Not quite. Boeing said they didn’t want to deluge pilots with information when training them on the new plane and that existing manual procedures cover how to deal with the problem by disabling a system. Aka they didn’t see changing training or the manual as an immediate solution.

But the final report of the first crash isn’t even out yet. Which I find interesting considering all the finger pointing going around (even by arm chair “concerned citizens” in this thread).

Assuming we even know what happened I doubt the solution will end up being a training thing and most likely updates to the software, UX, and/or the addition of back up AoA sensors.
I had an incident on the way out of high school. Mom hired a lawyer and wanted to fight but I didn't g.a.f. I went off to college and didn't look back. Saved the lawyer fee, never cared.
I think they had basically no experience with snow removal and tried to "improvise" a solution. There were plenty of people who cracked their windshields by following the meme advice "boil water and pour it over your winshield to de-ice it quickly. Meanwhile northerners know you have to scrape it. It is clever but wrong as an approach.

There was a part in Kon-Tiki where Heyerdahl says that after a month or so out in the ocean, they realized that it was easy to navigate between islands. First sail north or south to the latitude of your destination. Then sail east or west, maintaining the latitude to the destination. If you were confident about your position and heading, you could mix N/S and E/W motion to get there faster.
It's probably too late to follow up on this, but dude c'mon, that's not what I'm saying.
California doesn't enforce non-competes so it's very easy to for employees to start a new business with little risk of being sued. Eg: you could work for Google self-driving car division, and leave and start a competing company. It happens all the time.

Depends on the type of selling. Face to face? Online? Direct? Narrow it down and go sell.

But how do you start? You just do. There is no tutorial. The one thing that helps is selling things you know about and can provide an educated opinion on the subject.

No, you’re totally right. I’ve made a fortune and lost it (like 200k) and there was no skill on my part in either direction.

I think this is exactly it. As someone who has been using solely DuckDuckGo for a couple years, including for technical searches (I'm a software developer), I find using Google noticeably frustrating
because Google doesn't give me the results I'm looking for but DDG does.

I think I'm just used to the nuances of DDG where others (who currently use Google) are used to the nuances of Google. You get used to crafting search queries in a specific way, and having to change it is noticeable.
It is a massive achievement just like the home made car I mentioned.

The car has to compete against Tesla, Ford, Toyota though, does it cut it?
Does Haiku cut it against Linux, Windows, the BSDs?

Maybe I have unreasonable expectations that it should.

The car can exist for its own sake. The builder had fun making it after all. I thought the idea was that we were all going to be driving round in our own home made cars.

So am I judging it on the engineering skill of the builder, as his hobby project? Or an I judging it as my next potential car?

I can forgive that home built car not having crumple zones, radio, opening windows. They are hard to do, as a car buyer they are basic things I expect.
That Redhat don't like Docker is not surprising :) Whether their tooling will supplant Docker is more debatable.

From what I've seen they don't have huge traction outside of Redhat for their stuff, so all the other major players in the space (Google, Microsoft, Amazon etc) are not shifting to use Redhat's stack.

so the challenge is, can they convert developers from using the easy to use Docker, to their newer more complex setup? I'm not sure I'd bet on that. Anecdotely, it doesn't feel to me like Openshift is winning the "Kubernetes distro" fight, if what I see on reviews is anything to go by it's mostly kubeadm, kops, Rancher or GKE/AKS/EKS.

So Redhat replace bits with their tooling, Google do the same (kaniko, GVisor et al) Amazon continue to push Fargate and serverless, there's not a unified "replace docker" effort, more a splintering of tooling/services.

My personal view is that on Dev. desktops Docker still provides the best experience. That will continue to keep them relevant until someone else can replicate/exceed that experience.
Unless there is something special going on.. experience seems to be a property of matter itself.

Which could mean everything is aware to some extent. People, dogs, rocks, etc.. But because of our big complicated brains that can hold memories and all that - we are aware of being aware.

The characteristics of paper elections are well understood and can be shown to be sound very easily to any common citizen. The massive attack surface of electronic elections is poorly understood even by technical people. It's a massive amount of complexity and expense for exactly zero gain.
Something I've heard a landlord argue was that if he lowered his rent that would mean his property value would go down which would mean his loans/mortgages would not be covered. He would rather take a couple months of losses than devalueing his property.

I have no idea if the math works out for that, and he was negotiating, but he didn't budge a cent and we took our business elsewhere so it did seem like his hands were tied the same as your example.
> Why wouldn't the brain...

Because it isn't how brains work. Recollection is re-experience.

The article you link says researchers taught a model how to match patterns to letters, given the presumption that they are letters, for a single subject's MRIs taken while they were experiencing the sight of words and letters. Not at all the same as saying a brain stores data.
Just another FUD hit piece.
So I can't have my fuel-saving super-efficient quiet vehicle because you're upset with the people who buy a Harley specifically to be loud?

