Commercial airlines are generally used for long distance trips so they'll naturally rack up more miles between deaths. You'd see the same thing if you compared freight haulers like Swift, Schneider and Walmart to companies that do a lot of local delivery.

Commercial airlines are also flown by a professional crew instead of the public making the utility of the comparison limited at best.

Not only double the cores, also a more efficient and quicker CPU (though with Intel that does not say much in the ~2014-2020 era). DDR4 as well, I guess. With 16 GB RAM you can also easily spin up things like Docker or VMs.
Input Latency Reduction
20 minutes is a lot of time, add that and at the end of the week you got around 2 hours, that's half a morning per week and close to a whole 8h day of work per month just on the time for standups.

It's not just the time itself though, it's the interruption that prevents you from starting longer tasks effectively.

Can't really account for that, work is not only about summing up minutes on a time tracking tool. There is rythm, there is acceleration, there is a productive state and there is deceleration.

Standups disrupt all that without any real benefit, other than serving as a daily reminder that you better hurry up with what you are doing - which most people don't need.
Mine is timed and its ten minutes and that's with me stretching out a little. If we were determined to make it small it could be five.

We have six people in the stand-up.

If you're so sad about being interrupted then maybe you're taking on too much work?

You're ignring the other half of the "balance equation". For example, "providing entertainment to someone who is gambling with a set-aside specific amount of money they can afford to lose" and "providing entertainment to someone who is addicted to gambling and will lose money needed for housing and food".

Sure, both provide some positive value, but that's ignoring the negative side of the balance equation. That makes it where one is net positive on someone's life and the other is net negative on someone's life.
It is often available for download at the manufacturer's site. In my case, I first connected to the tablet using ADB and examined files in the filesystem, found suspicious packages, decompiled them and later checked ROM dump to verify that the backdoor is pre-installed.

On the other hand, it's not really a first-class citizen, it's not available on major services that want eyeballs, subscription fees, etc. And, frankly, a lot of us have just mostly gotten out of the habit of using it because we figure we'll learn about most interesting or important stuff on social media in some manner.

> But I believe there are some simpler reasons for older people’s aversion to newer music. One of the most researched laws of social psychology is something called the “mere exposure effect.” In a nutshell, it means that the more we’re exposed to something, the more we tend to like it.

Yeah, the entire article wouldn't apply to me (35) if it wasn't that little part. I didn't paid much attention to music until my late teens/early 20s, though while i have some genres i like, i always find myself going to different stuff over the years - but that is usually learning about new genres.

But that part explains it really - i learn about music by listening to random music videos made on YouTube (often by unknown artists or channels that mainly promote unknown artists). And YouTube tends to repeat the same (or similar) videos if you leave it by itself :-P.

Though if the topic is popular/mainstream music... i never liked that outside when i was ~12 or something but that was mainly because nothing else was on the TV. Once i had control over what i could listen to, i went my way :-P.

People are not "rejecting your identity" if they use the wrong pronoun. That is an emotional interpretation of an error.
Whether something is a word or not is not binary. "Kdqroeisjxjdoeo" is most definitely not a word. "Dog" most definitely is. "Adorbs" is probably considered not a word by many. I say it is one.

Language changes constantly. It is created by speakers, not by some external authority. Anyone giving the correction "that's not a word" likely has a misguided understanding of the nature of language. A word is something speakers say and hearers understand. New words are made every day and old words fall out of use every day. That's just how language works.

See also complaints about using "literally" to mean "figuratively". The sense of the word is changing to include what was previously its opposite. This is neither the first nor last time that will happen.

Advice on language usage should always be contextual. "Adorbs" is fine on Twitter, probably not a good idea in a contract. As others have pointed out, "certificated" has use in many contexts. Even if it wasn't in known use, the meaning is clear and this kind of pieced together with prefixes and suffixes jargon is quite common these days in technical or semiformal writing.

