   It's a part of traditional medicine in Russia. As a personal anecdote, I didn't find it particularly effective on me, but it's good to see a proper study conducted. Anyway, the way to take honey is usually with hot tea. Drink

   nMigen is pretty cool and capable. I can only recommend these Youtube series, where nMigen is used to build a full 6800 CPU: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=85ZCTuekjGA&list=PLEeZWGE3Pw...

   Software engineering is a global market. Unions are local to the US. If unionizing becomes a thing, it will be a huge boost to developers in Eastern Europe, China, India, Mexico, but a big blow to the US. And it's not about offshoring

   (edit: wrong Epic the company; oh well) Software engineers in the "regular" industry indeed are better off without unions. There's no obvious problem that unions would solve, and there are costs (unions in general add ineffic

   in FHE you need to execute all branches, but the result could be just like you executed the right one. Consider the following conventional code: if (flag) { a = b + c } else { a = b * c } In FHE it could look: a = fl

   Specifically, in the context of assembly, as long as dimensions and locations of each connector stay the same, it does not really matter for the automated assembly line.

   Seconding Kvass. Note: I found that most of the varieties sold in the US are much sweeter than those in Eastern Europe. That's killing the taste of it.

   Thank you for giving the link. Never knew about Lake Chagan, and it was very interesting to dive into stories about it. Apparently, they intended to use such nuclear explosions across the whole country, but they learned quickly. What's

    If a dollar is for 1000 queries, a million queries costs $1000, not $10000.

    Manna is a very underrated story. And it's already happening to some degree: Uber/Lyft drivers don't have managers; they are being directed by a phone app.

    Another impressive startup in this area is nomagic.ai. From what I know, they are more advanced than covariant, had been in production for more than a year and recently raised a decent Seed round. Good luck to both teams!

    Thank you for sharing that! It's amazing that this tradition exists in Poland. Do Poles come to see family for New Year / Christmas? Oh, and by the way: Russia has state holidays from Jan 1st till Jan 10th (+/-, every year is

    I am a Russian living abroad. I know literally no one coming back to Russia for Easter. It's the first time I even heard of this idea. Summer or New Year are the times when Russians are more likely to go to visit their relatives and fr

    Google operated city-wide public WiFi in Mountain View for many years. So, it's not like they didn't have any experience. I would also like to point out that most cities have a utility electrical grid to power traffic lights and t

    I agree with the first half of the statement: we indeed do not have a cloud-first version control system. It could bring some real benefits of tight integration with continuous build and other things considered to be essentials nowadays. I

    I agree with some of your points; but zero-reliance on libc is the reason why it's so easy to use Go in containers; and Docker is one of the primary reasons why Go is popular. It's what they have got right.

    I agree with your point, but I also agree with the parent comment. Thinner != lighter. It's totally legit to have a not-so-thin laptop that gets lighter every year, but preserves the most important ports.
