That's not an insult! Bovine nipple squeezers know how to moove... They'll milk your pride, dump it into a bucket, and pasteurize your very soul.

Yeah! Only a, "distasteful mail pouch of ratty cuckoo dejecta" would use a 3rd party service to generate passphrases!

Randomly offensive passphrases aren't really a problem. There's only one person who's supposed to know it and if two or more know it then it's just temporary and up to the person who "owns" it to make a new on

The problem with your idealist view here is that an individual or even a big corporation can't compete with an entire country . Douyin (Chinese version of TikTok) was subsidized and promoted by the Chinese government. Even a rich Am

ReStructuredText (.rst, what Sphinx uses) handles it quite well. I understand why Markdown became so popular (super easy/intuitive) but what I don't understand is why so many documentation systems use it. It's quite limit

Technically you're supposed to use conduit that's made for the type of cable run that you're doing. Something that's certified for use in homes, that's fire-resistant and won't kill you with toxic gas when it

It was this one: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0CJNND118/ Super generic design. Probably the exact same circuit board/chips as a dozen other similar switches you can find on Amazon.

You assume this makes sense everywhere. I live in Florida. Air conditioning your attic is akin to burning money. Even filling an attic with loose insulation isn't really enough since there's just that much heat and humidity m

Two main reasons: 1) Future proofing (the main geek justification we all tell ourselves when considering fiber hehe): There's terabits of potential in even the cheapest fiber. "I'll never have to run cables again!" Th

I just spent a few hours in my attic running Cat 6 but before I did that I actually did some research to figure out what it would take to run fiber instead: Too much. Not way too much. Just "too much" compared to cheap cat 6

Blackberry really blew it (hard). They could've been more pervasive and successful than iPhones and Android but they never put in the effort to make their phones easier for developers to use. Everything was so obtuse and difficult an

Why do people always assume there's only two ways to deal with a monopoly? All you ever hear about in terms of dealing with monopolies are: 1) Break them up 2) Fine them From history we know that #1 is really friggin hard to get rig

At the very least it could be used to reduce the requirements and speed up the prompt recognition step(s) of image-based generative AI. "Stable Diffusion 3 XS" will use ternary? Here's to hoping :)

Yes, actually: That's the entire point of the paper! The concept is that the amount of information contained in a weight like 0.00006103515625 is equivalent to 0. -0.99951172 is equivalent to -1, 1.26406236 equivalent to 1, etc. Th

Modify your schedule, sure but do not rush it (just to beat the other folks). The first paper on any given topic may garner some 15 minutes of fame but the well-researched, boring paper is one oft-cited. Even if it isn't the first

They might not be planets but planet-sized, artificially-created cities/machinery/engineered objects. Think about it: If you were tasked with creating a planet-sized thing why would you give it anything less than a perfect orbit

You are so wrong it's unreal! Quality switches suitable for use in a vehicle don't cost $0.10, they cost $0.01! -at the volumes they'd be purchased for auto manufacturing.

Actually, Valve owns that space. They have 132 million active monthly users. For comparison, Xbox has 120 million. Seems like only a minor lead until you look at the revenue: Steam (Valve) brings in ~$8 billion in revenue whereas Xbox

It's a simple equation: Money spent on ads will go where the users (ears and eyeballs) are. By providing fine-grained targeting an advertising platform can extract more money from "the long end of the tail" which is where m
