I hear that the Washington Post just fired 1/3 of all of it's reporters. Otherwise, if so many jobs have disappeared, does that mean that my garbage company no longer needs to employ a staf on every truck to drive it and empty my

That's how I did it in GradSchool. I took over the web page another student started for the grad-level algorithms class I was taking. The student who started it discovered he had volunteered for too many things. I jumped on it when

I was setting up a small system to do web site serving. Mostly just experimental to try out some code. Like learning how to use nginx as a reverse proxy. And learing how to use dynamic dns services since I am on dynamic dns at home. Ear

Which Times does Rubio want: There's a NY version, and a Chicago version. I got politely informed to not use NYTimes font in a paper I turned-in when I was in college. On that occasion, it was an accident. I'd taken the file to

In some reading I did several (decades) years ago, I read how the invention of the oscillator was an accident. Someone was building an amplifier, and made a wiring error that was described as connecting the amplifier's input to the am

It seems to me that it might make sense to have every parking meter have an EV charging capability. Granted, parking meter posts aren't generally wired for power, but many places have them for parking places. Could also put a securit

You can't build trust in your OS (operating system) when your OS spies on the entire customer base, and you spin it off as telemetry. Or you remotely target the OS to implement a radical change, and force it to be installed as an &#x2

Might have been nice to know where the clubs are? San Francisco? South Africa? Belgium? And what demographic the clubs serve, i.e are any of the clubs LGBTQ+, or are the all hetero? They don't generally play the same material.

And here I thought this would be about Transformers: Robots in Disguise. The form of transformers I'm tired of hearing about. And the decepticons.

What about an editor that is designed for multiple people to edit the same document? Tie the second keyboard, the second mouse, and a second cursor as resources together and independently edit?

It was as if a dark gray curtain fell slowly and I couldn't see through it. This was the retina coming off from the top edge and folding down over the bottom half.

It seems to me that Hurricane Sandy caused an issue with fueling backup generators in a New York City datacenter, where there was a bucket-brigade of people carrying fuel in pails up flights of steps several stories.

How often does that inverter burn-out a transistor? Is there a backup inverter? Do you keep replacement transistors on-site?

I wouldn't trust it, myself. I was laying out a new circuit board design for a client when my eyesight went all wonky. It turns out I had a detached retina. Yhe first repair procedure failed. The second procedure went well. Then I

If the website is for humans, why isn't it readable? I mean white text on an off-yellow background is mostly only readable by bots and screenreaders. I had to higlight the entire site to read anything, a trick which doesn't alwa