A simple framework for conducting 1-on-1 meetings
I think the discussion about sports and politics and how they can't be separated is as old as sports itself. I don't agree with the IAAF placing the World Champs in Doha this week, nor FIFA placing the world champs there in 3 years. But the argument that sports can be a positive force does hold water. I don't think disqualifying all non-democracies from holding competitions is the answer, but they need to be held to higher standards than they do now.

In this particular case I think the idea of applying Chinese censorship to people in the US (which is effectively what this is) in order to let the Chinese regime maintain its story about what's going on in HK is absolutely absurd.
I can’t speak to the Christian one, but the Jewish one isn’t about what God says. Orthodox Judaism (which is what Mi Yodea is focused on) has a massive reference work called the Talmud, which is basically a hardcopy wiki that contains all of the decisions and thoughts the rabbis had on how to interpret stuff over a 1000 year period or so. That document in turn is itself very difficult to interpret due to the volume of contractions, initialisms, and self-reference, and because it’s what amounts to a hardcopy wiki, it’s also not well organized. Mi Yodea is mostly about how to read and interpret that document. So yeah, if I squint very hard, it’s about what God wants, I guess, but it’s really about what the rabbis thought about things when they wrote the Talmud, and what current “best practice” is based on their thoughts.

That is why it's important to be mindful of what we are writing, trying to not write things that might be misinterpreted.

Not think, tone can't be inferred from writing so I'm just going to write whatever I want if someone does not like it it's their problem.

It's our problem too to care about the tone of what we write and think about how it's going to come across to other people, and not have this illusion that there is no tone in writing.

Is using "they" as third-person pronoun across the board potentially problematic on SE?

I can get that a person identifying as "she" shouldn't be referred to as "he" and vice-versa, but if somebody's having issues with the only all-inclusive alternative, it's not something anyone should be expected to accommodate for.

I seriously hope this is a straw man. Same thing as the few individuals who make a ruckus whenever they're not referred to as "Dr". If I'm forced to keep track of people's gender identities to be able to contribute, I'm out.
That's a philosophical question, and I think most agree that for their personal definiton of "value", it depends on the type of entertainment.

To build on the slot machine analogy, do you think an RNG that occasionally gives you money (but generally takes it) in a windowless, clockless room has value? And is that value worth the issues caused by them? Does the answer differ for social media?

I don't know the answer, but I think they're questions worth asking.
The "miniscule minority" served by ramps includes pregnant women, the elderly, anyone with so much as a twisted ankle or pushing a stroller.

I'm raising this in the context of the elimination of cars. The current infrastructure pushes a lot of people into taxis. So if you eliminate cars you either have to expand accommodations or just declare the island inhospitable to anyone that doesn't pass a fitness test.

You can support effectively restricting the wealthiest hub of our largest city to just people who are like you and in your life situation, but it's not going to be a widely held position.

Prioratizing education etc. I interacted with young folks and a lot of them thought all this computers and stem was a thing smart people do. Most had not even heard of certain stuff and were short sighted interma of career choices.

The housekeeping chick I talked to told me she had no idea about many stem based things and was studying art history and political science.

>Now she is thinking of giving up the citizenship she worked so hard to get, and moving back to an authoritarian China where guns and drugs are strictly forbidden – at least her son would be safe.

To quote a friend, "all 'authoritarian' states (really, all states) distribute their 'authoritarianism' unevenly. that you aren't experiencing any right now doesn't mean it isn't being done, it just means you're not part of the demographic being targeted."

The commonly understood definition of "authoritarian" is pretty insufficient, since it doesn't capture non-state actors exercising authority, control or violence over your life.

Yes I thought spacechem was about chemistry not alchemy.
> In China, everybody fully supports the government, don't they? I mean that what the Party does, has 100.00% approval rating at all times, there are no Facebook groups for discussing it, there is no activism protesting anything or driving for any kind of change, and everyone there just totally supports everything. (In Mainland China).

I take issue with that description of China because any government that is in power usually is so because large numbers of its citizens supporting it.

