Define "usable frequencies". You are making pretty ridiculous sounding claims btw. I would rather believe that we can max out cell tower wired connection bandwidth, than completely saturate radio frequencies. Obvious solution, as

Can you stop with this "in layman terms"? Let's just take a look at radio spectrum in US [1]. Right now you are trying to say, that everything there is completely saturated 100% of the time? That is simply false. [1] https:&

The biggest problem, is that password managers give layman false sense of security and by doing so, they are putting him in much bigger risk than he was before. Most advertisements are basically implying "Use password manager and you d

Password managers are the definition of "putting all your eggs in one basket". You need to compromise 1 (ONE) password to get access to EVERYTHING. They are a lot more convenient, but barely more secure than a plaintext notepad fi

Graphics programming in general has a pretty steep learning curve in the beginning compared to other fields of programming. Even with simpler OpenGL it's not so easy. You need to have quite a bit of knowledge before you even get your f

Not really. Hatsune Miku is more like an instrument. Like piano or violin, but synthesized human voice (not completely synthesized even, they used voice samples from the real human). Miku is one of many vocaloids. You can think of vocaloid

I think it's foolish to believe someone, who lied to you before, only based on words. I agree, people come and go, but if you are "new blood" you can only do so much. But I not against Microsoft in particular. They are rich a

I don't get why people downvote this post. It's like everyone completely forgot about Halloween documents[1]. We should be very careful with Microsoft. [1] - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halloween_documents

It is not that easy. Mutation works both ways. You can also lose something very fast, if it's no longer needed (basic rule of evolution - "Use it or lose it").

Developers don't care. Games are usually optimized for 4 cores max. For example, i7-6700K (4 cores) perform better than i7-6950X (10 cores) in almost every modern game.

Yeah, I guess I was wrong about regulation. But point still stands. From your second link: "In the U.S., about 80 percent of antibiotics are used for livestock and 20 percent for humans"

"The problem is that we need to let millions of people die of curable diseases constantly" Not the case at all. Biggest use of antibiotics today is in food production(agriculture etc.), not in hospitals. And it's also complet

"Palmer owned most of the company" Not really. Even before that whole kickstarter campaign he was just a founder. Roughly, the deal was: Palmer giving full power to Iribe, Iribe helping Palmer with investors/kickstarter.

by ss248 10y ago
It's not the case. Iribe just sold everyone out. He made 5 minute (like literally) decision all by himself. Everyone (Palmer, Carmack, Abrash) heard about Facebook acquisition after the deal was already set. It was already to late for

How is that relevant? I will tell you. Experiments on animals are not pretty, but they are the least harmful way of moving science forward. The only thing we can do is to make sure no animal have to die/suffer without real necessity an

Kids use okasan/otosan only when they are talking about third party mom/dad. They use haha (which make even more sense, according to article) or chichi when speaking about their own mom and dad.
