There is a list of people that this effects. They probably all have iPhones though.

Could make "AI revolution" take on an entirely different meaning

I am curious if AI is successful if an AI backlash is coming. Perhaps one of the existing political parties or a new political party taking up the mantle of regulating or outright banning of AI. Or even just attacks on AI researchers and in

From a cleanability aspect if this maglev system works well I'd just want this without the LCD and clear keycaps.

I always thought the connection between turning a plane and a bike were somewhat interesting. With a plane, if you rudder left, it causes some right roll. And vice versa. If you roll left, you have to apply left rudder to counteract right r

I really liked that the Pure3D card [1] had a composite video output which allowed me to play Quake2 on my Apple //c monitor. Very bizarre retro future feel. 1: https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/3d-accelera

Crashes in the middle of the night are not what worries me. Who cares. It's silent data loss that can go unnoticed for a very long time. And not just a single bit. If the flip hits file system structures or file layout you can have mas

The article describes an important issue. For the effect to look right, you have to close one eye. I suppose if you had a stereoscopic display this would not be an issue

Even a single CPU operating like that is an illusion. Your ISA is controlling all sorts of stations within the CPU and getting good performance often means understanding hazards between the parallel processing occuring across different pipe

A lot of tooling and tolerances still uses thousands of an inch as well, complicating the use of a metric grid.

And see here I was hoping it was a discussion of post Kardashev type 1 civilizations.

As an opportunity to move to a more progressive tax system? Helping to reduce the tax load on lower income folks and shifting it up the tax bracket?

This makes sense for location specific services. If you are trying to compare two hotel rooms, by so means, they should be forced to include all the taxes they require since that doesn't involve your location and is important when comp

Because they vary based on the municipality you live in.

It can be a hard choice with young children. I grew up watching Christmas Story every year. My son is two and I'm very hesitant to continue that tradition when he's a bit older. I don't want him to think that mocking people f

There's a lot of study of allergy differences between rural and urban kids. The explanation given is often that rural kids have a much wider exposure to allergens and pathogens. This is an interesting alternative explanation.

The human brain operates on a few dozen watts. Our initial models will be very inefficient though.

It's super important for hardware that is not fully upstreamed or other projects that carry a large patch burden. The solution is of course to upstream, but being able to pick a stable kernel and run with it for years without rebasing

I'm curious in this situation if there was a TCAS warning.

Surveillance technology will only improve. Trying to live this way will become impossible. The only solution is regulation.

Then you have two allocations instead of one and related data is now likely to be farther away, possibly even in a different page.

I got to watch him talk at the LA festival of books along with Adam Higginbotham just before the series came out. Will definitely be digging into the podcast.

My favorite is when you pass another plane in the opposite direction along the same path but different altitude. The closing speed of two airliners at cruising speed is quite the thing to witness

This would turn out to be the absolutely incorrect solution. The core design of the system was driven by politics creating all kinds of engineering problems that would eventually doom the program. The actual solution was to cancel Ares I.

This seems a bit unlikely given that air has long been very widely used in production lines to remove objects that are too light. But it makes a neat story.

It's crazy how much demand there is for these. An original 15c is going for more than $200 on ebay and the limited edition re-release is going for more than $400. I was able to get the 15c re-release when they did it, wish they would h

My mom remade her career in her 60s. She now does QA, test, and manages the scrum for a dev team. I really don't think there's a limit.
