You still can have fun, but first drink verification can.

Apple is trying hard to destroy the concept of an "Album"

Why though? Honest question.

You could nuke it though. Throw a bunch of nukes in a line and you are good to go. :D

I don't know if you're joking or not but there were tactical demolition nukes in the 60's. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special_Atomic_Demolition_Mu...

Unless they, somehow, rip a hole in the hull. That would be FUBAR.

Languages evolving and borrowing good ideas from each other* is not the same thing as hyperbolically sneering at some of the most popular programming languages in the world because they're supposedly all converging into one single language, which they never were doing and never will do.

And yet PHP, Java and C# MVC web apps looks all the same in both syntax and structure. Same syntax for interfaces, classes, namespaces, entity models, query builders, controllers, views and so on. A modern Symfony application looks almost the same as a Spring one.

// #include <stdlib.h> import "C"

is probably the coolest and easiest ways to use C libraries I've seen.

You should see Zig's interoperability.

Surely there must be some reports of the outage by now?

Not everyone is AWS. There's a lot of obscure software providers nobody cares when they're down.

YMMV, but I tried to self-study out of "Art of Electronics" and I ended up giving up because I didn't feel like I was getting the fundamental basic circuit analysis skills that I needed to actually comprehend everything they were doing. The difficulty level ramped up very quickly, at least for me.

Same here. "Practical electronics for inventors" ended up being way more approachable.

How does La Taverne compare to Redux Toolkit which already removes a lot o boilerplate and includes redux thunk

Jews seek refuge from Antisemitism in their historic homeland, immediately get attacked by 7 nations. But this is all their fault, of course.

Of course. That's what happens when you unilaterally found a country on someone's else historic homeland and start an apartheid state.

Right, all these Jews in Israel are using "many dirty tricks". Thanks for demonstrating, once again, that biased attacks against Israel are heavily laced with Antisemitism.

Ah yes, the antisemitism card. Obviously.

Note that genocide means the (attempted) deliberate and systematic destruction of a racial, political, or cultural group[0], shooting civilians deliberately or accidentally is not genocide.

That's semantics. Endless wars without a purpose and thousands of death civilians, what's the difference?. Drone flattened a school? Though shit. It's war so you cant call it genocide.

So why doesn't China allow independent investigations into what's really taking place? Maybe if they weren't hiding the truth people wouldn't be so quick to fill in the holes with their own stories.

Why they should? The burden of proof is on the accusers. "Independent" investigation guarantees nothing. Eg WMD in Iraq.

Reminds me of computer virus research in the 90's. "we've found the polymorphic encryption algorithm...". Ok? That's not akin to discover some function on a biological virus. It's just discovering other (even worse, contemporary) people's work. Just like a "reaction" YouTube video, it adds nothing new.

Yeah it's eight 0 but nobody knows in what order they are. That's the top secret part.

All we need is artificial mass.

That's doesn't make sense.

You can cite your body.

Anecdotal evidence.

Also, if the mind is fully integrated with the body, how you explain seemingly inconsistent states that seems to work just fine. Eg., people with ALS or quadriplegic or severely injured or mutilated. If the mind can perfectly works without a perfectly abled body, where's this mind body connection? Also, where's such connection in a comatose brain with a completely funcional body? Maybe I misunderstood what this mind body connection is supposed to be.

Even over a population center, it’s a local problem.

Local? An impact in any large city with financial or industrial hubs would have global scale effects. NYC, Tokio, Shenzhen, London, Beijing, Shanghai. Throw a rock at any of those and the world will devolve into chaos.

In the future you'll get paid for your personal data.

Virtual Meeseeks. What could possibly go wrong.

You're right. Shame on me.

Author forgot an easy one: death by strangelet catalyzation

If it was lab created then you know some group intentionally or through their negligence caused millions and millions of people to die.

Just 2.4 millions as today. Not millions and millions. This is not 1918 flu levels (yet).

Oh ok. So, this 10B are just people buying and selling BTC? It seems the author is fighting BS with more BS.

There's levels of usefulness. Not dissing your argument but gold is still way more useful. There's has to be better ways to solve the problem you mention. Like they say, Bitcoin is a solution looking for a problem.

What's your point? Gold is useful. One of the most versatile metals. You can find gold almost en every electronics, or medical implants, or scientific equipment, or in space telescopes. BTC isn't even useful data. It's just a number. What an utterly disingenuous comparison.

VISA handles $30B/day Mastercard handles $11B/day Bitcoin handles $10B/day

Impressed. I didn't know Bitcoin transactions accounted for such huge volume almost as large as MasterCard. I use MC almost every day for almost everything. Is there people like, entirely living with BTC?

After a few days of conscious effort, yesterday I remembered his first name spontaneously and then suddenly his last name too.

A background process completing and notifying the result to the frontend.

Discovering alien tech in an interstellar vessel would be an unprecedented technological breakthrough bigger than anything we could be making now. Bigger than GPS for sure. It doesn't even has to be more advanced than ours.

If that sounds ridiculous to you I suggest you're not thinking realistically about aliens, you are living in the star trek universe.

How can anyone think realistically about aliens in any way whatsoever? There's absolutely zero evidence of extraterrestrial life, let alone intelligence. Anyone can think whatever they please about aliens and that would be as real as what you think. We have zero clue about alien physiology, psychology, science, culture, technology, etc.

I ask which is more realistic?

All of them. None. We can't know. It's a question about an unobserved phenomenon.
