For a long time, ABS and airbags were as extras as well. The difference is that a consumer shopping for a car can decide how much safety they want to pay for, while air travelers have no idea how safe the plane they are going to board is.
It isn't very impressive scaling given what are relatively low numbers in the internet age. We aren't really talking much more than 100 requests/posts a second. I have old Rails sites that put through more than that on a 10-year-old CPU.

I am wondering what the issue is, both in why it is failing on relatively low traffic numbers and also why it is they are struggling to fix it for over 3 hours at this point.
Bought the house, then got a long-term assignment/promotion in another city, but 100% plan on moving back in the future.

It's pretty much inexcusable when the safety features have near-zero marginal cost to implement.
That sounds like a stretch even by EU standards when a acting openly envious. Google can warn or ban their misbehaving users for repeated spam violations. They can't ban people on other people's domains. "Legitimate addresses" can still send spam and it could have been caused by ignorant users who think "junk" is for non-immediate deletion and use it to keep their inbox tidy. In fact they /did/ deliver it but prefiltered.

Even if they could kangaroo court it for standard business practices they wouldn't since they don't want to be known as "the dumb fuckers who banned domain based spam filtering" and face pressure from annoyed constituents now receiving piles of spam.
People are different, the processes in their minds goes different ways. People develops different styles of learning and then they adopt to that styles and adopt styles for themselves. So it is pointless to agree or disagree.

I personally like this idea of vim+LaTeX. It is close to what I did while studying math, though I write notes down with pen and paper. Mostly I wrote down them once and read them once before exam.
I remember some issues with this approach, but the one I remember most was due to incomplete recording, not due to "I didn't managed to understand this mess of greek letters while listening a lecture".

I remember some problems due to inability to understand, it was Galua theory, but I solved them by reading books. I had read three different authors on topic, and I think it was the only way, I think that any style of keeping records would not help more then mine.

And I hate to write greek letters by hand. There is one names xi, I never managed to figure out how to write it, so xi looked in my recordings as some messy knot of lines. All my xi's was different, but there was a bright side of this: xi was the only one, that was so messy, so I could understand that it is xi when I saw this mess. With LaTex xi looks nice and clear.
Yes. Such notes are standard for development hardware.

The UK is awful. Worse than American cities. No property tax, non existent/weak tenant laws, and renters have to pay the council taxes (in the US the owner is usually responsible for all HOA and taxes). The deposit protection schemes seem more designed to benefit landlords too.
Also, ABS and airbags actually cost money to deliver to the buyer.

In software upgrades, the marginal cost is near zero.

I'm happy for you to have embarked on the journey of owning your home, but 0% downpayments and what sounds like an increasingly heating up market (people overbidding the asking price) should be a sign to be careful. Make sure to keep the 15-20% cash that is usual for downpayments in a liquid form in case there is a downturn. The people worst hit by real estate crises are those who take advantage of these "easy" ownership offers and then neglect to keep a cash buffer in case their mortgage goes into negative equity.
It does exist in English.
Ironically, it's much easier to turn gold into lead. Simply leave a bar of gold near a fission reactor or other neutron source for a couple of years, and eventually it will turn to lead.
I think it's important to recognise that about 3 million UK long-term settled residents were not allowed to vote, and they were the people most strongly affected by it. And some UK citizens abroad were also not allowed to vote. Perversely given the nature of the issue, non-EU citizens with exactly the same type of migration were allowed to vote.

There were about 3.4 million non-UK EU citizens, many of them settled adults of voting age. They would have voted if they had migrated to the UK and become citizens. But they were told all their lives, that EU citizens don't need to become UK citizens, they have equivalent full rights in almost every respect without doing so, so they lived here in a fully settled way akin to citizenship. Sometimes for decades, with children and grandchildren in the UK. Some of them had respected positions in government.

Any of them, of voting age, could have registered to vote in the referendum if they had known sufficiently far in advance. That is, they could have applied for UK citizenship to do it - though not in the timescale in which the referendum actually occurred.

But EU citizens were discouraged from adopting UK citizenship because there was no need. This led to the perverse situation where non-EU immigrants had the vote, and EU immigrants did not, through no fault of their own.

