Cat II/III use ILS which send out signals on the runway(s) in question. IIRC, those signals need to be monitored to make sure they're with-in certain tolerances because II/III is used in minimal visibility conditions, so there's very little time to correct things at the last minute. It's about trusting a whole bunch of equipment to work properly because you're basically flying with a blind fold on otherwise.

This Garmin G3000-based system primary uses GPS/WAAS (and perhaps VORs) to get location data, so accuracy may not be with-in necessary tolerances for day-to-day use, but it's better than nothing for emergencies.
That is the popular understanding of Citizens United ("CU"), but "money is speech" had been the law for a long time before that. People have the right to "assemble and petition for redress." CU just said ~"given that people speak with their wallets, and people have a right to assemble, do people have the right to assemble and speak with their wallets at the same time?" So the Court said yeah. Really very innocuous. It's the side-issues that people are foisting onto CU.

Like, wealth disparity. Maybe the problem isn't that people can buy MAGA hats and radio spots, but that a small group have such a large percentage of the money they can easily buy "all" the ads. The way to fix that isn't to restrict how people speak and use their wealth, but to address the wealth disparity itself.

Then the other huge but undecided side-issue is the fact that corporate law allows companies to keep most all their info secret, money, members, etc. So when you combine CU-money with the "dark"-laws regarding corporate governance you get dark money. Again, the way to fix that is to address corporate disclosures.
Charles, I really appreciate your effort here. But, boy! you choose the wrong name for the CRM. Search engine will be filled with Microsoft Dynamics results.
No, my point here is that a lot of people don't interact with their neighbors at all. I've had loud neighbors in the past and when I've had a problem gone directly to them and asked them to rectify said issue. They have generally complied.

The point is that if we were all better in "public relations" and de-escalation, we wouldn't need the cops at all. But if the default answer is just simply "call the cops" then people do feel attacked and they tend to get defensive.
With all respect, I guess you haven't been following the Catalonian affair that closely then. To me it unfortunately looks like enforcement of laws around this issue has long become politicized to the point of endangering the rule of law, fair and objective administration of justice and the protection of fundamental rights such as the freedom of speech and assembly.
> Throughout his career, Witten conducted research into gravitation, quantum gravity, and general relativity. The last one of these is the theory first put forward by Albert Einstein that proposes that gravity is essentially a warp or curve in the geometry of space-time caused by mass.

In addition to the point made by the sibling comment, these facts are consistent with an attack on Joe Biden for having an apparent conflict of interest, even if there was no evidence that he intentionally, corruptly used his power to benefit his son. (If he did, would you expect there to be any evidence?) Ethical public officials are expected to avoid apparent conflicts of interest.

"Assault weapons" is a purposely misleading term designed to generate the confusion with "assault rifles" that you're currently experiencing. Assault rifles are indeed illegal to purchase without extensive paperwork and fees, and then only if the weapon itself was registered and grandfathered in before 1986. These weapons are heavily regulated and cost tens of thousands of dollars, despite being effectively never used in crime even at the time they were banned.
Everybody is in favor of simplification until it eliminates the complex part that benefits them. Eliminating the mortgage interest deduction harms a lot of people because their taxes go up significantly. (the latest tax reform pushed the standard deduction high enough that most people don't gain anything by deducting their interest - maybe in a few years nobody will care anymore and this can be eliminated)

People want simplified taxes, but they write letters and vote when their taxes go up, so more complex taxes are rewarded despite that want.

I don't believe it is double standards to ban one thing and not another, if that was the case then progress would never be made with anything. Maybe banning the wholesale production of meat is a bit more complex than banning a few restaurants serving one particular cruel foodstuff?

For parachutes it was only true until Cirrus put out training to encourage people to actually use the parachute.

Once pilots were properly trained, the parachutes started saving lives. It was the same story when ejector seats were introduced.

