I have this same problem! Except that it came from my SecretLabs chair.

I have a similar weird behavior where if I push in or out my chair from under my computer desk, my USB devices would disconnect and reconnect. My wild guess is that my secretlabs chair has some sort of magnet that’s causing it.

Like I said, I'm out of the loop. Thanks for the explanation!

I'm out of the loop. Why is single core performance important, since no one (I think) buys a multi-core CPU just to limit themselves to using only 1 core?

Safari is removing (or removed already?) DNT simply because websites are still tracking visitors regardless if DNT was enabled or not.

Just wondering, is it possible to use a big enough mirror and just reflect sunlight to do the same thing? Though this only means satellites can only be destroyed during daytime.

Is Boeing taking DLC advice from EA now?

The timing of this article feels like it was written in response to Singapore banning a Swedish black metal band from performing at the very last minute.

I don't think it's right to say data is in the ocean though. They are stored in datacenters on land. And they travel through the ocean. Unless when we start putting more of these datacenters in the ocean like how some company has been experimenting with.

What if it was a legitimate emergency?

Like if someone used your number as an emergency contact. Or some hospital in the world trying to contact you because someone you know got hospitalized (touch wood).

VR install base is small, until Steam starts selling VR Porn video games.

Porn has a huge influence on technology. I won't be surprised if within the next few days, there's a huge surge on VR headset sales.

I made a subreddit for anyone to upload any file and the first person who accesses the link gets to download it.

Singapore, if it helps, I'm using an iPhone and have the language settings set to Japanese.

The data for LTC doesn't seem to load. All the other default 3 cryptocurrencies loaded.

I have a SaaS product hosted in Singapore. We have complaints from our China clients about it being slow so we had to setup another production environment in China.

It's not about the price, it's about the Great Firewall of China.

What is this dating thing everyone seems to be talking about?

Silly question here, why were the account books buried instead of burned? Do the books have any use in future if they never got caught?

My bad, for not understanding how it works.

If a few guys ran a Synology NAS with terabytes of dummy data, let the ransomware do it's job, rinse and repeat, would we be able to inflict a huge storage bill on the datanappers? If their storage limit got maxed out, would it stop the ransomware from working?

Should we be concerned that they are looking at our email contents in order to build this system?

  We did a lot of research, looked at all the variations of
  email that passes through Mailgun

I would guess they have devices that detect light and sound. When the device detects a flash, it will start a timer and wait for the sound, which ends the timer.

Then based on the speed of sound, they can estimate the distance of the strike.

With many of these devices all over the place recording the data, using math, they can pinpoint the location of where the strike was.

From this article, 12 minors in the Fukushima prefecture have been confirmed to have thyroid cancer. Which usually strikes 1 to 2 for every million.

You're giving up too easily.

If someone has already implemented your idea and built a business around it, analyze their business and see if you can provide something even better (it's also a good learning process anyway).

There's no rule stating you can't challenge them for a share of the market (or is there?).

Sounds like the type of code Yoda would write if he codes.

I'm from Singapore so some of the points below may not apply to you but here's what I do in case it helps.

I bought an iOS app which I use to track my income and expenses. This doesn't help me save money except track how much I've spent on my credit cards so I don't overspend and will have enough money to pay back the banks at the end of every month and not incur any interest.

Credit cards are useful for getting discounts on things. I get a 5% discount when I shop for groceries at a particular store. When the annual fee comes, I call up the bank and ask for a waiver. They usually agree to waive it off.

I have 2 bank accounts. One which is where I use for spending on everyday needs and depositing my salary. The second one is for savings. I setup my first bank account to automatically transfer $500 every month to this savings account. This recurring transfer is also setup on the iOS app I mentioned earlier.

On google docs, I noted down what my regular expenses are, like transport, food, household bills. So I know how much extra I will have after those.

Don't be tricked by discounts that tell you how much you save if you buy that product. You save more money not buying it. It's different if the product is a daily neccessity or you think will be beneficial.

If I were you, I'd build up a substantial amount of savings first before investing. An amount that will allow me to go jobless for a few months.

Or allow me to do things that's beneficial to myself in the long run such as buying a camera to learn about photography. It's what they call "investing in yourself"

Probably not for the Asia Pacific Singapore region.

Few months ago, the on demand hourly price for a small instance is 0.085, now it's 0.09.

There's definitely a significant decrease for reserved small instances.

Edit: Reserved micro instances also went up.
