From [0] we can see that there are 10 banks founded before 1700 and 24 from 1700 to 1800. So it might not be that far fetched, assuming that the banks keep your accounts open after more than 100 years without use. [0] https://en.

Are there sat links with enough bandwidth to siphon data off undersea cables? I have no knowledge of this area but I always thought sat links can't compete with multi gbps cables. Maybe I'm wrong though.

I'm not a parent so my knowledge here is pretty scarce, but what I've understood from friends that have kids, is that when a baby wakes up, both parents wake up due to instinct (i.e. is the baby ok?). So I wonder if what you sugge

That sounds interesting. Any links to further explain what DTAM is/how it works?

Off-topic, but, it's very interesting how they translate the Asterix and Obelix character names across languages. In Spanish the druid is called Panoramix for whatever reason :)

With the growth of space initiatives as we've seen recently, maybe they could pursue some of their own?

Have you tried using an ergonomic keyboard? I had always used non-ergonomic mice and kbs, until one day I started noticing some wrist pain when in certain positions. After a few months the pain increased and I figured this wasn't right

Interesting. I guess it's one of those things we take for granted now and thus you think that it can't be that hard to create... and then you try to do so and you realize how complex some things really are. Thanks for the details!

by saganus 7y ago
I've never implemented one so I'm sure it's more complex than what it looks like. So you piqued my curiosity. What are some examples of those non-trivial things?

I agree that this is the picture I get in my mind when talking about "fat" languages. So I was wondering if it was something that people felt differently, or if it was mainly the same theme, as it seems like it is.

I have been wondering for some time now, when exactly is a language "fat" or "light"? The idea seems to be there and "obvious" in a way, but haven't been able to pinpoint exactly what it is. Is it a feelin

I guess the GP refers to treating all linux gamers as "cheaters" is not cool. Like another comment says, maybe it's easier to cheat using Wine, and thus banning the platform is faster/cheaper, even though they might end

I am not aware of anything like what you describe, but I did see some people in that Zoom call suggesting the creation of a Discord and/or Slack channels. However what I fear is that they will become like any other modern forum in that

Stayed on that call for over 3 hours and I just have to say that it was one of the best experiences I've had on the internet in years . People behaved pretty good considering it was a random public Zoom call (except for a few trolls,

That sucks big time. Sorry for your loss.

In my experience, most people don't even care about their own future, i.e. retirement and such, and instead buy cars and other stuff that they can't afford, because short term satisfaction is more compelling than long term one.

Those fumes in the video can't be healthy, right? Why is this person standing there just inhaling that? I would be very concerned about breathing battery-fire fumes, no? Maybe they are not as toxic as I think? What should one do if thi

A bit off-topic but, I have a TRS-80 Model 4P that does not turn on. On the inside everything seems fine (but I'm no expert). Does anyone know where could I have one of these repaired? I'd love to boot it up again as it was the fi

I seem to remember that the old saying comes from Tanenbaum's "Operating Systems Design and Implementation". Or not?

I've never driven an A8, and it definitely looks like a very big car. I just thought that you were referring to something else. But yeah, I can imagine that a car that big is hard to maneuver pretty much anywhere.

Giant snake-like Audi? Like a modified limousine Audi, or? I can't picture what you are describing as I don't think the A8 qualifies as snake-like, does it? Piqued my curiosity for sure :)

Wow... how do you achieve petabytes of NVMe? like, what is the biggest drive that you can get today? And then you just plug a ton of them into what kind of "motherboard" to interconnect them? I guess Infiniband based bus? or I am

If I remember correctly, in the book Skunkworks they explain that it would increase the air pressure. The analogy made was that it was similar to putting a finger on a garden hose to partially block it, thus increasing the water pressure. O
