Let’s say you use a “plus” formatted email, I.e [email protected]

Then when you receive spam/unsolicited marketing emails, you can see to which email the spam was sent, and therefore which company sold your data.

This suggests the only way to keep this behaviour is to have your own email hosted and use a truly different email per service.

I understand that curtailment is needed to incentivise private businesses to invest in wind when the output and demand can’t be correlated, but if the government owned the wind farms then it wouldn’t matter if we wasted right? We could just always be overproducing and wouldn’t have to pay for it.

He didn’t achieve 2MH/s on his MacBook. That was the authors estimate of what you could achieve on a multi-GPU setup, it was only around ~1KH/s on the MacBook.

They do have stuff inside them though, so I'm not suggesting they make it heavier but having the required electronics does take up space that can be otherwise utilised.

iGeneration is a long established term for Gen Z. This author among many others claims to have coined the moniker but has done so since at least 2006.

I don't know if it's just me but hamburger menus that appear/disappear on hover seems very frustrating to use for me, it's especially obvious on this where the font size is so small.

I find it fiddly to delete/mark as completed as the slightest missed movement means I have to start again.

70?

What do you like about it?

For general use it seems as if it'll be something that makes no difference to my day-to-day usage of my computer other than a warm fuzzy feeling that the underlying protocol is "right".

Highly recommend the book 'Wisdom of Insecurity' by Alan Watts. This article touches on the search for an immutable self but it doesn't quite make the leap that there isn't one and that the advice to "be yourself" is never going to bring any psychological satisfaction.

To keep your account secure, turn on Javascript?? If anything is making your web browsing less secure, it's JS.

I don't particularly care that Google isn't letting you sign in without JS, but the message is just plain wrong..

That's pathetic... it's such a shame Twitter intentionally crippled their API because the platform is so well suited for 3rd party apps

How can it hit the rate limit error so quickly? From the output in my terminal it is really slow...

In what way is the article not scummy as hell? You shouldn't waste Jenkins server time with this...

Anyone had any luck with Firefox on any system?

Haha, it was just the attitude I'm seeing suggests that we're somehow at the behest of Mozilla engineers and we just have to wait, but that's one of the great benefits of open source, we really aren't.

And I haven't looked but I imagine changing the encryption algo isn't a huge task, I wasn't suggesting that a non-Mozilla worker implement something huge like zaarn's suggestion, which fwiw I think is awesome as I don't use FF built-in password manager and find it just gets in the way.

Since Firefox is open source, instead of just waiting for Mozilla engineers to get around to it, couldn't someone just open a pull request?

From what I can tell they used verbal & numerical reasoning tests, which does to some degree fit a definition of intelligence.

It doesn't measure anything well rounded about a person and it makes me pretty uncomfortable to think this kind of thing could actually be used to divide people.

In what way would it noticeably differ from the LLVM IR then?

If you have a Mac, Textual is a great IRC client although their upgrade policy is a bit frustrating, in that upgrades don't seem to be free for life, only discounted.

I wouldn't recommend Icarus Verilog, it's not a very good simulator. You're much better off downloading either the free Altera/IntelFPGA copy of Modelsim or using the free version of Xilinx's Vivado.

The DE10 Nano is a great board though, huge FPGA that can hold big designs and the HPS gives you a lot of extra capabilities.

This is a false equivalence. I think it's much more like, Person A is a nazi and killed someone after being indoctrinated by violent nazi rhetoric, therefore we should stop allowing violent nazi rhetoric to be spread.

And even then it's not actually that, because a private company has decided to stop hosting the content, the government/law enforcement was never involved.

In the same way that some days I am happy and other days I'm sad, doesn't mean that my mood is choice.

Good to know you can steal money from these employees with a handshake.

If you use Vim, you can `set list` and set the `listchars` to something useful for you.

I think it's important to think about power dynamics, if you're in a position where you have authority/power/control in any way over that person it's not appropriate for you to be asking them out, pretty much period. No matter whether it's a man or a woman doing the asking.

Is there a way to swing this in a way which this is not contributing to an already exploitative and (primarily) sexist industry?

I also fail to see how such a system could combat abuse of those working either.

> While the ICO found the deal to be illegal, it has no plans to punish the Royal Free or DeepMind.

What the hell? Why do we let Google get away with this.

Again, the ARM benchmarks/demos recently are very impressive but there is no way they'll be able to match the higher end Xeon's, if for no other reason than you have to do x86 emulation.

I think they'll definitely be able to take some market share from Intel at the lower-end, but they won't be going anywhere any time soon.

This is nowhere near the end of Intel, performance desktops and servers will still be running Intel processors for many years to come, ARM simply cannot match the performance - despite how impressive that demo video might look.

Intel was already dead in the water for mobile so I doubt they're too bothered.
