Coriolis was wrong. The work done has nothing to do with distance. It only has to do with velocity. Accelerating the body from 0 to a final velocity is the work. This is what force does. If you know the distance and the acceleration, you can use them to calculate the final velocity with the well-known kinematics equation v² = 2ad. That is all. Likewise, if you know the elapsed time and the acceleration you can use the formula v = at to get the final velocity. It's simple, really.
I think many people use but it's actually less a cultural pressure than in the past. In generations past it was always expectation that somebody drinks, go back a bit further and smokes too. It's normalized to use most drugs to an extent, especially weed and party drugs, but it's also more okay to not even drink.

Automation is critical, but also the ability to override software that fails is critical, too. Armstrong overrode the failed LEM computer to land safely. Of the 3 737MAX software stab trim runaway incidents, only one crew followed the stab trim override instructions and saved their plane.

Pilots are never perfect, and neither is the software. Need both watching each other.
What does the price of a cone in relation to the price of a burger have to do with a cone being a loss leader or not? The price of a burger has absolutely nothing to do with their costs on the cone.

If the cone is profitable to sell, then it's not a loss leader and they have every incentive to sell as many of them as they can.
Nope. They only thing I focus on when doing that is changing the pupil size.
Softserve machines can be quite dangerous to consumers. Combine a nearly an ideal growth medium with lots of little nooks and crannies for stuff to sit around indefinitely and it’s easy to start serving something that’s deadly.

They would also be incredibly vulnerable. Such a tiny object, spewing out great volumes of heat, would stand out from the terrain "like dogs' balls".

Seeing that they would necessarily be close to the headquarters, a couple of heat-seeking missiles would do wonderful damage.

Way back around the 1960s, the big thing was for hovercraft to be the amphibious landing craft of the future. However, it was soon found that they weren't as quiet and unobtrusive as they were originally envisioned to be, and drew attention very quickly.

We don't know that it would've been affordable without public financing, but I would wager we'd be in the same boat now but with college entirely out of reach for most, instead of merely expensive.

Personally, even ignoring the vast differences in the competitive landscape between then and now, I think there is a substantial difference between a) objecting on antitrust grounds to a merger that even the FTC itself tacitly admitted was likely to have strong anticompetitive effects^[1], and b) the incessant nuisance lawsuits brought by Blue Origin against (directly or indirectly) SpaceX. And I think that's true even if you disagree with my characterization of them as "incessant nuisance lawsuits".

However, I'd counter this. As someone whose company has been using WebRTC for years, WebRTC is just too complicated, trying to do everything, and as a result bad for its main use case: a comms interface that works. In practice it inevitably doesn't work for some subset of users/platforms, and fixing it is an exercise in yak shaving because there are so many combinations of networks, codecs and signals, and JS makes it easy to bug out with race conditions. Weird problems under load are common on exotic hardware like VR headsets. If you don't have UDP support, like many typical web deployments these days, then you are also signing yourself up for maintaining a separate server.

The most technically appealing aspect of WebRTC is that it can be P2P, but even then, projects quickly realize that n^2 independent connections is not actually performant, which is why most run star topologies through a central server, neutering this most appealing aspect.

Companies like Discord have implemented great products on WebRTC with custom hacks/subsets, but for the average developer it's a beast of complexity you probably didn't ask for or want. WebRTC frameworks (like mediasoup) help a lot but they are leaky abstractions in a production project.

Doing WebRTC comms (IMO) means mostly throwing away WebRTC networking and leveraging the only parts that provide enormous value, which is the codecs! Thankfully that is being broken out into the WebCodecs standard: https://www.w3.org/TR/webcodecs/ With WebCodecs, you can use your own sane transport like a websocket while still getting acceleration and efficiency.
Ah, thanks a lot for that link, much more information! The OP looks to be a bit misleading as well, not all of the photographs were necessarily from 1898:

I’d modify this to say that for the last 30 years they tended to view success of their party’s platform more on the virtue of their good intentions rather than the outcome that platform or policy achieved.

Early in my CompEng program I would revise by condensing notes, rereading and practicing areas I didn't understand.

With the breadth of some topics (looking at you analog electronics) it was often hard to prioritise study to maximise exam marks.

By the end of my degree I realised the best practice was just doing past exams. And I found if I could consistently get 100% on previous exams that would translate to at least 80% on the actual.

It made me realise that the faster path to good marks was optimising for answering exam questions rather than a deep intuitive knowledge of the subject.

We are not talking about forcing them to GPL their OS or publish their API sources, or even allow uses of whatever they invented outside of their system.

This is just so wrong though. The McFlurry machine is a separate piece of equipment - a “blender” that the spoon attaches to and stirs the ice cream and your toppings. That is why the spoon looks like a straw, because the spoon essentially attaches to the end of a drill machine.