Banning motorcycles will not fix loud noises. They'll just buy loud trucks and cars and/or "upgrade" them to be loud.

I watch for other motorcycles because motorcyclists wave at each other as they pass. Around here (Colorado) it's maybe 1/20 motorcycles that are louder than a car under normal conditions. Probably 1/12 or so that are louder than a car when they're driving like an asshole.

I honestly encounter loud cars more often than motorcycles, usually when some idiot thinks I pulled up to the light on my motorcycle to race them in their civic. (When I'm just on my way to or from the damn grocery store)

Though if you're looking for the loudest thing on the road, I'll grant that it's usually some 60 year old dude on a Harley.
I believe what they're saying is that they don't want to rent to you and a bunch of your friends as a group but as an individual you can rent a room and you will be sharing the house with other individuals to whom they rent individual rooms. I'd guess this is because they don't want a big group of students renting the place together and turning it into a frat house.
absolute nonsense
I think you're right. The sound seems to be part of the appeal, for whatever reason.

That stat has nothing to do with the water supply; it's due to crappy plumbing in school construction there.

In this case the “make it” part is yet to happen.
No, i don't think so at this time.

Previously i worked on a on-premise HR solution which had lots of problems with technical debt. I think even in this case it wouldn't have helped to have some kind of tool, since the problem was not really to know what to do but "how" to do it.

We approached the problem by extracting domain-isolated "microservices" (i.e. separate modules). This worked quite well, but had the usual drawback of being "only" technical, not helping the users in any way. Bad from the POV of a manager :-)
This is a great opportunity to remind everyone that the less-known field of Economic Geography [0] exists.

If California's state government mismanages things so badly that the costs imposed by being in California exceed the network benefits things could change very quickly. Until such a day, it is likely that they will enjoy a significant advantage in producing tech stuff. Location benefits are far greater than the pundits realise, some things are nearly impossible in practice if you aren't located in a key hub for your industry.

You can start by reading bullet points here: https://publicsuffix.org/

In a nutshell adding your domain there makes the subdomains completely isolated (they can't set cookies for higher level domain).

This is a good idea if you're hosting user pages as subdomains.

We do not keep a history of your searches and has no user profile.

We do not use third-party analytics tools, so your IP is not shared that way.

Your IP is anonymized immediately in our analytics tool (self-hosted Matomo), and we don't store your queries there.

We anonymize our raw weblogs, which are only used for debugging purposes, after 5 days.

We do have to pass on your IP to Microsoft at the moment, but you have the option to turn off personalized results (the "filter bubble", basically) on the search result page. We are working on getting permission to further tighten the privacy options here, but Bing requires a certain volume before they're willing to discuss it (several million searches/month) as we discussed with their VP of Search Partnerships in Europe. So we're on-par with Ecosia right now, but working to be on-par with DDG.
Could you please explain what you mean by "varying relational algebra/logic"? Didn't understand that at all. I only know SQL.
I think it's more cultural than anything else. SQL, despite being declarative itself, has a more imperative feel to it for some people (recursion being at the fringes of its standard) and people seem to believe more declarative means slower and more difficult to comprehend. The former is true only due to the implementation effort that went into SQL engines and the latter is plain false.

It probably doesn't help that the standard presentation of Datalog looks very much like Prolog, which most people think is an esoteric and failed programming language.

As for its limitations, it's disciplined in a number of ways, but those are features rather than shortcomings. So you can see in the post that it employs syntactic restrictions to ensure domain independence, it doesn't allow function symbols to have termination. It requires predicates that are not purely logical (extralogical) to satisfy certain conditions for safe execution. These make sure that your queries are well-behaved even before you start running the query. There is research on relaxing these restrictions (cough my work cough) without compromising on the nice properties that come along with it.

The nice thing is of course that if you want to do the same for SQL you start with pandora's box open and try to contain the chaos inside again, while with Datalog you're carefully trying to make the best out of it without unleashing madness. The latter is a much nicer foundation.
And allowing a small percentage of Americans to own unlimited wealth (which they also use to disproportionately influence politics to maintain the status quo) is morally justifiable how?
What is stopping The Public from watching electronic ballots just as equally as electronic ballots?

If I wanted to see paper ballots, how is that different from wanting to see electronic ballots? I'm not confident that I could successfully petition Government for paper ballots just as much as I could sue a given contractor for same electronic records.
> The thought of flying on a commercial airliner with no inherent stability, akin to a fighter jet, is horrifying to me.

