Singaporean political academies trained 50K CCP cadres until recently. Their system is/was highly well regarded and emulated, but within the last decade CCP has evolved/developed beyond the Singaporean methods designed for small fish geopolitics. LKI was the preeminant statesmen that every CCP leader visited/consulted with personally, outside of state-to-state dialogue. I think Trumps America, drama HK in has turned more and more away from representative democracy. Western system in general started losing luster post 2007 GFC. Whatever model PRC will pursue in future, it's not going to look towards "declining west" until west sorts out it's issues.

I clicked the "OneWeb" button and was surprised how many satellites they had up, given that they only recently came out of bankruptcy.

I'm worried by OneWeb. Unlike Starlink, their satellites are so high up that if they die, they will just stay there, cluttering up space, unlike Starlink's which are so low that they will fall out of the sky on their own in ~5 years.
For me its the fact that they have still not solved the update problem more than a decade later. All Android devices get 3 years updates max. While my 7+ year old iPad Air 2 is getting iPadOS 15 soon.

Google has had numerous proposed solutions for this but yet their own devices do not get more than 3 years updates.

Google excels at apps and web services where Apple fails. I still use the google services on my iphone because they have native apps on more platforms and their web versions are better while icloud web hardly has 10% of the features it should.
A poor hardware implementation would do more harm for their prospects than no hardware implementation.
"elevator crashes", where the car falls to the bottom of the shaft.

Yes, that was the kind of incident I was mainly commenting on.

The list of elevator accidents is mostly composed of ones involving construction, freight, and mine-shaft elevators.

I probably should have made a point to qualify what I said above as "passenger elevators in office type buildings" or something. Definitely did not mean to include mine-shafts / construction site elevators, etc.

That said, I don't have the original reference handy, but I recall that where I read that original statistic was a credible source.

Possibly these: https://littlefreelibrary.org/ourmap/

There's quite a few in San Francisco, I always enjoy running across a new one. Often the owners do some fun themed decoration for them as well. Can't say I've ever actually read anything from one, but I have dropped off some books before.

>We're destroying the earth and suffocating in our own waste

To be clear: Global warming is bad. It is going to kill tens of millions of people, drown a lot of cities, and render alarmingly large sections of the planet uninhabitable to unmodified humans.

It does not actually pose an existential threat to technological civilization. Even 5C of warming would not kill all humans.

The cities will just move north. We are not in danger of running out of oil or coal before transitioning to clean electricity. 2100 will look very different, (less international trade, almost certainly no unified global internet like we have now) but regular ole global capitalism will keep rolling along.

Humanity is not dealing with global warming very effectively. But it won't kill 100% of all humans. It won't even kill 50%.
Not only this but I've seen databases that accept emojis but break them during some form of migration. It's fine to break some kind of description, but not username and password.

Completely different experience at the current organisation I'm at. Openshift has provided a stepping stone off of on-prem VMs and into the cloud. They just migrated the on-prem cluster to a AWS cluster. Next step is to move off Openshift and into cloud native where possible. Really it has provided a path to discontinue legacy services and build out a more modern system/service fairly quickly.

I wasn't around when it was introduced so can't talk to the initial complexity/pain but the current team responsible for it is surprisingly small.

The responsibility for everyday use has been delegated to all teams which gives them a capability to build and deploy frequently. That's a real enabler.

Most of the things that make this work are not really technology based, good collaboration, sharing knowledge and practices and being able to ask and get help quickly but I do think Openshift itself isn't bad at all. It does appear to provide a very decent build, deploy and run platform.

Was there particular problems, or just "all bad"?
There are meme "speedrun any%" videos on YouTube for this sort of thing, so there are probably some real ones out there.

FWIW I made a female character on FFXIV (partly to see if this sort of thing would happen) and never encountered this. Maybe I put out a male vibe with how I move and play (I heard we jump around a lot more). But in my experience that game's populace skews far more heavily female than normal, and a lot of the guys I met also play as female characters so maybe that's why.

The Problem of Denial (1994)
The CCS protocol is consistent, but the Europe and North American plugs are not the same.

