> The manual trim is now too hard to move, increasing back pressure on the yoke is needed to counter the trim, and you don't want to throttle back, because the pitch up from the engines is all that's keeping you from diving. At this point, really your only course of action might be to re-enable electric trim

That doesn't jive with the Indonesian Air crash or how MCAS works. MCAS makes repeated minor adjustments and the pilots can compensate for them. Which the Indonesian pilots did 20 some times before inexplicably stopping. You can see it pretty clearly in this image:

https://spectrum.ieee.org/image/MzE4Mjg2OQ.jpeg

So I don't see how the Ethiopian air gets into a situation where they can't manually trim. They should have been able to get back to a neutral stabilizer position, disabled electronic control, and manually trim from there.
Very sloppy article.

It starts with philosophy, jumps around to a few scientific facts, then gets to main point of "vibrations may make consciousness" (in new study posted last year!). But two links are to article research gate article from 2011 (not last year at all).

https://www.researchgate.net/publication/263491208_Kicking_t...

Does that article even suggest what they are saying? Beats me. Probably beats you too. Maybe they are banking on that?

And then, to top it all off, it ends up with "everything might be conscious because everything vibrates!".

Just... bad. Sorry to say and no hate intended but come on! The world, the internet does not need more trash. If you are going to take the time to write, make it solid.
Maybe a tolerant society can exist without censorship. But censorship is no the only way not to tolerate intolerance. If advocating against free speech makes you a pariah, then society does not tolerate intolerance even though it is legal.

Another possibility is that there are other mechanisms that can protect tolerance, such as a constitution that is very hard to change. The paradox of tolerance would not apply to societies that have such a mechanism, but still would be valid for others.
I'm glad Thailand and Australia offered (albeit if only verbal) protection. This is one of those circumstances were typical regulations just don't make sense and need to be shortcut for a clear emergency.

Edit: To add, all parties in this emergency agree it was necessary, so they didn't do anything without consent.
I use this extensively in a production codebase to help facilitate keeping things DRY across multiple languages/filetypes (java, xml, less, html) while not locking me into a framework since, at the end of the day, if I want to stop using cog, I'm still left with completely normal code.

I've layered a kind of DSL (more Python in comments with a different marker) on top of cog so multiple files can reference the same metadata (domain model fields in my case) when doing the codegen.
> Even if you have an address table where all the columns are not null you might not have an entry in that table for a user so what would you like user.address to return?

IMO, the best general solution is: if a relationship has a fixed cardinality of exactly one in the direction of interest, trying to traverse it should return the exactly one item it refers to.

If a relationship has any other cardinality (fixed at some number > 1, variable between 0 and 1, variable between 0 and +∞, variable between 7 and 13, ...), trying to traverse it should return a container (set, bag, list, generator, ...) of values, whose cardinality will be the actual cardinality of the relationship.

(That's really just as true if the underlying DB uses nulls or magic values or whatever else to indicate missing data; and, yes, returning application language nulls from low level database routines may be a convenience for those implementing the higher level abstraction layer on top of that low-level interface, but once you get into the mode layer there's not a great reason for presenting NULLs -- except in the special case of languages where the NULL is the empty list or another appropriate empty container.)

What an odd way to structure that threshold. 1% of the population of Wyoming is 5,800 people. 1% of California is almost 400,000. And 1% of the country is 3.3 million.

Okay, so that's a basis. The only issue here being that you don't consider a non-absolute basis to be valid. However, the deity of choice isn't absolute either - you have to deem it so in the same way that the atheist does. So either way there's no perfect ontological solution provided by either path.

