In US and developed countries, it is about 5 - 8%, but in India, it is about 20%, so the transmission costs form a considerable portion of emissions.

It can. It has and it will. When the childs belly is empty, it is easier to fall to propaganda that sanctions have deprived them of food.

Using "productivity" in the same context as "nonfungible token start-up" is bold. It just goes on to show that there is a lot of excess money in SV, not to mention greed and arrogance.

Refreshing to see an old school forum format. Such nostalgia, and a better user experience than sites like Reddit.

Sorry, the two year lead that Flutter has, and still being close to React Native in terms of subscribers implies React Native was picked up quicker or is more popular. However, I do agree that RN has the momentum and familiarity of React as

The damper on LinkedIn as a social network in one sentence. People don't be their real selves on LinkedIn. And once you know the artificiality of every post on it, you being to hate it.

This is already happening. Advertisers create normal looking fake accounts, and subtly inject product placements into discussions. The best way to market a thing is to not make people realize they are being marketed with. I remember a few y

Agreed, but it doesn't have to. It is addictive as hell. I guess, if you own facebook, you track daily stats and percentages and convert them into insights like "how long are people on the site" or "how many ads to posts

I was alluding to the need of printing, as a concept, not necessarily the type of printer. Also, developing an open source laser printer is easier than an ink-jet one.

I have long awaited for the open source community to develop the core technology behind laser printing. I can build other parts of a printer, but the core laser drum and ink transfer capability is beyond my capabilities. I really wish there

DNA samples would have been taken from victim directly, for comparison. I guess samples and records also include location of sample collection (hair, skin, mouth, etc), time, date, circumstance, etc.

To me, that seems to give off the vibe that he was confident in the business, basically striking a golden goose. And wants to not interfere with it. It could also show apathy and lack of concern because he wants to cash out.

Wow. That presentation is like an autopsy level of scrutiny and criticism. Many of the quotes look like they were taken out of context. I am not sure, but perhaps a bit more context than just the quotes would be fair.

A smart IT administrator would put that down on paper, but not "unlimited space", just a large amount of space, per user, committed on paper. It's like decision makers don't understand business and human psychology. Firs

The thing about human psychology is that if you tell someone not to do something, especially something that is not outright harmful to themselves or others, they will yearn to do it. The answer to alcoholism is to de-glamorize it. Young i

The idea seems to be that endorsements are by people who are your colleagues, and, hopefully, ones who have seen you apply your skills. If pulled off correctly, its a powerful endorsement. However, how does one really check if the endorseme

The thing is that when the product/service is a mass market thing, most users are confused by choice that goes too deep. Most folks are happy with some amount of choice, that focuses on functionality, rather than looks. When my broth

True. Bit savings are significant only when volumes are large enough. Also, developing from ground up to target a serverless runtime, means you can reach market faster with python and other langs, but reduce cost by moving to Go or C over t

Yeah no. There is a limit to optimization, and that ends with optimized machine code. Go being a compiled language, that is cross paltform but separate binaries, should be very close to C in terms of performance. Languages like Python, Java
