I thought the same myself although I am a bit suspicious he made up this reason in hindsight. Whatever the truth is, the result is better than Berners-Lee's idea, I think.

What do the both of you think of the WWOOF [1] orgs? It seems like this is one of the better directories, if specifically just for organic farms. I'm really new to this, though. 1: http://wwoofusa.org

To add to this, folks like this family claim (or were when that video[1] was done) to harvest 6,000 lbs of food a year from a 1/10th of an acre and still have enough left over to sell to local chefs to the tune of about $20,000. The mo

I still have a directory tree around from doing those lessons. Given how picky python is about indent spacing, I agreed somewhat with the philosophy behind those lessons, particular for people new to coding.

I'm glad you've pointed this out. Comparisons to GDR and the Stasi often get ridiculed for being excessive and hyperbolic when in fact what's currently implemented would've been the Stasi's dream. If anyone needs a

Did not know VxWorks is so prominent in space programs. I'm used to seeing it when trying to talk to backend storage arrays and the like.

No, I've had similar experiences. I check the "two or more races" category where applicable.

I think this is a controversial reality that often gets silenced. Even between different cultures and castes from the Indian subcontinent there appear to be clear and discriminate striations[1] that few people in my experience talk about. I

Later humans in Japan did using onsen, which is basically the same thing IIRC: http://www.bbc.com/travel/story/20200824-the-japanese-villag... Definitely plausible.

No worries and I totally agree with you. Snowden had no other choice after the examples of whistleblower after whistleblower after whistleblower tried to follow the rules in place for disclosing the kind of abuse he observed and instead end

So true about not coding for performance "because the disks are slow". Almost all disk i/o, especially big-iron, has cache in front of it. Maybe in the case of cloud storage - what does I/O bound mean then? It should sti

As much as I agree with Snowden, the USA government will never forgive the betrayal. Snowden acted for the people, not the government, reflecting the reality that the government by and large works for itself rather than the people. I'm

Sorry about the weak attempt at Trekkie humor. I happen to think highly of Iceland! Particularly their punishing of bankers back in 2008. I thought about citizenship solely because of that.