Anyway, Komodo is very remote and there's no easy trip there and back, it's either a multi-day seasick inducing trip from Bali or a puddle jumper over to Flores before riding a boat for a couple of hours so you can watch a guide toss some meat slop at the lizards and maybe push one away with a stick if it gets too close. Hard to imagine how closing the area off to tourists is going to help anything.
The physical analogy is different because a hundred years ago we couldn't infer a lot of very sensitive and private information from easily accessible public info. Hell - our longest lived president was wheelchair bound and wouldn't have won his last election or two in the modern day. The only reason he got in was because they hid his disability from the public. Can you imagine trump getting away with that now?

Back in the day of physical goods privacy was plentiful. Now it's a scarcity. The difference is not just between physician and intangible property. It's a complex matrix and at some point we have to protect citizens to accomodate to the world that we live in.

Funny you say that, as we use Cog to avoid having to deal with C++ templates and their associated pains. The nice thing about Cog is that it operates like any Linux command-line tool, just at the text level, and as a result, if something has gone wrong at the compilation phase, you can see what was fed into the compiler to see what exactly was generated. Interpreting C++ template error outputs is an art in and of itself.

To estimate out how much slack there is in local distribution systems, you want to look at the demand curve rather than the duck curve. Further, you want to look at the peak of this curve on a high-demand day -- for California, that means a hot summer day. For northerly regions it will be a cold winter day.

http://www.caiso.com/TodaysOutlook/Pages/default.aspx

It looks like the minimum CAISO demand today -- during the shoulder season -- was 19 gigawatts.

Here are the CAISO historical peak loads from 1998-2018:

https://www.caiso.com/Documents/CaliforniaISOPeakLoadHistory...

The peak last year was 46 gigawatts on July 25. The peak in 2017 was 50 gigawatts on September 1. So I do think it's fair to say that there is a 2x factor of minimum:maximum use on at least some existing grids.

There's one more issue, of course: how much minimum-period slack is left on the day of high demand conditions? Using the date picker on the demand curve to go back to July 25, 2018, it looks like demand bottomed out at 26 gigawatts around 4:00 AM. There is still a significant diurnal variation in demand that could be used for several hours of nighttime EV charging without increasing system capacity.
Can you use pyu2f with ssh? It’d be great to have a ssh binding to fido2, with full support for new algos and resident keys, instead of gpg/pkcs11.

Facebook makes money by selling advertising space on its feed. It builds advertising friendly profiles of users that marketers use to target for their ads. You can setup a Facebook ad campaign today and see it for yourself. OP made its profile open for anyone to log into and potentially make edits. For example, changing his birthday, connecting to new people, new likes and dislikes, are all signals back to FB. They would no longer have a realistic advertising profile on OP. If everyone did what OP, then the overall advertising value proposition to marketers greatly diminishes. They can no longer say with a good degree of accuracy, "I am targeting 20 year olds who work in tech."

Technically, addition is mostly commutative (a phrase I just made up) in IEEE 754. On the one hand, we have:

> Everything nowadays is about "equal this" and "equal that", no one recognizes that opportunities do not automatically lead to outcome.

You seem to suggest that the fight for equal opportunity and individual responsibility are at odds of each other, or maybe that equal opportunity is not a valid concern, but if you had to bet on either of two identical humans with exceptional work ethic, with the only variable being access to education, you'd go with the one that has more access.
As others have mentioned, it truly would benefit you to discuss this with a therapist. Even though you are using a throwaway account, I can tell that you're still holding back a bit. You need to openly express how you feel with another human being in an environment where you feel safe to be your self and to just let go.

From a personal perspective, you are not alone. While some have pointed out "that's why they call it work", there are others of us that have felt that crushing weight and know something isn't quite right in a future full of that experience. It's normal to feel that way from time to time. It's abnormal to feel that way day in and day out. And it doesn't necessarily have to be a mental issue. It could just be that you are only 20 and you might be finding out really early that this career path isn't for you. Regardless, please do take some time to seek out a professional and openly discuss it.

> people focus too much on the negative value of data without considering the positive value. If the positive value is definite and the negative value is remote, we shouldn't let the existence of that negative value prevent us from receiving the positive value.

