> I mean, cold itself (within Earthly limits) doesn't put out fires This is not a meaningful phrase when cold is the absence of heat. You need to describe the motion of the cold air against the warmer system to get a meaningful phra

With modern fabs, how much of the operating cost is labor?

Narrative is how most people communicate. This is hardly a bad thing. This idea that a medium can do anything but communicate narrative is ridiculous. Anyway, I wouldn't trust anything purporting to communicate the unadulterated Truth

In this case it seems directly proportional to the cost of energy, barring a solution where you use passive ways (like mirrors) to redirect light into the building.

I'm a little suprised they didn't mention DOOM or Spacemacs.

I'd guess the barrier is personal wealth for most people. That's certainly what I blame my lack of landing on the moon thus far on. As for being excited about paying for someone else living on the moon rather than more immediate s

Surely this depends on the contents of the information. I refuse to carte blanche trust a government to decide secrecy when every indication is that this is used to mislead citizens. This emphatically is true for both governments in questio

It does not help with time sync at all; you can't detect a collapse, just trigger it.

This doesn't account for vendor incompetence at basic customer support, which is far and away the largest reason to avoid renting commodity services. Being able to debug and fix things on demand without waiting on another party is mass

A better way to look at it is that a key is agreed upon, but not known, when the particles are entangled. When it collapses, you can read the key. The information, the key itself, still travels bounded by light speed from the point of entan

The only benefit that quantum entanglement provides is the agreement of a key over a distance. Communication itself would be "normal", i.e. EM.

Yup, and this doesn't even include all the disappearances that never get called homicides. You're disincentivized against calling a case a homicide if you can't bring a case—your clearance rate will drop. It also doesn't

DDG is fine for many types of queries. It also doesn't have many of (what I consider) the drawbacks of google's search: hostile ad positioning, AMP, autoscraped meta crap. Pretending you can't compare them is ridiculous.

RSS failed when it became another siphon to pull you onto their site to view ads. (I.e. only putting "above the fold" in the rss feed). Exporting your content nicely structured actively works against the business models of ad-supp

You might describe the product directly for those who don't know what netlify is (seems like some kind of combination of a static file server and rsync aimed at enterprise). It makes me a little concerned that there are so many feature
