How would it be better, in the long run? Almost no people will use their bio page for storage of recipes or any kind of blog. There are explicit roles against doing so, and Wikipedia is constantly inundated with spam. Off the small fracti

I had the same thing happen, turns out Privacy Badger blocks some important component in the recognition, so switching to a private window fixes it.

This is interesting, because once it recognizes my drawing, it cuts me off before I finish, which would seem like it's adding incomplete drawings to the training set. Maybe it just wants examples of versions that it can't already

I'm not sure if you can call it "designed to taste like human meat" when it's actually human meat that just wasn't produced in a human, though that's another interesting breakdown.

Generally it's called a republic if there is representative government, i.e. if you have a senate or a congress. Presumably by direct democracy people mean voting directly on issues, in which case I'm not sure there's any sta

I could see another angle in the meantime, which is exotic lab grown meats. I'd be interested in trying bald eagle meat or polar bear or any number of animal meats where it's either illegal or impractical to culture full animals.

"Someone should kill you." Or "I hope someone kills you." are not, by the way, death threats. A death threat would be, "I'm going to kill you." That said, I'm only inferring the nature of the "th

Yeah, mailing in your absentee ballots together could work - I assume that the people on apps aren't doing that because it would be difficult for most people to travel to another state. That said, anything that allows you to prove who

This is not as stupid an idea as I thought from the headline, but it still suffers from the problem that (for good reason), there is no way for a position to prove who they voted for. As such, both parties are strictly better off cheating b

I don't understand why they call it an Unsplash license. I would have understood (and been thrilled by) this immediately if I had realized it was CC-0.

If you are using ProtonMail for anything critical you're doing it wrong. It might be more convenient than other encrypted mail solutions, but it's in-browser cryptography with all the security issues that entails.

I think the point was that the eugenics movement was one of the early examples of overenthusiastic technocratic cheerleading. Eugenics was all the rage among intellectuals and science enthusiasts at the time.

For these reasons, for me, Pebble was the only smartwatch that appealed to me, hardware-wise, but it's worth noting that the ToS on their Pebble software is ridiculously anti-privacy. There's an alternative app on Android that is
