This is the VFR Terminal Area chart for the airports in question, Teterboro is due north of EWR,

http://vfrmap.com/?type=vfrc&lat=40.692&lon=-74.169&zoom=10

and an object near TEB at 3500' is inside the Class B airspace which requires positive control (not merely radar contact, not merely radio contact, but you must have a clearance or you cannot enter class B). TEB is also within 12 miles of EWR, and that's inside the departure/arrival path for EWR's main north south runways. Aircraft inside class B have a guarantee of positive separation by ATC. Everyone has to follow very specific rules in that airspace. And any aircraft that is not under positive control is a threat to all other aircraft.

Anyway, it is definitely not an overreaction. Also with the government shutdown, I expect there's next to no one available from FAA or NTSB to do a thorough investigation, most inspectors are not categorized as essential.

Tags do not fit spatial memory. Tags are utterly worthless in any spatial context.

You're at the mercy of a search engine's implementation and index foibles for finding things through search queries.

A hierarchy maps onto our spatial memory, which we use to figure out where we've been and go back to it.

There's a lot to be said for maintaining spatial metaphors in information space.

Another little detail here is that spatial organisation (in meatspace) is a shared environment. A single 'shared' ontology is useful even if it's nonsense, because it's still a shared frame of reference in which navigational directions can be shared.
Perhaps the participants of this debate should also comment on the ticket itself? Complaining here probably won't make Google hear you.
I've nearly hit birds flying (and actually hit one but at night). They're actually not bad at avoiding aircraft going 100+ mph. They'll tuck their wings and dive if they feel they're in danger so typical training is to pull to avoid a strike (and lower the chance it impacts the windscreen). Obviously not all birds are great at this, particularly the larger ones but they do seek to avoid aircraft generally.

Looks great so far. I’d like to know the company’s values, what dev practices are in place (XP, scrum, etc) and what they actually mean to the company. How difficult or easy deployment is. How much time is spent on features, bugs, and maintaining legacy code, what the stack is for legacy and for the new stuff, listed separately. Etc.

But the stability of the UK's legal and banking system receives precisely zero benefit from Brexit (quite the opposite) and the UK gains further "independence from Italy's financial woes" from Brexit only inasmuch as it would lose some of the trade it might be expected to lose in the event of a Eurozone recession a little earlier.
(I could just about see how the UK would benefit from being less exposed to Italian financial woes if you anticipated an EU policy response of requiring Member States to contribute to bailouts and/or buy up Italian debt, but that's the bit you ruled out, and I'd see as being unlikely to be applied to non-Eurozone states)

This sort of thing happens because the tech industry doesn't bother with lobbying or really any political fighting other than the occasional angry letter.

Meanwhile, the mining industry successfully countered a law they didn't like a few years ago by spending a few million on tv advertising demonising the government.
The gambling industry got rid of a law by suing the government.
The banking industry managed to convince the regulator to not use their powers through a combination of making it extremely costly and basically infiltrating them.

Only the tech industry is like children when it comes to lobbying and politics.

Ideally, every industry would be like the tech industry and not manipulate the government. But if they want to get rid of this particular law then there is plenty of examples to learn from.

> Doesn’t the ADA(A) cover this? Doesn’t it specifically ensure that disability can’t be used for qualification?

What I'm saying is one step further, and more unreasonable: that if the disability disqualifies the person, then the government should compensate them for the marginal loss in wages that they could have earned from that job if they were not disabled (against a lower-paying job that they are still qualified for).

The ADA only prevents discrimination by employers against disabled people where the disability does not disqualify them from the job.

> Wouldn’t that undermine the fact that people with disabilities shouldn’t be evaluated based on their disability and ‘reasonable’ accommodations should be made?

This is a good general rule of thumb for the everyday treatment of the disabled, in terms of integrating with society. But I think this is insufficient to bring justice to the disabled. But you have a point and I guess the following may be a better way: with respect to disabilities arising from government service, there is a point in time when the government's actions have caused an individual to be disabled. Thus the disabled individual may be compensated for the amortized future loss in wages at one go; thereafter the law should not actively discriminate (positively/negatively) the disabled based on their disability. If a society should then decide to be more magnanimous, this may be done, too, to the naturally disabled, once they become of age. (not while they are too young, or this would create a perverse incentive)

Do we really think a pilot traveling at X speed can see a drone at 3,500 feet?

Lol, do we really believe this? How dumb are we?

This isn't a law, it was a voluntary agreement between the carriers to make all phones they (the carriers) sell have a permanent shutter sound. This was done to stop the moral panic due to "upskirting" on subways/etc.

Since Apple sold iPhones only through carriers initially, they complied with this agreement.

A better example of this would be Apple disabling FaceTime on phones sold in the UAE, which is the result of a law, and the feature stays disabled even if the region is changed from/the phone is removed from the UAE.
It makes it so that your mirror would have to be exploiting apt, instead of effectively anyone. As a result, using TLS for downloads would mitigate this (but not fix it).

DNS filtering has been on the "losing side" for a few decades now. As long as more than 0.1% of people don't use it, it's not worth solving for most ad companies. Even if places like YouTube DO find ways to stuff ads into my face (likely at great technical and operational expense to them), I make it a point to NEVER EVER buy anything advertised, search for any of it, etc. Because they know so little about me (I go out of my way to block as much telemetry and data sharing as possible), their ads aren't very relevant to me anyway, so they're literally just wasting money serving me an ad, trying to pressure me into paying for their premium service. Instead, I just get annoyed if there are too many ads and find something else to do. It would probably serve them better to just realize that some users won't ever convert, and stop wasting time serving them ads.
Irrespective of what system is in place there will always be support/training/running costs associated with managing a big IT system.
The rip off the band-aid shift isn't just about making the leap to a better universal connector, it's also about kickstarting the peripheral market. Manufacturers of peripherals heavily optimize on the short term, so if USB-A is still around, they'll keep their R&D low and just pump out more of that. Moving to USB-C in one fell swoop creates instant demand and forces them to move.

