What is Roam's financing/business model? So far the beta seems free but investing much time in a tool which then might significantly change is a risk...?

See the response by the developer and the actual page linked. It seems op didn't actually read the link he posted and the critique was fully incorrect.

I'm a big fan of this free android app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lslk.sleep... Among other features it records noises, cuts out all the no-noise moments and you have a 3-5 minute reco

Many people have internet, but only on phones. So you could ask them to use the phone or tether a loaned laptop, but this will raise costs and other equity issues.

Sorry, I don't want to be too negative but I find your sentiment very naive and self-centred. If you're well off now you'll be fine. If you're decently off in a wealthy country you'll be fine too. If you're one

Sadly pdf is not a useful format to put in readers. Not sure whether they cover the exact same ground but these have more file variety: Gutenberg http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/author/1308 Standard ebooks https:

It's $€2 per month difference. You still get part of the benefits, such as access for more devices. While I'd appreciate getting those €2 honestly I find it pretty small minded if that's your first concern. They were asked t

I don't understand this donation effort. It's not the US that needs help, it's Peru or Niger or Tajikistan, countries that lack resources and funds and don't have own production. Few will die in the US, far more in Rwand

Corporations that built all the weak systems should take some responsibility and cough up the cash. Cisco devices are among those, as are most major manufacturers. This really doesn't need to be an America-typical "but if no one s

Hotels do so but whether this specific hotel is guilty is another question.

Wow I hope he has to reveal his assets. He must own various cryptocurrencies, possibly influencing his decisions in his new role. Very unusual move.

It's not the that ruined them, but we see another classic transfer from the state (=people) to the wealthy. The correct thing would be to nationalise them if they go bankrupt, not to bail out the investors that earned money with the ex

There are countries, like most in the EU, or Canada, or NZ, or JP or South Korea who have their own self-interest but still contribute to the greater cause and global concerns. And there are countries like China and in recent years the US w

Indeed, obviously China has not stemmed covid. We'll see it come back bigger & more widespread with finger pointing to foreigners.

It's not a black swan, a pandemic was long on the horizon (think SATS, MERS, Ebola, ...). Just to add: I found taleb pretty opionated and had trouble distinguishing his own opinions from facts/theories.. I'd not recommend his

Indeed in other places I've read a cost of $ 200 for a single test. But maybe what's not included here is the labour and machine running time that has to also still be done.

I don't understand why this is spun up as such a big story. Yes it's funny somehow and sex sells, but honestly it's not adding any real value (as enough porn is anyway free). This is purely a marketing stunt and I'm disa

Some osm apps have good navigation, but they don't have the same data, e.g. on traffic. 'Here' isn't bad. And in doubt there's always Google maps by browser.

Seems to depend on the state in the US whether that is possible or not... And in the rest of the developed world this obviously just isn't possible at all.

Just in case this is not known, human generic code is more than just DNA. Most important parts of what encodes us are: - DNA - epigenetic markers on the DNA which modulate which parts of the DNA are active. You influence these and pass them