The North American connector is Type 1 and only works with single phase AC. Europe uses Type 2 which works with both single and 3-phase power.

Since the communication protocol is the same adaptors are fairly simple (especially for AC charging), but DC charging would likely have cooling and amperage limitations from adding another electrical connection to the path.
Ah thanks—I hadn't noticed it.
Yes. When you type 8 characters per second, it makes no sense to have to unglue your hands from the home row.

On the other hand I find that raw typing speed has barely anything to do with development speed.
Exactly. That should be the most basic starting level.

And obviously we don't need centuries, 50 years is enough.

It's all set up for fear.
I use a vertical mouse and I've mapped the extra buttons on it to allow for easier navigation without using the keyboard. It has two buttons near the thumb rest. I've mapped one to be shift so I can hold it to make the scroll wheel scroll horizontally and I've mapped the other to be enter. Clicking the scroll wheel is mapped to ctrl+v. These have made one-handed terminal and design navigation much more efficient.

Does it? TV is a product category and not an individual product line. So if we look at smartphones in general, I would say there are far more smartphones sold globally than there are TVs. Currently there are 0-1 TVs per household typically while there are 1-4 smartphones in a house on average.

Smartphones also get replaced on a much shorter timeframe than TVs while costing about the same.
Your phrasing it this way reminds me of the excellent book Algorithms to Live By. Highly recommended!
If there is no evidence what exactly are you giving benefit of the doubt for?
The notion of designing a stable regulatory regime upfront is a mirage. It's how you get these giant corporations that pay no tax thanks to their double Irishes and have "independent contractors" instead of employees so they can avoid paying their social responsibilities.

The legal/regulatory regime should be reasonable and predictable, but that should mean human judgement rather than blindly following coded rules like a smart contract. If you're a corporation that's large enough to be impacting society, you should expect society to have a say in what you're doing, and that means that as you do new and surprising things, there will be corresponding regulatory changes.

And to restate your point, the business may gain greatly from diversity in leadership, but the in-group mainly stands to lose. If they don't stand to lose then it's not really power sharing, is it? In my experience, these efforts hit the wall the moment they seek any real piece of the power pie. That's the difference between talks-the-talk and walks-the-walk.
> Isn’t just solving the captcha enough to reach the page?

sure but why not using an alternative service that doesn't have the reCaptcha to start with?

Edit: Just to explain more the problem: depending on your privacy settings, it might take up to a couple minutes to solve the reCaptcha because Google makes it much harder for users who are running anti-fingerprinting tools in their browser. This is also my case. In the end, I usually just give up and don't visit the page in question.
I mean it's perfectly intuitive to me that a pyramid of rocks isn't going to collapse, so you don't need a container to hold it in. The closer analogue would be pouring sand in to a tube vs. pouring it in to a bottle that widens below the neck - it's intuitive to me that the bottle would be under enormous strain to hold the sand in. (And, incidentally, the part of the bottle where it widens would be applying extra "weight" to the sand below it)
I just asked my wife. She has no idea what it is. I think for people they don’t keep up with tech and have reliable internet options it’s an out of sight out of mind.

This sounds a bit like "just say no".

There must be hundereds of different reasons why different people consume (sometimes compulsively) various media of all types, some related to them individually, some related to the circumstancews they find themselves in, some for reasons so bizzare you wouldn't believe them unless you witnessed them.

Register windows were one of the few things that worked well in Itanium. I ran some networking benchmarks (interrupt and function call heavy code) on the first generation hardware and the combination of efficient hardware register spills combined with pretty massive memory bandwidth compared to x86 at the time lead to quite impressive results. Sadly, it took ages for the first gen hardware to ship, plus it had this huge chunk of a useless x86 core taking up valuable die space. And I stubbed my toe on that machine way too much...
Can they? The US government has very limited "hard" control over what information is published, e.g. there are no banned books in the US and it would be impractical for the government to try to impose any such ban, in stark contrast to the PRC.
It seems that you're right - ISO C doesn't have standard macros for this. That said, since this code is ARM-specific, and you are already leveraging the ACLE header <arm_neon.h>, I think that a negative test for __ARM_BIG_ENDIAN is appropriate.

