We sometimes do move them by air, but rarely. We had an impressive string of accidents from carrying them in bomb position on bombers and fighters, dropping them in the ocean, various US states, other countries, etc., until about 1970 we dropped four on Franco's Spain. We took a while finding one of them, Franco threw us (US Nuclear Program) out, and we stopped transporting them bomb ready.

At the least, it's failed to pique Linus's interest. He's re-affirmed his disinterest in C++ in this mailing thread again[1]:

> You'd have to get rid of some of the complete garbage from C++ for it to be usable.

> One of the trivial ones is "new" - not only is it a horribly stupid namespace violation, but it depends on exception handling that isn't viable for the kernel, so it's a namespace violation that has no upsides, only downsides.

> Could we fix it with some kind of "-Dnew=New" trickery? Yes, but considering all the other issues, it's just not worth the pain. C++ is simply not a good language. It doesn't fix any of the fundamental issues in C (ie no actual safety), and instead it introduces a lot of new problems due to bad designs.

So, there are two possible reasons it's hard to make a choice.

One is that you're lacking crucial information that will make it clear that one choice is much better than the other. For example, if you've never programmed before, and you want to make some interactive web pages, it might not be obvious whether Python, C++, or JavaScript is a better language to learn. Picking Python would be disastrous, but you don't know enough to understand why yet. In this situation, you have several possible courses of action:

1. Ask someone who knows about the problem. Better, two or three people. Follow their advice.

2. Snoop on conversations between people who are doing what you want to do. Imitate what they're doing until you know enough to have opinions of your own. Nowadays with the internet this is usually pretty easy, although the web forums where leading-edge hardware designers chat mostly require not only knowledge of Chinese but also actual mainland Chinese friends to vouch for you in case you start posting stuff about Tiananmen Square and the Uighurs. This is not a new problem; my aunt had to learn German to get her chemistry degree.

3. Try several courses of action briefly, then abandon the ones that were least fruitful.

The other possible reason is that, although you basically have most of the relevant information, the difference between the possible choices is very small, so it's hard to tell which one is really best. You have become Buridan's Ass; toss a coin before you starve to death in the midst of plenty.
Everything is testable, if it's not then it was designed poorly.

I've seen 100%+ code coverage on cross-compiled bare-metal C++ embedded code. If that can be tested, then anything can be tested.

Nope. Swift manages memory via reference counting, which turns read-only workloads into read-write workloads, which is inherently problematic.

On the one hand yes, on the other hand Assange kicked off the bad-faith by singling out the US under a guise of "just looking for the truth" while conveniently ignoring the failings of basically any other country.
Your general backup strategy should follow something like doing full/incremental and/or snapshot based backups. So in the case of your media, if you do a daily snapshot then your daily backups would be very small. And if the media doesn't change that often you can keep weekly copies for several weeks, monthly copies for many months, and several years of yearly snapshots.

The other strategy is with tape rotation. You need to have about 30x the tape storage as you have online storage, so you can keep 7 yearly backups, 12 monthly, 6 weekly (all full backups), and 7 - 14 daily incremental backups.

I tried to eat one, single, 2500 calorie meal per day for a month. It was nearly impossible to fit that much food in my stomach. I switched to two large meals 3-4 hours apart and I still struggled to get it all down. I wasn’t trying to lose weight at the time, but I can see how this would be an effective weight loss technique.

After a few days I wasn’t really hungry in between meals. YMMV, but don’t assume this is as hard as it sounds if your goal is to lose weight.

There’s an initial condition problem though. It’s unreasonable IMO to retroactively create a new obligation of $25 times every phone Samsung ever made. It seems like you’d have to assess the core charge on new sales as of some date (especially if your stated intention is to encourage the design of longer-lasting phones).

If you agree to that premise, now the store has to have a way to figure out whether a given phone has a core charge refundable from the manufacturer, whether the phone is genuine, etc in order to not have the core credit they paid out rejected by the manufacturer.

That is another type of inflation, but it's an interesting point that you may care about both the general consumer inflation rate (for its interaction with the mortgage interest rate) and the rent price inflation rate.
I like the metaphor of dividing yourself into multiple selves, each accountable to the others. My “nighttime Bryan” could use some work too.
The only high risk areas are where you start, and where you finish, because those are known positions. Everything else can be variable....and nobody is any the wiser, because the only thing that's really different is that the trucks have zero DOT/MC numbers on the side and they have GSA plates on the truck/trailer....and I highly doubt that they stop at Weigh stations along the way. :)

This is writing to the register space of some peripheral so no, the compiler knows nothing about that. It is also extremely common for such peripherals to have requirements on the order of writes and otherwise silently discard them. They also have all kinds of side effects and don't behave like normal R/W memory at all (e.g. clearing an interrupt is usually done writing a 1 to a register which will read 0 after).
It's actually because of the 5-fold repetition and 75-move rules! The game is not necessarily over at 3 and 50 – you merely have the right to claim a draw.