Mmmhhh, I have personally the opposite feeling (people focus too much on the positive side of data/app and underestimate the negative side, which is how Facebook & Google & others can continue to thrive).

> If the positive value is definite and the negative value is remote, we shouldn't let the existence of that negative value prevent us from receiving the positive value.

E.g. those poor people in Nigeria definitely got a definite positive value while actively sucking oil from the ruptured pipeline, ignoring negative remote outcome (of blowing up), until it blew up.

I cannot ignore remote potential outcomes... .

"Does anyone know if they are catching the criminals that steal the animals, and where they are being exported to?"

Unfortunately, this would likely devolving into arguments similar to the plastic pollution in the ocean. When we know it's all the same countries doing the crimes, it looks like some kind of racism or stereotyping.

So either we ignore who the culprits are or we can be mature and civily discuss why these same country's culture seem to thrive on certain consistent destructive behaviors.

> There's practically zero chance that will happen - either that the existing companies will "clear out" or that the same role would be filled by anything with a different business model.

Are you going to justify that claim? It's been made repeatedly about prior companies that were too big to fail, especially tech giants, and they all fall or become obsolete.

> In the real world where Facebook will continue to exist, is there anything that the company or its employees could do that would meet with your approval?

I gave an example: "we've ended our policy of treating users as the product." You're repeating this rhetorical question without addressing any of the points I made or adding anything new.

type My_Arr is array (1..10) of Natural;

Speaking as someone who works in PL research (but keeping in mind that I'm still low on the totem pole, i.e., I don't have a PhD)... I don't know what this is supposed to mean.

Based on the first word being `type`, I'm guessing this is a type declaration for a new type named `My_Arr`. And `is array` makes me think that this is an array of some kind. But then I get to `(1..10)` and I'm lost. Is this a dependent type? Is it an initialized value? I'm genuinely not sure. The `of Natural` at the end tells me that `My_Arr` is an array of natural numbers, I guess, but I'm lost on the `(1..10)` bit. I figure it could either be:

a) `My_Arr` is the type of arrays of natural numbers of length 1..10 (is that inclusive? exclusive? unsure) or
b) `My_Arr` is the type of arrays consisting of only the natural numbers 1..10 (again, unsure whether inclusive or exclusive)

Or I guess it could be something else, though I'm not sure exactly what that'd be.

My_Fancy_Obj : not null access My_Arr := ...

I guess this is defining an... object? It can't be a type declaration because there's no `type` keyword (which I had previously assumed to indicate the beginning of a type declaration). But this syntax is strange. I assume `My_Fancy_Obj` is the name of the instance in question, so `x : y := z` must mean "create an object named x of type y and store the result of evaluating z there". (I'm guessing based on what I know of other languages.)

`not null access` is weird to me. I mean, "not null" is straightforward enough (`My_Fancy_Obj` can never have a null value), but I'm not sure what "access" means. Is it a reference type? Like a pointer? Or something? I dunno what else it could be.

So `My_Fancy_Obj` is really a box (reference/pointer) containing a `My_Arr`, and it can never be null.

Now... looking at the initialization...

... new My_Arr'(1..4 => 0, others => 1234);

I'm so lost haha.

I guess the values 1..4 (inclusive? exclusive? shrug) are initialized to zero. And the "others" are initialized to... the value 1,234? I guess? But how long is this array? The presence of an `others` keyword (I'm assuming it's a keyword, or an initialization argument I suppose) tells me that it must be obvious to the interpreter/compiler exactly how many values there are. So... I guess that means `My_Arr` is actually an array of exactly length 10? Why on earth would they have the `array (1..10)` syntax for that, instead of like `array 10` or `array(10)` or something. That's confusing.

So I guess we end up with something like `[0, 0, 0, 0, 1234, 1234, 1234, 1234, 1234, 1234]`?

Anyway, this example did not achieve your desired result — at least, not from my perspective.
