FYI, most US SAR teams use websites which basically just call "getCurrentPosition()" to get GPS coordinates from lost subjects. i.e. they leave a voicemail/text subject with a link to a website, and they can push a button on that site to send coordinates from the Geolocation API to SAR.
Perhaps the US dependence on China for some products neutralises the chance of trouble between the US and China.
Well, as it was said, it's using a (several) full-fledged programming language(s). If you are a firm believer in the "declarative" ideology you might see this as a drawback. On the other hand I can see from Terraform issues on Github that people sooner or later want something more turing-complete including loops etc. Then you might as well use a real programming language instead of jumping through hoops and trying to emulate stuff like that in your declarative language.
As kids we embarked on a quest across a (small) country, to my cousins house, to collect a copy of Doom 2. We were so excited we took turns holding the floppy discs on the bus home.

When we finally got there and installed it, it ran at about 2 frames per second. My friend didn't let it phase him. He played it in slow motion for weeks in my attic. Shoot. Wait. Wait. Missed. Shoot again. Wait Wait...

I couldn't take it, and eventually learned about autoexec.exe & config.sys, about the different types of memory etc. Trying to get games like this to run.

Even from the outset its been a battle of hate & love :P

Capitalism is competition between willing participants.

Communism, which philosophically you seem to be in favor of, is about “equality” forced on unwilling participants. Which is why communist countries don’t allow their citizens to leave. If they did, all the producers would flee.

Is there a reason that it the website is recommending you install a third party repository in Debian for Wireshark? It is a native package:

https://packages.debian.org/search?searchon=names&keywords=w...

EDIT: It appears that the website has changed, but still comments about installing from the PPA for newer packages. PPAs tend to be for Ubuntu only, and is not meant for other Debian-based distros.
Not sure why you're getting downvoted. None of the replacements (nor the A-10) are survivable in an area protected by fighters or modern SAMs. In the 80's, A-10s were expected to last less than a few weeks in Germany had the balloon gone up.

Cool!

Suggestion: Show the times in terms of now (using browser's local time), e.g. "in 2 hours" etc. At the very least, include the timezone. I find it confusing when sites publish scheduled times without timezone or relative time, because you never know what system they're using to store the times. Could be UTC, could be my local timezone, could be the timezone of the game... I don't know unless you tell me. Maybe take a look how Google does this (search for a game and see the knowledge card; they explicitly show timezones)

Also, maybe an oversight: the README/comments here say you're using api.football-data.org but the footer of the site says you're using worldcup.sfg.io.

Overall, cool project and nicely timed. I know it's not easy to ship side projects on a schedule like that :)

I love how the Nintendo Switch allows you to pause any game, any time immediately. Even during load screens! And you can suspend the console. Although I don't know what happens when the battery runs out.

Contentment is a state of mind.
Or, similarly, I set up an HTTPS proxy on my Mac, and set Wireshark to listen. Then, had someone else log in to a different account (say, the guest account) on the machine, and asked them to log into gmail, say, as usually via HTTPS (with a fake user/pass). A warning does pop up about "insecure connection", but most people just dismiss it and go ahead and log in - and wireshark intercepts username and password.

Classic MiTM, well known, but still freaky to observe how easy it is to set up.
Agreed. Attack helicopters plus some fixed-wing assets with long loiter give plenty of flexibility for various kinds of CAS missions. And all this should really belong to the Army (and Marines [1]) instead of the Air Force, which desperately wants to stay high, fast and stealthy.

[1] And the entire DoD needs to re-think about how and why we're usually deploying Marines on land, for typical land-based missions that are the main remit of the Army.

It depends. Is this a 40 hour / week gig? If so, rates for those sorts of contracts can be commensurately lower than ad-hoc projects.
What’s the story here? Seems like Koch Bros are against raising taxes. They aren’t “killing” anything.

Let’s assume the tax raise will only go to public transport. Let’s assume for now it’s a good plan and actually wanted by the public. The issue isn’t the previous assumptions but the fact that taxes will not be lowered afterwards.

