I've never heard a convincing argument for the upside of social media. It's never looked like a good way to spend time from the outside. I guess this is the difference between people who look at drugs and decide not to even try t

Private schools could but in my experience as a private HS grad, they DO NOT. There are other factors that prevent that.

Yeah but... if the barge base the tower is attached to isn't of the order as large on each side as the tower is tall, the first gale will capsize it.

Seems like if you filled out the entitlements properly it should be allowed - informed consent. But that's messed up if you did that.

Exactly. This is good for PG&E because it can't be blamed for wild fires. The wild fires will still continue to happen only now it will be the set remaining causes: (lightning, car exhaust systems, campers' fires, arsonists,

This will at least relieve PG&E from responsibility of causing wild fires. BUT it won't stop wild fires if forest maintenance continues to remain unfunded by the California state government! Putting lines underground definitely wil

The problem is our legal system has become something where everyone is violating some law somehow all the time. So everyone is a possible criminal.

The way regulate is like anything else: if they fail to meet QoS uptimes, they get fined in 6-8 figures for every minute of loss.

California is still worse. NO ALMONDS. They are water pigs and if you eat almonds you are aiding and abetting environmental damage at a grotesque scale.

It's easy to destroy something. But very hard to replicate its order and structure quickly, status quo ante. This is why conservatives exist: they know this so their position is: "Think this plan through 3-20 more times first to

The fact you can't "explain" how NN/ML arrives at its answers easily perhaps makes it a bit different but yeah, mostly. With stenography you overall statistic changes that can sometimes indicate it (though those can be

It's about the time constants of communication that cause this. Given time, the truth wins out. But when you accelerate communication beyond human capacitor to process it, you get what we have today.

I'm always amazed that people actually think "online/digital is forever". I NEVER has been and never will be. And as we each "create" more data, the life span will decrease as fast. Even websites can't b

The only data about the Carrington event is very niche. Telegraph lines make very good antenna for the EM that comes from either CME or EMP. A shorter "antenna" would not work remotely as well. This is why most of the horror sto

Strictly microprocessors ONLY do GOTO at an assembly/machine code level. So it's merely a snobby abstraction to shun them on reflex rather than thinking the specifics through.

Being organic also means that they have a lower activation energy both for manufacturing AND FOR FAILURE. So they use less energy to make but that also guarantees they will fail sooner during use. Physics is a bitch! BTW "GHz speeds&
