That seems likely at first, but it'll be really exciting when that switches around and reused engines are the preferred choice for manned flights since they've been proven.

After all, you never put passengers on the very first flight of a new airliner. You test it out first, and then once it's demonstrated you start using it for real. We'll know that reusable rockets have really made it when the first flight of a new one is done as a test flight without risking any lives, and only afterwards is it put into normal use.
> And the point of my reference was to show that Africa was not this idyllic utopia

That's not at all what this discussion is about. The racist charge above was, and let me quote:

> Africa today would in large part still be in the iron age.

To charge that this racist view about the ability of the inhabitants of the African continent is racist, says nothing about idyllic utopias. That you seem to think that any challenge to that racist view, is aloof and removed from reality, shows that you have no idea what you're talking about.

Or you're just really, really sloppy with your argument...

And to explain my analogy, as a service to you, I will quote to you from Wikipedia [0]

> Analogy [..] is a cognitive process of transferring information or meaning from a particular subject (the analogue or source) to another

In this case the "analogue or source" was the fact that whenever there is a well publicized fatal shooting of a black person, there are people in the US media who go and look up if the killed person had a criminal record, and the publish it. This despite the fact, that this has nothing to do with the incident at hand. Someone who has been stopped by police 32 times and has been to jail for a year for theft, can, under the laws that govern the US, not be executed on the street by an officer of the law because their tail-light is out. It's completely and utterly irrelevant, whether the dead person was a criminal or not. That has nothing to do with the fact that the police executed him for having a broken taillight. To bring up his criminal history anyhow, means that the person doing so is looking for other justification for the execution in order to discredit the victim.

The "information or meaning" here is: The action of the perpetrator which we are discussing is logically unconnected to the reputation of the victim. Therefore the reputation of the victim is irrelevant, and to bring it up means you have ulterior motives.

The other subject we are talking about takes the "information or meaning" and applies it to the subject we are talking about. In out case the action is colonialism, Europeans are the perpetrator,and the victim is the African people. Bringing up any wrongs that happened on the African country to try and justify colonialism is logically incorrect, and thus, hints at a different motive.

This is how an analogy works: You take a situation familiar to the addressee, lift the principle governing the situation, and use it to explain a situation less familiar to the addressee.

This has very little to do with my personal "troubles", but rather, it's a rhetorical device employed to make a point.

If you're gonna be racist on the internet, at least don't fail at simple logic.

I don't understand why people are surprised that Erdogan is pushing an Islamic agenda. He was voted in because of his appeal to the religious people.

I think all the people who are surprised at this are the ones outside of Turkey. This should not be a surprise at all. People living in the rural areas are very conservative and they are the ones who brought him to power once again.

Even to this day I hear nothing but praise for Erdogan in my social circle (of _very_ well educated upper-middle class people).

Reading articles from the US & UK makes it look like we are talking about two different people. There is not a lot of hate for Ergodan at the grass-roots level. Almost as if there is an agenda to push by the international community

Well, I have a startup in Turkey. Because of the recent political issues, I'm planning to move my company to US as soon as possible.

We are a SaaS company and team of 8, 93% of our customer base is not from TR. This month we've reached an MRR of ~$45K, MOM growth of 18% and we are profitable.

I know that establishing a company in US is doable but I do not know how to deal with work permits of my employees. Are there anyone who has experienced such issue in the past? Is there a way to do this?

Please guide me through about the possible actions that I can take.

Thank you in advance.
Honestly I think unit tests and interactive debuggers are really for different purposes: unit tests are more used to guard existing code that has been written, while a debugger can be more useful tinkering with new libraries before writing anything production ready.

This is especially true for Ruby(and maybe for Clojure?), since in many cases documentations for libraries are not so great, so you will really have to try the library a little bit to get to the results you want.

If they did support keeping the history but only using it for you, it would be even harder for them to credibly prove that they are not keeping the history for advertisement purposes ("I have disabled you keeping any location history and still you list the places I have been to? How dare you??").

I can understand your point about allo more, though of course storing the local history unencrypted also means that it's going to be accessible to interested third parties in one way or another. If they don't keep it at all, it means that it won't be.
I think the problem really is Apple's use of the term "maximise" doesn't mean what it does on other platforms, and really it's a misnomer entirely. "Optimise" would be a better adjective, and its behaviour differs slightly depending on the app. For example, in Safari it'll resize the browser window to what it thinks is best for the content you're viewing.

Thankfully, tools like you've discovered address this behaviour and add a lot of other useful window management features anyway.

