There are some other devices out there that are made to allow alligator clips onto leads or to use conductive thread, so no soldering is required. Adafruit makes several great little boards, but if you're getting started I'd recommend the "Circuit Playground" board: https://www.adafruit.com/product/3333 It has a number of sensors and LEDs built in already as well and supports CircuitPython, Microsoft MakeCode, and the Arduino framework.
> It’s actually the airlines dragging their feet on a lot of this, not “30 year old ATC.” Many airlines don’t upgrade their planes to have the latest equipment.

Yes, and I believe they do not upgrade because it makes no business sense for them. Regulators say, for example, "install ADS-B so you are compliant with latest standards" which at the moment has no tangible benefits for the airline. If, by installing it airline would get useful additional capabilities, such as being able to fly direct from point A to point B or allow for lower separation I suspect they would upgrade quickly.

The above is not (really) bashing ATC -- there is a very low tolerance for mid-air collisions, so regulatory change is very, very slow.
Parent is saying that it's better if everyone gets richer, even if some get more richer than others.

So you're saying that it would be better if everyone was poorer individually, as long as they were more equally poor?

> Use non-x86 platforms such as an ARM based Chromebook

Careful there. Microsoft has been slipping PC bits into their Windows Arm systems because Windows is so hopelessly tied to the PC platform that they had to PCify their Arm with EFI, ACPI and other PC legacy junk. Just be sure your Arm does not have any of this anti-consumer crap and you should be good to go.

It could be, if there was a standard format or protocol by which a shell can ask a command what flags/options make sense in what context.

A bit like how man pages are a standard format for static docs, every tool could ship "autocomplete files" which tell a shell how to build the autocomplete. These files could even contain runnable code (in sh or something) without an additional security risk - after all, they came with a program that you're about to run :-)

I'm sure there's all kinds of challenges with this when you go deeper, but when even a relatively lightweight tool like VS Code can give me perfect C# IntelliSense on every major OS, I find it a bit abysmal that unzipping a file from the terminal is non-trivial.
I'm not sure I fully understand the distinction but I guess the big difference is that very few Christian countries are theocracies (i.e. in these countries Christian religious law has no impact outside the very limited authority held by clergy, e.g. denying entry to places of worship).

But historically as an outside it seems that Islamic sects are fairly analogous to Christian ones. There was an early split between Rome (Catholicism) and Constantinople (Eastern Orthodoxy), later various reformers led to Protestant sects, some of which eventually joined in alliances like the Evangelical Church in Germany (which includes Lutherans and Calvinists but has established a shared consensus).

At a glance, Christianity is defined by a split between Catholicism and Protestantism, with Protestantism being a fairly diverse collection of various groups ranging from Lutherans to Baptists.

Much of Christianity's present form is owed to the Peace of Westphalia, which in a nutshell led to the widely accepted ideology that it's okay for other countries not to share your religious beliefs (or even allow a diversity of beliefs in their own territories).

A lot of hate for microservices in this thread. I think you’d be surprised how much some major tech companies (Google etc.) are and have been relying on microservices and that style of architecture for many years now.

I think the biggest conflict here is scale of the services involved. For smaller scale - which is what most people are familiar with - monolithic architecture can offer distinct advantages. At scale though? Monoliths have been relentlessly excised for years because of all the very real scaling and maintenance problems that go with them.

Sure, but that's been the case for thousands of years.

The novelty is in the global nature of the competition, the physical and informational proximity that accelerate evolution of patterns. That's what makes them spread so quickly and prominently, across seemingly unrelated scales and disciplines.

Another curious manifestation is how humans are changing the way they treat each other, how they structure their (human) relationships. Did humans tame the computers, or did computers tame the humans?

I work for Aha![0]. I'm wary of trying to define the culture of one company in terms of another, so I'll just tell you about where I work, and you can decide.

We are a fully distributed team, and we build a lovable product. We published a book called Lovability[1] to help explain how we do it. We support each other, congratulate each other, and push hard to make it happen; these things require trust and talent in every part of the organization. I am a better person (and engineer) for having worked at this company.

Here are the pillars of our culture[2]:

* Have purpose: You know what you are working towards. You are aware of what success is and guided back to the purpose if you wind up in the weeds.
* Value work: You have the opportunity to achieve and to do something important. Doing great work is valued and recognized.
* Teach hard: Direct feedback is given on a regular basis to help you improve your skills every day.
* Grows talent: There is a framework for success, people are trained on it and given room to grow. There is trust that people will step into challenging roles as the organization needs them to. Promotions occur from within.
* Honor reality: Neither time nor money is invested in manipulation. Work is guided by values and purpose.
* Work it: Work sometimes requires great effort. However, it does not burn you out but instead keeps you going.

I hate terminals because they're completely undiscoverable and they depend on you typing each character exactly right or things could blow up.

