Musk's hyperloop was neither maglev, [edit it actually was an evacuated tube; just not maglev] nor in an evacuated tube. It was an air bearing in a reduced (but still fairly high) pressure tube.

Apparently the air bearing didn't work out, so all the things calling themselves "hyperloop" are maglev and, once you don't need the air bearing, it makes sense to lower the pressure as much as possible.
Is there something specific about numpy here, or would it be any RNG?

Why would you assume the people in Iran want the deal to fail?

I would suspect that most Iranians, regardless of if they are for or against the nuclear program, just want sanction relief and don’t care how they get it. At the end of the day, most people just want to have a good life and sanction relief will help that happen.

Demystifying programs that create programs, part 1: A disassembler
You have linked to a message saying:

“Any chance you guys have data on NJ?

It is not clear how this means that they are working with a political candidate, or what that means to you.

Can you explain what conclusions you are drawing from this message?
Moscow and St Petersburg are ~700 km apart. It takes 4 hours by high-speed train, 8 hours (a night basically) by low-speed train you can sleep in, or about an hour by plane. And none of these are optimal. You have to spend those 4 hours awake if you're taking the high-speed train, you might get annoying neighbors if you take the low-speed one (and some people also don't fit into those berths), and all 3 airports in Moscow are in the middle of nowhere, so it essentially takes the same 4 hours if you fly.

And I'm not taking price into account, it varies a lot. I'm just ranting that there isn't a good option for this kind of distance. Not long enough to fly, but a bit too long for a train.

Oh and you're only left with the slow train if you want to spend a day, including the evening, in Moscow, and return at night.

And working twice as long for half as much
> I wouldn't be surprised if more people can reach Charles de Gaulle or Orly within 45 minutes at rush hour than can get to Gare de Lyon.

Actually, I would. The highways around Orly (A6 and A86) tend to be extremely congested during rush hour. Add to it that the areas around those airports aren't that densely populated and are sufficiently far out so that public transportation has to go through Paris if you're not close by, and I don't think that more people are able to reach the airports quicker than Gare de Lyon or Gare du Nord.

Charles de Gaulle is even further out in the "country" so I think there are even less people able to reach that quickly, especially via the A1 and A3 which are also congested all the time. Then once there, the airport is so huge that just getting around it may take you a good 15-20 minutes.

Note that for some destinations south of Paris there are TGVs departing from Massy, which is a couple stops away from Orly. The same applies for CDG and the north.

Also, Paris is only one end of the journey. On the other side, the public transit situation isn't always as great. It's either some sort of bus, which takes forever (especially during rush hour), or some taxi which may be somewhat quicker than the bus but will cost an arm and a leg.

Using brain interfaces to learn about learning
I’m usually in total agreement about blockchain just being stuffed anywhere, but observationally, there must be a good reason why blockchain shows up in these situations so often. There’s definitely the hype factor, but blockchain does have value in that it’s reasonably trusted by average people (perhaps unlike signing a contract everytime you wanted to purchase a piece of a creator - coins gamify it), and it’s easy to setup trust systems - Alex setup his own token in a weekend for a “human IPO”, rather than running through the cost and time of properly setting it up with a lawyer and contracts.

Maybe blockchain’s biggest value proposition right now is that it’s lightly regulated and has hype, so using it greases the wheels when growing an audience or building a usually regulated product.
They could and should document and account for this somewhere in the data set.

In other words, the rich get richer--scalability works.

One thing the author left out (or that I missed) is that scalability increases overall wealth. If I have to learn calculus from an average teacher because of geographic limitations, and then my child gets to learn from the best calculus teacher in the world, in the latter case the world gets richer because the same knowledge is arrived at quicker at less expense. (Of course, there's fallout for the average worker, but this is something we've been dealing with in the developed world for decades and still haven't figured out.)
The police force is losing much of its ability to enforce the law. Young casual political observers praise this but we’ve already seen this happen in the 1960s and then culminate in Bernhard Goetz once everyone was fed up with drugged low-lifes bringing down the quality of life of otherwise hard-working individuals.

