I tried taking L-Theanine for about 5 days. 30 minutes after taking it each day, I would get very nauseous and usually throw up. I tried varying the dosage from 200mg down to 100mg and then 75mg, I would still get the nausea, no matter if

I'm confused. This town is in South Dakota, but the house linked to in the article, from Silence of the Lambs, is in Pennsylvania.

I've only been to India once, so obviously anything I say should be treated as purely anecdotal. In rural Karnataka, I did notice, that although literacy rates (writing/reading) weren't nearly as high among the poorest popul

20 kW? Wow. I wonder what the future holds; 20kW is just an order of magnitude higher than you can draw from a normal 20 amp socket. I want a mips64 supercomputer in my basement.

Northeastern (my school, currently...) uses it as well. A quick search leads me to believe many schools do. Wonderful learning tool. Also fun to try to port to non-x86 :)

I have no idea. By your phrasing, it sounds like you might? I'd be interested in being enlightened as to the state of adherence to radiation safety standards by cell phones.

That alone was enough to make me close the page. No option to send a CV or anything, just a "Sign in with LinkedIn" button.

Huh. It's running perfectly fine on my 2009-era thinkpad x201 (i5 with Intel integrated graphics...) Are you using the Intel driver, with mesa-libgl? I'm viewing it in Firefox on Arch linux.

Interesting. I do worry about the security implications, especially after watching this talk[0] about the security of Estonia's e-voting system. The government does not seem to have a wonderful sense of how to handle information secu

Oh, get a few of these[0]. They are pretty flimsy, but cheap (I've seen them for sale on eBay and various sites like aliexpress for ~20 euro-ish before. They sure hold a charge; I've had 9 hours of constant use before (of course

System76 just rebrands Clevo laptops and installs Ubuntu on them, and host their own PPA to deal with system-specific drivers. In my experience, the laptops aren't any more linux-friendly than your average laptop (certainly less than

I would be interested in this as well. Especially with video lectures. Did you manage to find anything? I haven't managed to except for some one-off intros.

The compiler isn't very 'user-friendly', but if you're literally looking for "Haskell on the JVM" and don't care about speed, Frege is a lot of fun once you get used to it. Impure functions/variables

I know nothing about silicon fab, but I can't help but wonder how they mitigate the effects of quantum tunneling at such a small scale?

One might almost imagine Kung Fury was heavily inspired by Danger 5. At around 7:30 in the YouTube video, they add Hitler. And then he shoots the phone; a trope memorably used in Danger 5. Also, the cop with the triceratops head - people

You could probably do it with some sort of Gallium alloy, safer than mercury and more conductive. But I seem to remember them being more viscous? Maybe you could use some sort of Teflon coated radio-penetrable container and a peristaltic p

I suspect you're getting downvoted for the last third of your comment. The first two thirds alone might have had the opposite effect.

Almost anywhere in Europe and the US. If people are out at night drinking and there aren't easily accessible public toilets, then there really isn't much of an option for non-public urination.
