I want to make a browser plugin that runs a full Linux VM with OpenJDK and runs Java applications sandboxed in its own full OS. That way you get the full Java capabilities and can pass through hardware that you want, or maybe give it permissions like mobile apps. Could also run C#, native code, etc.

This looks really interesting. I'm fascinated by gender dichotomy and how different my experiences would be with just a different chromosome.

Someone who made millions from Bitcoin or some nonsense please give this guy a million dollars. There needs to be some secret fund for people like this. It's obviously not a fair reparation but it's something.

I agree. There is huge potential in a non-exploitative 1:1 substitute.

Do you have any old phones that you synced with POP3? Windows Mobile? Outlook or Windows Mail? Ever connect it to Thunderbird? (Be careful with anything IMAP, check offline) Can you contact the sender of the email and see if they can get a copy from their sent archive? Ever download a Google Takeout archive? Try Google Takeout anyway? Try POP3 sync, then reset POP3 status and resync?

This is awesome! I have notebooks full of very messy stuff which I've kept waiting for a service just like this someday. I hope it gets really good. Can't wait!

This is why we need more anti-aging and longevity research. Reproduction is obsolete.

For anyone who hasn't yet seen it, check out Jonathan Blow's Jai language, it is fantastic!

I should have specified: using technology like 3D printed housing and automated vertical farming in order to make it cost effective or negligible, or subsidized like roads.

It seems to me we have the tech to provide good solutions, it just needs to be applied.

I believe we need free housing and food for people who are in difficult emotional situations so they aren't desperate enough to commit crimes.

The problem I see with these kinds of housing developments is that you're taking stressed out people with problems and sticking them in small boxes very close together. That's going to compound social stress and amplify bad influences. Something like 3D printed housing seems better to me because you could give each person an entire house to themselves and give them enough of their own territory to where they would feel secure and comfortable.

I really enjoyed this article! I believe we should produce mass amounts of cheap 3D printed housing that anyone can afford with a part time minimum wage job, and then fill in the labor gaps with general purpose artificial intelligence and robotics. Then people can chill out and ignore the more dystopian aspects of society and instead enjoy this wonderful resource of infinite education and entertainment we've created. I think the answer lies in making a good enough standard of living the default for everyone and then there will be less negativity in the world.

Hey, it's true! I thought it was cute.

I am also Time Magazine's 2006 Person Of The Year.

This laptop is awesome! I hope they will update the removable dynamic hinge model as well, I really liked it.

I do have some concern that Windows S may be another step towards the "boiling the frogs" that Tim Sweeney was warning about. I think he is very wise in saying we should be wary of Microsoft gradually closing Windows down as a platform.

Shameless plug for my game that I've been working on for a long time: https://bobsgame.itch.io/bobs-game-puzzle-game

Terry's "schizophrenia" just means he perceives reality differently than you do. The "word salad" is actually not random nonsense. Your mind is perfectly trained to value political correctness and money, and so you find his thoughts nonsensical or abhorrent. Terry's mind has developed to value art and speaking the truth as he perceives it without any social filter. What you are seeing is a true artist with a perception of reality so different from your own that you don't comprehend it as rational. If you read it carefully, you'll realize everything he says is perfectly rational, he knows perfectly well what he's saying, and racist or not, from a certain perspective there is reason to it.

Imagine you are talking to someone who has been living in the wilderness for a long time, who has stumbled back into civilization and has gained a reputation for being a crazy person, and they point at a cave and say "bear hole makes the rain go away!" and becomes very frustrated that nobody bothers to try and understand them (and instead just repeats the popular opinion about how they are crazy). Are they actually speaking nonsense? I think that's what [some] schizophrenia actually is.

I've got 4 instances open right now. Thanks, Simon and co!

I think Mr. Sweeney's concern is wise and it's good that he is voicing his opinion on the matter. It does appear that Microsoft is moving in the direction of only allowing UWP apps from the Windows Store by default, but not yet Win32 programs.[1] It could eventually become the case that UWP apps are more common than Win32 programs, and/or Microsoft may choose to distribute Win32 programs through the store and disallow third party downloads by default.

Would it be possible to apply machine learning to the human genome to discover other therapies similar to this one? I'm sure there are groups working on something similar, does anyone know of any offhand?

I really hope they open source the NT kernel, or at least part of it. This makes me really excited about the future of Windows!

I really want to work on this!

Can we clone a Neanderthal yet?

Does anyone know what the tech used is?

I think I'll learn it on my own for now and try again next year!

I'm a self taught somewhat prolific game developer and super interested in AI but have a poor mathematics background, think there's any chance?

Vivaldi is awesome! Thank you Vivaldi team!

I am super excited for the self driving Autopilot to be enabled! I'd love to be able to buy a Tesla for my parents.

Proof of life, please.

It will be OK. I shouldn't have posted that. I think Trump will be more reasonable about it during his campaign and he said it at a time when there was less data and less certainty about the issue, so it's not fair to take it out of context.