So even after completion of the project, the tax that was put in place to raise revenues to fund the project will still remain in the books. That’s the insidious nature of government. Once it has it it will not let go.
Ok, this is worth reading!

Adobe Project Rush
Employee to Employer: What you think you create
I think there's an interesting take on this - we are on the verge of a huge technological shift with the advent of self-driving cars. Should we hold off on massive transit projects where they don't already exist that is the community doesn't already have a subway and wait to see how self-driving cars pan out?

It's like investing in traditional cargo ships right as containerization started happening. Or investing in horse related infrastructure when the automotive was first being released.

This seems relatively sensible to me. Address near term issues - small fixes. And not fund huge projects that may become obsolete before they're finished.

I guess the question is -- how quickly will self driving cars be deployed, and how will they effect the areas. Will self driving cars completely replace buses?

Despite a few quibbles (especially re: the prominence of browser settings menus), following these recommendations would be a great help. The clock bar at the top of the screen in GNOME 3 is a weird half measure, and its uselessness drives inconsistency in app UI since every app has to implement its own menu.

I would gladly hitch my wagon to the author's star if they wanted to organize a project to implement these improvements. Does anyone with more Linux development experience know where such a project would start? Is it already in progress somewhere?
There is a point here. Public transportation is great, but under the incredibly inefficient management of the government it will almost always cost anywhere from 2x to 10x what it really should. That means it not only costs more, but takes longer to complete and is possibly irrelevant by the time it is actually usable. This wasn't the case in the past as much it is today and it's only getting worse.
No they won't, for the same reason that cities without public transport or minimal public transport have horrible traffic: the sheer density of people a bus, tram or light rail line can move far exceeds private vehicles with one or two people in them.

It's a clever word play.

> If someone has the freedom to go where they want, do what they want [...] then they’re not going to choose public transit.

This argument is in itself probably not wrong.

Now switch the antecedent (freedom) and consequent (not public transport), and you arrive the argument "public transport is against freedom".

Anyone familiar with logic will know how wrong this is, but the other 95% won't notice.

I don’t disagree with most of your analysis.

Especially your point about automation. Now imagine a world where the US can make things again at a cost competitive rate due to automation. Ok, now look at how those goods would be taxed overseas...

We still would have an export problem due to other country’s protectionist tariffs.

The point of the trade negotiations is to get better terms for US exports. This is critical as we come to a turning point in manufacturing.
The US tried to do that for a long time in the Middle East and South America. China may be underestimating just how unstable these regions are. It's all fun and strategy until the Taliban starts blowing up your infrastructure because its haram

Even with self driving cars, they cannot move any where near the quantity of people in a given space that a train can. It's not going to be a solution for dense cities.

Besides, if we are just on the cusp of having self-driving cars we should be able to deploy self-driving trains right now and reap all the benefits of autonomous transport immediately.

That baseless assertion makes no sense. UB is a property of the ISO standard and has no effect on how compiler vendors implement the language. In fact, UB is intended to enable vendors to be free to choose how they implement that behavior. So why do you believe that the freedom to pick how you implement something hinders any development effort?

I get what you mean, but I have "strengthened my will" against this, I suppose.

There are games like the Dark Souls/Bloodborne series, where you can "quit" anytime, and if you restart, you are in the exact same spot as before. In the worse case, you get killed by roaming enemies/other invading players (it's mainly a single player game with multiplayer elements) - but I die in these bloody games anyway, so I don't care so much. I rationalize it by saying that all you lose are some in-game "souls" (currency) - so yeah I go make that tea for the missus.

In games like The Division/Battlefield 4, where you are part of a multiplayer team and trying to complete a "mission/quest", it's a bit more difficult. It's annoying for the other players if you bail out or go AFK (Away From KBD). So you have to pre-book your game time in short batches ("I'm doing this mission - 45 minutes"). Of course you can leave if you are playing with strangers. Usually the games automatically pull another online player in.

Most other games I play are single-player RPG's (e.g All Bioware / Bethesda RPG's e.g Dragon Age, Skyrim etc) allow you to save or pause.

I can't remember anymore, but even in WoW it wasn't that big a deal to just bail out when needed.
