I can't see any obvious keywords there, it would be very telling to be able to determine what theye filtering on, if we had enough unredacted/redacted pairs to find out

I have narcolepsy so it'd happen uncontrollably, usually when sitting still without talking or moving. Like in a large meeting or presentation where I don't have an active part to play. Sometimes a sympathetic colleague would nudge me awake. Somewhat career limiting but I was stuck with it for 30 years. I started on medication a year ago and it has been much improved.

I'd look to Swiss army knives for inspiration. Knife, screwdriver, scissors, pliers. A light. Someone said phone holder.. I'd have the phone embedded in the arm, positioned to be easy to see and access. Have the lock screen be various health stats: heart rate, Vmax, Time. Usb charging port... Be able to both charge the arm, and charge devices from the arm, maybe with a retractable cable ala cyberpunk 2077. Camera in a fingertip, ideally connected to XR glasses, so I can see behind or under things easily, able to be a microscope. Electric arc lighter in another fingertip.

TIL, thank you!

My understanding was that the law was changed in the US so student loans couldn't be wiped by bankruptcy, and the government then increased how much it could loan due to the security. Tuitions rose to meet the new supply.

As in, I wish to be the one who ends all wars. They only end when I stop them. Each one, individually.

Facebook started out as invite only for a few years so they might have been looking to emulate its early trajectory. Gmail also started that way.

Note that Crimea is not counted as Ukrainian in this map. Makes you wonder.

Energy storage. We could already produce all the power we need and more using solar power, the problem is that we can't store it in an efficient energy dense form. The word efficient there is doing some heavy lifting. It needs be comparable or better than our methods today in terms of cost, safety, energy density, climate impact. If we could solve energy storage, it'd change society and technology dramatically.

I think an additional effect is that, the drop in pressure causes any liquids exposed to it to vaporise, which is an exothermic process, and it's a race to see whether it boils off entirely or the inner part freezes to solid from the drop in temperature through conduction. So the immediate surface of your body would either dry out or flash freeze but the inner part take a while to solidify.

Why there is any ice in space and it doesn't just sublimate away over time I'm not sure.

I can pop my ears whenever I want, like someone else mentioned. Handy on flights, but I haven't been able to teach my kids how. If I forget to blink for a bit and then blink involuntarily when my eyes itch, my jaw snaps shut also involuntarily, causing my teeth to snap together. I can roll my tongue, which is apparently a genetic thing. I can hear high frequency sounds, like bats, and rodent repellents. It can be painfully loud when noone else around me can hear them, so they have a degree of disbelief if I mention it.

Think they meant run Windows in a VM if you need it
