Hypersonic flight environments are very, very difficult to replicate in wind tunnels. We can replicate portions of the environment, but due to the highly coupled nature of the responses seen by flight vehicles at these speeds, there's always a tradeoff. To really understand what's going on, you need high enthalpy, high pressure, high Mach number flow for a reasonably long period of time. Experimental scaling is only so helpful depending on what you're trying to investigate. For a fully coupled response, you basically end up with a scaling ratio of 1 since the different physics clash when trying to scale the many parameters you need to achieve similarity. Realistically, flight test is the only way to truly get the conditions and response you need, but that's very expensive and risky and you can't build a huge factor of safety into the vehicle or it won't be able to meet the needed performance. Instead, we use a combination of simulation tools and targeted experiments to try and reduce the risk/cost for flight tests.

Precisely how I felt.

I was reading and hoping to come across a quote from Nolan or Lucas saying how they were influenced by Hinduism and were bringing it to their movies.

Instead I got 'Hindus believed in something like this for thousands of years, so if Hollywood makes a movie that touches on this theme, it's due to Hinduism'.

I'd even be inclined to buy it if the ideas he mentioned were uniquely Hindu (like reincarnation) and not generic New-Age stuff that people all over may believe.
I don't think that's true. You need immersion for different reasons as well: it exposes you to all the variations that people use rather than just one speaker and a range of voices and vocabularies, it also makes it harder for you to switch back to your native tongue temporarily. All of these will help you tremendously.

There a super annoying issue with iMessages on Yosemite where the first time you click on the iMessages window, it doesn't gain focus properly (and you can't start typing a message), and the second time you click on it, the entire window changes position by the delta between the top-left corner and the spot where you click the second time.

It makes the whole experience of using iMessages very aggravating. The whole "use OS X for all messages including SMS" thing is one of their key marketing messages, and it's broken on my Macbook and on my iMac.

I logged a bug for it and was told it was a duplicate of another one already in the queue, which was well over a month ago. It seems like something that should be relatively easy to fix. That it hasn't been tells me that there is likely a very large list of bugs in a similar category (or worse), so they just haven't gotten to this one yet.

My main gripe with the macOS fullscreen mode is that there's no way to force the non-fullscreen desktop to stay in one place. If something in a fullscreen app pulls up the desktop (for instance, running an installer you just downloaded), the desktop gets moved to the next position. I want to force it to stay in one place (or, ideally, have a gesture or hotkey to switch between my fullscreen windows and the desktop). I could do this with most of the tiled WMs I've used.

Yes, the limitations are due to device certification under part 15. However, this is in no way an implied license, as "license" has specific meaning within the context of various parts of the FCC regulations. Part 15 covers unlicensed radiators, so essentially "licensed" and "part 15" are antonyms. This is most significant in that licensing almost always implies some degree of protection from interference (although it may be rather limited), while part 15 devices receive no such protection... when someone interferes with your WiFi, you cannot complain to the FCC (there's some recourse related to the legality of devices, but you cannot for example seek a license modification to address the interference as licensed users generally can to some degree). The existence of "soft licensed" services such as the part 95 services somewhat complicates this as there are services like family radio service (part 95B) that are "licensed by rule," meaning that there is an implicit license, but that somewhat illustrates the point: part 95B radios like the common consumer Motorolas and Midlands are implicitly licensed, WiFi is not! FRS has (limited) regulatory protection from interference, WiFi does not. FRS has limitations on nature of usage, Part 15 has none, but the device must be certified to meet part 15 specs for emissions.

The whole "part 15" thing gets more into device certification, which I mentioned in the post I will discuss in the future as it's a topic all of its own. The history of part 15 device certification is closely related to the history of the ISM bands in some ways, but they are not 1:1, as part 15 covers both unintentional/incidental radiators (essentially all electronic devices) as well as intentional radiators which do not have a license... microwave ovens and WiFi are the quintessential examples of the latter.

It is of course obvious that RF spectrum belongs to the public, but in the US it is regulated by both the FCC and the NTIA depending on the user and the importance of the ITU cannot be understated as many of these services have at least partial international coordination. Certain radio licenses in the US will also require the approval of either Industry Canada or Mexico's IFT, although this is required under FCC regulations some of which implement treaty obligations. That said, I live in the US and am not a radio technician in the federal government (which is generally exempt from FCC regulations), so I tend to stick to what I know best: 47 CFR! It's also important to understand that in most cases the FCC does not coordinate spectrum usage on a level more granular than services and instead leaves it to other government agencies or private organizations, within the scope of each service. Part 90 is an interesting example, which is FCC licensed on a frequency level but coordinated by private companies for profit (the FCC just approves whatever frequency the private frequency coordinator recommends). I'll probably write on this in the future.
At half/third of the salary maybe.

Based on current US inflation rates, that’s about 4 days worth of inflation. So, you could probably blame the Fed for “stealing” that much in one swoop.

ClamAV is the one I keep seeing used on the server side. Can't speak to as of how effective it is for contemporary Linux malware, but here's a post boasting about heuristics from 10 years ago: https://blog.clamav.net/2011/03/top-5-misconceptions-about-c...

Would be interesting to see a benchmark/study evaluating it as a desktop antivirus - but arguably any server-side malware (which I assume is the majority for Linux today) also apply for a large part of Linux workstations.

As long as it is not a large enough percentage of drivers to significantly affect the service times of those riders, does it actually matter? I mean, morally I don't think they should. However, those are probably more likely to be the people who were going to cause problems like this article talks about anyways. So it would still probably result in better experience for everyone.

