Why not have: 1) One of those new blood tests that can detect XX number of cancers before any other type of screening 2) Synthesize MRNa vaccine against the detected cancer type to kill it early?

Does it require negative _mass_ or negative space-time compression? We know gravity waves exist, so space time can oscillate between 0 and N where N is positive right? Are we so sure there is not a -N < 0 < N? Not even close to an exp

No law is on the books blocking encryption. Apple needs to nut up and ship full E2EE, daring the politicians to do anything about it. Let's see how big they talk when it's their political careers on the line.

maybe this is true for vape pens, but this is certainly not the case in the home energy storage sector.

the new rack-mount LiFePO4 batteries are insane. I have multiple "server racks" with bus bars. Right now each 5KWH module is ~$1500 with fully integrated BMS and safety systems. If I need more storage I just order another one and

People talk a lot about a lot of things when it comes to energy production, but in terms of what actually happens the largest factor is $/MW in terms of new capacity in the expected timeframe. That economic force dominates all. As a pr

>It compares on-device image hashes with hashes of known CP images. No, it compares against hashes supplied by a government agency (NCMEC). Apple has no way to verify the hashes are in fact CP, as it is only re-hashing hashes.

The only acceptable solution is full E2EE for all Apple services. Nothing else is satisfactory at this point. They need to make this step to regain their user's trust.

I see where you're coming from, but Apple brought this on themselves by annoucing this invasive spyware garbage. This is what you get when you undermine your user's trust.

If done properly the agents grabbing his laptop/snatching it away from him would have severed the power connection to the battery-remove laptop locking it permanently.

Wouldn't it make sense to remove the battery on your laptop entirely? With a modified magsafe-like power cord any attempt to grab the machine hard-kills the system and RAM begins degrading immediately. Epoxy over the screw terminals wo

I disagree because that still drives demand for C/C++ developers and tool chains. Nothing new should be written in these unsafe languages.

They’re called sidewalks (for pedestrians). Bike paths are also a thing. We’ve built our society around cars, and it’s enabled a much higher quality of life. Mass transit sucks. I’ve been to pretty much every tier-I city on the planet and t
