There will be a lot of factors constantly perturbing the trajectories, so lacking the ability to take corrective actions should be out of the question. Unless something happens too close to the point of contact, I expect the situations to be calculated and compensated for. Also, that tiny window that you talk about doesn't actually have to be that tiny. There can be engineered a string of potential contacts with multiple tethers on slightly different orbital altitudes to lower the risk, and for fungible cargo like fuel or other kind of supplies, that may fall be within the acceptable risk margin. Of course, people and other high value cargo can be serviced by other means if necessary.

This comment displays a remarkable ignorance of scientific history. Why do you think Ramon y Cajal shared the Nobel prize, for discovering neurons, with Golgi, who 'simply' invented the staining method?

Right I believe you Backs away slowly
Let me correct you there. The US needs to free itself from the monopoly big tech as well. I speak for a lot of people when I say we feel just as helpless and frustrated as the rest of the world.
It's terrible precedent. What about the first amendment? Software is speech.
I can appreciate that point of view given your background.

However, as a programmer who dabbles in 3d printing / 2.5d CNC routing, I have the exact opposite experience. I spend a lot of time in Fusion 360 just battling the software because for some dumb reason it decided to align the top of my part with the bottom of the other when I actually wanted everything in the same plane.

OpenSCAD just makes a lot more sense to my programmer brain, and I'm often much more productive in it.

However, beyond the obvious graphical VS text interface, there's another significant difference between the two: OpenSCAD's base concept is making operations (add / subtract) on solid primitives (prisms, cylinders, spheres) whereas Fusion360 is based on 2d sketches that you extrude. That latter model works very well with a CNC router & plywood.

The fact that the not even top of the line (3080) card is knocking the door on 8K gaming is amazing to me.

It's still not cheap but who says moore's law is dead (I know its apples and oranges, but 60% gen-to-gen performance is great). The first games I played were already 3D and looked ok, but the idea that we'll probably be playing movie-quality raytracing within a decade is really something to look forward to.
Probably both-- it's probably why these cycles occur.

SolveSpace has NO "limits in terms of CAD" (as SolveSpace 3.0 actually in active development, heavy rework & list of implemented features growing each week) — the only limits it has is that for creating _too_complex_ solids & assembly it just requires to use more tricks & more powerful PC ;)
The US will ban TikTok and WeChat app downloads from September 20
Americans don't have access to the payment features of WeChat since it requires a Chinese bank account (with the exception of HK and Macau). It's a pain in the butt. Even as someone living in HK with an RMB denominated Unionpay card, I can't use it to pay in mainland China.
If you haven't read it already, you should check out Ben Thompson's article on The Four Internets (https://stratechery.com/2020/india-jio-and-the-four-internet...). He talks a lot about what he thinks the future of the internet looks like in relation to geopolitics.

Specifically, he makes the argument that the "American" internet is favorable to creating companies b/c it's effectively a wild west (with limited regulations and laws which favor the corporations, along with a relatively-rich user base). This allows many companies to start in America and then expand globally, which in turn allows the US to exercise soft power abroad.

To change the status quo, in Europe in particular, would require either gov't intervention on what can be accessed via the internet (closer to what India is doing) OR more favorable laws to the creation of small tech cos (which unfortunately is not what regulation like GDPR accomplishes).

Not saying I agree with all of it, but it's interesting to think about the nation-scale incentives to create global internet superpowers.
The linked article is all about protecting data in flight like in the TLS case. PGP is all about protecting data at rest. The two applications are fundamentally different.
I agree. But if PWAs were good enough on Android, you should see, depending on your budget from largest to smallest:

2. Web, iOS - since PWAs are suppose to be “good enough for Android”.

3. Web

A data point: the Premier level of AppleOne quickly had me considering cancelling my Spotify family account in favor of the Apple bundle.

However on further reflection, while apparently not as generous to artists, Spotify is simply a superior product. The recommendation engines and instant playlists are fantastic, the UI is wonderful, and being able to share songs with friends knowing that they'll be able to play them—at the very least via Spotify's free tier—is frictionless.

We pay $10/month for 2TB of iCloud and $15 for our Spotify plan, and currently don't see a need for the other Apple offerings in the bundle—all are nice-to-haves from our perspective.

I think we'll continue our current diversified bundle for the foreseeable future.
For what it’s worth, so far there is no evidence to indicate that you can. All this paragraph points to, at best, is that the US Commerce Department thinks that you can. In fact it’s not clear whether it does, because it’s not clear who suggested that it might: the commerce department, or someone with no understanding of the legal capabilities it has?

Yeah for streaming transfers wormhole is great.

Also check out the the go port https://github.com/psanford/wormhole-william (compatible with the original) and https://webwormhole.io/ (not compatible I think)
paper launch means no hardware. This is just very limited supply. The only atrocious thing is the FE edition is 100$ less then the cheap AIB models.
Hmmm. Several of the listed feature seem like valuable improvements over Magic Wormhole. That leads me to think that maybe several people should go to the bother of an IETF working group so everybody's platform gets at least a baseline interoperable thing in this class (PAKE driven single file transfer) like with TLS or SecSH, rather than all having their own preferred option that's incompatible.

Before I moved on to Fusion 360, I remember the only sane way to fillet the edges in OpenSCAD was to apply the Minkowski function. Of course, that has to be the absolutely last thing that you do with the model, because the perf after minkowski was truly horrifying, n many cases taking more time than the subsequent 3D printing. Has anything changed since?
This is lower level than code you normally expect. The change seems to happen around switching addressing modes, so it could be something like pages descriptors not being set up correctly. In short - rust safe memory guarantees don't hold if you mess with memory mapping at runtime.