They're heavy, and when you transport them on the road, you can a) add more (heavy) impact protection b) work at lower speeds, reducing the risk of a severe accident. Might also be cheaper, and easier to secure (if you transport it by plane/helicopter and it goes down by accident or attack, securing the crash site would be a nightmare).
Long time lurker here, just created an account since my friend had the same issue as you, so I started working on https://github.com/wodend/pysimpleplotter. It is still in development, but please give it a try and let me know if it better suits your use-case, keep in mind this was specifically designed to work with CSV/TSV output from scientific instruments. We plan on supporting exporting charts with styles for specific journals, and I will add better error handling when I get time.

Yes, actually.

Before the attack, all machines are active and being used. If you screw one of them up that happens to be running something obscure but vital, the screwup is your fault.

After the attack, all machines are dead so the screwup is blamed on somebody else. If you have the email/memo (you did print it out and file it, did you not?) showing that you informed the CTO/CIO, blame for the screwup will get buried.

Let C be the point where they meet in the middle and s be dawn.

It takes Lady 1 `12 - s` time to walk AC and 4 time to walk BC. It takes Lady 2 `12 - s` time to walk BC and 9 time to walk AC.

Let's find the ratio of time it takes Lady1 to walk a distance to time it takes Lady2 to walk a distance. The ratio should be the same for all distances since their speed doesn't change.

Thus, (12-s)/9 = 4/(12-s) <=> s^2 -24s + 108 = 0.
The quadratic formula gives us s = 6, 18. Since 0 <= s < 12, s = 6.
Human nature is what it is. We know the solution to disaster recovery is a backup plan but yet Ransomware continues to happen and getting worse. Your solution of doing the same is not a fix. What can you offer that helps rather than to continue to offer the same solution that does not solve the overall problem? I'm sure network admins have talked themselves blue telling management what needs to happen to protect their IT assets but Ransomware continues to be a profitable business.
Ok. It's systemically biased BECAUSE it is a power structure. What power structure does the left not own, or at least have a lot of control over?

Look at the Trump Phenom. He isn't hated because he's bad or ineffective or corrupt. He is hated because he seized power and Isn't a leftist.
Let's maybe start with the fact that in Chess and Go it is straightforward to find out if the game is over and if so, who has won, whereas with programming, it's not even clear what it means for a problem to have been "solved", unless you formalise it to an extent that is basically never done (and which is also usually more expensive than just programming the solution).

Solving Chess/Go and programming are really not much alike.

Saudi and Mexico don't produce many homegrown weapons systems either. Again, non-proliferation is well-travelled territory.

I think you misunderstood the headline because it's describing an unusual behavior. He wrote a manifesto (meh) about antisemitism.
The primary author of the Dictionary of Japanese Grammar book series, Makino Seiichi, presents a related hypothesis about sound symbolism in Japanese. He identifies a pattern that "hard" sounds like K often appear with words associated with distance between the speaker and the subject, whereas sounds like N are associated with less distance.

For instance, the clause nominalizing particle KOTO expresses a more objective view compared to NO.

Piano-wo hiku-no ga taihen. (Playing the piano is difficult (for me, because of arthritis or whatever)).

Piano-wo hiku-koto ga taihen. (Playing the piano is difficult (as such, for humans)).

The Japanese onomatopoeia is full of this also. For instance something lightly rolling is korokoro, whereas gorogoro refers to heavy rolling.

Sparkling, glittering: kirakira (-suru).

Slithering, wriggling, sliding: nyoro-nyoro.

Another example of sound symbolism in the grammar: questions.

The ka particle is the most direct question marker. If, say, you're scolding a child and want to say "are you listening to me?" angrily: kiiteiru-ka?

A soft way, with a completely different nuance, would be: kiiteiru-no?

See? "ka" is a hard sound with an unvoiced consonant at the front, full of high frequency content, like an object breaking, whereas "no" is low frequency.

