The obvious solution is to move the redistricting process into the census bureau. Then they have accurate data to draw districts with, the data is not published, and all the dumb state districting cheats are avoided.
I don't see the upside to the effort of porting to js. You still have all of the same pittfalls. Yes, you can build a DOM with 20x the code and 1/20th the performance ... or you can just call htmlspeciachars() in php. Yup, security is tedious and you need to stay on your toes.

Nobody's saying that companies should have to make design tradeoffs to make things easier to repair (e.g., making devices bigger to fit sockets so components can be replaced without soldering). We're just saying they should stop going out of their way to make things harder to repair (e.g., withholding schematics and service manuals that they already did the work to write, and forcing suppliers to not sell their parts to independent repair shops).
Can you cite this "law" you're talking about?
If the third party seller is buying the product, and paying to have it labeled and shipped directly to Amazon, I would not consider that drop shipping. Drop shipping implies the product is never really in-stock with the seller, but if the seller paid for it and it's sitting in an Amazon warehouse then that's in-stock by any normal definition.
It requires some background in electronics. Personally I use gloves when working on electronics and soldering. There is nothing sophisticated about power supplies. Pressure vessels is where it gets real.
To be fair, the 1% isn't off either.

The figure available was "billions". For ease of calculation, say it was 7b. That means if each developer pays $100 and total revenue was 7b, 1% of the world must be a developer. (1% of 7b * $100 = $7b)

Also, by your own figure, 20 million is already ~0.25% of the world population.
I don't see this happening though. It would seem reasonable to limit the countries seeing the passenger list to those countries that the plane is taking off from/leaving though.
I've only ever cross compiled no_std rust, but as long as I'm writing a rust app with C deps (and not a C app with rust deps) everything has just worked for me.

What caused the linker errors for you?

(My issues with a rust lib for a C app were based around how rustc didn't want to include panicking code from core, even with a panic handler defined)
This is something that can happen even if everybody is aware of the problem. We don't know what their internal structure looks like, but in enough places I've worked, if something like this would happen, it would be clear that something needs to be done, but it would also be everybody thinking it's someone else's responsibility to do it, so the end result is that it doesn't get done until someone notices the problem again after it should have already been addressed. That's bad, but not "not in a million years" bad, in my opinion.
So back to centralisation of power?
I recently bought a cheap Chinese electric cooker just for fun. The instruction "manual" was a flimsy piece of paper. Yet it still contained schematics, as simple as it was.
I've always wanted to see an experiment to see if free kicks (or teed golf shots, or a teed football) performance went down if the athlete was not allowed to set or tee the ball themselves. Soccer players will always give the ball a gentle toss onto the ground and watch it settle; do world class athletes "see" the millimeter differences in the ball position and subconsciously take into account before striking??

Japan at the national level is barely democratic, the LDP has won all but one time at the national level in 50+years, and the term in which they weren't power they installed party-loyal functionaries to almost ignore the democratically elected government. A few times they did have premiers from other parties for a brief amount of time, but they never completed a term because they went against the LDP.

In Japan, a party with over 10% of the vote is surveilled as a criminal organization and it's leadership is thus being targeted 24/7 and prosecuted for anything remotely possible such as putting flyers in mailboxes, in order to disrupt the political process.

If it's a democracy, it's one of the weakest ones.
Good point. They no doubt learned a lot about torture during the Cold War years and from some of the best. It's really a shame that countries are allowed to do this and it would seem like there would be some international agreement against it.

I had a Corsair power supply with this feature. The system I built with it was quite flaky, but I could reproduce the failure and eventually debugged a 12V transient dropout (when running AVX workloads) that was the cause of the flakiness. The built-in monitoring didn't help at all; doesn't update frequently enough, and the computer crashed by the next USB polling cycle anyway. I used an oscilloscope.

I don't really have enough data to outright blame the power supply. I don't think I connected all of the 12V lines to the motherboard (power supply didn't come with enough cables), and I can't be sure that the motherboard was designed properly for a mildly-overclocked 6950X (VRM banks, capacitors near the CPU, etc.)

It was all enough of a pain that I will never buy another Corsair power supply. My current best practices involve only buying Seasonic power supplies, and connecting every possible "optional" power connector to the motherboard. If the PSU doesn't come with enough cables to do that, buy them separately. My current Threadripper motherboard has a 6-pin and 2 4-pin ATX12V connectors, and a Molex connector. Many are marked "optional" in the motherboard's instruction manual, but I have them connected anyway. Probably overkill. Great stability. Without having designed the system or the test scenario, skipping optional things sounds like the sort of thing that's going to cost you a lot of time at some random point in the future. Best to avoid, even if you look like an idiot to the EE that designed the board.
...which puts all the DC conversion on the motherboard.

Honestly, I can't tell if this is a good thing or a bad thing.

On the plus side, power supplies will be much simpler to design and test, with potentially better efficiencies.
On the other hand, all those additional DC-DC converters will take up quite a bit of space on the already crammed boards, and now you got more heat to manage.

Yes - pretty much exactly like that.

To make an analogy, kind of like “cryptopunks” in the world of crypto - except instead of “images” you buy & use as profile pictures, these characters have “behaviors, traits, persona, etc.” (revealed in the story) that a wannabe writer can reinvent & use to write an original short story, movie, novel etc. (but has to be copyleft licensed CC BY-SA)

I worked with this interchange format for a few years developing customs brokerage and logistics software. There’s like 50 different versions of the language when you count up official EDIFACT revisions and some poorly implemented versions of it per countries customs system. At one point there was even a XML version but I don’t think it caught on.