The problem with that sort of advice is it is grossly oversimplified. If I'm hiking on a narrow path and someone walking along in the other direction; do I need to leave the path and put a mask on or can I just smile politely and walk on past? Do I need to wash my hands immediately after walking past them?

The CDC page provides very little guidance on why or when. There are directives and no way to assess the risk. Compare that to this high quality article - it talks about no. people sneezing on a small surface to get high viral loads, or the Korean story where there is a lot of situational data about how people catch the virus. Very situated, talking about actual values and mechanisms.

I don't need to know what to do, that is such generic nonsense I could have guessed it as soon as I knew covid was airborne - block your air intake, stay away from people. Truly not the stuff of enlightenment. I need to know risk so I can decide what situations to avoid and when to impolitely leave the room. I can use this scientist's article to assess whether I am personally at risk of catching COVID in a given instance. That is much more powerful than the CDCs article.
They aren’t saying to not use has_many. They’re saying to not use the association method that gets put on the AR object from has_many. For example, if a User has_many Posts, they’re saying to avoid calling user.posts.

That may seem weird, but the association still has value: for querying. You can still write: User.joins(:posts) for example.

The problem with the association methods is that they aren’t really methods because they always execute a query. A lot of longtime Rails developers get tired of the database being involved in every step of the way in a request, because it leads to a lack of separation of concerns.

> Factory lines at a standstill because some cog in the machine is broken

Many years ago I helped prototype a system that would track product flows in a manufacturing process. The existing process for dealing with blockages was to employ a 'progress chaser' - a person whose specific job was to walk around the factory looking for problems of this sort and who had the authority to try and resolve them (e.g. to retask people or machines). The existing management had two problems with this:

1) The person who did it was not easily replaceable if hit by a bus because of their very detailed knowledge and charismatic authority

2) His solutions sometimes addressed the 'noisiest' problem, not necessarily the one that had the biggest impact on the bottom line.

Needless to say, our prototype failed to solve the problem, but it made me realise that dealing with these blockages can be really difficult.

First off, you're moving the goalposts a bit here. No one claimed that the death rate for people under 20 was anywhere near that of older age groups.

Your assertion that "babies are in fact immune" is demonstrably false: https://data.cdc.gov/NCHS/Provisional-COVID-19-Death-Counts-... shows 20 deaths for children under 1 year old. Presumably many more than that were infected but survived (unfortunately covid.cdc.gov is timing out for me right now and a quick search didn't give me infection rates for that age group).

Yes, the number is small compared to cases in older people. But "babies in fact are immune" is in fact the same kind of misinformation you're railing against.
Regarding pollution, a specific problem is where a specific pollutant is high relative to others.

For shipping, bunker fuel emissions are modest in CO2, but high in particulates and extraordinarily high in S02 emissions. You can literally visually identify major shipping lane by such emissions, as here in the Indian Ocean:

https://earth.nullschool.net/#2020/09/18/1000Z/chem/surface/...

The thing is that there's a considerable set of commonly-tracked pollutants, with emissions varying greatly by source, as wwell as markedly different long-term and wide-are effects, some large, some small.

The chargers claim ... is mostly bullshit, however.

The claims may be both clickbait (misleading) and accurate (properly qualified).

I don't think this is true. Countries do not decide to build or not build nuclear power plants based on budget, because nuclear is the cheapest way to produce power at scale. It has mostly to do with sentiment people have towards nuclear power and trust that the project can be done safely.

Thanks, by "it" I now understand you mean that CONFIG_EFI_STUB=y is on by default. This is the feature required to boot the kernel directly as an UEFI-target, now I need to look into how I make it an UEFI-target, I believe I need to use bootmgr as GP has, but I need to use my kernel image as the EFI image?

EDIT: I managed to create the target, with efibootmgr and boot it partly but it panics. I assume that's due to FDE so I'll have to look into how to configure it to support that (if it's possible without a bootloader).
What programmer wants to add those things? Ads have been the bane of the internet for 20 years, how many times has a developer excitedly clamored to ruin their performance metrics, layout, security, etc with more ads? How often are programmers arguing for incredibly complex UI elements over the native (and trivial to implement) alternatives?

Programmers don't choose these things, because programmers aren't the real decision makers, it's management and business that makes the web awful.

Seen Louis Rossman talk about this thread in his latest video this morning. Wanted to chime in.

I have stopped using Godaddy for a while now because I had suspected that was happening. I wasn't 100% sure, but when I would spend hours looking for a domain name and searching through hundreds of names, I noticed a few of them with the least amount of characters and words they might consider more "premium" were taken. The few I noticed were some of the top choices I was considering using.

I do suspect they have some sort of algorithm where they take domains you might consider buying, but I can't prove it.

I've stopped searching on there for a while now and just stick with Namecheap. Never have any problems with Namecheap and their customer service was pretty good/fast when I got locked out of my account 1 time.

Now days I'm pretty paranoid about searching for domains on any domain site...
You might note that Rust was conceived by Graydon Hoare and now "the community" owns the project, and the creator is no longer involved. Much like Nikolay Kim (who also was a developer of aiohttp for python, a very impressive FOSS record!)
Been using Namecheap for 2 years now. Love it.

This was me 10 years ago. I'd try to "impress" people with the final result by not asking any questions and praying that they were just as excited as I was about the magic I created in a vacuum.

It took me a long time to unlearn that. Fight through asking questions - getting negative, sometimes awkward feedback.