The UK citizens, of voting age, who were not allowed to vote were all abroad. I expect most of them in the EU.

I'm pretty sure both groups would be pro-EU, and that 3 million number is more than enough to change the result.

So I would not say the Brexit referendum result of 2016 was even the popular result, for any reasonable definition of democracy in my mind.
what if I want to search for something with a comma in it?
To be fair, I don't think the "disagree" light would've helped those pilots any. Knowing that the AoA sensors disagreed isn't going to help them troubleshoot a system they are not aware exists. It's just one more warning to troubleshoot while fighting the aircraft.

If anything, it's MCAS that needs to be heeding the AoA readings disagreement. Instead it's more than happy to only rely on the reading of one of the sensors.
And even if you think you know and airline can always sub out a plane on you and you have no recourse.
It's there, quietly doing its job and covering surges in demand so that hugely expensive gas fired turbines don't have to be spun up. It's saved some stupid amount of money so far.
Yes, at this point I believe the company might sell the product or manage to raise sufficiently to rehire employees and exit at a later stage. In the first scenario the payout will not be as big, but it might still be significant.
I agree with your point about the OPs exaggeration of time ("over the years") however I have to disagree with your rant about "true wireless".

Having a wire around your neck is totally different to having one to your phone. It's actually a nice convenience having a neck wire because:

* you're less likely to lose an odd earphone (something that is more likely when your earphones are like loose change)

* you can pop one earphone out and rest it on your shoulder. eg when shopping and you're in the queue to pay. You can then interact with the cashier without appearing rude

* you get extended battery life as you now only need one BT radio per pair of headphones (this is actually the main reason 3rd party ones are cabled and this is a problem Apple have managed to solve with a custom BT radio controller)

The fact that you can buy after market cords for Apple's wireless earphones says a lot about how it's actually a desirable feature for some people. But another example is people who attach neck cords to reading glasses.

Moreover, I do happen to own corded bluetooth earphones and specifically chose them over "true wireless" because they offered the best of both worlds - liberated me from being tethered to my phone or other playback devices while still giving me the convenience to hang the earphones around my neck while I'm not using them. This was a very calculated decision on my part because I did also look at "true wireless" and was very tempted by them. I'm also adamant that I made the right decision given my usages.
and the reason it won't run Mohave is not caprice but rather a desire to simplify system graphics by moving it to the Metal API along with Metal's using hardware features not yet introduced in late 2009.
This method is beautiful and incredibly complicated. Anyone who has enough determination to build up their tools like this and make them 100% ideal and customized for their situation deserves all the praise they get.

If your use case is similar to the author's, perhaps consider taking your environment and leaning hard into customization. As he's proven, it's very much worth it. Seems like it would be much less useful to copy his configs rather than building your own organic system after years of use, though - which is what he did.

I really like vim, personally, but I encourage my coworkers more familiar with Windows to use nano over vi (nobody wants to type that extra m, for some reason) because they're less likely to mess things up. Better off for them to learn their own way rather than being dumped in the middle of the vi desert with no way to exit.

This seems to be the mainstream view of addiction in many parts of the West, particularly in the US, but is it so hard to believe it's not universal?

Property rights would be come a real slippery slope though. The right to sell/rent your body. Sounds a lot like prostitution and slavery. How would you delineate which parts you own and which ones you can't sell?
As an observer following the space, it is fascinating to me how everything in a given electricity/energy market changes once a given technology (solar, wind, energy storage) becomes "economic". Or, in other words, the best/cheapest on balance option for delivering electricity or primary energy.

Be aware that many current policies in Australia and vested interests are actively AGAINST further development of renewables. So all of this is actually IN SPITE of the regulatory environment, rather than because of it.

It will be interesting to see how prices move given all this new volume that will be coming online in the next decade.

Note for the curious: The reason the above is even possible is because solar and energy storage prices follow the same kind of principles / learning curve behind the proliferation of the microchip and Moore's law. While the curve and "speed" of cost reductions for renewables are no-where near as fast as MicroChips, I can only hope that this trend continues. See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swanson%27s_law
Best comment here. Sydney AU has the same problem. The government is addicted to stamp duty and doesn’t want to do anything about the negative gearing and other handouts for the rich baby boomers. The situation is completely fucked up.

