Wasn't that the whole point of NS2, to have a pipeline that doesn't go through Ukraine?

I don't think Ethereum PoS is ever coming anymore, or at least it will not displace the PoW version. It's been coming (TM) for a few years now.

I mean surely sometimes people have time-sensitive tasks to finish. And maybe they decide to let an update finish in a break. And they realize that it won't finish in time, so they do a hard reset. But then the rollback kicks in, which

I honestly don't think that the "physical structure" or actual shelter is the main problem w.r.t. homelessness. The land itself is a lot more expensive. And the legal framework. Where I am right now, it's illegal to slee

Why does it take me something like one paragraph to recognize that someone is from the Lesswrong sphere? (I was myself a part of the community at one point, before it became a cult)

I don't understand this about the Dutch people. So many old, granny bikes, that are so heavy, with steel fenders, steel stands etc. So heavy, inefficient. So many cyclists with their chains screeching loudly, as if they haven't se

Resize the window to obtain shorter lines, you can adjust text size from within the browser (ctrl & '+'), or edit the css yourself with the developer tools. I personally find the presentation clean and simple. Perfect for focu

To be fair, NASDAQ 100 also almost tripled in value in the same period, so it's not like Apple is a big outlier. It shows more about the socio-economic policies and environment we're going through than Apple itself.

> Jokes aside, why the prices are so high in some countries? Prices of all assets has skyrocketed in the last few years. Part of the blame for that is speculated to lie on the ZIRP (Zero interest-rate policy). Real estate all throughout

Off-topic, but I think in your particular circumstances, easiest would be to just move across the border to Switzerland.

This is another case of mistaking the cause for the effect. It is not alcohol, diet or online content that is causing the "enslaving", they are simply a coping mechanism, an effect or a symptom of a neuro-somatic problem. It'

I just did and the whole phone was frozen. I couldn't force close Chrome, nor do a graceful power off. After 2 min, a notification came up that allowed me to finally close the browser. Amazing how even after an army of contributors and

Wrong audience, buddy. People here don't like this kind of empty motivational content, and the vast majority of them are decent programmers already.

I used to have that. Then all residential customers were put under a CGN, and you can ask for a dedicated, public IP, free of charge. I imagine 99.9% of users can't tell the difference so the ISP saved a lot of IP space, while customer

The situation is a bit more complex than that. First, people don't live in the office, so even if you live closer to the workplace, you still spend a non-negligible amount of time preparing and getting there. It can easily amount to mo

Lima is the name of the open source driver project for Mali GPUs. I wish all these half baked projects that rapidly go unsupported didn't pollute the namespace with "clever" names, or at least don't reuse names. In this

As long as you don't have a big portion of your net worth in cash, it shouldn't affect you that much. Assets such as real estate, stocks should only appreciate in value in the long run.

Inaction has a much bigger impact than action in its effect. The most positive effect one can have is being poor or living like one, living in a 3rd world country. Homeless people are truly heroes compared to all people in this thread for i

We either read different articles, or have almost contradictory viewpoints. I have deep background in developmental trauma, developmental psychology, and trauma is in fact what destroys the resilience mentioned in the article. You don'
