   I think the problem is this is not government controlled, but will be individually implemented by each private org. Without central administration, they're likely to rely on the vaccination card they give patients to track when their

   I think post WW2, there was this unwritten social agreement. The company took care of you, and you took care of the company. At some point that agreement was severed. Companies stopped being loyal to employees, and slowly employees have

   I don't think so, this is not really meant for consumer oriented applications. Completely different regulatory animal.

   Lex has very solid content, but I do somewhat agree with the parent commentor. His delivery and style has alot of room for improvement... that does matter for a podcast. I don't blame anyone for struggling to listen to a 2-3 hour pod

   I understand your point, I really wan't try to make some kind of moral criticism of the process. I realize it was developed for a reason. My question was more about the point that especially with this new mRNA process, we're goi

   TSMC is absolutely killing it, but Samsung is catching up too. https://techxplore.com/news/2020-11-samsung-chip-wars-tsmc.h... Still, I think there's a pretty reasonable argument to be made about our dependence on

    My understanding is that part of the reason AMD went with a chiplet design was to work around this issue.

    In a recent article about the Moderna vaccine, it was mentioned that the actual development only took 2 days.... and it was done in January! Given how short of a time it took to actually develop this thing, could we have drastically sped up

    OpenSCAD is another option... but it's a pretty different approach.

    Fusion 360 and Blender are fundamentally different tools. Stickign with Fusion is probably the best course of action if your goal is to 3D print a part.

    Technology seems to swing like pendulum between running remote and running locally as technology evolves. Recently I purchased an RTX 3090, and between my Ryzen with 24 threads, and the 64 GB of memory I bought for a few hundred dollars it

    So many aspects of our lives can potentially be linked back to the economy. Not really trying to make the argument that it is directly related, but income and obesity are highly correlated. Cheap calories often are bad calories. If going

    Move fast and break things is a really unfortunate name. In my experience, the process of continous deployment, and the automation and defintion of processes to do it well bring more stability than the "move slow and keep things stabl

    That's easy to say in 2020 when mobility in general is non-existent. But if you travel even somewhat often, it's nice to have the ability to carry the environment with you. I used to take the train to work every day. I was neve

    I Love it, I have never used jq without first googling how to do the thing I want to do. It does not do 1 thing well, it does many things not so well.

    CS has this tendency to revive old ideas as we make progress with hardware. Raytracing for example is nowhere near a new idea, but with the progress made in graphics processors, real-time raytracing is suddenly the big new thing.

    Sorry if I missed something while reading this. Does this system reduce the dependency on added Nitrogen (given the luming Nitrogen crisis coming in the future if current rates persist)?

    Combined with the latest twitter bout of censorship, the hammer is going to hit tech soon... very hard. They are running out of friends on both the left and right.