A huge chunk of the Viennese flats are publicly owned.[1] I think it's very hard to replicate for other cities. It's the result of decades of social democratic governance.

Two things they do really well: Keeping rent prices low by "dumping" and preventing ghettoisation by creating affordable housing in every district, not just some crappy areas.

Pretty much every phone in the U.S goes through the hands of a singular distribution point. This company (who I'm not going to name) is responsible for putting the custom image for the cellular provider. The basic phone that arrives from the manufacturer is going to be wiped, and re-imaged.

For something like this to survive that, it's either 100% known about (U.S side) or chip based.
That might be true in general, but actually that won't always work. This is a great indicator int he run up to the protests at the weekend. It's also a great stick to beat the government with - so it makes news now, and it makes new when the government inevitably has to reject it.

Why is there a Chinese flag in the article and not a Finnish flag?

Because it gives more attention.

The real story here is that the venerable brand of Nokia now is being used to sell sub-quality phones.
If smoking, alcohol, and gambling had the same affects on all fully grown adults as it did on people with developing minds we probably wouldn’t have them.

They’re at a much higher risk for addiction, much higher risk for permanent brain impairment from alcohol, imagine if those risks and effects were instead just the baseline for everyone. For example, somehow even moderate drinking at 30 would permanently damage your brain as much as it can damage a growing brain (it can already be bad enough for the 30 year old brain but it’d be even worse) it’s hard to imagine drinking would be the viewed the same way
The opinion that fewer immigrants will mean less crime. That our trade deal in the EU exposes our companies to unfair competition. That fewer immigrants will help preserve 'our' way of life. That we will be free to reach our own trade deals with other countries. Most of Brexit is about forward-looking hopes and expectations. I don't believe it, but it's hard to disprove because what do people even mean by 'our' culture, etc?
Not necessarily true. If the rate of return is changed some people who would have invested their money this will not. Properties might come to the market later because it’s not worth it to pay the premium to have workers come in on Saturday for example. Developers will be less willing to pay extra for legal services to get through the planning process faster. I’m sure there are other similar effects I’m missing as an outsider to property development.
I've found that sometimes a "why was this downvoted" response to an irrationally downvoted question can turn it from grayed out to black again.

Herd mentality for sure.
An angle of attack sensor is loosely equivalent to a G-meter in a car. Calling it a safety device is a bit of tabloid reporting.

That said, given the sensors are used directly as input having a disagree light is a reasonable thing to expect.
Well that's certainly gone a long way towards not helping with any existential dread I might be feeling.
The Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO) manages the electricity grid to which the Tesla battery connects and AEMO is reporting the battery works very well at helping them manage that grid.

What you say is all true, but nothing of what you said is enough to displace the investors walking in and paying 20% over asking price in cash. And there are plenty.

I’ve recently learned that a whole building next to North Line terminal was taken off the market and sold wholesale to investors.

The problem is not the petty burgeois pulling a little speculative profit (oh well, there’s also that, see Airbnb) but the mega funds buying off whole block at a time because they can
Totally agree, most of them are hard assed companies with no morals and very loose practices.

One place I used to rent from tried to swindle my deposit for "repairs" of things that were clearly just standard wear and tear over the years.

I argued till I was blue in the face and they eventually agreed with me on most of the things and agreed to "refund" me. They messed up somehow and transferred me 2x my initial deposit, normally I would absolutely let them know about their mistake but as they messed me around for months I didn't say a word and kept it. Suprise suprise they went out of business a few months later
Is there a downside to doing this?
> Amsterdam is growing and becoming the de fact European capital (english, tech jobs, etc)

I would argue this is more true for Berlin, since it has English, tech jobs and the government of the biggest European national economy.
Or, you know, train the pilots. Boeing is trying to get the blame off their backs. It can go to the airlines now.

Let's not pretend all Americans, much less all American gun owners, subscribe to the "cold dead hands" mentality, are arming themselves against the government, or even oppose gun control. Despite what many people would say, it is even possible for Democrats, liberals and "leftists" to own guns for their own self-defense and to believe in the 2nd Amendment.

