Guns are easy to make if you have the right tools. There will always be someone making and selling; even if it is the local store down the road. This will change nothing. Arms sales are a big market. I think what happened here is that Remin

I just picked up a '64 SKS. Fires like it just left the factory. Unless I get a squib, my AR-15 will last for years. And if something breaks I can replace the part. I have no reason to get another AR unless I want a different caliber o

I think it would be amazing if there were also able to stick a GB or two of HBM onto the same chip as kind of a L4 cache / VRAM for the GPU. Performance would be amazing, especially considering that Zen's performance gets better w

I'm still in the progress of setting up my product, but my day job does mysql replication. The issues come from when there is a good 5 minutes of 80% packet loss. It's caused some major issues. I'll keep that in BBR congestio

1. In my research, raft followers would still be thinking for themselves. Each node could potentially become master, which would be fine in most cases, but I just want a dum stupid slave database to pull a read only copy. My concern is late

My problem with CockroachDB comes down to two major issues: 1. I need a read slave. With MariaDB Galera, I can slave a database of a local master, but Cockroach AFAIK can only do master master. Adding another node to a cluster that will jus

Well, don't discount institutional sexism. I think that general attitudes and approach is a major factor, but not the only factor.

And I think you hit the dirty secret that people who use the 77% number tend to ignore. There are fundamental differences in the kinds of work and the general approach to work that males and females take. Nothing wrong with that, but to ign

Males, on average, pay more for insurance than their female counterparts before even factoring in everything else[1]. It doesn't close the pay game, but does skew the income after expenses. I'd assume if you run the numbers, femal

I'm still impressed beyond words that they were able to glue basically 2 reused rockets onto a 3rd rocket and then not only have a successful test flight but return 2 of the 3 boosters.

That "F" stock I have? My parent's Pharmaceuticals company. I can give you a bit of insight into why the cost is so high. 1. Because they can. Other countries don't pay as much, so they can get away with increasing their

It's a libertarian free-market experiment. I think the fundamental problem of crypto is that it is finite and quickly centralizes. Which, is the exact opposite of what the initial goal was. Bitcoin Lightning further centralizes the eco

Because 500% gains look better than 10%, until you factor in the risk. Coinbase and Robinhood make it easy for people to get into the crypto game without understanding the risks. They see the big returns, and think the train won't stop

Miners are buying directly from the factory floor (for both GPUs and PSUs) or from a retailer the minute a shipment comes in. Fry's told me they have a list of people they call the minute a shipment comes in due to the demand. I'm

With ample air flow, you should be fine. Running a card at constant temperature (which is what mining would do), is better than ramping it up and down. You'd probably make closer to £70 with your CPU thrown in, but it's all a gamb

$300 at MSRP will get you a lot, but with inflated prices an virtually no supply on the market; it sucks.

From what I understand, The US has a special view on immigration due to historically lax enforcement, varying history of enforcement, and general diversity of our population. It's hard to compare to other countries.

I could have used better description for the example. But as a tech company, I do think there are merits to discussing how a modified H1B Visa policy affects us.

I think the simple line that could be drawn is the separate politics and policies. I think[0] it could be fine to discuses a heavy handed immigration policy while not discussing the politician behind it. One has a chance to yield a good dis

I brought up the same point in a previous post. There is a line somewhere, and it seems that Google has blown past it miles ago. Is it a lack of HR resources? HR indifference? Failure to define policies? I'm not sure which is worse, th

No. Most banks can see the difference between an ACH and direct deposit. M&T doesn't, but Chase does for example.

Stop n Shop in the NYC Tri-State area has this, but they are the only store that I've seen that does. I'd assume it has a technical barrier to implementation, and large-ish up front cost.

ZMQ uses ZMTP which is a TCP protocol, and for example, HAProxy supports TCP just as much as TCP/HTTP.

Why use HTTP for transport instead of Messagepack or ZMQ? Seems a bit overkill if you are whipping binary data back and forth between services. Protobuf + ZMQ seems a lot more efficient to me.

I keep my number off my resume unless I am personally giving someone it (via email or in person). But, it depends on the circumstance.
