    An RSS feed is a publication that you can subscribe to without needing to give any personal information, such as your email address.

    Website would publish their blog entries to an RSS feed so you didn’t need to keep going to their website, or give your email address to get it sent to you that way.

    RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication.




  • I’ve been thinking about this, in conjunction with quantum computing and AGI for some time.

    If AI follows anything like Moore’s Law, I don’t think it will be too long (decades) before we’ll be breaching the limit of 64bit, and we would need to go one way or another.

    That said, based on the above, 99%+ of our existing jobs would have likely been fully automated, so the world would likely be a very different place, and 128bit computing likely would stand out as too big of an achievement.











  • Is it absolutely 0% or is it 0% with a $10/month administration fee? If the former, don’t pay it off early, just set up a standing order/direct debit and let it pay itself down. If the latter, you need to calculate the comparison rate (which will get higher the closer you get to zero balance), and work out what the break even is. Then carry on paying until you hit the point that the effective interest is greater than the interest on your savings account and at that point pay it off in full.
