Other than as very early stepping stones to some kind of extra-solar settlement on a less "fragile" planet, these things are no sort of solution for human futures. They are all far more fragile than earth and no settlement on mars

Without enough gravity, your atmosphere leaks away into space. This may have already happened to mars once.

I admit I was an avid MooTools user back in the day. I remember that users of that other js library often pointed out that MooTools' messing with prototypes was going to be a problem someday. They were right. Also, looking back on it

Doesn't seem to work for me. Perhaps because I'm behind a corporate proxy? Maybe I'll try when I get home.

Facebook could stand in the middle of 5th Avenue and hand out everyone's personal information to passers-by and it wouldn't lose any users.

I don't know how this article got on HN in the first place. It's clickbait garbage disguised as interesting science. OK, maybe we can make a hybrid... so? Why would we? At least part of the author's hopes seem to be to run ev

In Japan, we call him Shuwa-chan.

Exactly. Rather than "implicitly assuming" one thing, it quite explicitly states the opposite.

by okonomiyaki3000 9y ago
The article doesn't implicitly assume that at all. You seem to have missed the entire point.

Let me clarify. By "fear", I mean fear of losing their seats, not their heads. Clearly, they don't fear either but I'm only implying that government would work better if elected positions were easier to lose.

"We only have hours"? What are we supposed to do in those hours? Make phone calls that won't get through? Tweet? Forget it. Senators and congressmen don't fear their constituents so they're not going to listen to th

I have the same problem. I mainly use zsh because it's not drastically different from bash but still offers some useful things that bash lacks. But, honestly, we should just bite the bullet and move on to something better. Yes, we will

Well, it will recognize your hosts file if that matters to you.

Actually, there is something wrong with Postman. It didn't affect the Chrome version but the standalone has a serious bug where it just completely ignores your hosts file. There's been a Github issue for it for over a year but the

Postman is great and they've had a standalone app for a while. It should work well for you unless you make use of a 'hosts' file. That's right, the standalone Postman app will just ignore it. Oh, they know about the bug.

Gave up halfway through the second episode. Has so much changed since then? Did they fire the entire writing staff? Was MacFarlane visited by magical elves who bestowed upon him the ability to act just a little bit? Is there a new joke othe

What if monkeys fly out of my butt? Anything is possible. I'm saying it's not likely. It's not likely that any civilization will reach such a technological level. If one does, it's not likely that spreading around the ga

Let's say 200 billion (suitable) stars. Let's say 20% of them have planets around them. If our own system is in any way typical, we can say that about 2 of those planets can sustain life. Let's say life develops maybe 30% of

Why would any aliens have any intentions toward us? Why should they care at all? The only resources we have on earth that aren't more easily acquired in space are sitcoms and reality shows.

Nothing at all will come of this. There is practically zero chance of ever detecting a signal from the one or two other intelligent species that might be in our galaxy. But your comment sounds like you are concerned about broadcasting. The

Short of explicitly labeling each part (which would not be in spirit of 'lightweight markup'), it's hard to imagine any link/description markup that is completely foolproof. The advantage over markdown here is that you a
