Yes, but the parasitic drag scales with velocity squared, and the induced drag scales with mass. Shrink the aircraft by 2 in all dimensions, you're fine on induced drag, you just need to slow down by a factor of 1-sqrt(2) -- 30%. Structural weight will also be much less. You also aren't carrying the weight of a pilot cockpit, ejection seat, etc. You don't have the drag penalty from the canopy either.

You do need to duplicate a lot of systems, but with modern electronics, these are a lot lighter and take much less power than before. The swarm aspect also allows for large synthetic apertures instead of a big single radar aperture in the nose of one aircraft. Swarms can also deploy cheap unguided weapons, because they can get very close to a target without the worry of losing a pilot and a $100 million airplane. The structural advantages of being small can also be exploited in an unmanned vehicle in that they can sustain much higher G loads than a large airplane, and with no pilot to black out, they will be much more agile in evading missiles.
At 1.5mm, a piece of tape would come closer than you'd think to being a permanent fix...

The vacuum of space seems drastically hard to keep at bay, but consider that you're only holding in enough gas to replicate sea-level air pressure (nominally 14 PSI or so). A typical soda can is pressurized to between 30 and 50 PSI depending on temperature, beverage etc.

Supposedly the apollo command module had a pressure skin that was as thin as 0.012" (0.3mm) in places.

Hybrid cars are a great answer - you can get a 3500lb car (like the Camry Hybrid) that gets 40 MPG highway, and often 50 MPG in city/country driving. This is because the car usually shuts the engine off below ~46 MPH. Until you've driven a hybrid, you won't realize how often the engine isn't needed, and just 40 horsepower is enough to propel the car. Often, the engine will run for just a few seconds as you accelerate, then will turn off for the next several minutes, as you coast or maintain speed to the next stop light on battery alone.

Another benefit of hybridization is that AC and other power-hungry accessories can be powered during heavy acceleration without putting any more strain on the engine. It's fun to go for a drive during a hot day, use AC the entire time, and still get (for example) 42.3 MPG.

Plus, you get the instant torque of an electric car. Maybe not quite as much as a Tesla, but you'll still beat an F-150 off the line.
If it provides so much value for the kid, why stop here?

I think we should start torture camps for spoiled children - shoveling clay in North Carolina summer, shoveling snow in Alaska winter, and so on! That will teach them!!

If it is so good, parents will certainly pay good money to put their kids in the best torture camp!
I guess the oldest quote would be in the bible, as "there's no new thing under the sun". In any case though, I don't really understand the point of using 'fallacy' aside from cases where it's an actual logical fallacy.

You can probably cover every habit of thought and discourse under a banner of fallacy, if you pick out the ways in which they are used badly - since people tend to think badly due to misapplied habits.
Notmuch, which is IMHO superb and totally underrated.

I like it a lot due to its clever architecture. It never ever touches your email. It operates on a separate tag database.

Then, it's the task of a backend to translate tag changes into maildir actions before and after syncing email. Keeping tag to actions decoupled from the GUI is extremely clever, because it allows implementing basically any email workflow you can imagine.

For simple workflows, calling a one liner notmuch command is sufficient. You don't really need to implement anything.

Mu4e is an alternative client to Notmuch. Quite similar to Mutt. Gnus is the other big alternative. It's quite old, and complex to configure. Besides, the codebase is overcomplicated as it tries to do email in a news-like fashion. Still, it has lots of great ideas on how to deal with email from many sources. E.g. using predictive scoring.

I agree with a lot of this, disagree with "multichannel" bit. The idea of "learning styles" is dead in the field of psychology and the advice isn't actionable in the context of a presentation or meeting anyway (how does your average powerpoint aid these supposed "kinesthetic" learners?").

This smells like selection bias. The people who aren't struggling that badly aren't complaining about it!

> related rules that have been removed would have allowed for recourse in this situation.

The related rules allow for formal complaints alleging that rules were broken. That's not recourse, as even under previous NN rules, data threshold throttling was perfectly fine. Recourse would be if they could complain and there was an actual rule broken that Verizon could be punished for.
>As a fly fisherman, I sure hope we can eliminate some of those dams.

