a hypoxic environment is not created. In addition, algae produce oxygen, so
