> hadn't had any major issues until now

The Lion Air crash was a pretty major issue, surely! Major enough that Boeing is supposedly working on a patch, which was supposed to have been delivered already (but hasn't been).

While we wait for more information on the Ethiopian case, the superficial similarities look worrying enough that "better safe than sorry" sounds like a more justifiable response than merely "let's wait and see".
Calling between rooms has been the main reason I got a second device (first one for tinkering). Got a young baby so being able to wake up the partner across the other side of the house without needing hands when there's been an ... explosion is useful.

That music integration with sonos sounds really nice.

Nothing groundbreaking though.

There's no contradiction because I never said and do not believe that gender is binary. That's a strawman anyway, no one claims that even sex is binary (no one who knows that hermaphrodites exist, at least). And there's no irony because pointing out that I'm studying science wasn't an appeal to authority, but an obvious disproof of your suggestion that anyone who disagrees with you is anti-science.

BTW, both "binary gender" and "climate change" are off-topic in this discussion about neurobiological differences between the sexes. You have no reason to bring them up here other than to suggest that disagreeing with you is somehow equivalent to denying climate change.

I'd find you much more convincing if you contributed some empirical evidence to the discussion instead of invoking "science" as a magic word.
As far as I understand it, the area of the pancreas can often be difficult to detect cancer in- and particularly the area has a lot of space for metastasis.(I’m not a trained medical professional so if my words are contradicted by anyone who is, please ignore me entirely.)

I’m under the impression MRI scans have two main issues with them:

1. A trained radiologist can still miss small tumors, and it is in fact quite easy to miss them. The body is complicated and all sort stuff of weirdnesses can occur that are not harmful.(eg. Benign tumors)

2. It is possible that the discovery of a tumor doesn’t mean cancer. This was a debate in breast cancer treatments- a lot of heartache and suffering can occur from a cancer scare and there has been existing controversy regarding early testing given this.

Everything you open up to commercialism will eventually turn to poo. Look at television and what it was initially meant to be and where its ended up.
That's how society works though. Funneling money from one place to another for profit and manipulating people for profit is business as usual. I really don't understand the recent public opinion of some people thinking tech will become the downfall of our society.
Yea, that's probably true. Everything gets less fun as time goes on.

The overreaction was on facebook's part.
Unreasonable in the sense that even if it’s legal, ejecting someone who wasn’t causing problems is likely to strike many people as overbearing even if they share the owner’s politics. Facebook being arbitrary hurts them because everyone else has to wonder whether something they care about will be next.

I think its a bit more subtle than that. Imagine on one hand if a printing press was invented that outputs the printed material to anyone in the world for free. At first there could be lots of great materials printed with it, but then the question would be asked - can we start charging money for some of it? Imagine on the other hand if a silver church collection tray was invented that could collect money from anyone of that particular religious persuasion anywhere in the world. At first it could collect great amounts of money, but then the question would be asked - can we do anything else with this silver church collection tray besides collecting money?

Hi! Thank you for your work on the polyfill. There is a healthy inter-vendor discussion in the spec's GH issues, and I believe there is absolutely technical merit to this specific proposal. That's all great and above-board.

> Second, the main chains – the big four as well as the leading “soft” discounter Kwik Save (which stocked a larger range than Aldi) – were listed on the stock exchange. The best way to fight Aldi early on is to slash prices, but few bosses of public companies are happy to accept lower profits, and thus lower bonuses, by pursuing long-term strategies.

This is not at all surprising, but it's rare to see such a clear-cut (more so in context in the article) example of short-termism hurting companies.
The instrument panels on old beater Cessnas, Pipers etc. have a 'slip ball' on the turn indicator which is basically a small ball in liquid. But that shows if the plane is laterally out of balance during a turn.

It is about the only gravity based instrument on the aircraft (because ideally, you would want to keep a steady 1G straight towards the floor of the plane during a turn for passenger comfort).

All other instruments that relate to orientation are gyroscope based, so they constantly reference a point in infinite space. When you are being thrown about in turbulence, or a tight turn, gravity based instrumentation will be all over the place and give false readings.

Pretty much exactly why IFR (instrument flying) rated pilots are trained NOT to rely on the inner ear balance systems to know if they are flying straight and level etc. because the inner ear fluids can be easily tricked by standard flying manoeuvres into thinking you are in a screaming right hand dive when you are in a gentle left hand turn (if you don't have a visual reference to corroborate).

There could still be space for certain hardware solutions. The eap8266 is pretty low power, but adding a bunch of cpu cores is likely to negate that a lot.