Well, yeah. But I wouldn't say that frameworks are INHERENTLY antithetical to the sprit of hacking. A framwork approximating a library, like Mithril, provides a useful set of abstractions and code for building your project. What IS antithetical to hacker sprit is frameworks that like rails that believe that there is one way to do it, only one way to do it. And if you would like to write or organize your code another way, shut up, you're wrong. Not that that's necessarily bad, but it's directly counter to the hacker spirit.

Absolutely. How can a society flourish when people are spending all their time for someone else? Full time work leaves little time for your health, family, friends, pets, and so on.
Sanderson's work in the original Mistborn Trilogy and in WoT are his best work IMO. unfortunately, the care he put into writing those books to get them just right is seemingly lacking from his more recent books. The most recent mistborn trilogy is laughable. It lacks any real tension, and the fallback on the deus ex machina is very very frustrating to the reader.

Sanderson needs to focus less on being a "writing machine" and more on being a writer.

Some of Sanderson's contemporaries like Lynch, Rothfuss, and Abercrombie have avoided this trap a bit better, but they have also published less.

PC had a speaker hooked to a TTL port, with the same engineering sophistication as the backup alarm on a garbage truck

While true, the quality of sound achievable this way is a matter of software. There are many programs that achieved excellent sound quality, playing music even with just a speaker and a TTL drive.

Remember, the simplest DAC is PWM into a low-pass filter.
We're in the age where everyone brings their own facts to the table - even when the facts are the same, they take the facts and state that they support their position even as the other guy is claiming the opposite.

It doesn't even matter what they say anymore, as the realisation has set in that people won't actually read them - they'll wait for the headline and the related quotes from affected people and stop there.

So as long as you get there with a quote that states you're exonerated, it makes no difference what's actually been found.

In Postgres, because it uses MVCC, every count requires verifying the table row in the data segment. This means a sequential scan over the contents of the table to verify the rows exist and are visible to the current session.

The US has said that if the Turkish govt can provide any sound proof of Gulen's involvement they will consider extradition. But extradition requests are denied all the time even between really friendly nations. The problem with this extradition is that this will most certainly lead to the man being executed so the stakes are even higher to make sure that extradition is just.

Due to the COCOM limits on commercial GPS systems in smartphones, a phone's GPS should fail to work when it is higher than 16,000 ft [http://support.spectracom.com/articles/FAQ/Why-are-there-alt...].

Since Pokémon GO's client requires functional GPS and locks out when it cannot use one (to prevent cheating around turning off one's GPS when one is at a location of interest to pretend you haven't left it), it will fail to operate at ISS orbital altitude, even if it has reliable network link to the Pokémon GO servers.

>>There are some pieces of d3 that I would love to use but aren't easily portable. For example, d3-drag and d3-zoom smooth over a lot of the quirks you'd have to deal with when implementing dragging and zooming, but they're only designed to work with d3 selections [...] Ideally we could decouple these libraries from selections, but it might also be possible to mock the selection interface they expect while still using React.

According to the changelog for the recently released version 4.0.0 of D3.js by Mike Bostock[1], one of the big shifts is for D3 v4.0.0 to be "composed of many small libraries that"[2] can be used independently. So the author of D4.js can now more easily examine Bostock's refactored code for Zoom and Drag as they please.

As much as I like my Macs, I don't think you can claim a Mac is cheap now. I was in the market for a new MacBook Pro, but the machine I was looking at was going to cost me over $4000 (Australian, but at today's exchange rates that's still about $3200 USD). Apple really price gouge on SSD & RAM upgrades - there is no way a 1TB SSD costs $800.

I ended up buying a fully-spec'd 2012 MBP instead (more affordable, better keyboard & trackpad than the 2015s) - and shortly after, a friend bought an identically spec'd HP for half the price of my new Mac. I'd love to say I'd bought a more reliable machine, but this MBP has already been back to the Apple Store twice for repairs in just 6 months. Frankly, it's become embarrassing to buy Apple.

So even though I'm that guy who queued up for a day-one iPhone 4, wore Panic Spinner t-shirts into the Apple Store & knew the staff, persuaded clients & work to support Macs... I now recommend PCs and Windows 10 to friends instead. I can't justify the 100% markup anymore. And since Apple stopped updating macOS for my older Macs (a MacBook 1,1 and 3,1) I even run Windows 10 on my old Macs - now I know I'll get security updates until 2020 on those machines, even though Apple insists they're obsolete. (Win10 runs pretty well on them.)
