Boeing is stuck with a enormous amount of completes airplanes That nobody wants or can afford.

A lot (maybe most) airlines are struggling to survive with the impact of the pandemic on travel.

A lot of banks that have lent money to airlines have their security in part in the airplanes.

Some countries are pumping money into particular airlines to try to keep them from bankruptcy

As more and more airlines news to shed aircraft and employees the market is or will be flooded with used aircraft.

Possibly some can be considered converted for freight if the market stays strong there

Two embryos were fertilized 27 years ago. The first was born three years ago, the second two months ago, both records at the time of their birth.

But some parts of the article are obvious fluff and seemingly lies, not science. From the fine article:

A two month old baby gets mad and upset? I've raised a few babies, and do not recall those emotions showing up until much much later.

MAC whitelisting is so easily circumvented that it's more of a hassle than a security measure, really. It also doesn't solve the rogue access point problem because with two devices you can capture a target on one part of the network, MitM it, and forward the traffic to a second device somewhere else on the network where you replicate the target's MAC address.

Proper access control (enterprise WPA, deployed with valid certificates and correctly provisioned to company devices) would probably solve most issues when it comes to automatic credential stealing through WiFi access points. PNAC also works quite well in that context. The largest challenge in this area would be people using the guest network instead of the office network, but that can be worked around by requiring either access to the internal network or access through a VPN to get to any information that you're afraid might leak.

Still, if you find a rogue access point, you would probably want to find out where it is so you can analyze and/or remove it. One of these tools can be quite handy for that, assuming they're cheap and available enough to have just lying around.

Looks promising. But how do we know you are doing your own indexing and not simply buying in the results from Google or Bing like pretty much all of the other search startups? And if you are doing your own indexing, I see you include some very large sites like wikipedia which is going to cost a lot of money to index on a regular basis, so how are you going to pay for this in a sustainable way?
Can You Buy God?
Can you buy God? What a freaking question! But what if the answer is yes? Well, That is what the true story of Moya suggests.

Story of Moya: Little Moya was in the Second Grade when he lost his parents in a road accident. His care was undertaken by his poor uncle who was a heart patient. His uncle was the sole caretaker he had as he lost his aunt a couple of years ago. Things got worse when his uncle suffered a heart attack and got hospitalized. Little Moya heard the doctors say that only God could help his uncle.

In search for God: Moya was unable to understand the English word 'God' and he mistook it for some medicine on sale. He went out to different shops on the street and asked for God to be packed and given. Shopkeepers and people around, made him a laughing stock. Learn more:http://bit.ly/361yGJN

I think by point of the piece is that Edward maintained power in spite of coups, rebellious nobles, and political chaos. I don't know why the subhead is "Edward the Confessor, a model of medieval piety, was a surprisingly effective ruler." Probably an editor who wanted to summarize and did a bad job.

Not a surprising result at all. Timestream is another case of AMS trying to make something for the sake of having it (see here Kinesis instead of just doing Kafka and many other products) instead of just adopting something industry standard. That isn't to say they don't do some good stuff just they also ship a lot of crap, very much 2 tiers of products in the AWS catalog.

I would eventually like to see comparison for a more analysis heavy workload vs Druid though.

Simple metrics workloads like what Timestream and Influx do aren't really of interest when comparing to Timescale ability to do JOINs and use other SQL and PostgreSQL specific functionality.
> Therein lies the problem. Do we really all have to shoulder youtube's (and porn networks) problems?

No, you don't. Whether you're working on the client or server side, you can keep using HTTP/1.1, and the other side will downgrade to accommodate you. Meanwhile, those of us who want to optimally serve our users on both good and bad connections will just use the multiple, freely available implementations of HTTP/2 and eventually HTTP/3.

But the same people will be affected due to economic headwinds (directly or indirectly) if vaccine is not available soon.

“Mad” has an object, so no, newborns cannot technically be “mad,” but “upset” is a good description of a hungry baby, and it’s not unusual to use “mad” to mean upset instead of “angry at”.

