No, why are you saying they didn't step up. They lost the presidency, the house and the senate and the supreme court has had a conservative majority since before Bidens term. So what didn't they do, that they could have done?

You are looking it from the wrong angle the way I see it. First there are significant quantities of oils grown used in cooking and discarded, in an often environmentally damaging way. Reclaiming and burning these adds value to a waste produ

Always found ipfs and the whole "web 3.0" company to be incredibly obtuse to work with especially compared to previous peer to peer networks like bit-torrent. I could never shake the feeling there is an unnecessary layer of grift

You do know you can burn stuff that is not dug up from the ground right? From ethanol to sun flower and coconut oil. You can pretty much just pour them in a gas tank and the engine will just work.

While I generally agree, the specific regulation case seems to be particularly egregious, the playbook for the regulation already existed through the VAT system. They deliberately chose to add to the single markets fragmentation. By adding

While the regulation is really stupid and could be done much better with either a one stop shop or with simply taxing/complying in the country of origin instead of destination. It opens a very clear market opportunity for LECTRONZ them

The arbitrary time limit, combined with the forced refresh clearing out your text input is greatly frustrating. And reflects badly especially since the initial hints mention that only user interactions advance time.

The kind interpretation of his statement is that Bitcoin mining has moved to the hands of corporations. Its not nerds in their garages running gpus, but an entire "corporate" industrial complex designing, and shipping custom chips

Listen that's all great in theory, but the vast majority of the actual use is extortions, drug dealing[1], terrorist financing, money laudring and authoritarian regimes evading sanctions. The only value is that it does not go through b

I believe what happens for these users is they think amazon does not have it since it's not visible on their screen or near the top and click away, look for something else.

Iron smelting had not been invented yet. Meteorites were the only readily available source of iron. Upon the invention of smelting all iron rings appear to be smelted.

Linear B also maps poorly to Greek as far as I know. It's clearly an adaption of a foreign script.

Icelands products are legit trash. Tesco is marginally better. The best supermarket in the UK is Waitrose but the price premium is excessive compared to the quality.

I care about optimal word choice when generating LLM texts. Because my use case is almost exclusively reading the generated text not posting it. I use LLMs to summarize, translate and review other texts. When using LLMs in that way, as a re

Not trying to defend anyone, but in my experience the latest models have been performing significantly better than 8 months ago. So, in my book the extent of over-fitting on benchmarks seems to be covering my use cases.

Centering a div was a hack built on hacks based on a spec that was derived from random browser behaviors built over decades. I am super happy I don't have to do that shit again. Both because of flexbox and AI. But yeah you need to know
