So... a dehumidifier with a solar panel?

I think it might still be too soon to tell with vaccines. A lot of information from last year regarding effective treatment by using monoclonal antibodies to help combat patients actively experiencing a cytokine storm though.

Production scale Level 5, full autonomous is still many years away. Most people will be happy with Level 3/4 regardless, and those are still better/safer than most of the distracted drivers on the road today.

Genuinely curious why your posts are being downvoted?

Change the display size and also decrease font size far smaller than iPhone allows.

You've pinned a comment at the top arguing against "nationalistic flamewar" type comments. Fair enough, however your own moderating choices seem to paint you as biased in this regard. Why is there an implied double standard for those who post vs. those who moderate/admin?

In an April speech in New York, FBI director Christopher Wray described the reason for the scrutiny of ethnic Chinese scientists. “China has pioneered a societal approach to stealing innovation in any way it can from a wide array of busi­ness­es, universities and organisations,” he told the Council on Foreign Relations. Every­one’s in on it, Wray said: China’s intelligence services; its state-owned and what he called “ostensibly” private enter­prises; and the 130,000 Chinese graduate students and researchers who work and study in the US every year. “Put plainly, China seems determined to steal its way up the economic ladder at our expense.”

This has been going since long before the Trump administration, probably all the way back to the Clinton one.

China needs to adjust their official target of 6-6.5% GDP growth per year - it is completely unsustainable and has caused far too many risks to be taken in order to maintain it.

Unless they want the bubble to pop? I can't imagine the social upheaval it would cause there (and throughout the rest of the world)

Too many candidates on stage. Each of those candidates is prepped to only drop soundbites... best soundbite of the night wins the "debate".

According to OECD DAC statistics, since aid began in the 1960s donors have given a grand total of $502 billion to sub-Saharan Africa, which is worth about $866 billion in today's prices.

Aid has only made things worse for Africa and the world as a whole.

This problem has been known for decades. As of April 2019, 56.1% of the world's population has internet access. Do you think it is acceptable for a major transit ISP to have no basic filters in 2019 let alone implement RPKI?

Can you explain what part of the Cloudflare statement you consider to be posturing? A cursory review of the BGP announcements referenced in the article are pretty clear. Facts are facts regardless of how the message is delivered.

Did you also acquire an ASCAP/BMI license for the music-on-hold? A lot of people are unaware that is classified as a public performance of the music and requires a license. Unless you are playing royalty-free music, in which case you are fine.

Running piAware for flight tracking

An FAA Qualified Level simulator can easily cost six figures, no one is suggesting a VR simulator is going to replace it - however once you've tried a sim in VR you'd likely never want anything else again.

I'll be so disappointed if it does not have native support for VR. My Rift has been gathering dust, when I first bought it all I could think about was a great flight sim... been waiting so long now.

Elite universities have been more than complicit in this as well, especially when they can charge such a premium on "international student" tuition. It is also why they so often look the other way when those students bring their cultural values on things like cheating with them. No one dares admit it for fear of being labeled racist or xenophobic.

Interesting article, yet not a single mention of what area of study and degree each of those 3 examples received? That is a key piece of information, I wonder why it was left out.

sells one liter of blood plasma from donors between the ages of 16 and 25 for $8,000, according to its website.

I would be very curious to know what they typically paid the donor in that transaction.

Always wondered what would happen if someone was to happen to have every valid US/CAN number in their contact list (all 3-4 billion), since WhatsApp doesn't validate you actually know the contact just that you have their phone number.

Just what the world needs right now, an IPO that will generate a lot of funds back to SA to cover their deficits/debts - some of which inevitably goes to financing terrorism.

Some people are much more enlightened in this day and age but history has taught us that war is inevitable. We are a violent species, and eventually chance prevails and enough mistakes are made to trigger something unstoppable.

May, mostly with dependencies on who they steal the IP from.

The EU is not a sovereign country, its political and economic union. The US is under no obligation to accept all 28-member countries as equal.

Dyn aside, xTbps DDOS is the new norm.

Expect more of this in the near future, single-source infrastructure is becoming a huge liability (not that it wasn't before). I wonder what impact on SLAs it will have when cloud services providers are taken down - will they honor their SLAs or inject DDOS clauses into them to shield themselves. You won't see many standing up to multi-Tbps attacks, at least for the moment.

Investment in coastal flood prevention technology for major city centers that can legitimately be helped. Places below sea level today - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_places_on_land_with_el... - need to be abandoned.

So much this - but even worse - a particular unicorn who's primary business is identity management. DNS glue records ALL point to AWS/Route53, actual zone file NS records ALL point to Dyn. I looked at that and went WTF were you thinking?!?! It's one thing to give yourself a SPOF, but why would you give yourself 2 SPOFs?

Self-aware != Self-hating

They'd probably look at us (for food) the way most people look at food currently coming out of China. Polluted garbage.