Here is the question that was asked, and here is the question that was answered (quoting):

Asked: "constant time complexity"

Answered: "constant time when averaged over a series of appends"

In an interview, the onus is really on candidate to answer the question as it was asked. Candidate did not answer question, and there was a breakdown in communication. Candidates interpretation is that interviewers didn't know what candidate was talking about. Interviewers could just as easily have been frustrated that candidate did not see significance of the difference.

In my experience, interview technique requires establishing a common ground. As an interviewee, I find that the first step of answering a question is to first go through a number of possibilities starting with the most obvious first. They were most certainly looking for a linked list. This is a simple question with an obvious answer. It would have been good practice to start with the answer they obviously wanted, and then try to broaden their minds. Instead, candidate willfully derailed the interview.

To me this looks like a classic breakdown of communication with a root cause of hubris (quite possibly on both sides).

While both sides failed in this account, only one has the benefit of hindsight in writing about it here today. Time has offered an opportunity for reflection. What has candidate learned? "[look how clever I am] so joke's on them"

This article is illuminating:

"The expose painted a dismal picture of an overworked and underpaid organization where over a third of the personnel would put in more than 900 hours of overtime each year, equal to more than 35 extra days on the job. Couriers and agents spend most of that time on the road on long, boring drives unable to stop for protracted periods or even leave their vehicles in many circumstances. If they get pulled over by local law enforcement for some reason, the truck drivers aren't even allowed to speak to the police without the security force commander being present during the conversation.

Underscoring these issues, in 2010, the Department of Energy's Inspector General cataloged 16 alcohol-related incidents within OST in the preceding three years, including an incident of public intoxication where a courier was arrested and another where two employees ended up in police custody after getting into a drunken bar brawl. The report uncovered New Mexico court records showing the office's top executive had gotten a DUI after police came across him parked on a sidewalk apparently drinking in the car with a blood alcohol level of 0.15 percent."
Interviews are about shows, not boring answers.
There's a significant escort. Even if someone were to attack the convoy with a force big enough to overcome the escort, I'd expect the truck to be armored (and easily immobilized), and by the time they've cut through the armor to get to the loot, the air support will be on site...

While we are at looking at it pedantically (keeping also in mind that you said it's translated) I think their expectation of the answer is fair and they give more than a hint on it as well. Like you'd be stupid not to know what answer they want you to check.

"few" and "lone sections". As in statistically irrelevant. The assumption is that people 'get' for example (and its being taught over and over in driving school too) that if you speed to get through one traffic light in the city you'll not make it through the next one anyway and thus not really be faster. On the highway if you only speed once or twice for a short lone section you won't really notice in the end.

You don't even have to come at it with a nerd mathematicians mind and play tricks like Max speed near zero (not a realistic scenario so not something a driving exam would ask but definitely a fun scenario in a math lecture at university maybe). I can think of multiple sections in my city where speeding through the right traffic light when it's "cherry green" will net you a significant advantage because of the awful street and intersection layout and traffic light phases in that area. If you do the same just one traffic light after it though it won't help you at all because the next light will catch you unless you really want to cause an accident.

And if you are driving a 500km+ route and you can "speed" through it at 160+ km/h for a significant portion of it vs. going 120 that will save you a noticeable amount of time on the journey. This assumes something like Germany and your route being in parts with not many speed limits and not too much traffic so that you can comfortably cruise at 160 to 180 vs. arriving as a nervous wreck close to a heart attack because of all the near crashes from slowing down for the grandma going 100 switching to the left lane a few car lengths in front of you.
I used to feel the same. However over a few years I slowly reduced my meat consumption and learned how to make food delicious using vegetables. Nowadays I eat meat once a week when going to the pub with friends and otherwise not. Nowadays meat tastes kinda boring to me. Your taste change as your diet change.
I’ve really focused on eating when I’m actually hungry - not just bored or anxious.

If a device ever enters the second hand market, it is nearly always sold soon after it is replaced. Phones contain ungodly sums of private and intimate data, most everyone knows to find the button which wipes it. If they press that button, they are prompted to disable activation lock.

Activation lock has nothing to do with the phone's pin or passphrase, by the way. It's tied to an iCloud account. In the exceedingly rare instance where someone has forgotten the pin they used to unlock a device continuously for two or three years, they can disown the device by signing into icloud.com from any web browser.

It's curious that you don't even know how the process works, which makes me begin to doubt that you've ever had to deal with it.
But the Common Law does (except in Quebec), so there are some pretty significant similarities.