If 99% of drivers check that box, and it affects service times, then they will have to come up with some other option to accommodate the drivers. Prove the allergies or something, since some of them are certainly lying with prevalence being 10-20% in the US. And it would have to be a best effort, the rider with a true service animal is legally protected and a driver with allergies or fear is not a legal reason to reject service altogether.
The point is that effective tax rates can be really subtle.

For instance, you could have a country change what it considers to be “profit” so that you’re paying $2 on $100 of revenue, whereas in the neighboring country you’d be paying $6. Same nominal tax rate, different effective tax rates.

There are even more ways to play this: “Sure, we tax you at the required 20%, but you can then direct how those funds are used to reduce costs you’d otherwise have to pay directly.”

And this happens a ton— see the WTO and “effective” but not nominal tariffs.

They kind of intentionally danced around that question with 'are APIs copyrightable'.

Because here it's allowable for a product that isn't competing, and is being leveraged for interoperability/ease of users to adopt (rather than for how clean/clever it is).

What if someone had copied Stripe early on, though? Stripe's big claim at launch was "payment processing in 7 lines of Javascript" or similar.

Brazil is such a big and diverse country that any state seems like a different country. We have influence from Portugal, Holland [1], France, Germany, Italy, Africa, Japan and many other places.

Put a string in the app that controls the title, subtitle, or other highly noticeable aspect of the app. Do a few bug fixes as well.

submit your app to Apple.

Wait a few weeks for enough users to download it, toggle the switch, and put in some text string that is profane. Make sure your servers detect your app from the Users Agent of the fake one.

Apple will pull the fake one, and block their account, in action to keeping an eye on them.
People in the north of England are said to be warmer and friendlier than those in the south. The north was mostly industrial and rural whilst the south has London's financial district and the Home Counties where the "posh" live. I say was because its a lot more homogenized now and there's less industry.

Hi,

Your strongest point is competition, but competition only works fully for economically rational agents, which we are not.

Regulations are making my point stronger: they exist because without them the clients would be defenseless.

I took Caltech/Coursera class "Principles of Economics for Scientists" this winter. I was struck by how lean and clear the concepts are once you bother to write them down mathematically. Much better than the hand-wavy explanations I had heard before.

I also took it a step further, and wrote them down as code. When you can explain something to a computer you know you have understood it; and you may even end up with something that other people can understand and play with. I believe something along the lines of what I ended up with (https://github.com/juanre/econopy) might be profitably used to teach economics to CS-type students.

As far as economics math not representing reality: I think it's obvious enough that humans don't behave the way these equations assume. However, they are a great framework from which to think about how humans actually behave.

One of the odd inconsistencies that I've never found a good answer to is why puts writes a string and a newline, but fputs doesn't write a newline. Likewise, and more problematic, is gets vs fgets --- the latter has a buffer length parameter, while the former doesn't and thus always leave the possibility of overflow. On the other hand, fprintf and printf, fscanf and scanf are consistent.

Nowhere is building enough housing for growth. In low cost of living places, chances are if you look at population data, the metro region has been stagnant for decades which has alleviated pressure on supply. In any area with growth at all, prices rise because we don't build actual dense housing like we did before WWII (when row houses and mixed use development in walking distance to frequent public transit were the norm everywhere from Manhattan to Los Angeles to downtown Boise, Idaho). We build either tracts of single family homes by clearcutting wildlands adjacent to freeways, or far too little apartments in a single 4-5 story building spanning an entire city block.

In comparison to a block of 4-5 story row homes, these apartment builds are a compromise and will come back to bite planners in the coming decades as construction costs continue to rise. Since it's a single building, you can't redevelop this structure without leveling the entire block. That makes it impossible to do unless you are a deep pocketed development corporation, versus a row house that could be owned outright by an individual and redeveloped by that individual to meet the market demand of the growing city.
I agree with a lot of the points you make.

> Are you holding the view that productive society can’t exist without allocation of capital? Cause the 1000s of years of evidence to the contrary disagrees with you.

Why do you believe that capital was not allocated for 1000s of years? This seems absurd, and I’m not sure how to charitably interpret this. Do you think that humans were unthinking automatons until recently? When the Egyptians built the pyramids, that was capital allocation.

> Value generation doesn’t require capital, or capitalist.

This is generally speaking, false. Value generation does indeed require capital allocation. Otherwise there would be no tools or raw materials with which to generate value.

> Someone doesn’t need to OWN the results of other people’s work.

Ownership is a social construct that determines who is entitled to use of a thing. Without that social arrangement, then people will just fight over stuff. This is why animals evolved territoriality.

I’m a big fan of having a robust social welfare system, but we need to acknowledge realities that maybe we don’t prefer to acknowledge. Many people on welfare are idle don’t do anything meaningful with their time. The response to that isn’t necessarily to cut welfare. It could mean taking a bigger picture look at society to see how changes have affected peoples’ abilities to have meaningful lives and civic engagement without work.

When it comes to optimization, there's a useful adage: make it work, then make it fast. Secure should really be seen as a necessary component of correct (and that it often isn't is a testament to the failure of our profession).

In that vein, the default random should be cryptographically-secure, with all the logic necessary to actually effect that security (e.g., not reusing seeds after a call to fork). You can also go ahead and provide an insecure random as well, but choosing the insecure random should always be something that the programmer has to go out of their way to do.