Firefox on Android supports extensions and adblockers like ublock! This is a huge advantage.
Nobody is calling Facebook immoral for taking down the ad. However, this is a string argument against Facebook being a neutral platform who just want to connect people and should be left alone from regulation.

They're a nigh monopoly and what happened reinforced that point. Thus, they can't claim they shouldn't be treated and regulated as a monopoly with a straight face.
I see no reason why this would happen. By this reasoning, you can also ban laptops and smartphones.

One design aspect of the original WWW browser that I find interesting is how all info regardless of source collapses to the same style. The absence of CSS with all default block level content.

Yes, their reaction to crashes are terrible. Just look at what happened to Lauda Air Flight 004 that came up in a thread about this yesterday: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lauda_Air_Flight_004#Investiga...

"Lauda attempted the flight in the simulator 15 times, and in every instance he was unable to recover. He asked Boeing to issue a statement, but the legal department said it could not be issued because it would take three months to adjust the wording. Lauda asked for a press conference the following day, and told Boeing that if it was possible to recover, he would be willing to fly on a 767 with two pilots and have the thrust reverser deploy in air. Boeing told Lauda that it was not possible, so he asked Boeing to issue a statement saying that it would not be survivable, and Boeing issued it. Lauda then added, "this was the first time in eight months that it had been made clear that the manufacturer [Boeing] was at fault and not the operator of the aeroplane [or Pratt and Whitney]."[18]"

I find this comment quite bizarre. Have you ever actually tried an Aldi or Lidl?

> Aldi and its slightly-nicer copycats siphon away marketshare from normal stores who actually carry name-brand food and home goods you'd want to buy again

Huh? By name brand food I presume you mean well known with a marketing budget. It's rarely better or if it's from Kraft Mondolez ever worth wanting to buy again. What Aldi achieved though, was allowing me to stop thinking some own-label wasn't even worth trying. They could be markedly and consistently as good or better than brand names with marketing budget. Sure, there's things they can't do well (tea for instance), but unlike the big 4, own label is often best of the lot rather than second rate but cheap.

No need to spend 40-100% extra to fund Kellogs, Nestle, Pepsis, Mondolez's marketing. Those are the names I've often come to trust least after a dozen recipe changes to cheaper ingredients sold for same price, buyouts and general lack of care when it's just one logo in the portfolio of 200.

Offers baiting at Asda (Walmart) or Tesco's etc is far more cynical with end of shelf bad offers put there for placement $$$. They just usually throw out weird, branded, terrible value and expensive as "offer". The "limited best offer" that turns out to be 1.3% off regular price. Aldi middle aisle stuff is usually surprisingly good, for remarkably little, and no end of shelf bullshit.

Price, or penny pinching (nice loaded term btw) is not why we now shop there weekly. Nope, that's because they are better than the alternatives and often than the brands.

So tell me what's the appeal of a "normal" store that carries brands, when many of those brands are worse? When half the brands have been sold on so many times that they're now just a meaningless marketing label. I really don't see it any more.
But not if they were the only newspaper, or the newspaper with more than half of the market, because that would make it look like a monopoly abusing its power.

In Europe, public service broadcasters (like the BBC) have no problem giving time to politicians or others who call for the dismantling of public service. If they didn't that would look really bad.

None of that productivity matters if the company dies due to being hacked into.

You might not even know that this happened. Mysteriously, a clone company pops up, or a competitor seems to know all your contract negotiations and customers.

Another possibility is that a lawsuit over data leakage takes out the company. Sometimes reputation alone can kill a company.

BTW, it's really pessimistic to suggest that an air gap would kill productivity. It isn't that hard to physically transfer files from the computer at your left to the computer at your right.

Despite often seeming like a thin veneer of natural language processing on top of a search engine, I'm sure most users think of their voice assistants, or are willing them to be, a general AI agent. They don't want to have to care what app/skill/web-scrape is involved in enabling a response.

The whole skills ecosystem feels like an awkward stopgap on the path to AI. The language required to invoke them feels particularly clunky - "Alexa, ask ThingFinder about a thing" - and then, is the user supposed to be talking to ThingFinder now, or Alexa? She still sounds like Alexa, but she doesn't seem quite herself.

As developer choosing an invocation name is fraught with difficulty. There are only so many natural sounding names for something which does a particular thing, without incongruously inserting some invented branding word onto it - "Alexa open Tidy Tide Tables". If someone's already using the most natural name you are free to use exactly the same, but then who knows whose skill will be launched? And you'd better make sure your skill's name doesn't clash with anything else in the world at large, like the entire history of music for example, "Alexa play Wicked Game". It's all a bit of a mess.

Considering how many high profile bitcoin thefts occured using hijacked phone numbers, it's probably better not to have that as a reset method.