That's something absolutely normal, as it doesn't work any other way. But with China, it's somehow made out to be something bad when the Chinese are supportive of their country and government.

Similarly: Facebook ain't the only platform for discussion and organizing, the notion that China doesn't have any such platforms, and thus no counterculture like that, is just silly.

What's worse is the fact that this rhetoric never gives an alternative other than a renaming of a communist command/control economy. Also known as "that thing tried multiple times in the 20th century that led to the direct slaughter or death by starvation of tens of millions". Sometimes shortened to "that thing that never worked".

Then the argument that the banks and high industry are going to be democratic... yea, on paper. Not in practice. It would still be run by a small group of assholes, no different than right now. The difference is, they'll no longer have to be clever on taking tax dollars.

I could potentially agree with anti capitalist rhetoric if they had a shred of understanding human nature. In capitalism, its base nature is everyone is an asshole thus you must out asshole them. The big thing is, you dont need nobility, allowance from the church or any real allowance from a governing body (other than health/safety depending on your NAICS, which I think is important). I wish I could remember the book. But it showed a chart of countries and their average business filing timelines from start to end. Theres a real damn good correlation between the lower day timelines (USA is avg 6 days depending on industry) and the higer GDP per cap. Countries with high timelines, like Russia with their 400+ days to start a business, which really hasn't changed since the CCCP days, have a shit GDP per cap. The same goes with the more socialist countries of europe compared to the more capitalist countries. But in general, starting a business in Europe is a fucking nightmare compared to this side of the pond.

Anyways, the four pests campaign is one of the funniest and saddest events in the 20th century. I love how that shit got swept under the rug.
They seem to be having a good time and some old man is uneasy about it. Nothing to see here.

The thing about uneasy old men, is they are happy only if everyone shares their uneasiness or someone shows up and holds their hand and tells them everything will be all right. If neither happens they get more and more cranky.

Not only can it be true I've done it at a conference, which is to say I've implemented an IPv6 only network for conference delegates and had zero connectivity complaints.

The ingredient you are missing is while the clients only talk IPv6, the gateway they go through (must) have both IPv6 and IPv4 addresses. There is a well defined mapping from IPv4 to IPv6 addresses, so if the IPv6 clients need to communicate with a IPv4 only host they use it's mapped IPv6 address. The gateway then NAT's all those mapped IPv6 addresses to it's IPv4 address.

Which only leave the problem of does an IPv6 client know to use an mapped IPv4 address, given it is supposed to know nothing about the IPv4 world. The answer is you make it use a DNS server that lies. I'll leave it to you to figure out exactly how it lies, but it isn't hard to figure out given it has clients that only understand AAAA records, and some hosts (such as twitter) that only resolve to A records.

Well, the act of timing changes everything. it will affect the total duration as people will deliberately hurry up.

That is actually a good idea, but it's the first time I heard about it. In most companies, this is not done. Also, it's not just the literal time of the meeting.

It's the time people spend waiting for the meeting, chatting, reading email instead of working on their main task for the day.

It's about the interruption cost and the disruption of what you were doing, not about the literal cost in minutes.

Also, most developers don't have a saying in how much work is assigned to them. Usually, they are over assigned already and the cost of the standup is not accounted for in how long tasks should take.

Add all standups of a week, and you have half a morning of work per week down the drain. That's a lot and again that is literal total time only, and does not account for interruption cost.
As a counter point, I have a Vive and while I use it for other games like Elite or Beat Saber, I can't use it for XPlane enjoyably. Controlling the flight stick with the motion controllers feel like trying to control it by poking down on it and is not good for precise or gradual movements.

But I can't map everything to my HOTAS so I need to switch to the motion controllers if I need to operate the autopilot or adjust the qnh etc.

Even on a Cessna there's enough cause to e.g. match the magnetic and gyro indicators that it's unavoidable that this quickly becomes annoying.

And yes, reading the instruments is also difficult.