OK - could the folks working on Urbit update that page or indicate that it doesn't reflect the current project's plans/beliefs, then? A "Common objections to Urbit" page that says "We would and easily could add more than four billion planet-like entities if the need came" would be far more convincing to objectors than "Actually, there aren't four billion people in the world deserving of our project's goals."

(I realize the document is from 2016 and written by someone no longer associated with the project, so maybe a disclaimer at the top linking to an entirely new version of the document would work, or something.)

Probably not much of interest. Small team of... 4-6 had mix of experience with php, java and .net (min 8-10 years of each, fwir). Someone wanted to learn node (of course... always the best reason to choose a star), and pushed that on others. I gave up fighting that. Then we needed to "micro service" the node code because... well... you know... we have to be on AWS and lambda because... scale. Funnily enough, 'testing' and 'testability' never seemed to enter in to the decision making equation.

I read it, but still don't understand your main concern with the mRNA vaccine. It's unproven, and we don't know the long term side effects in human, but from all data that we have already about the technology it looks safe. You can wait, but I'm an asthmatic person who has problems with breathing when there's air pollution, and my parents are over 70, so for me and them it looks like it's the safer way to live longer

It seems to me you've also taken the concrete action of only working for small/indie companies where the relative power between a single employee and the employer is much greater than at a place like Google. I think that's also an entirely reasonable action, and if everyone did that, many of these problems would go away.

-I'd say that is plausible if next week's draw turns out to be 1-2-3-4-5-6, for instance.

(That is - as is pointed out upthread, such 'weird' draws will occur naturally on occasion. It would, however, be quite suspicious if it happened twice in a row.)

I am sure one of the things the lottery looks into is how many coupons with 'weird' numbers chosen like this week's winning numbers have been picked in the past - of course, if you get a result which makes you suspect shenanigans AND the number of coupons with such a strange sequence of numbers is way up from normal, then perhaps that suspicion is well founded.

My friend, you're the one who asserted "it means rape", and all I'm saying that it's more complicated than that. For example, 姦通 may be morally "bad sex", but it's consensual.

You're right. That would be a counter-example because of non-biological second-order effects.

But in this context, we're talking about first-order biological effects that aren't accounted for because of race. If race doesn't have biological underpinnings then the larger argument is meaningless.
> The biggest thing I've felt since moving here: whether or not you can speak and interact in Japanese makes a world of difference. Seriously.

Literally right for almost every country: France without knowing French, US without English, Taiwan with Chinese or Taiwanese, Egypt without Arabic... Japan is not special in that regard, save for the fact that most people here have quite a low level of English (which is also not very specific to Japan).

So I wholly agree that making the effort to learn the local language repays by itself for any medium or long stay.

Are there any publications or results that show what she accomplished as a research scientist at google? What is considered the leading edge of the field of in AI ethics research? Had she accomplished something of great distinction in this field prior to google? Was her google street view result related to ethics? I would assume that ethics research would involve how an AI can learn to act ethically. Perhaps something about how an AI treats a sentient versus non-sentient impediment, like how it would decide whether to stop for ducklings or just run them over, whether it has the ability to learn a function for long-term social implications of its actions, specifically longer than the training stimulus, which is the remarkable function of the human prefrontal lobe, or only considers short-term task reward.
Its funny that you mention that. After Eich was forced to quit, I've been noticing that everything related to client-side development is highly influenced by liberal mindsets, many of which are also political. I'm also a minority, but I don't want (even if I need) anybody advocating for me.

Of course, both you and me are going to be downvoted because these types oppose (downvote, "cancel") anyone who mentions their presence.
The current market operate by people bidding to supply demand in the future. The market say "I want to buy power a certain amount between specific hours at a specific date" and the power operation can say "I will obligate to supply that energy at that time and date at this price". Batteries could at any time jump in and bid below that of any current bidders.

In that aspect we already have variable pricing. Individual customers usually don't see this, but I suspect the primary reason has more to do with averaging out the cost over time and not exposing individuals to the internal details of the energy market.
It seems like AWS is just focusing on increasing it's vendor lock in and it makes sense not just from the AWS point of view but if you're a developer at an enterprise company that has authorised AWS the more databases the clone, poorly or badly the more choice you have without having to get authorisation and the cost doesn't matter to the developer since the enterprise company is paying for it.

