Thanks for this insight. I would suspect that Coal and Natural Gas generation plants use a lot of water for cooling. When the plant is designed to dump as much extra heat as possible, as cheaply as possible (for 100-degree days and ~200-deg

Copyleft is generally regarded as a clever "fix" because of the brokenness of software copyright. Cory Doctorow even addresses this at the beginning of this article. He mentions that the GPL came out around the same time software

I personally prefer to let Apple have it, it's "open source" all right. If you want Free Software, then feel free to use something more potent than merely an "open source" license the next time you release something

Many of the companies that appear to be "harvesting" their entrenched customers have not switched away from a FOSS license. Examples: • Apple • Amazon • Facebook • Google • Microsoft • Netflix • Red Hat

Just some ideas for fun: • Cook during the work hours, and see if you can tag team the cooking. Hilarious "failures" are the norm here. • Plan and make a gift for someone meaningful to you both (if you're into arts and crafts

It's not a science, so objectively it could be argued either way. The "No synth" argument - as you say, a good DAW with the right plugins completely covers the space. No one will ever need a physical synth again. I guess we c

Thank you for your contribution to this discussion. I believe these different ideologies can coexist. You can call me "nerds or people who don't have the work," I'll keep writing the free software and making the money. I

In essence, the freedom "free as in freedom" means you are free to pay nothing, or pay it to the off-brand hosting company. As you say, "I'm not a douchebag" implies there's some kind of karma involved; when My

Worth looking at it from the viewpoint of the Multi-Armed Bandit problem as well, or in other words, companies sometimes shift their focus from "exploration" to "exploitation," and it can be a challenge for the company t

While it's not often that an iPhone is called "Made in Taiwan" or the latest Gaming Console as "Made in Japan," Taiwan and Japan are still very much present in the US. I completely agree though that the label "

The article links to a thread on the linux-usb mailing list where the author mentions he does sometimes resort to that. It sounds to me like the author genuinely wants to have a discussion about some of the quirks in the USB protocol. I don

AnandTech's analysis corroborates what DeRock is saying here about the x86 variable length instructions being the limiting factor on how wide the decode stage can be. The other factor is Apple is using a "better" process node