The emergency autoland is not intended to be used by the pilot, it is for activation by a passenger in single pilot aircraft when the pilot is incapacitated. So their is almost nothing to train. Pilots just need to add it to the passenger briefing.
Thanks for the source.

It only lists raw energy use and not greenhouse gas emissions though. I'm a bit surprised since the tables I've seen have train emission at the very bottom, but most of what I have seen is from Europe but we run diesel trains here in Norway too (in the north) and the tracks are not straight at all!

Maybe because we want justice and not just whomever is more willing to escalate violence to win. Without the cops, any criminal interaction just becomes who’s willing to shoot first.

You speak of loud neighbors? In my town a guy was just murdered a few weeks ago over a long running feud about a loud dog. The two homeowners had tried to settle it many times by fighting until one brought a gun.
Maybe we need to start teaching people to habitually attach provenance and confidence information to every fact (really: belief) they report, at least as much as practically possible?

"Iraq had WMDs in 2000s" != "I strongly believe Iraq had WMDs in 2000s" != "I find it plausible that Iraq might have had WMDs in 2000s" != "According to that UN report, Iraq had WMDs in 2000s" != "According to NYT, which quotes that UN report, Iraq had WMDs", etc.

A lot of problems are caused by people who say "X" when they should say "I strongly believe X", or "I think I read somewhere that X", or "I'm not sure, but I think X".
Well, you just create an object and set it as a field / pass it via constructor to the object that uses it. There are dependency injections frameworks, but the term dependency injection doesn't mean injecting automatically, it's more general. It just means that the dependency is provided from outside, and not how it's done.

Holy smokes, I've never heard of this reputation with a .CC domain name! I use a {my-surname}.CC domain name for my personal mail (handled via G Suite, but still), and haven't noticed that i've been blocked or anything like that. I've heard of this with other TLDs like .BIZ and .INFO, but this is news to me about .CC.

And, for anyone else here who is outright blocking a .CC domain, please know that there are legitimate people like me who are not using it for any nasty spam, and only using it for a personal, family domain name - because the .COM, .NET, and .ORG were all taken at the time - and didn't really feel like getting something silly like {get-surname}.COM or {getapp-surname}.COM or {the-surname}.COM or {some-other-silly-modifier-surname}.COM, etc.
If everybody was a first class citizen - sure, we don't need cops, but that is not the reality. It is easier to call the cops instead of doing "PR" with a chance for it to get physical and there are probably quite a lot of examples of just that.
> Productivity-wise, MFA will work better than USB tokens - I know a bunch of people who regularly forget their work smartcard pass, I don't know many people that forget their mobile phone.

(Your terminology is weird. What do you mean by MFA where USB tokens aren't in-scope? I guess you mean an authenticator app on a mobile device).

Where I work, we use Yubikeys, which are used as 2FA for almost everything:
* SSO on all web internal web sites, the SSO implementation supports U2F
* short-lived (less than a day) ssh certs signed by Yubikey OTP
* VPN access authenticated by Yubikey OTP

Enrolling of yubikeys is self-service, and supports up to 2, and employees in critical positions can have 2. Re-setting the Yubikey OTP pin is mostly self-service, but you need to enter it any time you VPN or get a new ssh cert, so you are more likely to forget your phone at home than your Yubikey OTP pin.

> I feel like security gimmicks like these distract them away from fixing real problems and are, if anything, detrimental to security.

Many banks (especially in my country) rely on SMS OTPs. Some banks have OTP authentication for their websites on their mobile apps (but then if you uninstall the app, you have to re-enroll, which is quite tedious).

I would much prefer all banking sites to support U2F/WebAuthn, and hopefully that would also sufficiently motivate good support on phones for U2F/WebAuthn. If they allowed you to turn off any SMS-based OTPs (e.g. if they support recovery codes and 2 tokens), I think it would be possible to eliminate SIM-swap fraud (which is quite rife here ...).

