> Turning gas off is a nuclear option for Kremlin The Kremlin is as dependent on that $$$ as Germany is on gas, perhaps even more so. They won't dream of screwing their largest client, and one of the most important trading partners.

What's particularly irritating is we've been through a milder variant of all this already with 9/11 and Patriot Act, and yet it seems people have learned little to nothing at all. A cockatoo has a longer attention span than t

Psst, folks. It's not just Canada that's doing this. Just sayin'. A lot of unsavory, freedom damaging shit is currently being enacted in the US under the same pretenses and distractions, too.

Which is why it's especially troublesome when we see _kids specifically_ being targeted with dopamine-addictive services like this. Get 'em when they're young and stupid, and they'll be your recurring revenue for the res

You are already signed up for US surveillance if you live in the US, and have no choice in the matter. You have a phone, right? Then they know all they need to know about you - your location, contacts, emails, bank accounts, vices and procl

Anyone who willfully signs up for foreign surveillance is simply dumb. There's no other way to put it. That applies (to a lesser extent, but applies all the same) to folks from other countries that sign up for the likes of Instagram, F

Serious question: was Assange's life expectancy longer before the event or after? And if the answer is "before", why is this "weird stuff"?

Trivially deployed using Docker compose as well. I've been using this for quite some time. iPad app works great too.

In plain old data science? Sure. In deep learning? Nope. Gotta be distributed unless you want to wait until the Sun burns out.

Increasingly data scientists need to know a thing or two about underlying tech. Otherwise you're limiting yourself to stuff that can be built on a single machine, and that doesn't get you very far. That said, with that list of qua

Why "wire" it at all? Within a few years we will have not one, but _two_ satellite Internet companies able to deliver copious bandwidth anywhere on the globe, for less than $100/mo.

Right now you're much more likely to _not_ find luck. Look up Evergrande. But hey, it's your money, feel free to give all of it to me, via my short positions.

Having been through this meat grinder, people do please run the numbers on that "equity" you're getting. Founders make it sound like 0.1% is a windfall, but it most certainly isn't, even in the unlikely event the startup

Mainstream news is just naked propaganda, so I'd also like an option to pay them nothing, in the unlikely event such a subscription is actually available. They aren't doing it for money anyway, and whoever is paying for what they

That's what I already do, but the fact that publishers get zero from this is not lost on me.

Apple, do please kneecap Google's advertising as well. In fact, eradicate unwanted advertising entirely and do what you did with Music - sell a subscription so I could browse the web without this bullshit, yet site owners would also ge

Back when I had wrist pain the only thing that worked for me was mousing with a different hand, and using a split Goldtouch keyboard (not a fan of the key feel, but ergonomically it worked well for me). Then I got into weightlifting and I d

It's tough being an AWS fan for that matter too. Aside from the simplest things, every time you need to do something there are huge reams of "documentation" in various stages of decay, and each doc is comprised of dozens of (

People at FDA are working real hard for their post-FDA do-nothing six figure paychecks and board seats. It's great to see, however, that not everyone is just cynically milking the system like that.

I think the real situation here is that people are becoming more aware of the profound lack of freedom that already existed. Much like we've become aware that our "free press", for example, is just a propaganda bullhorn to se

I hate to break it to people, but children _are_ participants in a consumerist, capitalist system. And it is, as the saying goes, the worst system, with the exception of all others. The better adapted they are to this system by the time t