They're not all bad. Some of the best gold medal sections in the country are tailwaters. It's some of the most challenging, technical fishing you'll ever do as well. Landing a 10lb trout on size 24-28 nymphs and 8X tippet is an art itself.
Having been in this situation it’s so incredibly difficult. Especially if it happens early career you don’t know what you don’t know. It ends up becoming tedious for people with work ethic which is like to consider myself having. Your soul wants to be productive and you know you aren’t. Maybe it’s an ego thing. Or just procrastination. I think you are right. Just that it’s hard to do.
I flew First Class on a four-class A380 for a round-trip that I took a few weeks ago. It was amazing, everything that I hoped it would be and then some. I ate a fantastic meal, drank top-shelf whiskey and champagne, and then crashed out on my seat, which the FA made into a bed (duvet, comforter, and all) while I changed into the provided pajamas in the lavatory. I got a solid four hours of sleep on my 8-hour flight and then woke up for a proper breakfast. It was expensive but I really do feel that I got my money's worth, especially considering the international first class lounges that I used before the flight, which included a fine dining five-course meal and private bathrooms with showers.

There are tons of engineering rockstars (brad pitt types). Pick your favourite framework there are usually a handful of stars around it.

Am I Brad Pitt? I'm not in that league. But you don't have to be to avoid the unpaid nonsense of hanging around all day. If that's the hiring process it shows that the company is unsure of themselves and are afraid to make a mistake. Companies like google are so big they need this kind of process to filter people out. When a 30 person company does this it raises red flags.

As a 6'5 frequent flyer...I feel your pain. I generally do check seat widths before flying. That said, I much prefer Boeings over Airbus(but hey, anything beats Embraer). Maybe it's nostalgia, the 747 was amazing and had tons of room to get up and walk around. That said, even in the newer fleets I like Boeing, mainly because I physically don't fit in Airbus's excuse for a restroom.
I feel like you just described Google.
I agree with McAfee here. Just because they accessed something they weren't supposed to, doesn't mean it was hacked. The system fails when someone gets access to the coins, because that's what the system was designed to protect. I'm not claiming McAfee is correct about anything else, or that the system really is secure, but the point stands that a system designed to secure coins, can only be considered a failure if you manage to extract coins.

I find there is a problem here - hotel chains "sell" some of their room-nights (#) to the third party channels. I think it works like options - but it means I phone the hotel to book a room i can see is available on all these third party sites (including trip advisor) but the hotel cannot sell that room-night to me because the channel has first dibs.

which seems like the hotel is cutting off its own nose

I personally do not find a reminder of what actual human oppression looks like throughout the world in a discussion on why white male re-education courses should be mandated in the workplace (and the irony certainly doesn’t escape me). Ignoring that fact betrays the underlying entitlement of the claim.
The humidity is supposedly also much better, thanks to much more use of composite materials in its construction (corrosion concerns keep humidity much lower on other passenger aircraft). I've certainly heard anecdotally that this was noticeable, but who knows.

Not true at all. Plenty of people do it both. I flew international first class a few weeks ago and the cabin was 100% full. There were a couple of guys that looked like they might have paid for the upgrade with miles but most people looked like they probably paid cash, especially the ones that immediately went to sleep in their beds and never so much as had a glass of champagne.
What I mean is that the fuel reprocessing designs aren’t miniaturizable, so government money wasn’t spent developing them because they couldn’t be used in aircraft carriers or submarines. When civilian power plants were made, it was basically just scaled up military designs. The same contractors built both.

Also the fact that we use uranium instead of the safer and more abundant thorium is because you can’t make thorium bombs.

The reactors that have failed are these military derivative designs that lack safety features because there is no space for them in a submarine. No modern design has had such a failure, or could have such a failure since they have no reliance on active cooling and have safeguards to structurally prevent a core meltdown.
I did read the article. That's discovering that someone is stalking you, until and unless you tell them you'd rather "opt out" even though you never "opted in" the evil stalking. Meanwhile, all shops and businesses you get near to or purchase from are calling the stalker to let him know what you're doing -- how do you "opt out" of these?

