Why humans? People are concerned about the survivability of human species, and it's certainly a noble goal, but at this point it's outside or technological reach. Preserving life, in the other hand, could be doable. We «just» need

With tshark used to be possible to capture packets using display filters, which was pretty handy in lots of situations. When privilege separation was implemented, the feature was lost(bug 2234). I understand the importance of privilege sepa

Spanish Tax Agency and Social Security both use SSL client certificates to authenticate citizens, and I guess that's also true for other countries with smart cards as national id cards. Works fine for authentication. Usually the proble

Spanish here. One of biggest differences is that spanish vowels always sound the same, that's why spelling contests aren't a thing here. It's pretty confusing at first, until you embrace the fact that there aren't shortc

Most of the models that we use everyday are "leaky abstractions". They are useful in most contexts, but they get fuzzy at their boundaries. My favourite example is the "chicken and egg" problem. The difficulty of it is t

I know, but that proves that cancer scares people to the point of doing silly things. An innocuous screening test, even with a fair amount of false positives could be a huge win.

I don't know the answer to that, but I know that some people are taking full-body CT scans annually or bi-annually because of fear of cancer.

The councils(not the goverment) sell/auctions a tiny fraction of licenses. There's a secondary market where license owners sell them, usually when they retire.

Also, licenses had their own bubble. Probably their value has decreased about a 50% since the peak.

Colonizing a close planet like Mars only has any sense as a way of avoiding extinction in case something really nasty happens in Earth. I can't think any other motive to try that.

This book is great, even if you don't use FreeBSD. I remember that I learnt how a TLB/MMU really works by reading this book, and not on an Operating Systems lecture.

Ahem... Some days ago I went to a live show and the actor started to interact with the public. At some point he asked women to raise the hand if they knew the meaning of "bukake". Almost no women raise her hand. When it was men&#x

ONO really was an startup? I don't think that any startup, in the HN sense(garage startup), has the financial strength to become overnight a cable company. Anyway, I haven't heard about this "guy", Eugenio Galdon, and it

Vettel was cruising most of the race. That's what he has been doing during all the seasons. He opens a gap in few laps and takes care of tyres and engine for the rest of the race. If needed(as after a Safety Car), he does it again. He&