Yes, that ideology describes a lot of (if not the majority) of outspoken gun owners, but "outspoken gun owner" tends to be a self-selected filter for pro-NRA identity politics.
There are a number of articles on RenewEconomy about its performance that explain it various successes and profitability:

Personally, I'm done with Dyson. James was a vocal supporter of Brexit, gets what he wants, then decides to move his company's HQ to Singapore. That kind of blatant hypocrisy taints their products for me.
Laypeople and technical people from other domains are usually not privy to these things, and they can be very interesting indeed.

Imagine if all the machine learning guys came out of the woodwork whenever someone posted an "inside look at the machine learning black box" type of article in order to declare that the article is pointless because everyone knows this stuff.
Look: ABS and airbags cost a considerable percentage of the car's total price.

An AOA difference indicator price is negligible compared to the total cost of an aircraft.
Why do renters need to live in brand new houses?
FYI a lot of HN users flag non-tech/politics submissions wholesale. Either because they don't feel they fit the HN topic, or because these topics often devolve to flamewars.
In the US at least, the 21 yo drinking age is mostly a wholly pragmatic law [EDIT: laws. It's state by state but there was a big federal stick attached to highway funding.] to reduce teenage drunk driving (which affects more than the individual). Tobacco sales is mostly 18 in the US (although a few states are 21). Casinos also vary although the drinking age restricts <21 yo in a lot of casinos.

It's hard to make an intellectual case for disparities between things like voting age, military service (which is why the US voting age was reduced to 18 in the first place), drinking/gambling/smoking, age of consent, etc. but pragmatism still sometimes wins out.
It's standard equipment on new Cessna 172's and marketed as "Safe Flight", specifically called out as a way to avoid a stall, etc. When the industry says it's a safety thing, it's hard to blame a reporter.
Well, they tried to fix an airframe stability problem (caused by fitting larger/heavier engines to an existing airframe platform) with a fly-by-wire solution.

Kinda like if you or I could rent an 18-wheeler truck with a promise that it "drives just like a car."

One wonders: Did outside air temperature or weight-and-balance issues figure in to these crashes? Hotter=less lift. Weight too far aft=nose up tendency.
No, I rather have the option for cheaper price. I'll accept the slightly higher risk.
1700 pages of notes would translate to 9 pages/working-day in a year. That's a lot of note taking.
The blog post is wonderful and does show outstanding LaTeX and VIM practical knowledge, but I'd be skeptical that the average student could absorb so much content and still have time to bring it to such a polished final format every day.

Nonetheless, there's definitely a lesson to be learned here with respect to the usage of templates. In essence it seems like OP developed his own shorthand language for both text and mathematics. I'm always curious to hear about approaches that try to solve the bandwidth problem (as we have quickscript [1] for hand-writing and stenography [2] for typing). Most interestingly, I'd be curious to know whether these short-hand notations are actually capable of improving learning and assimilation, and whether they'd work for a general audience.

I seem to remember reading about an incident recently where pilots noticed divergent sensor reading and aborted take-off.

It would seem that AoA disagreement would be the very first symptom of the failure that lead to these crashes. Since pilots are likely not to immediately notice this (hence the indicator), this feature may well have given them additional time to sort out a response. Depending on how this failure progressed, it may have even been discovered on previous flights or before take-off.
It's comforting knowing the airline I usually fly on bought both options. I wonder if we could mandate these options being public and who ordered what, so that airlines are more hesitant to leave them out?

Reminds me so much of the car market though. Adding a $3 thermistor is "automatic temperature control" and requires a trim level that costs $1,400 more.
I can't see how "Revoke article 50 and remain in the EU" is pro-brexit personally...
We already had a robust set of tools in our technology stack to help us scale. Our primary tool is a combination of Amazon CloudFormation and Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) which we use to automatically deploy and scale instances in response to demand. Backing these instances is a PostgreSQL RDS database which acts as our primary data store. One other component in our stack is Amazon ElastiCache, a key-value store configured with the open-source Memcached engine, which caches generated fragments of HTML so we can speed up page build times.