Apple is one of the few companies that can act as a market maker, bringing tons of consumers with money over to a new technology. The strategy was sound, and worked in the past (see iMac's USB in 1997, iPod connector, and lightning connector), though I think USB-C proved a bit too complex for many peripheral manufacturers to put out good products right away. These days though there's a ton of great USB-C peripherals out there.
My experience is that women vary a lot in how direct they are. I find I get along a lot better with the direct ones as opposed to the ones who expect you to guess what they are feeling, and beat up on you if you get it wrong. My guess is that life goes better in a lot of ways for the more direct ones, though I could be wrong about that.
>There’s a real gap in the workflow between design - basically a drawing - and working code.

In tools like Sketch and Figma you're digging for the underlying visual rules, one "component" or layer can have a ton of variations, and I can quickly compare and compose them side by side on a canvas. You build an evolving system to build design systems from.

In code you're implementing the version or composition that made it, one composition. Unless you can move, juggle and manipulate items as convenient as in design tools, exploring compositions with code is a much lesser experience for a designer, even if he can code.
Then you should aim regulators at the advertising industry.

Chrome has a responsibility not just to the end user but also to the website. The cost of the getting the web page's info was viewing the ads. Why should the browser help the user to commit virtual theft?

Simply blanket dismissing ads as "tenuous position" is nonsense. Lots of people make a living via web ads. Google makes billions on ads. It's a real source of real money. Alternatives could, and should!, be considered. But simply cutting off a revenue stream while arguing that the ability to cut off that revenue stream should be protected by regulators is weak at best.
Thanks for your feedback! That's all great stuff and some things I didn't think about, I really like explicitly separating the current stack from legacy code.
It must have to do with the lack of profitability, especially after developing an anti-cheat solution.

I'm not 100% certain if EasyAntiCheat supports Wine at all, or even Linux at all, but that's what they (Epic Games) use. If not, they'd have to write an in-house solution that probably won't work.

In the past (again, I'm not sure about the present), CS:GO was victim to having a Linux client; rather, people figured out that it was much more vulnerable to exploits due to it not having a working anti-cheat solution.
”the DSKY (which they pronounced Diskee), a simple LED and button-based interface”

Wikipedia says there were visible-light LEDs in 1962 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light-emitting_diode#Discoveri...), but even ignoring they emitted red light, which the photos do not show, I think it’s unlikely they used them in this device.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apollo_Guidance_Computer#DSKY_... claims it used ”green high-voltage electroluminescent seven-segment displays”. That seems more likely to me.

> Add the very real prospect of social security collapsing

There is absolutely no prospect whatsoever of Social Security collapsing. A 0% chance. There is no factual basis, only flat-earth anti-vaxxer type scare mongering, for any claim to the contrary. Social Security is funded by payroll taxes. The only way Social Security could "collapse" is if people stop getting paid.
Can any air people comment on whether that collision would have been fatal to the aircraft? I'm sure it possibly could be, but at what likelihood? Personally I'd be more concerned about a propeller or wind screen strike, but these guys know more about it than me.

There's just no good reason to be flying near an airport. On the other hand, if you're five miles away from the nearest airport, the odds of a collision (even if you break the rules r.e. flying in LOS or under a certain ceiling) are just astronomically low. The sky is an enormous place and the odds of two things occupying the same space in it without trying to are once in a century if that. At the current level of density, at any rate.

Another thing that strikes me, and probably won't make me popular with pilots on this board: dozens or hundreds of GA pilots get themselves killed every year. Most of the time, this is due to pilot error. Drones represent some amount of increased risk to GA pilots. But, at the current level of drone market penetration, it seems empirically tiny compared to the risks GA pilots already faced voluntarily. I don't know what to do with this observation, except perhaps downgrade my personal concerns about the risks of drone <-> plane incidents.

Anecdote: I was flying during instrument training at night and took a laser strike from a small town about 30nm north of a class bravo airport (very large airline hub). When I reported it to approach, they basically closed all the northbound arrival/departure routes and started diverting traffic to the east and west so nobody would overfly the offender. Also, I got to watch a LOT of cop cars light up a minute or two later...

You raise a very good point, and I can't even start to guess at the answer or implications.

I think any data the NSA has would be stringently guarded and only used for high-profile / high-impact cases. If the NSA was constantly feeding data to other agencies about trivialities, then it would raise red flags about where "all this incriminating evidence" came from.

Cases involving StingRay interceptions have been dropped so as to protect the details of such interceptions.

There's also the relationship between the agency and the Government to consider. The CIA don't seem to get along very well with various members of the US Government, and with "good" members such as Ron Wyden, if the NSA was feeding ill-gotten data to the US Govt, then someone like him would probably raise some kind of stink.

This doesn't answer the fundamental question of whether the NSA has this data, it's more about the potential mitigation of the likelihood of the data being actually used against someone.

Much like we don't know where the line is on the potential for Huawei kit to be a threat to national security.

Something. Not nothing.

Edited to add:
There's also the very likely situation where Government policy / regulation is put in place to cover all parties, and the NSA ignores this anyway because they're above the law. Everyone else must play by the rules, the US Govt looks to be doing the right thing.

(this isn't a bitter statement, merely that I think this is how things actually work, whether for the US or any other country; realpolitik)