I suspect there are many enterprises that are already so locked into AWS that it would take them a decade to move to a different provider.
Bcrypt doesn't have memory-hardness, so has high susceptibility to ASIC attacks. In particular, it incurs the same or lower cost factor on the attacker than the user.

More recent designs such as scrypt and Argon2 force high memory usage as well as computation time, incurring little cost on the users but making ASIC and GPU attacks significantly less cost-effective.

Of course, any of these will still give better protection than plain cryptographic hashes.

It's actually easy in JS frameworks too (at least React, not sure about Angular which is just generally more difficult to work with). In fact, they make it much easier to write performant UI code (that's half the benefit).

You generally don't need to debug the framework. Just follow some simple best practices and the performance will just happen in 99% of cases.

Why do people need company stuff on their phone anyway?

Can't say anything about this particular case but one possible cause is that the devs have looked around, seen which behaviours are likely to result in promotion/pay raises and have determined that performance work is not one of them.
Paraffin is a wax, it's just synthetic (and all the issues that come with that). More concerning is that many "waxed" products contain PTFEs.
I really like the idea of standardization. Even if there are 500 standards, that's much better than an unbounded number.

Regulation would certainly force the issue, but one way or another the consumer packaged goods industry (and other industries) need to get their heads around focusing competition around everything BUT packaging.

When packaging has become standard, no one competes there any more. If everyone has the mindset that this is expected and OK, just focus competitive efforts elsewhere -- product quality, branding, better ingredients/parts, lower price, whatever. Your packaging design/pollution budget is now free for other opportunities.

There is some advantage in selecting the right standard size, but you either know what your industry is doing or you pay a consultant to tell you which one to try next.

What you don't do is spend lots more money designing your own custom packaging that may or may not help sales and will never be recycled.

And then there is the entire packaging design industry, not a small one, who will not like this at all. Anyone want to play devil's advocate and guess what they might say?
As someone who lived in Saudi and has relatives there, most of these comments are far far off the mark (Saudi has been diversifying for years, they won't be reliant on oil when it stops being as profitable, and that's also decades and decades away).

But this one takes the cake. Haha, they are allowing women to participate for money? Women already participated in Saudi economically from a long time back. They make up a large part of the Aramco workforce. Don't confuse allowing women to drive and repealing qawwam system with "allowing women to participate economically". Women didn't need to drive to participate they could just have their drivers drive them around (as is common anyways).

Also, Saudi is a conservative society, and the royals are more liberal than the populace (like everywhere in the world). Most people in Saudi dislike these reforms. The royals embark on them to please their allies in Europe and America and Israel as they hope to connect their economies more (they've already invested lots into these places with their sovereign wealth fund and want to protect their investments).

This is half truth at best. It's only a matter of time until HTTP/1.1 is forced out by the tech/browser oligopoly: just look where we are with plaintext HTTP now.

The reason for HTTP3 is marginal gains that only make sense at enormous scales for large operators. The rest of us pay for this with increased complexity.
Right, but a modern research record is about incremental improvement. The argument being that low hanging fruit is often picked, and so the incremental is natural. My argument is that far too many people are gaming the academic system, using it as a form of status credentialing, which is hurting true academic research.
First of all shareholder income should be taxed the same way as employment income. I think (at least in my country) it is absolutely disgusting that when you draw dividends from a business you pay less tax than if you were drawing a salary. If taxation was the same across the board, then there will be no incentive for shareholders to insist on extracting the value through dividends. The next thing is that in many cases shareholders are de-facto directors in terms of influence, this means they should also share the same liabilities and responsibilities. This should be a start to make it healthier.

Nitpick: this blog post makes an incorrect statement, namely that the domain of the inverse tangent function is -pi/2 to pi/2.

The domain of a function is the set of all possible inputs. In particular, the domain of the inverse tangent consists of all real numbers.