And to be clear, I don't mean this in place of good password managers, I mean in addition to password managers. Defense-in-depth and all.
A house is a simple thing, being a wooden or brick box? A car is also a box on wheels? A rocket is just a metal cylinder? </sarcasm> - could we at least try to think or research before posting the middlebrow dismissal?

A passenger rail car is more like a house or very large caravan. In addition to all the engineering below the body (wheels, suspension, vacuum brakes, coupling), you've got a large superstructure with windows, plumbing, electrics, HVAC, power-operated doors, and design considerations of accesability and crash safety as well as comfort.

They generally need a special site to be built on (unless you want to ship them by road, which can be done but is inconvenient) and some heavy capital equipment.

The UK built bus-on-rail conversions to cover a period of national poverty; the notorious "Pacers". They were uncomfortable and unpopular.
It's the "grade" that makes the headline ridiculous for me. I can imagine military and non-military rocket launchers, but "military-grade rocket launchers" makes it sound like there's a QC stage at the end of the conveyor belt where someone says: "This one's a bit wonky. The army won't take it. We'll sell it to a motorcycle gang instead."
Totally agree. Very prolific with a mix of software and hardware engineering, not at all shy about showing failures and setbacks and puts a lot of effort into the production value of his content.

> It is better to let everyone speak and everyone to make their own decisions

Majority of the people simply trust the media they like or get used to. They usually assume news from these channels have been fact-checked or are trustworthy but we all know messages can be crafted in different ways.

In other words, the media can potentially/likely manipulate how people think and make decisions.
It's to be used only in the event that the pilot is incapacitated.

Because it's an emergency feature engaged by a passenger or automatically, it probably can't manage all complex situations. It may be just good weather emergency landing. Check fuel and wind, steer to nearest emergency airport and land. Best effort is better than no effort and dying.

> There is a mountain between the normal 3-degree glide-slope and the runway, an "offset approach"

I think it can land only to those airports that are it's database with landing approaches programmed it.

I don't take selfies, and rarely family snapshots either.

I do consider myself a photography hobbyist. I try to find neat shots - some are fairly standard shots that pros have all done better (look, another shot of Machu Picchu from the Sun Gate!). Others are simple street scenes, or flowers and landscapes, or whatever other random stuff I happen upon on vacation. Sometimes I try portraits as we're moving through vacation (though that's biggest weakness - most are crap). I like to think looking for unique shots forces me to experience my surroundings, but I won't claim that's true for all people.

I've printed a few shots, like to share my better shots with friends & family, and will go back and look at albums occasionally. And also try to ID what I did poorly and work to correct it on upcoming trips. Some of my favorites end up as desktop backgrounds, screen saver, etc. I should really consider getting a very high quality LCD display to rotate through some - maybe a project of the future.
> If moving stuff through the air would be cheaper than moving it by sea (fuel costs are a major part of shipping costs), then everything would be shipped by air. This is not the case; sea is the default, and air is premium.

Price and pollution are wildly different beasts. Even the types of fuel are different.

> Intuitively it makes sense that moving things through air requires more fuel than moving it by sea, since the airplane has to use fuel to offset its lack of buoyancy, while a ship only has to expend energy to actually move.

However ships have to push their way through water rather than air. It's a lot harder to walk to the end of the swimming pool through the water than it is to walk 25 metres regularly.

I don't think there's an intuitive answer to this.
> Any kind of injection of dependencies should be done via an explicit method/constructor parameter.

In this article, that's the only kind of injection mentioned. I realize a lot of the times people talk about DI they're referring to magic injectors like Spring's, but in this article, and in the Wikipedia article on DI, DI and magic are not synonyms. When the injector is just the constructor that's still DI, but it isn't an anti-pattern.
I prefer dB first.

Create an SQL project that defines the schema. It automatically compares the schema with your current dB schema and auto generates a migration script for you.

Then update entities from the dB.

Few steps involved but avoids writing and maintaing migrations yourself.
No, they were responding to reports of a man with a gun, the man fled the cops into the subway, they followed him there when he managed to jump on a train and evade the cops.

