How does a project sign in? As a developer, I have no idea if you are holding money for my project, or how to claim existing or future funds owing. Everything I see is about analyzing my tree and donating to other people.

We know consciousness is not "real time" if for no other reason than eye saccades. Our consciousness is essentially off while our eyes move, and when they stop we guess at what we think happened and our consciousness catches up. W

What is odd though is that it seems the state of NSW doesn't think it has obligations to the United Nations, even though the body who has the constitutional authority to place that obligation on them (the Federal Government) did so.

"All kinds of incongruity can get us laughing" I first heard from a talk or interview by John Cleese (and impossible to find, with his serious stuff on the science behind humor lost in all the results of him being funny). And it t

A much better starting point than trying to zap mosquitos in flight. Cover small 2d areas rather than large 3d volumes, and bigger targets. Rats would be easir still, but you would need a serious laser for them, so get it right on the cockr

If you can receive information from alternative universes, experiments can be devised to prove this, and would indeed answer a great many questions in quantum physics. Physicists and others interested in the field would be extremely gratefu

It is kind of the point with open software that, when you scratch an itch, others also benefit.

There are also lights that adjust to slopes, such as when cresting a hill. And lights that greatly widen at T and cross intersections so you can see where you are going to turn too.

Major version upgrades by definition contain breaking changes. Automatic upgrades across major versions will break things. Still, some distributions do handle this somewhat sanely. For example, Debian and derivatives such as Ubuntu let you

Tackling climate change does not necessarily reduce the standard of living of hundreds of millions. There certainly is a cost to tackling climate change, and the rich will certainly prefer the masses bear the cost. Over here, the major non-

Interestingly, using the highest capacity drives at any point in time would work even worse since they spun slower and slower sequential write speed. If you could get them from your preferred vendor, which seemed to be several years after i

Yes, it is fantastic how people are reproducing scientific studies now, and even building on them. Just recently there was a study on firefighters and a question comes up about eating early or late in the window. And now, here is a study th

Until studies are reproduced in places like Spain, we won't know if they could be even healthier. And if studies cannot be replicated, that is interesting too as it could help narrow down why intermittent fasting approaches show bene

Yes, you can run multiple nodes on a single physical server. However, then you have the additional headache of ensuring that only one copy of data gets stored on that physical server, or else you can lose your data if that server dies. Simi

It is horrible. It is also the last resort. I guess we will never know how many hobbyists or tiny businesses it actually helps, unless Canonical adds a tracking id to the links.

I don't think Debian has the resources to do 10 year support, even if they can make use of the patches Canonical will be providing.

by stubish 4y ago
This and /etc/motd are really the only communication channel Canonical has with some of their users. If nothing else, they need to use them to inform people when they are out of support. It would be unethical to not do that when t

Ubuntu LTS is only 5 years, and only for the core (the server stuff really, the 'main' and 'restricted' repos). Desktop and other 'universe' stuff has a shorter time frame. After 5 years, companies wanting to k

> If I don't eat 2,5h before and after sleeping, would this be enough? Some researchers think so, yes. I don't think anyone knows what is optimal. Research is ongoing.

No, all your eating happens in that 10 hour window. You fast for at least 14 hours per day. Easy enough if you eat an early dinner and don't snack after.

Hindenburg is brought up in every single article about airships, so reminding people to remember is rather redundant. It happened 80 years ago. 30 people died. There might even have been one or two people looking into the causes over the la

The language will fix a chunk of it. Much buggy code simply cannot be compiled, and if you can't compile it you can't ship it. You are mostly left with logic and design errors, which can become more obvious due to the language. Mi

That could happen. One of the easiest ways of handling the situation would be to sign an agreement with an organization like Tidelift, who pass money on to OSS projects to keep handling the dev work.