I once unintentionally broke a particular countries customs system by sending the maximum number of messages in a single interchange envelope. System was out for 3 days whilst shipping containers couldn’t be moved out of their major seaport. Still amazed they had Christmas that year!

Unfortunately modern computing requires Chrome, which runs comfortably in 32GB.
Here’s a quick example that is mentioned in the rationale of the commit: hardware that is offline and powered down for a significant amount of time. At boot, without an RTC (real time clock), it will have no idea of the current date or time. Most PCs have an RTC that will keep time for a while; if the time is wrong at power up, it’s not too big of a deal to fix it. For an embedded system, though, resetting the time could be a really big deal, especially if it is headless and had no continuous internet connection.
So, what happens when one of the shards goes offline, or forks? What are the cascading consequences for validators of other shards, if any?

Asking because I don't think there's a viable strategy for keeping all shard data around indefinitely, without giving up either scalability or durability:

* If the system requires cross-shard state-transitions to be mirrored to on a "central" chain (e.g. the beacon chain) in order to stave off unavailability, then that central chain's capacity is the scalability bottleneck.

* If the system requires cross-shard state-transitions to be mirrored instead to both shards in order to stave off unavailability, then ultimately all shards will host a non-trivial fraction of each others' state, meaning that the scalability bottleneck is the most-loaded shard.

* If the system requires some nodes to store full replicas of all shards in order to avert shard unavailability, then the system is no more scalable than the nodes required to carry this burden.
> It's also bad, because besides it essentially being theft

Nobody stole parts from Apple's warehouses.

So "essentially", it is not theft. Unless "essentially" means "by some outlandish, ridiculous, anti-popular and pro-corporate international legal fiction".
I had that happen on my Dell Vostro laptop just after 25 months with 2 y warranty. A hinge of the lid broke. I was able to contact support and order the new lid for about 35 euros and replaced it myself. Repairing was not super easy because I had to remove so many components & the screen was partly glued but it worked. After another year and a half the new part broke in exactly the same way.

That was circa 2012. I'm not sure it would be possible with 2021 Dells. We had lots more of miniaturization. And maybe this actually made laptops also a little stronger!!
On the surface, ebooks as a category of content make sense to allow direct sale as you described.

However, your use of Amazon also serves as an illustration of Apple’s case.

Among kindle enthusiasts, Amazon had notoriously neglected the Kindle product hardware and software platform.

From neglecting Goodreads to stagnation, to not including USB-C on its very expensive Oasis product, the whole brand is a picture of “we don’t improve it because we don’t have to.”

Kindle ebooks do offer interactive behavior like showing commonly highlighted passages and other light features.

But in most of the hardware, the interfaces are very laggy in comparison to iOS.

As much as text selection on iOS still isn’t great, it is certainly better than what you get on Oasis right now.

If Amazon cared to create a stronger social experience around goodreads and kindle for iOS users any time soon, it will leverage a huge amount of investment Apple has made in their software and hardware.

This is money Amazon had failed to invest themselves and it shows.

Its difficult because it requires parked money (nostro accounts) in foreign currencies. This imposes a risk and act as "dead capital".
At some point the cost to maintain the corridor is higher than the profit so the corridor is closed. Transaction then are routed trough other corridors which means multiple currencies swaps. More loses and more parties who want their cut. + it can takes days and the system are one-way so you have to ask the recipient if he got it to know.

I never really understood this things. Thank you for clearing this up.
The article confirms what I said:

> Mikhail Gorbachev: The issue of "NATO expansion" was not discussed at all and did not arise in those years. I say this with all responsibility. Not a single Eastern European country raised it, including after the termination of the Warsaw Pact in 1991. Western leaders did not raise it either.

> Another question was discussed, which we raised: that after the unification of Germany there would be no advancement of NATO military structures and the deployment of additional armed forces of the alliance on the territory of the then GDR. In this context, Baker's statement mentioned in your question was made. Kohl and Genscher spoke about the same.

In summary: no discussion, no promises, no agreement.

You misinterpret "violation of the spirit". He hoped for better future than currently is, a future of peace and cooperation that would not need Eastern Europe clinging to NATO for security from Russia and its puppets. Ideally, NATO would've become obsolete and Russians would be enjoying the same quality of life as Germans are. The reality is much bleaker and that 1990 spirit is dead. That's what he meant.
Yeah basically those wars have shown that unless the locals want democracy and you are willing to suppress all rebellion with an iron fist (like USA in Japan) then as soon as you leave, if you even win, it will go back to the way it was before just under a new dictator. It just seems like some societies just don't care if they're run by a dictator. Sure some will rise up but it's usually no more than a few percent.

But don't forget this part of the post: "and they have secured exclusive production of this chip, so you can't buy this for a dollar any more".

> There is absolutely no reason to recreate the whole chain to come to the current state. You either use the current state or you cant participate. If you would find an error in the chain whatcha gonna do about? Nothing. The current majority accepted state is all that matters.

All that matters is the valid history with the largest weight (longest chain rule in PoW). If an invalid branch somehow acquires more weight, it simply gets ignored (except by SPV clients in bitcoin, which trust others to validate). Exchanges/pools that accept an invalid branch are completely untrustworthy and should similarly be ignored.
