Look at the rate of descent. He had the plane on its back for a while, losing altitude at around 1000 FPS. May have been above Mach 1. Auto-GCAS took over and snap rolled the plane around to wings-level, then pulled up. This is the most aggressive autopilot on a manned aircraft ever.

Yet it won't take over until it really, really has to. Pilots can fly close to terrain.

It's interesting that the GCAS took over based on data other than the radar altimeter. There's no radar altimeter data when the plane is on its back, because the downward-pointing radar is looking in the wrong direction. Note that the GCAS arrows are moving in before the radar altimeter data reappears.
Well,to be fair you could just open the MacBook Pro and unplug the ribbon for the webcam. iFixit will have instructions. Removing it entirely granted is another matter, involving opening the screen, but you'd have to do the same on any modern laptop with an integrated camera wouldn't you?
That's kind of nonsense. Kotlin adds some syntax sugar to Java, but it's not related to Scala in any reasonable way.
"Earning?"
If you're curious you should actually look up where the Johnson/Weld ticket stands on issues [1].

The libertarian party in the U.S. is branding itself as "socially liberal, fiscally conservative" meaning government should be lean and allow for as much social liberty as possible. They kinda tried to take the "common sense" approach. At least, that's what they say their stance is. Based on both of the governors terms in office I'd agree.

I always like to call myself a liberal, it totally throws off my friends who are Democrats and Republicans though.

“Younger people are just smarter.” - Mark

not wiser :D

My view is you need to be smart for the short-term solution / problem & unencumbered by obsolete boundaries / limit.

You need to be wise for the long-term stuff since it's human nature to repeat the same mistakes & not learning from it

The saying is "attacks only get better". Its likely that more can be done with less pixels but more software.

But hardware can also get better. Surely the next-gen of laptops have depth-sensing cameras too? Its becoming an integral part of game console motion detection, and normal smartphones will have them too e.g. hype I found by googling: https://3dprint.com/117809/depth-sensing-phone-cameras/

Thanks for the links. I read the first one. I guess we just disagree.

I am of the opinion minor discomforts are things we have to deal with/adapt to. Especially when there is work to do. You seem to be of the opinion that personal discomforts are something that we should avoid causing as a matter of the upmost importance.

I think we have to agree to disagree.

if that was a real and possible threat to someone, then that would be totally unacceptable as well. Pretty sure people who went through 9/11 would not appreciate that.

Thing is, it's not found everywhere, there are very respectful workplace environments. If people do cross the line it is called out and dealt with and quite quickly things converge on what is acceptable and what's not.

I don't dislike the show because it's conservative - King of the Hill is an example of a good, funny and politically conservative series - but because it's moved away from having character-driven plots, and become low-effort and predictable in who it satirizes.
Sensor problem fixed in 8.0 software update.
For those who think this is addressing a relatively small problem, one of the major Australian banks analysed [1] the accounts of 1 million of its customers (1 in 22 Australians) in 2011 and found that 74% of e-commerce by revenue was cross-border. Three quarters! In some markets, over 90% of the revenue was from abroad.

It's not just fashion and cosmetics, things like lawn mowers were also getting imported.

Part of the problem was AUD appreciation which put the MSRP of most things a good 50% above the rest of the world. Coupled with high costs in Australia (due to tight labour legislation which helps sustain an egalitarian culture), no Australian retailer could compete. The AUD has weakened substantially since then so I wonder if the picture has changed enough to make GST matter.

Charging GST might help a little bit, but the issue is FX, high local costs, and relatively cheap international shipping. For example, ASOS offers free international shipping so long as you are ready to wait 4 weeks. This is fine with most customers who prefer buying the same jeans for $60 and wait to paying twice as much and having them instantly. They employ only a handful of people in Australia to manage inbound shipments and customs, but it is (was, 3 years ago when I last looked) a significant chunk of their global profits.

That being said, protectionism didn't work out for the Australian car industry.

It's super easy to write a component in ng2. I feel like it's faster, but it's been about a year since I really used ng1.

My favorite thing about ng2 components over ng1 would be the annotations. One annotation turns my component into a component. It links the html template, sets up the services, injects the other components and directives it needs in one simple annotation. In ng1, I remember it being cumbersome to set everything up.

To use a component in your existing app.
You create a new ts file.
Add an annotation.
Write the template inline or in another file.
Reference that ts class in your other components. That's it!

I tend to agree and teach this to my son with a very specific set of "rules of engagement", as I had a very similar experience - but without the positive ending.

Basically I found trying that when your bullies are hardcore norteño gangbangers and you are 130lbs soaking wet with zero self confidence - and well it doesn't work out and it only infuriated them even more.

