Rock is so well known as a thermal insulator that we build buildings from it (brick, concrete, stone blocks). I don't think it's going to help much with your heat transfer problem.

Just heat up all that super cooled ice first

Just ship all that heavy coolant up there first

It’s funny, the same folks who complain about seeing political stuff constantly are the same ones saying that in every political thread. Almost like they aren’t being honest, just flagging stuff because they’re neoreactionaries trying to ma

China probably can’t get the USA to extradite an American citizen for breaking a Chinese law. The UK can.

I just came in here thinking hole flow was weird but wow, I need to learn some things!

My favorite thing about electrical theory is that all this business about flow of energy going from + to - is the idea of "electron holes" flowing, instead of the actual electrons! Basically all of electronics and electricity uses

OpenXR is basically the standard for VR these days, not some "dork dream of openness". Also, I don't get why you're being a hater, there is no point to your comments other than to shit all over my initial comment for zer

No, this is the type of thing that MAGA folks have been fed on their media and social media feeds. They’ve been taught that everything complex in government and in politics and in geopolitics are deep state conspiracies and lies in order fo

I guess I didn’t work for my health insurance since it’s a benefit then? What kind of nonsense are you talking about, “they didn’t work for their pension”? Clearly I’m misunderstanding what you’re saying because that would be stupid as fuck

That’s a dumb argument, this is a headset that they could have done anything with including adding OpenXR VR support, not a random nonsensical idea you had about a star that is not like our own.

I didn’t buy one, I said I could have been excited.

I might have been excited about the Apple Vision Pro if I could, in addition to the features it has now, hook it to a PC and use it as a standard VR headset. Imagine that you could use the onboard processing to enhance what's coming fr

There is also a button that says "hide" on every posting, so you folks could use that. Personally, I want to be able to talk about and read about what HN users think of the current situation in the USA, as it affects my family and

Now financial instruments like pensions are stealing? In what way? Those workers worked for that pension. It’s funny how the top wealth owners have vacuumed up more and more wealth and you’re mad at the regular Joe working a 9-5.

by ok_dad 2y ago
Are you mad at the pensioners, who worked for decades on the agreement they’d get a pension, or are you mad at the oligarchs and businesses who lobbied to make pensions a thing of the past so that you’re not protected as well? You should be

Well yea, they teach you in officer’s schools that disobeying an illegal order probably won’t turn out well for you immediately, but it’s your duty. You will get punished sometimes, but if the order goes against the law and your morals, the

I love how ten years ago it was folks complaining about juniors using Google to code, this articles first suggestion was juniors need to Google more. Twenty years ago it was that Python was not as good as learning C or something. Thirty, it

Then don't use words you don't understand fully? Seems stupid to me to use a whole culture as your "aesthetic".

Why not use deck screws designed to self drill? They work fine for boards you’d use on a deck. This driver/drill bit is strictly worse than the alternatives. Most homeowners doing any building other than drilling a few holes for photo

We’re still using COBOL mainframes in 2025 in places so I’m sure whatever is the next trend in computing will be great, but I’m sure we’ll still be using k8s (and COBOL) in 2125.

Don't make another trendy AI-based dating service, people are sick of those. They only use them because they are forced to do so. First, figure out how to create a safe dating web site, ensure personal data security and don't coll

I suppose the best way to host the actual firehouse rather than Jetstream would be to get a cheap bare metal or VPS with unlimited bandwidth? I’m going to go try it for a month, if anyone has any good suggestions for tutorials like this one

Yea sounds dumb like that I agree.

So I get your argument, but by that logic the only bad laws that get repealed will be those that affect big business, and the laws against individuals without resources will still be in place. I think we all agree that it’s unfair there’s a

I agree with you and will die to defend that position, but what existential reasons do we have to behave well? In reality, it seems like humans are just a bunch of animals, and the only important thing is survival. My wife, just today, told

Do we need to always have big-budget films and productions? Perhaps we should live smaller, and enjoy local art and low-budget films. Do I really care that Jurassic Park was made? I could read the book and it's more detailed and imagin
