No, it's not that simple. The snow crab fishery is pretty highly regulated and considered to be sustainably harvested (by NOAA, the Monterey Bay Aquarium, others). As mentioned in an another article [1] from August on the recent disapp

It's about 921 acre feet. Not a huge amount, but it would be significant for a town like Coalinga that is on the brink of running out of drinking water.

I'm slightly irritated at how many people have no problem with the salaries of every public employee in the state being public information, from groundskeepers to teachers, to head coaches, yet want to keep their own pay private. Many

I think Lua is a good example. It has stayed simple and avoided change because of its position as an embedded language and strong leadership. Another good one would be Smalltalk.

I remember learning C on my dad's computer running CP/M. My dad spent $4,000 on his computer ($16,800 today; ThinkerToys/CompuPro S-100 bus system) and it was his pride and joy. We spent hours working on it together. Unlike m

I've been reading the original 1897 Dracula via Dracula Daily, where each chapter is emailed to you on the day of the year that the events happen in the book. I think the format helps, but it's pretty scary.

I purchased TM-2 from Echelon in 1986. I was a minor, so I went to Echelon's office in Los Altos and paid cash for an 8" floppy. TM-2 was awesome, but extremely buggy. I used it on an Altos ACS8000, a 4-user machine that originall

I'm not disputing your personal recollection, just adding another data point, but I have lived in SF since 2013 and have never experienced anything like that.

Humans are nothing more than water and a bunch of organic compounds arranged in a particular order through what is ultimately a statistical process (natural selection). Would we even recognize sentience in a virtual entity? > sentience

In YouTube world, you are guilty until proven innocent, and if you get too many "strikes" you get shut down and lose your voice on one of the biggest platforms for creators. The sad thing is TikTok and FB/Meta are even worse.

Giving him a "payday" alone isn't really justice. Whoever is responsible should spend 17 days in jail. Of course, that will never happen, but it's what should happen if the goal is to prevent "mistakes" like th

Apple already has a password manager as part of iOS/MacOS. Your passwords sync seamlessly on other Apple devices via iCloud. There is nothing to install. My octogenarian mother uses it daily on her iPad and iMac.

This makes me curious if a similar trail has ever existed from the Pacific to the Atlantic in the USA / Canada. I know the Camino Real that crosses Panama very well, but that is a much, much shorter distance!

I wish one could get Macintosh Common Lisp working on this. My introduction to programming was with MCL, and it was amazing to use. So much has changed over the past few decades. I wonder what it would be like to use it now.

How about: Autonomous cars that can "tattle" to the authorities on vehicles that break speed limits or violate traffic laws. Maybe the owner of the autonomous vehicle would even get a cut of any traffic fines.