I thought the same when i first tried the first CV1 version of the oculus. The latest Quest however does not cause sickness, at least not when the scene is not moving, and even when the scene is moving, it's small. That's good enough for me, since i can enjoy VR without moving as well. I actually agree with you, i think most of the uses of VR will not be in gaming and won't involve dizzying videos.

I also noticed real-world-dizziness, i.e. it takes some time to adapt to the real world's visual flow after extended use.

Keep in mind it's also considered an act of war, not the first such attack on Iran and their scientists.
Ah dang I knew I should have looked up your role!
I am going to have to disagree. Iran recently attacked an Israeli ship, but more importantly it continues to arm terrorist groups (note I am Israeli, so I am probably not objective here, but yes I believe Hamas and Hezbollah are terrorist groups. Some of you may think differently on that. We can agree to disagree) that are against Israel’s existence. Those groups are constantly either attacking or trying to attack Israel.

Now you can argue Israel is also attacking those groups and you wouldn’t be wrong. It’s almost impossible to figure out who started each round. We only ever hear a very small part of the story.

It is a circle of violence that will hopefully one day end.
I'm not sure I like the investment analogy for ones career since you have to actually put the work in to get the pay. Your time, effort and talent are at least as much of a contributor as the medical school tuition. Perhaps a name brand school gives you a significant bump in earning potential on the margins but "incredible returns" still feels reductive of what is essentially a very hard and traditional career path.
> People make decisions based on the law.

But who writes the law? Look into "regulatory capture" and how companies tilt the tax law to their favor.

I wasn't saying one way or another what happened. But a physical military attack by Israel would be much more frowned on by the international community than a cyberattack. In that situation, what motivation is there for Iran to conceal that to the benefit of Israel?
Orbits in LEO are nearly circular. By giving a fragment a single instantaneous change in velocity, you change that orbit to an ellipse, which could have a higher apogee, but will always return to the initial altitude.

To turn that ellipse into a circle with a larger radius than the LEO orbit, you need an additional maneuver when it is at that larger radius.

capitalism as you know it today. If we'd to stick to the original definition of capitalism

both of these terms completely useless for any discussion other than autistic political

with hiring it is rather that, unless i can't decide myself between multiple candidates, the teams input is not going to make much difference, and it might make things worse if they don't agree with my choice. (asking them and rejecting their preferred candidate feels worse than not asking)

3. Does your site offer filling those forms as a service?

> a _very_ competent cyber-actor (Iran)

Nation state security competence includes locking down USB ports so someone can't deploy malware found off the street.
Practically every nation on Earth except Iran. Even the countries that have friendly relations with Iran would prefer to negotiate from a position of power. Notice that even after all these years that neither Russia, China, or any of the other nuclear powers have “lost” nuclear material or technical information to enable Iran to make a nuclear weapon. And none of the non-nuclear powers would be happy if Iran had nukes but they did not.
The “almost” qualifier was intended for you. Other than that, more nukes on earth aren’t good for anyone, especially as Iranian nukes would enable - not restrain - their aggression.
Good point, I agree with the basic principle. But in your example you made 33% of the population richer. If you made richer a single person out of 1 million, would the other 999999 be equally poor as in your previous example? I'd say they wouldn't, because the overwhelming majority of those they interacted with would still be as wealthy as themselves. They might even never cross paths with the richer one. So yes, slightly poorer but almost imperceptibly so.

Anyway, the clickbait title seems to imply some (inverse) connection between the two figures- minimum wage and Wall Street bonuses. Yes the bonuses have grown dramatically, and yes there can be something wrong in the fact that minimum wages are so low; but trying to create a connection between the two is moral blackmail.

The knock on management from a lot of folks I’ve talked to is that managers end up working harder for less money — this is actually the case at the line manager level, but if you can get past that things improve quickly.

"Is it just me, but isn't an Income Share Agreement ... taxes?"

No. Its profit sharing akin to how companies do so by issuing dividend paying shares.

So far as the government is concerned theyre just looking out for their most important stake holders, wealthy individuals and monied interests, by keeping taxes extremelly low. Universities being underfunded to the point they need to raise tuition to the point where students need to take on crushing debt is a byproduct of that.