What is your comparison point? Things get better all the time, but it really depends on what apples you compare which oranges to, and which flavour you prefer, how the comparison is viewed.

So, is the comparison point Roman London? During the Blitz? When Pea Soup was a common pollution issue (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pea_soup_fog)? Or is it a period post war until about 1980 when assets hadn't caught up to a booming economy?

Some parts of life are more expensive in a few world cities that are more than their local population, places like London, SF, NYC, Paris. In such places, housing is likely prohibitively expensive for almost everyone, as the market size (aka demand) is every person in the world worth north of $USD 10 million in the entire world. That market is a LOT larger than even ten years ago, and has a motivated population (the Chinese) who prefer foreign assets over local ones. On the flipside, supply has not kept up, as most world cities have housing approval procedures that are glacially slow, and held back by NIMBYs.

But even then, the London of 1950 wasn't the place it is now, and lots of things like air quality have improved vastly, as has what is available to do - from eating to drinking and general entertainment.

Ironically, I think what you parents did is the same way everyone today could make great wealth - move to a city in another country with opportunity. My ex moved to Beijing and made 1st world money while spending like a local - so > $100K with expenses under $1K a month.
I've been traveling for the past few years (40+ countries) and overall I'd say Booking.com works very well and has much better-controlled reviews (be sure to actually read them for details). AirBnB can work well and is my preferred style, although a lot of place have been cracking down on them lately.
You should publicly name both of your employers as that is rare and noteworthy.
Are they truly the best at delivering value, or are they simply good enough that their second-mover advantages, coupled with network effects, prevented potential future entrants from shaking up the market and providing better value?

STRIKE Magazine – On the Phenomenon of Bullshit Jobs
I don't think you really understand the architecture of the machine. EPYC looks on paper like it has a large L3 cache, but it consists of separate L3 caches per "core complex" of which there are two per die and four dies per package. So what you've actually got is a bunch of redundant 8MB caches, which is not the same thing. Because of the baroque topology, especially when you have two sockets, access to main memory varies between almost-as-fast-as-xeon to way-way-slower-than-xeon. Combined with the small caches it's a total disaster.
I have been unemployed for the most of my life, and i now have a 9to5 job. I think I hate jobs. I love working with code and projects, but it's very difficult or impossible to find a job, even in programming, that has some kind of meaning, good sense, or is stimulating.

Jobs feel like you're playing the role of a robot. It has no soul. It just shows how society has become so mechanized and lifeless and dead boring.

It's not all jobs, but I really feel alien to the society of labor. I might be unable to adapt and do work I don't like, but at least this article is agreeing that I'm not 100% of the problem.

On the other hand, creating a project by one self and making it happen seems hard, but it really shouldn't. My view is that society doesn't really like struggling artists.
All I can really muster is “Shut up Wesley”.

I am not sure how this would work. rsh/ssh may be involved. I wouldn't even know how to express:

ssh carthoris ls /mnt/media/Movies | grep Spider

(this is just an example). Note that in this example, we
have two processes running on two different machines.
Indeed, the OSs and systems on these machines may be, um...
different. Indeed, I routinely include "cloud" machines
in pipelines. Indeed, with ssh, the -Y (or -X) option can
introduce a GUI to a part of the command.

I have wished that shar was part of SUS. Also, I find that

> So then dig the new tunnel beside it.

What if there are things in the way? Like... building foundations. Stations. Access to the first tunnel. Lots of stuff that might be reasonably expected to grow up in close proximity to a tunnel.

Digging two tunnels at once is going to be much cheaper and easier than digging one tunnel and then digging the second tunnel much later, especially if you never planned to dig the second tunnel.
But business is roughly double the price of economy. Do you need to buy an extra seat at the same price, or is it just a small premium available when they think the plane will be underbooked?

So, for example, if I type "nytimes.com" as the top level URL, I might allow "nyt.com" as well. The GET or POST for any other URLs on that page will not be sent by my browser.
I feel that Apple would fit the description much better.
