I don't think it has evolved. I feel that it became more like a hack, on top of a hack, on top of another hack, and so on. In the late 90's - early 2000's, HTML started to being pushed into fields that, at my opinion, were un

For me is weirder... As a spanish and italian speaker the word "excited" always gets the "aroused" meaning... To be "exitado" (spanish) or "eccitato" (italian) means exactly to be aroused.

Mask usage is good enough. Even better if every person in the world uses them. Want 100% effectiveness? Then stay at home.

Thanks. Yes, I clarified some points in other answers. My message was intended to be as simple as possible, because a healthcare worker won't be even questioning all these facts after six months of life/death struggle.

I'll stick to the guidelines and assume your message is in good will.... It prevents your spits to reach other's noses and mouths. If all of us wear masks, then no spits flying around = no spread.

I think you refer to this: https://www.facebook.com/WHO/posts/2953744821337548 Also: "Wear a mask if you are coughing or sneezing" They don't say "NOT to wear masks", as you said earlier.

> It does protect yourself, also. True, but not 100% accurate. You can get it also through your eyes, or by touching something infected like a door knob and touching your eyes or mouth. > CDC and WHO were both saying NOT to wear masks

Maybe there is a legal difference between stealing the data, selling the data and using the data (perhaps in terms of prison years?).

It's been +6 months of Coronavirus, and still people don't get this right: Wearing a mask (for the most of us not working in healthcare) prevents you from spreading the disease. It's not for protecting yourself, but for prote

Many think this is true (even I did) but it's not. You have to certify the product anyway, even if you use an off-the-shelf module. The only difference is that you can "certify with test" and "certify without test"

I wonder how all these maker sellers get along with Bluetooth SiG certification. Edit: I mean, the product is presented very well. There was a clear investment in time and money. And because of that, this question was the first thing that

I don't know if it is about racism. I think it's normal to become defensive when accused. If I say "your ML model is garbage" I am sure they will (maybe, if I am high-profile too) provide an explanation on why or why

I remember the SX-64. This was the computer I started coding (basic). Impressive graphics capabilities. This "portable" computer was so heavy I couldn't lift it from the ground (I was 5 o 6 at that time).
