Remember that it is always half of Earth that gets sunlight. This illustrates how much of the Pacific is missing in this projection.

“solid ice” seems redundant. Did you mean “solid water” or “water ice”? Also “airborne […] that is in the gaseous state” seems redundant. At least I can’t think of a gas that’s not airborne.

The game concept sure looks interesting.

I didn’t find that in the Twitter UI and wondered why OP thought it was an AI. Thanks for sharing.

The tweet: (Is the preview working for you? For me, it’s not).

The game is called geoguessing and those who do this regularly are crazy good at it, taking into account the kind of trees you see, where the sun and shadows are, even the color of the dirt and the pavement.

Tom Scott did something similar and was frightened too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cGqEBvlmFAQ&pp=ygUSdG9tIHNjb3R0IGZvdW5kIHVz

its fantastic for development, but start a few android emulators and docker containers and I can easily run out of RAM

As I said, that’s not the regular use case for most people.

I knew this comment would be coming. I’d say that someone who doesn’t know what RAM is casually browses the web or uses office apps. These use cases don’t require 8GB, even on Windows.

Not everyone has a level of tech literacy you might wish for. People assume that Apple has good-quality products (which they do, I’m told) and buy them without doing research. Since you cannot expect everyone to be an expert in every product they buy, it’s reasonable to expect – well, at least wish for – Apple to not sell products that will be dated in 3 years.

How would you decide what “1 unit of information” is?

I wouldn’t, because I have no knowledge in the field. But since the paper hinges upon that exact definition, and “They were vague about it”, this raises the biggest red flag I’ve seen in science yet.

That’s when you set the intern’s IDE to preserve the line endings.

If that’s really what they did, it’s stupid. First, you need to find a translation for every language to ASCII, which will wildly skew the results. Second, there are many ways to express the same concept, which all vary wildly in length. Take “Hi”, 2 letters, which means exactly the same as “How are you doing?”, 14 letters.

This isn’t replacing a euphemism with another one. Dumb has a completely different meaning that’s not even close to ‘cannot speak’, while ‘mute’ conveys exactly that.

then your public key is stored in the server

Did you mean private key?

You’re making the claim that mp3 is unsupported while I listen to mp3s on my smartphone, my linux laptop and my MS laptop without issues, my friend.

I found out a long time ago that I can’t hear the difference between compression levels starting at 192kbps. So there really isn’t any use for lossless for me.

All my songs still are mp3.

I wonder what the meaning of “should not” is in this survey. A restaurant “should not” be withing 15 minutes of my home, as in “I don’t want any restaurants near me” or is it “It’s not important enough to be in the local government’s target list”?

I don’t understand the red bars the way the question is phrased now. Why wouldn’t you want a park near you?

5! == “5” (PHP & JS)

is not valid in either PHP or JS

What are the laws in the US regarding this? In Germany, this clock is clearly defective and must be repaired or replaced or refunded by the vendor at no additional charge.

Here we go again.