The key though is: If you are going to take a beating, then fight back and if you get your ass beat, you get your ass beat - at least 30 years later you will not look back on yourself in those moments with disgust, because only later did you decide to stand up for yourself.
Why not choose Vue.js? It's extremely simple, fast, easy to get started with, and very similar to Angular.
Not necessarily.

One could take the position (not mine) that the NSA's "business as usual" was appropriate, that Snowden was mistaken in his adjudging it something that needed leaking, but that he was operating in good faith, honestly - mistakenly - believed it needed disclosure, and honestly believed internal channels would be ineffective at best. If we're going to have a massive secret surveillance apparatus, of course we need to encourage people in-the-know to blow the whistle if they suspect it is being misused.

When the FBI interrogate, they have people whose expertise is to use your entire body language including facial expressions, etc... to gather information.

Giving an attacker the ability to monitor your body language while they have full control of your computer is extremely dangerous as they have established a closed loop to interact with you without your consent or knowledge.

As the FBI also excell in this kind of subversive intelligence gathering, it figures they would be wary of being on the other end of it. An example is if a chinese, Russian, corporate spy had them on the other end without their knowledge.

Edit: Another topic is the issue of criminals who use extortion. This is far more common than you likely realize or aware of. Where we are the criminals and intelligence saboteurs/spies are alot more sophisticated, and use computer hacks as part of their planning to extort and blackmail their targets.

Yes, you can't trust the good biz monkeys.

My experience as well. Sadly, the only really good biz person I know does not share the same values as me. Very intelligent and good at what they do, but they'd fuck you over in a second if that meant them "winning". Don't care for a second what business they're running, as long as it's a money-making business. Whereas I have to feel like I'm working on "important" problems, that person couldn't care less.

Pretty sure that person is sociopathic - at least borderline.

It's this article from 15 years ago?

There was a small market window for selling Internet enabled payphones in Europe and Asia in 1996 or so, but it was obvious that mobile phones would end that within years.

There was no market in US, but I guess I just assumed that US was ahead of the curve, not 15 years behind.
I totally see the appeal on the surface level of a nicer/cleaner looking query language and API.

Still, pretty much everything else you mentioned seems doable with REST. I'm using Marshmallow schemas in Python which seem to act in a similar way on a field by field basis as a GraphQL resolver does. I'm not sure what exactly I'd be getting outside of a slightly nicer/cleaner abstraction by moving to GraphQL, but maybe that's enough?
Reading the article feels like I am talking to my old neighbour who likes tell me about his good old days, which is a good thing.

Anyway, that advice at the end of the article is BS. Being older does not stop you from coding, and it does not stop you from being an engineer. Engineering is not age dependent, but practicing it as a job may be.

Getting to Know Aura PHP – Part II
I am 54, a former CTO, CIO and current CTO and love to code. I believe "now" is the most exciting time in tech ever (and I started on mainframes, went through client server, n tier, web and whatever we are now). I believe open source is truly changing the world in a massively positive way. I'm sure someone younger could do my job, but I think "perspective" matters. I love learning and just moved a bunch of production workload to Kubernetes. Not sure exactly why this touched me the way it did but I dread the day I hang up my spurs. The industry just gets more and more interesting to me.
If you measure how much time you spend watching TV or surfing the web it puts it in perspective... I used to run about 40 miles a week a few months ago. Usually ended up being between 5 and 6 hours a week. The long run is usually on the weekend when I'd imagine most people can find a few hours to spare. I am sadly injured right now and biking or inline skating instead. Now THAT takes some time and is so much less efficient time wise in maintaining my weight. I rode 22 miles in 1:20 and only burned 900 calories or so. Normally it would take me 1 hour to burn that running.

I am not really "old" (ie over 40), but I have interviewed older candidates for some technical roles at very different companies, and I've found there are either old people who believe they know better at everything whose skills have not improved much since their early 30s, and then old people who stay up to date on technologies, trends, and realize that programming is a field you never really ever master with time or age; it shifts too much to be able to ever fully grasp it.

The "old" people who are curmudgeonly and stuck on older technical stacks are the ones who don't fare well. The ones who are current in skillset never seem to have an issue and generally impress the people they meet, as they bring both experience and current technical knowledge to the table. Anecdotally, I would say 8/10 of the 40+ crowd I have interviewed fall into the "old technical stack" / "i know better" crowd, and I think these are the ones that poison the well for the good guys.

I am beginning to believe that the trick to software engineering as a career vs. management is to stay current above all else. If you let yourself become obsolesced, you will be thrown aside like an old PowerBook. That's the reality of the technology industry and has little to do with age.

Yeah, for the vast majority of engineering programming is like selling shoes. You just need about 4 years experience and you pretty much know it all. Certain skill sets are great for older folks though. Security, for example. You want to work with someone who has a long track record of being trustworthy.

That being said, there is something compelling about an older engineer who constantly re-invents himself with the latest technology.
