In a way, a society is like a living organism. If it's not confronted with enough real problems and threats, its "immune system" finds something anyway and attacks the normal cells. If some people can't find anything suf

I wonder what was Seth Rich's job at DNC ? Technically, could he have leaked those emails ? How can we be sure Assange is dishonest when he implies Seth Rich was the source ? Is there solid proof that Rich was really the victim of a fa

I suspect the "super-recognizers" are a good cover for some new algorithm for face identification.. "trawling through an image database with more than 100,000 stills.." sounds quite incredible to me.

I don't know what model you use but mine is quite powerful (it's not a "portable/battery" model and it has 10 steps of jet intensity) and obviously it's best used in combination with the brush. If this does not

For me the water flossers (oral jet irrigators) are the best solution yet. I was never able to floss correctly with a wire, especially between the teeth in the back row but then my dentist told me about "the jet thing from amazon"

That's because you probably bought the phone from a re-seller who re-flashed a "custom global ROM" (compiled by who knows who) which does not receive OTA updates because it's not compatible with the official releases. Th

Actually no. Go compiler already has "stack promotion" (using "escape analysis"). TOC is in addition to that and I think it's intended to cover the cases not covered by "stack promotion" for example Functi

From what I understood, the "freezer method" could work only in case of mechanical problems caused by wear. For example physical wear of the various hard drive bearings could lead to miss alignment of the read/write head and

Anecdote here. I had an ~8 years old 500GB Western Digital hard disk which spent the last 3-4 years on a shelf and when I tried to reuse it, after 2-3 uneventful months, it started to "refuse" to spin up at boot time and, after se

What you say seems quite plausible and I wonder if this scheme wasn't used before against EU interests. US has the ability to spy basically any person in EU. That has serious implications.

Maybe I'm naive, but I think there are contingency plans for (almost) everything. Imagine for example there is a coup in KSA and "the bad guys" end up in power and they do crazy things with "our fuel".
