Given the amount of time that has passed, the big email companies have had many years to jointly update the RFC according to their experienced reality. They haven't done so and the way you describe how they effectively work together to

No idea why you're getting downvoted. That's exactly how it played out. Though the "mass of people" rapidly lost their naivete.

Thanks for the correction. Last time I looked at it was in 2nd year Thermodynamics in 1985.

Because 10K satellites have a FAR greater combined surface area than a single space-borne DC would. Stefan-Boltzman law: ability to radiate heat increase to the 4th power of surface area.

Two things: 1. I vaguely recall that in the early days of Windows, the TOS explicitly told users they were not to use it for certain use-cases and the wording was something like "we don't warranty windows to be good for anything,

Good for him! The time for negotiation is before the war, not after you've been utterly destroyed. For him to give in to the slave-owning south having won a civil war at such high cost, would have been snatching defeat from the jaws of

GDP per capita is irrelevant to the benefits of being the world's reserve currency. You could search for it yourself but I'll do you a favour. Having the US$ be the world's reserve currency means the US government can borrow

You're thinking too narrowly. It's not just about mutual trade. It's the fact that US companies have firmly planted the flag almost everywhere on earth - a feat only possible through the Pax Americana. If you want to see what

The kind of far-sighted deal in which the US gets effective use of its allies territories to project military force far beyond its border, in order to contain its superpower rivals, the Russian Federation and China. This is done primarily t

Thank you for taking the time to write this. I feel for you and understand (though disagree with) the nihilism of your friends. As an outsider, it saddens me to bear witness to the beginning of the sunset of the American epoch. What a bold,

Who said they’re contributing to the problem? Perhaps you are by constantly downplaying what sounds like wilful ignorance on the part of your friend? Some people’s ignorance does not deserve the same respect as others’ reasoning. Your frie

> What you see now would happen regardless of who the public voted for. No. If Biden had attempted even a tenth (or Obama a hundredth) of what Trump has done, he’d be facing Nixon-level approbation and possibly real jail time.

Except that increasingly, pro-US is looking a lot less like pro-stability. People forget that nationalism doesn’t have to have a right-wing flavour.

A year ago, I would have said that a civil war in the US was a preposterous proposition. Well, it looks like the far-right/white-nationalist accelerationists in the administration have finally found the vehicle (pardon the pun) for ach

Given the current US administration’s predilection against immigrants it wouldn’t surprise me if at some point the sycophancy becomes endemic in academia as well, resulting in a modern equivalent of “Deutsche Physik”. The trickle of academi

The corollary to this law is that if someone publishes a paper saying a thing is bad, there will be a flippant, dismissive response ignoring the content and context, and using attacks on credibility to dismiss the findings. Given that we kn

The top marginal tax rate in 2024 (assessed 2025) was 50%. But that's not the total tax take - that's the marginal rate of tax for income above 48320 euro. You can see the Belgian tax scale here: https://fin.belgium.be&

Hi Chris. I don't suppose you've open-sourced the content-writing tool by any chance?
