This, in my opinion, is the largest role of government in a capitalist society. Capitalism is not sustainable without guard rails. By design, a company will always pass costs onto society if it can. The government has an obligation to ensur

Given the immense barriers to setting up an exit node, I would find it rather surprising if the majority of exit nodes are not already controlled by state actors, either directly or by proxy. My personal opinion is that if anonymity on Tor

Per Wikipedia: there are 7.3 deaths per 1 billion km driven in the USA. About 7 million J&J doses have been delivered. One person has died as a result of blood clots thought to be related to the vaccine. If we assume an average of 32km

Which goes to the point that redux is not perfect and has its own downsides. I generally take the simplest solution to solving a problem and favor readability over abstraction whenever possible.

I think it's easy to get into a mess as an applications complexity increases regardless of which state management approach one chooses. Every paradigm has a trade off.

The biggest thing missing from discord right now is the ability to upload videos. I understand you can pay to upgrade to be able to do this, but my friends and I switched to discord from hangouts, and not being able to upload funny videos i

USO blew up. The held 25% of all the negatively priced contracts at close. The crux of this story is that investors piling into these ETFs created a massive sell side pressure at the close which this hedge fund found a way to arbitrage.

I use doordash, but I also pay a very hefty few to them on each order. Usually about 13 percent it looks like.

Paywalled so I couldn't read the article. But, I am surprised that they cannot turn a profit. I generally pay about a 10-15 percent charge on my order before I tip the driver. They don't pay their drivers (maybe a few dollars an

Are these antibody or antigen tests? I am extremely suspect that the antibody tests being used are not delivering false positives. There was a study that showed 800,000 people in Los Angeles likely have antibodies. This does not make sens

There are downsides to use package libraries as well. Like: 200mb hello world applications, or some companies restrict npm packages for security reasons. Or, you just want to write code in notepad.exe. There is benefit to simplicity in man

Exactly, that's why they want regulatory capture to force people to use their closed systems. I spend maybe 25 dollars a month in liquid for my tank. None of that money is going to big Tobacco which is why they are going to push for r

Thank you for this. I have struggled with addiction my whole life and switched to a tank based e-cig seven years ago and have not had a full cigarette since. I say fill cigarette because I use fruit flavored liquids and it helped me develop

So far Tesla has not really done much in terms of battery tech. Pretty much everything they are doing with 18650 cells in their cars and power walls is hardly ground breaking science. They have managed to make things look incredibly beautif

I have no CS degree. I see a lot of these comments poo-pooing the skills of people who taught themselves to program. From my experience, some of the best developers I have worked with do not have CS degrees. I have given many interviews wh

Interesting, this would be a problem for emergency communications set up to run on HF if it did indeed cause a total blackout. I know the VA out here uses HF for emergency communications in the event of a major disaster, I believe 80 meters

Another great project, although I don't think they have modified their firmware to run outside of the Part 15 wifi bands, so they have to deal with noise... Could be wrong though. :)

It's an intranet. Sort of a backup internet that would allow for data to be sent at a much higher rate than just voice. Here is the map in So Cal of the active nodes. https://mapping.kg6wxc.net/meshmap/map_display