What hysteria. Relaxed static stability, or some degree of longitudinal static instability (not the same as "no inherent stability") is one potential option for reducing fuel consumption and emissions in future aircraft configurations (as correctly pointed out by multiple commenters, the 737 Max is not designed this way). To what degree that's safe depends on how the artificial stability is maintained in the presence of individual and common-mode failures. For a long time, orthodoxy and knee-jerk thinking precluded long-range transport on only two engines, or fly-by-wire, or primarily composite airframes. With decades of engineering and actual data behind them, these have now become standard.

Michael Crichton's Airframe treats this kind of knee-jerk thinking, and the dangers inherent in using terms like "stability" that have a huge gap between laypersons' perception and engineers' understanding.
Russian Dictatorship? Don't make me laugh boy! Maybe I am wrong but Russia isn't promoting the falling of governments around the world, that's something that US does.
The point of an analogy is to make a phenomenon understandable by showing a formal correspondence to phenomenon that is already understood. I've just spent 3 posts explaining that this analogy fails on multiple levels, so the argument by analogy is invalid.
Yup. I don't work in CA but it's obvious that CA laws affect us too, for better or worse: CA emission standards, Prop 65 warnings, etc.

And I know my salary and benefits are abnormally good because the HQ is in the bay area. Local companies don't give as much.

I feel like I got the best draw by working for a CA company outside of CA.
It’s the Dalton, GA effect — why do carpet companies set up their manufacturing in Dalton? Because that’s where people make carpets. To put it another way, current industrial capabilities contain historical path dependencies that are hard to replicate artificially. In the case of SV (+ Bay Area), the nexus of speculative capital, incumbent tech firms, a startup ecosystem, and top-tier technologists is basically impossible to develop artificially. While the geography of the area may expand — I’m no local, so it’s beyond me why East Bay hasn’t seen significant expansion — it’s hard to imagine SV being displaced as the center of American tech prowess.
So you would have been morally justified to return escaped slaves back in the day? The moral thing to do would be to just focus on getting the law changed?

You're misunderstanding the point of Debian.

Debian's "stable" release is that. Stable. No updates are issued for packages except for critical security updates, which are backported to the released version.

It's essentially an LTS release. This isn't what everyone wants or needs, but if you do, Debian does it very well.
Thanks!

That's a tough stance for a government to take. I guess using proxies, VPNs (w IPSec), and overlay networks like Tor and i2p would be made illegal too?

DNS based blocking is easy to get around: It is known to not work effectively. Content based blocking can be done away with TLS. And... IP based blocking wouldn't scale [0], one would think, and def isn't reliable because of ElasticIPs offered by Cloud Providers like AWS, like you point out.

This might push them to take desperate measures like force ISPs to stop peering with the internet backbone altogether (or worse, nationalise ISPs), which might set a dangerous precedent for other powerful countries to follow.

This doesn't sound good, at all.

Now you can demonstrate to anyone what you voted. That's how you get people selling votes. In any reasonable election system you need to be able to be sure your vote is being counted without at the same time being able to prove who you voted for. The demands of voting are incredibly unsuited to digital systems and definitely to any online voting. For every layer of extra complexity you add there's either a way to subvert it to break another of the essential guarantees of voting or to use it to DoS your election.

is this true?

I feel like by dealing with a part of the problem you first have an understanding of the system as a whole so that you can isolate the root cause aka the part of the problem it's not route in terms of the base or foundation of a problem it's root in terms of dealing with the actual causal issue

When I first moved to Amsterdam, I gave myself a 3-month "trial period" to figure out if I could find work and if I wanted to stay. This sounded then like a good amount of time, but it goes by much quicker than you think. I only started to contact people when I arrived and looking back now, I probably should’ve started much earlier. Building a network is a slow process, so you have to start before you quit your job.

it's slow and hard? who knew. How does someone with no experience move in one of the most expensive cities and suddenly have a good living? Yeah a lot of stuff does not add up.

That's not quite fair. They're not even printed on the same size page! XHCI has much bigger margins. Compared to EHCI, it's 4 times as many pages, but only 3 times as many words. Plus, adding diagrams can help clarify, rather than adding complexity. And XHCI now has a glossary!

Anyway, is that a lot for a technical specification? Most programming languages I've used in the past year have had longer specs than that (if they have one at all). Even plain C is over 500 pages now.

The biggest concern I have here is requiring an oscilloscope. Nothing here looks like it should require an actual physical layer. Why was USB designed to conflate these layers in the first place? The whole OSI stack might be silly but separating the physical layer has always been a great idea.

There were 41k flights until May 2018 [1]. I was not able to find the current number but with 350 models delivered so far and 4 average flights per day that would sum up to ~500k flights in total at most (but more probably half of that due to ramping up the deliveries).

With 2 accidents the rate is now 4/million. That's at least an order of magnitude difference more than the average of the modern jetliners [2]