To be clear, it wasn't my intention to trivialize the amazing accomplishment of reusable rockets, and your point is perfectly valid. I should have left it at me being excited for long term space habitats, and not even mentioned reusable rockets. As you've pointed out, of course reusable rockets will provide immense value to any space habitat. My unspoken position was that there are other ventures worth pursuing aside from the great leaps that leave us all in awe. The little things, like growing space lettuce, intelligent augmented reality to assist astronauts, etc.

Almost everything you see in day to day life is paid for by your local, not federal, taxes: fire, police, roads, parks, schools, etc.

Income tax is federal, and federal roads are pretty darn good in the US.
The therapists (and the app) are supposed to capitalize on improvement. Saying that they capitalize on pain takes a dystopic perspective that I find unjustified. Until they are shown to employ dark patterns, we shouldn't dismiss them like that.

Nationalists everywhere are insufferable. The aspiration for "lovable" PRC propanda is just aspirational. IMO very little chance PRC will be able to out-propagandize west/US especially among west/US aligned partners. Language/cultural divide too big. I think domestically people will just settle for less cringy interntionational rhetoric, which itself is a losing game since western media will interpret translations with liberty regardless. It doesn't matter that PRC citizens are relatively apolitical on the whole, with 1.4B population statistics there's will always be too many absurd nationals to paint narrative. Really PRC strategy of maintaining different internet/cultural bubbles and targetting msgs at more receptive Chinese diasphora audiences is on point. Once attempt at "lovable" propaganda fails, PRC will pursue Russia style disinformation because ultimately that's whats most pragmatic given the divide and realities of competition. Also more of those PRC cartoons that called out western hypocrisy that was well recieved domestically and made western media look ridiculous by coordinated labelling them photographs. Or calling out Canadian indigenous drama, Australia enviromentalism etc, stuff that has had more ramifcations on the domestic politics of Canada and Australia leaders than west pressing on XJ/HK/Tibet, which Xi doesn't lose sleep over.

My son has epilepsy. He had his first seizure in 2016, when he was five years old. It was almost bedtime and he was pretending to be a frog when he suddenly collapsed to the floor and started convulsing. My wife and I have no history of epilepsy and neither of us had seen a tonic-clonic seizure before. I thought he was dying, his life pouring out of him with each convulsion. My wife called 911. His face was blank. I grabbed him and ran down the stairs to the street in my underwear, howling for someone to please help us. Some people stared and some came running to help, one of them a nurse, who helped me put him down on the grass in a recovery position. I never got her name. My son started coming to as the ambulance arrived.

That was the worst moment of our lives. A month later he would be hit by a series of seizures in rapid succession and we would find ourselves in an intensive care room in BC Children's, where I sat on the floor and watched a team of doctors and nurses struggle to stabilize him. That was also the worst moment of our lives.

I want you to know that about 1 in 10 will experience a seizure in their lifetime. And I want you to know what to do if it happens to someone who is with you. You should keep calm, ease the person to the floor, and turn them gently to the side. Put something soft under the person's head and clear the environment around the person of any hard or sharp objects. If the person has never had a seizure before or if the seizure lasts more than five minutes, call an ambulance.

One of the games I used to play that wasn't reviewed very well was Tom Clancy's End War (the online multiplayer died pretty quick). It was the one with the gimmick / sometimes really useful attribute of being purely controllable via speech recognition.

It was certainly more forgiving of casual players - you could only have 12 "addressable" units in the game at a given time. A unit was 4 vehicles or 4 groups of 5 infantry. Rather than having to produce one soldier or vehicle at a time, they'd deploy in their groups. "Healing" them could be achieved by evacuating the unit off the map, which would return half the unit's deployment cost. They could then be redeployed later at full health. Infantry units could be evacuated by air, vehicles had to drive off the map's boundary.

There was a fairly simple circle of vehicle hard counters - Helicopters were highly effective against Tanks, which were highly effective against IFVs (infantry fighting vehicles), which where highly effective against Helicopters, etc.

