Unfortunately in my situation it was all "this will be over soon". I never expected more than few months of this. If I assumed this from the start I'd probably have a business growing by now.

Science is based on these kind of assumptions. "Assume nothing." It's a game of stepping stones. It does however say a lot about the state of today's science - that is - how far we've come. We haven't come very

A 3D model is just a mesh of points in 3D space. These here provide only a shaded single color render to... illustrate this mesh. It can be rendered with any modern technique when used in conjunction with a rendering engine.

The problem with using cache is that you can feel certain it's correct but you don't really know until you check with the source. And since you check with the source anyway, the cache becomes a drag to correctness

This does happen in practice. Usually it is remedied by submitting an issue or a PR to your dependency upstream and getting them to fix it. If you're really impatient you can implement the trait yourself (with some hacking involved): w

Natural flowing water (in streams, rivers) contains ions of calcium, magnesium, sulfur, sodium, chlorine, potassium and fluor, with chlorine content around 10mg/l. Tap water without chlorine treatment would be devoid of most of those a

It's a limited resource and we have alternatives. Just that. Just think how tough it will be to build solar farms and wind farms once the energy we can dig up runs out.

Alcohol is a depressant - it gradually wanes your higher cognitive skills over the course of hours. Very convenient when one's thoughts are racing. I believe there's no causation in "drinking once" -> "drinking m

Correction: Dollars only serve the Chinese government as a way to put pressure on the competition, and means to buy microelectronics

The bad process began before we even conceived a notion of a global climate, and continues only because we're used to it. But continuing it still will change the global environment forever

While I understand that most users here are American, this process of "shrinkflation" happens everywhere else to some degree. Tricks of the sales trade are spreading like wildfire these days.

And if done over long enough periods of time nobody significant might notice for years. Just smear the whole process over the span of a decade or multiple.

Every scam in the world can be avoided if the customer pays enough attention. One can always say - pay more attention and you won't get scammed. This doesn't make the practice any less scummy.