Give me a good discoverable, safe UI over a terminal any day.

The only good thing about a terminal is that flexibility you get by piping programs together. GUIs can (and do) have the same kind of flexibility but it's not as standardized so I guess another good thing about terminals is that there are some simple standards.

Other than that though, I'd throw away terminals forever if I could.
There's also the cleaning and maintenance aspects. I would guess the pull-down shades broke/tore more often than the dimming technology fails (repairing either would require pulling the seat row and wall panel to get access, so more reliable == win)

I don’t have an obsession with security, it’s just so easy and cheap that I don’t get why you wouldn’t do it (the people with an obsession with security probably don’t even trust 1Password to sync that encrypted file anyways)

My mom, who is as far removed from tech as you can get, understands why not sharing passwords might be a good idea when one can get hacked and set of a domino effect.

And your comparison is a straw man, the real comparison is trying to remember 50 random passwords to using a password manager because there is a sea of research showing that good passwords should be truly high entropy and random.

Using a password manager doesn’t stop you from using 2fa like your comparison is worded to imply.
One of the main differences is the fact that the value of a currency is fundamentally based on who accepts it. All economic theory prior to this is...i dont want to say outdated but needs to be reprioritized.

I've flown the A380 a bunch of times, always SFO-FRA, upper deck economy on Lufthansa.

The best part of the experience is the relative calm of the small economy class on the upper deck. To be honest, other than that, I don't particularly prefer it over anything else. If I was pressed I guess I'd say I prefer the 787. Mostly I prefer whatever gets me to my destination without a layover (which, thankfully, is usually available from SFO).

The worst part is the crush of people trying to board the damn plane, spilling out all over the entire terminal.

I'm wondering when I write my own, if i should just have a central skill for my house. Also how did you link into the Chromecast?

Bitcoin's price only goes up as people buy it. "Making money" requires selling it. Selling it causes the price to go down. This is fundamentally the problem—unlike stocks, real estate, and other productive investments, one can only make money in Bitcoin by selling it for a higher price than it was purchased for.
>- I don't see CME and CBOT. The most reliably venues (you can replicate the spot with a multileg trade).

You're being downvoted for injecting a political topic (the Israeli-Palestinian conflict) into an unrelated article on chess and Saudi Arabia, not because of "narrative"
"[balance] fundamental principles such as freedom of expression, media pluralism, and the right of citizens to diverse and reliable information"

Typical EU-style communication. The word "balance" conjures up images of health, reason, yoga classes and whole grain breakfasts.

But in the end, it still represents a worldview of enlightened apparatchiks vs idiotic plebes. Why does there need to be a "balancing act" between freedom of information and anything else? When is something reliable or diverse or pluralistic?

I have a concrete grievance since acquisition...

They've started to dump crap into the Lastpass Vault. First it was adverts and then they modified the search bar to search the web rather than only your saved passwords/notes. Both attempts at gaining advertising/referral revenue and in my opinion at the cost of security.

I've disabled the idiotic search and was paying for Lastpass Premium before so don't see the ads but it is the principle that the company now places minor revenue over what I consider security which I cannot stand.

Plus I had issues with LogMeIn's business practices previously and moved to a competitor. Only to now have them follow me by buying Lastpass. I am in the early stages of looking at moving away from Lastpass (after four years).

Auth0 is probably pretty close. I spent 3 years there (recently left, but not because of anything negative with the company). They hire remote, they are super flexible with work hours, etc. Culture is that of basically be responsible and get your work done. Really high bar on hiring though so it can be tough to get in, but if you do get in it’s an awesome place to work. Retention is super high - I was one of the few people who have ever left the company voluntarily. ;)

I know they are hiring for lots of positions as well. auth0.com/jobs

In Germany both the Catholic church and the Evangelical church are registered religious organisations governing various religious communities and institutions. The German Catholic church is obviously subject to the Vatican, but the Evangelical church is a lot more democratic, consisting of a large number of otherwise independent religious communities (including Lutherans, Calvinists and Unionists).

This sounds similar though a lot more aggressively expansionist.

Did you read the posted article, or the one you just mentioned? The statement by the cleric does not have the force of law. There are plenty of Christian sects whose leaders also reject games such as chess for similar reasons. And the actual leader of Saudi Arabia is doing this precisely as a rejection of the cleric's statement. I think FIDE made the wrong decision by agreeing to host the tournament in Saudi Arabia, even with the reforms which have not gone nearly far enough yet, but at the same time, the symbolism of hosting the tournament is not hypocrisy. In this case, it's actually progress, and an explicit rejection of hyperconservative Islam.

Sorry, but "running but not vulnerable" is not nearly good enough nowadays. This means that a real exploit (e.g., via yet another insert-your-favorite-spooky-agency tool leak) can be quickly scaled to a large fraction of computers worldwide.
