Personally I think this is a function the the FBI should fill. However, there is a risk they would sit on zero days and weaponize them (or give them to another three letter agency). I wonder if an org like the EFF could add this to their sc

Some of it may be that a vanguard fund needs a minimum of $3000 per fund (for most of the low fee index funds). Betterment IIRC has 10+ funds: https://www.betterment.com/portfolio/

I have peaked out at mid 70 and 80 weeks but a portion of that was hard and/ speedwork. You must have lovely biomechanics to not get hurt with that much bulk even at 8 minute pace. Still hard for 99.9%+ of people. But anyways...

Considering many Olympic runners run 100+ mile weeks I disagree. I have also run on a division 1 cross country team as a walk-on and I saw friends push themselves to the point of passing out across the finish line. That being said weekend w

From what I recall almost all tickets are non-refundable or they cost a lot more. So it seems like they are already covered...

Seriously. Dell's website is a tire fire. I have been on the cusp of buying an XPS-13 several times but the lack of usability and details during the configuration process is a big turn-off. For instance it took me a long time to figure

That comment seems needlessly negative and requires everyone to fit within your definition of "making". The hacker dojo events seem somewhat broad though many are more software based: https://events.hackerdojo.com/

Some company like google or apple or facebook should just hire him for $1.00 a year as "Hacker in Residence" and give him full benefits. Also the surgery was March 28th. Is he OK? Or is the date supposed to be April?

Still not seeing your point. The goal is x. We achieve x/2. We still achieved something. We proved we can actually make an international agreement with long term goals and short term sacrifice and make improvements. I don't really

TIL! Great feature. After you have your two side by side apps you can also drag the border in between to make one larger than the other.

Most people don't have 5-8k to drop. The main problem with your specs is thinner/lighter is diametrically opposed to longer battery life and more RAM which consumes more energy. In 2015 the macbook pro had a 99.5 watt-hour battery

The phrase "virtue signaling" is so useless. As if any action that does not have clear and immediate results is just posturing and pandering. I think change absolutely has to come from governments and thus diplomats. Are corporati

That's a good point. Might be a good workaround to sort of "sandbox" the password manager from your active web browser. Have a second browser with the plugin installed that you use only to copy the password to your clipboard

Wellll, 33% of your revenue being cut means a lot of people get fired and services degrade so I would not say it's symbolic. Abortions also count for only about 3% of their spending. Yes, they are a lightening rod for controversy. Yes,

And all of the performance improvements are in the GPU space. A 2 or 3 year old CPU is not that big a deal but a 2 or 3 year old GPU? I believe it's an order of magnitude slower (or more). Here is an example of GPU improvements vs. CPU