This video was them picking him up at the next station. They just stated the charge for arresting him was not paying the fare.

You have a man that officers tried to question who fled into a subway train and who is reportedly armed. You’re picking him up at the next station from a loaded train on a crowded platform.

Please with 20-20 hindsight spitball how you think this should have gone down?

I don’t quite see the benefits of Clojure’s dynamic binding over with-redefs for tests as demonstrated here. Personally I have only used Clojure’s dynamic binding very rarely, mostly in production scenarios to override some default value from a library and not for test cases.
The new rules people seem to be advocating for is you can commit low level crimes and the police won’t follow you, as long as you carry a gun. Which is crazy. The cops did nothing wrong blowing up that house as long as they were willing to pay for it. If they can’t pay for it they should have stationed some cops to wait him out. But armed fugitives need to handled lest they murder someone.
Short-termism, and the financialization of research, seems to be a huge problem in all fields of science.

By "financialization," I mean deciding which research projects get funding based on their expected measurable results, i.e., based on some rate of return that can be estimated today. If a research project can lead to more citations soon, or slightly better products soon, or lower costs soon, etc., it will get funding. Otherwise, it will not.

As a consequence, research projects with uncertain payoff but potentially transformational long-term benefits are... neglected.

:-(
I was always told that the leaves just don’t need it and it gets in the way.
The marketing material suggests that weather and runway conditions are taken into account when selecting a landing site. So I would assume the answer to all of those is that it won't pick that runway.

And if the aircraft is low on fuel or isn't making enough power to make that runway... Well, the usual happens - a forced landing, aka a crash landing.

I don't think this is meant to be used as a cop-out by the pilot. "My engine quit! You deal with this, computer!"
How does it communicate with ground station? Voice recognition and speech synthesis?

Scala has implicit parameters, which are declared explicitly in your method signature, but aren't passed explicitly into the method call (so long as exist in scope as an implicit where the call occurs). They can be confusing, but they can also help.
You don't have to capture every biased statement and bending of the truth to counter outright lies like "Obama was born in kenya" or "Trump was endorsed by the pope"

Both of which are believed by huge amounts of Americans.
> when a state acts pursuant to its police power, rather than the power of eminent domain, its actions do not constitute a taking

Isn't that moving the goalposts, though?

What this ruling effectively says is that as long as the state doesn't invoke eminent domain to take a citizen's property, then it's not eminent domain, even if the end result is that a citizen's property is taken?

I would much prefer a reading of eminent domain that says if a government invokes its authority to seize or destroys a citizen's property, regardless of its justification for doing so, then that's Taking.
So I've avoided UWP like the plague (no newer than WinForms or bust!) because it seems to me that it is merely the current SDK flavor of the week at Microsoft (after Silverlight, Metro apps, WinRT, XNA etc.) that'll be gone in a few years.

Am I correct in my reading that in the tug of war between Win32 style full system access and UWP style appification of programs on the desktop, this article represents the Win32 side getting a few winning steps towards its side, or is this more like EEE to get people locked in to UWP's identity features?

I'd love to hear opinions of people who have more UWP experience than myself (if you've written one more app than Hello World, that means you)
Balkanization isn't helping anyone, won't help Spain or Catalonians either. The problem relies within our changing political identity. It used to be religion based for so long, which was splintering alright but still was more unifying than nationalism. Now people of any ethnic identity demands a land for it and third parties sponsor them for their own interests. How reasonable is that? It just causes more geopolitical chaos and resource bottlenecks. EU and the USA isn't faring too well with multiculturalism either so our civilization is stuck between a rock and a hard place.
I’ve been so happy with ProtonMail as a strategy to store any email I receive with dollar signs in it (to avoid google’s vacuuming it up into “purchases” and “reservations” dashboards, which I find exceptionally creepy on a paid gsuite account)
