Amazon's delivery service now (in my area, anyway) takes a photo of the package once it's placed on your doorstep, and the Amazon iPhone app confirmation includes a notice showing the photo. It's been a nice feature for me, u

Seems to me that it’s another part of a fingerprint for a user that can locate them, and possibly place you with others in the vicinity who have ID’d the same audio. Retail outlets have playlists that could be ID’d, possibly with enough gra

I use the Beaglebone Black running NodeRED to (gently) teach my kiddos about flow-based programming. All while it provides a HomeKit interface to my ISY/Insteon/Hue home automation accessories.

Hibernation when a spot instance is reclaimed is an excellent addition. Like TFA says, it’s like closing the lid on your laptop, and re-opening it later. This definitely makes spot instances more attractive to developers who don’t have the,

In my experience analyzing these sorts of things for my skunkworks project, the "source" (client or app) and too-quick-to-be-human retweet brigades are dead giveaways, and I'd imagine they're part of this algorithm. I al

The moon's core isn't made of the swirling molten iron dynamo like Earth's is. No swirling molten iron, no magnetic field. No magnetic field, nothing deflects the solar wind that then, literally, blows away any fledgling atmo

Water is formed naturally when the oxygen created by the fusion process in stars combines with the hydrogen from those same stars, often after a supernova explosion. Water is fairly abundant in the universe. As are alcohols.

I feel like people replying missed the "when they report objectively factual accounts of world events" qualifier. They don't often do that. Fox News is deeply biased, that isn't in dispute. Only if they or another news o

Fox News, when they report objectively factual accounts of world events, isn't "fake news". Breathlessly repeating irrelevant stories against the current political grain on Fox News? Still not fake news. Biased, sure. Selecti

Problematic to whom? Readers who seek a factual account of an event. Why is this so subjective, and why are people so riled up in these threads? News should be objectively true. If it isn't, it should be clearly flagged as opinion, or

That is incorrect. It was running effectively without nearly that much maintenance even last year, and there is no earthly reason for a site to need 12 hours of weekly downtime. It's not as if there are floors that need to be mopped or