There were two types of infantry units - rifleman and combat engineers, and were vulnerable to everything, but could be placed in cover to drastically increase their defense stat. Rifleman (in cover) were highly effective against other infantry units and combat engineers (in cover) were highly effective against all vehicles. Rifleman could capture control points / forward deployment points faster than combat engineers.

IFVs could be used to move infantry units quickly around the map, and rifleman could be redeployed by air at the cost of some deployment points.

Artillery was effective against everything but helicopters (which were highly effective against them), whether units where in cover or not. Downside was that it was vulnerable to everything, but this rarely mattered because they could engage from half the map away.

There was also a command vehicle which could manufacture robots. You had a UAV for spotting and guard robots which would be tasked to guard a control point or a unit.

Match start had you select 3 units to deploy first. A common strategy was to start with a command vehicle, an artillery unit, and a rifleman unit. You'd immediately send the rifleman unit to capture the nearest control point, and by the time they finished you'd have had enough time to get an IFV unit in to pick them up.

You'd deploy your UAV to the enemy's side of the map to see what they were up to, and have the command unit build defense robots for the artillery to cover for their extreme vulnerability to air units.

I had fun with it anyways.
The simplest analogy to programming is a recipe.

Add X,
Add Y,
Do Z till Z is in Q state.

So while/for loop imo are really simple to get. Function calls are a bit harder but not much.

Accomplishing tasks with recursion? That's utterly counter-intuitive imo. A given person can learn it but feels like a trick. Maybe a cool trick they're cool for having learned and maybe a weird trick someone is pushing on them.

Recursive solutions to programming problems can be great once you get the whole idea but recursion is not an easy way to start people programming. It might not be a bad way - if you're a highly committed 17 teen year old hot learn new things and willing to put in serious effort. learning LISP at MIT back when they taught is something would have like to have done. IE, Hard isn't necessarily bad. But don't expect people who want to put in minimal effort, who are terrified by just showing up to learning programming, to learn this hard way. And especially don't expect them to appreciate that you decided to teach this way.

A lot of programming geeks are in denial about the inherent conceptual difficulty of functional programming (which isn't even to say fp is bad, it has many virtues but easy for novices will never be one).

Edit: To put it in the author's terms, there's hierarchy of modalities and procedural processes are on the bottom and thus everyone can get them. Maybe 1-1 tutoring can different.
In addition to wind drag, the additional weight contributes to the acceleration work required by the engine. This acceleration is occurring during cruise speeds as well as starting from rest (you can tell because your car engine is louder during cruise speeds than it is while the car is idling from rest.) Anything towed or carried contributes to the weight of the car which means the car is accelerating more weight. The curve isn’t perfectly linear with additional weight, as you noted, but the reduced MPG is measurable with a number of passengers in the car, let alone a towed car. A reduction of only 10-25% mileage might not be noticeable to a less observant driver but that isn’t to say it’s effectively the same.
"Can you tell me about a time you didn't get along with a colleague and how you worked through that situation?" One of my go-to questions and often illuminating. A good answer I have heard somewhat often ends with, "Stupid Jerk was never my friend, but we figured out how to work together and produce value anyway."
Yes, you use OCI images. The OCI format is a specification for container images based on the Docker Image Manifest Version 2, Schema 2 format.
Now, there are multiple ways to build these images, some which are better than using Dockerfiles, though mostly people still use Dockerfiles.
I've never used them for programming / building things, but that's somewhat based on limited type of development I did. I can see macro commands being useful if I frequently need to recompile / deploy / make / push / merge / whatever. More structural type things than strict programming which I've found not repetitive enough.

That being said I've used programmable keyboards extensively for macros when in sysadmin / ops roles in the past though, from simple one line commands and shortcuts, to "do 80% of work for me". Never used programmable mice though as the buttons seemed too fiddly / inconsistent for me to be 101% which one I'm hitting.

How did you get on with the keyboard? Also feel the advent GSM mobiles which brought T9 input killed that off. But read reports iirc of 60wpm being achieved by many, which whilst not epic, is darn impressive for one hand. Though looking at the Morse code wpm world record, it seems like track and field skills from the arcade days were left untapped in today's keyboard days.
