Seems more likely that those same Congresspersons (Congresspeople?) will try to stomp you out of existence, before making any changes to the law. I don't imagine people with such amount of power and connections to just roll over becaus

But even if you can somehow make your own hardware, how long until governments start requiring interaction with certain services (health, banking, taxes, etc) be signed by an _approved_ OS/processor combo? Imagine tax software (comerci

Yeah, I remember reading a lot about those playlists, and I understasnd that can be pretty disturbing or upsetting if you as a parent assume that a playlist is "safe". However if YT already has the ability to mark videos as for ki

I can understand disabling the comments section, but for playlists I would've expected that you could only make playlists with all videos from the kids section, or if you add a kids video to a regular playlist, then that playlist can&#

A bit off-topic but, does anyone have an explanation of why you can't save a video marked for kids, into a playlist? I've encountered videos that aren't really "for kids", but are marked as so for whatever reason an

Interesting. Did not know about that ! One more question, by fuels used to cool the concrete, I'm thinking you are referring to powering the pumps that circulate the cool water in the tubes inside the concrete slabs, right? Or is it co

How does hydro produce greenhouse gases? Is it because of the massive amount of concrete needed or because of something else?

A bank I used in the past does that AND also does not allow you to set consecutive numbers that increase or decrease, e.g. 12, 34, 87, etc. No idea how maby bits of entropy it removes but it's absurd.

You should read the comic at http://elan.school It's unbelievable and if they ever make a movie or HBO-type series of it, it will need to be seriously toned down, lest it ends up being too horrirific.

Interesting. Thanks for the insight! I guess it IS very different to believe, for decades, in a mission that includes space telescopes than in the latest SaaS or productivity app or something more "mundane". Not that there's

Any particular reason that they stay for so long at their jobs? Obviously working on such cool projects must be a major factor, but it's probably not the only one.

Yeah, that sounds like it could work. I guess that if the customer wants a feature further down the roadmap then it really isn't solving their problem yet so perhaps I should wait.

by saganus 5y ago
Ah, that makes sense. It seems obvious but I guess I've seen too many salespeople tell the customer whatever they want to hear and I loathe that as it's definitely dishonest, so I felt like I would need to do the same to be able t

As a software developer, one of the things that I feel that always holds me back when selling something I made (an MVP for example) is knowing all the things that the software can't do or is not super polished. How do you sell somethin

One of the things that baffles me the most about SO is that I can't sort answers by _newest first_. If I search for something related to javascript for example, I know there will be a ton of answers for older versions that I am most li

How does one program something like this directly in assembly? Do you use an IDE that makes things easier? I remember doing very simple programs in asm during college, but it wasn't anywhere near this complex. Any resources or articles

Do you really need to stay a full month? I thought people would fly, get the shot, then fly back home until it's time to get the second one. Otherwise it seems like it would be very expensive, might need to go back to work, etc.