What the author should have said, and they’d have known this if they talked about this article to anyone who has ever worked at a McDonald’s, was that the Ice Cream+Shake machine is the piece of equipment manufactured and serviced by Taylor. It has dual chambers that allow one to dispense “shakes” and the other to dispense soft serve ice cream.

It’s just really frustrating to see how little people even bother to understand yet try to ‘dispense’ to others that they have some sort of authority or knowledge on a topic.

Check my other comments, I am well aware of these lawsuits.

That is why I specifically said:

I would argue SpaceX lawsuits prevented monopolistic process by NASA and Dod and allowed competition. BO profits from that and was able to compete and lost.

I think these are qualitatively different from the lawsuits BO is launching.

The other fundamental flaw is that post-scarcity is impossible, in that scarcity itself is paradoxically in huge demand. And human nature will create scarcity out of thin air where none naturally exists.

NFTs, original art, first editions, exclusive neighborhoods, trendy fashion.

Even judgmental aspects of society and things like activism & wokeness are basically examples of post-scarcity markets: social acceptance and personal status becomes a market of artificial scarcity in supporting the trendy causes, of which there's no limits on supply, since it's basically the abstract support of an idea. Once everyone's on board with the old-new cause, a new-new cause becomes unique and trendy, and early "possession" of the new cause is the new status symbol, as long as the artificial scarcity holds.

These cycles endlessly repeat precisely because there's no scarcity in trendy ideas, just a lag time. But there are always people who want to judge and be judged based on the trendy possessions, even if those possessions are intangible ideas and values/virtues.

It is a good question and one with many nuances. There are large software applications out there written in Lisp and other "fringe" languages that intersect with everyday life but they are hidden away in various corporate infrastructures.

Software trends develop for many reasons, not all of them logical. The time for Lisp being used as a general programming language may have passed, or the right set of circumstances have not yet come together. It is very difficult to predict programming language winners. What seems obvious in retrospect was not clear at all at the moment.

I would like Lisp/Scheme/Racket to blow people away with awesome software. Questions raised about price are quite valid. Forcing people to use Emacs is not a path to greater Lisp adoption. There are those of us who have found career niches using Lisp, but there needs to a better effort both in education and tools.

Resurrecting old Lisp environments and dragging them into the present day probably isn't the best solution. Perhaps the best solution is a VSCode environment coupled with real-world examples. More Todo lists and CRUD editors as examples haven't done a lot of good in driving adoption.

Your questions might make some uncomfortable, but I like that you are asking them!

> Deviating from a flight plan, even majorly, is orders of magnitude less dangerous than glancing at your phone on the highway.

No. These safety margins are expensive and they are there for a reason. Airliners don't expect a f-ing rocket to shoot by and just the air disturbances caused by it can seriously hurt or kill people.

> The ballsy part that deserves respect is pushing the envelope on safety, executing perfectly, and playing it off like it's nothing.

It does not deserve respect because it risked the safety of other people. I'd agree fully if all they risked was their live, but this way, it's exactly like going 250 km/h on a limited freeway - you're putting the lives of other people at risk and that's not cool.
Are you serious? Before health codes and competent companies the quality of food was shockingly bad all over the place, and there are still so many issues. People think covid is bad have very little idea how dangerous basic life used to be, and in no small way was this caused in part by food safety.

The problem remains getting people in the door. The masses need to be sold on Lisp first, and then maybe their employers will shell out for expensive environments.

You know the original meaning of the word "sophisticated"?

You know the "slug in the bottle" case?

Historically, people were not well protected, and traders took advantage of this. We survived because we're tough enough to ride out most food poisoning, but some childhood mortality probably comes down to this, as would some other shorter lifespan on the tables of mortality.

So yes, for most of human history we didn't have either corporations or laws about food hygiene. Except I think you'll find some of the earliest laws are in fact, about food hygene: market regulation was about markets in the literal, tables of goods in the square sense. The right to run a market came with the requirement to run it properly for the common good. Burghers prohibited butchers from dumping waste meat.

I have a heck of a time finding the content I want to watch on (paid) streaming services. I, like Pepperidge Farm, remember when Netflix had tons of stuff I wanted to watch, but now I can only find it on janky free channels that can't even figure out how to slot ads into spots where ads should go. To be fair, some of the low tier broadcast subchannels haven't figured that out either. But if I'm going to watch ad supported tv, would it kill people to not cut to ads 15 seconds before the break, then show that 15 seconds and then the stunning conclusion which sometimes has a bit of a recap? Also, I don't know why switching from programming to ads needs to retrigger HDCP negotiation, and it seems like the ads have stricter settings, because I'm more likely to get a fail screen when it goes to ads than when it goes to content.

I just want to watch 80s action garbage like the A-Team, Knight Rider, and MacGyver. I'd pay $5/month for an 80s service, I already got suckered into Netflix, Disney+, and Amazon; something that has the low class stuff I want would be an easy sell.
