What's wrong with hydrogen? You can produce it with renewables, it basically works with existing IC technology and the exhaust is just water. The only hangup is the energy/volume ratio, which is an area of ongoing research.

If anyone is interested in this I highly recommend Longitude by Dava Sobel. It's about the creation of modern timekeepers by a carpenter with no training at all in watchmaking. Brilliant guy who created something which truly changed th

I can't help but think that 2021 is going to be the year a lot of people look back at as the turning point from where global warming was somebody else's problem to their problem.

it could, but the internet in general is like this and everyone still uses it. imagine if user/content discoverability is impossible without a fingerprint or token.

sometimes I wonder how people and politicians would react to a user-friendly decentralized and distributed social network with strong crypto in the right places and no hierarchy. if such a thing were ever made, it would be very difficult to

It's called a flying wing, pretty old design actually. They've been talking about passenger planes with this design for a while. This particular one was just a model though, nothing too ground breaking to see here.

They could prove it by publishing the code and making the builds reproducible so they have the same checksum as the binaries in the app store. I consider whatever they say lip service until proven otherwise. How anyone can call their app pr

I mapped a button to disable mouse input since the pad is right under my wrists when I type. For selecting one or two radio buttons or text fields, it's quicker to use the screen.

I've been doing this for the past 15 years. I use bash, tmux, (n)vim and git. It runs in whatever WM and on any OS I'll encounter. If your environment is a few simple tools, it's basically future proof and very portable. I li

im not necessarily opposed to it, but there are tradeoffs that come with a universal port. USB consortium tried to fix this with the coloroed tongues inside the female piece, but either manufacturers thought they were ugly or the number of

This depends on what's being learned and the scope of it. We don't start teaching kindergardeners math by diving into linear algebra. The main thing to me is to practice constantly, and to practice doing it properly. There's

Japan could have just said no to the Olympics, not paid the fine and told the IOC exactly where to put the contract. Hosting the games ends up costing the host countries more money anyway so if IOC skips over them in the future...so what? E
