People can change, but you might be underestimating the amount of control you have not only in choosing a person but building a relationship. It is very different than two independent people experiencing independent lives and changes therein.

> You are right that a married man contributes financially to his family.

I very deliberately left gender out of my post. I don't think it makes sense to bring it back in. A of the rest of your post is gender stereotypes and an unfortunately transactional view of marriages. This just reads as tremendously cynical and bounded view of what marriage actually is and doesn't reflect my experience as a married person whatsoever. In my marriage I want to give to my spouse because it makes me feel good to share love with my spouse. Not for any transactional reason. Not because I expect something in return. But because I love them.

Feel free to choose not to get married. It isn't for everybody. But I think you'll be a happier person by reorienting your view of the world here.

is an excuse for repair hostility under the guise of "security."

That's what every other company has been trying to do too, not just farm equipment manufacturers. If you look between the lines you'll find that the "security industry" is largely in favour of corporate-authoritarianism. Thankfully, not everyone is stupid, and I suspect farmers are actually more likely to spot the BS.
The signals are all rather low power, in very well known frequency bands. That makes jamming them very easy militarily speaking.
If you've played around with video formats long enough, you'll have seen something like this. This is the basis for most speed change "filters". Only the high end ones do any kind of pixel based motion estimation so that super slo-mo does not look like a slide show.

Also, it's not uncommon to get odd frame rates in the containers. Even on things as "innocent" as listing the frame rate as 29.97 vs 30000/1001 will affect timing (depending on usage). The variations on 23.976 is fun too: 24000/10001. 2997/125.

The muxer is an important step. When using software decoders, things can be a lot more flexible. Back when shiny round discs were popular, there were verifiers that ensured your muxed data was correct. When your decoders are in hardware, there is a very strict set of parameters the input is expected. Any deviation means the hardware cannot play the video. Early days of "cheaper" DVD software had issues with the muxing.
> Centuries of alternative use have resulted in the loss of any internal decoration and none of the original plaster remains. We must imagine that the heavy stone chancel arch (partly reconstructed) was surrounded with a painted decorative scheme in a palette of earth colours, somewhat like the schemes that survive in early post-conquest churches such as Kempley in Gloucestershire and Houghton-on-the Hill in Norfolk (illustrated below).

Are there any medieval buildings that have been restored with actual decorations? Or perhaps, are there recreations to present a living medieval castle?

One of my favorite places to visit is a small building in the middle of Colorado called Bent's Old Fort [0], maintained by the National Park Service. It's a near 100% recreation of a fort that had been reduced to the foundation. They painstakingly rebuilt the fort based on historical records, going so far as to plant cactuses on the wall as deterrent, and allowing a peacock to roam around. The place really does feel alive, more-so than a room with some plaques and a roped-off display of what a room might have looked like. I've always wanted to visit a castle with the same feel.

Yes exactly. Contrast with my friends who have Teslas who never use the autopilot or self driving functions.
Sure, but clearly other people are. As an outsider it's clear why people do, the risk drives away some of the competition (people like you), and I'll presume you are a thoughtful and skilled engineer. So here you have a situation where you have an increased risk of a rug-pull without recourse (maybe already a risk for you anyway), but plenty of money on the table, and good principled engineers like you choosing another route.

The last time I had trouble with my personal AWS account, which I use very intermittently, by the time I figured out how to even file a ticket for having trouble logging in, I was so spun up that I'm not sure my report even made any sense.

I had an old account that I had stopped using before my credit card got reported as stolen, but I owed like $30 which they couldn't bill me for so my account got closed. Once you have a closed account the entire AWS workflow has mystery failure modes that don't show up the rest of the time. A closed account is closed forever, and it mucks up their whole UI (as if their UI needs any help in that dept)
How to Fix Our Broken Relationship with Covid Math
Obviously we navigated acceptably, including aircraft, long before the development of GPS in the 1970s. GPS is easy and precise and can make risky edge cases (like very low altitude flight) safer or allow higher density in air spaces and such, but it's not necessary particularly not at the government aircraft level. Inertial guidance, ground based Doppler navigation systems, and even automated celestial navigation in combo can produce great results just at a much, much higher expense. That isn't an issue for the leader of a major power though.

The SR-71 was a cool example of a system that used a hybrid of automated celestial navigation and inertial. Fully self-contained.
Presumably Putin's flights, on Russian-built aircraft (specifically the Il-96), use GLONASS?

Of course, the VC-25A used as Air Force One has a cockpit station for a navigator, specifically so that it can use old-style navigation methods if access to GPS and other navigational aids is lost. Putin's modified Il-96-300PU may well also have one.

To be fair, Toyota and GM make a hell of a lot more cars, so their total amount of R&D is probably pretty good. It likely dwarfs Tesla's budget.

Which honestly makes what Tesla is doing with the budget they do have all the more astonishing.

I'd be interested to see a breakdown for software budget. Say what you will about FSD, Tesla produces far better software than GM, Ford, VW, or Toyota.
As an errand example. I schedule my dental appointments 6 months out. If my work gives me only 24 hour notice I have to be in the office for a meeting that didn't exist until now, it makes no difference if I live a 6 hour flight away or a 30 minute walk away.

Now do the same for a 1hr meeting at 10am or 2:30pm with a need to be able to dropoff or pickup school children at 9am or 4pm.

I have a 38' steel sloop with 400w of solar + a wind generator on-board.

I'm not a full-time liveaboard, but I have been on-board for the last couple of months and you can definitely make it work.

Sailing is labor intensive, but not in the ways you imagine. Navigation, docking and provisioning are all straightforward.

Where it can sometimes feel like a full-time job is maintenance. Everything on a boat wants to break all the time. Doesn't matter if the vessel is brand new or 40 years old; finding a balance between maintenance and life is difficult.
Composition is table stakes now, I’d say pure functions (no side effects) are what make FP important with or without types.
Also, "jamming" can include sending distorted signals. These distortions can be a spoofed or malformed packet of data. Knowing what happens when a navigation tool suddenly thinks the vehicle is on the other side of the world is important. As is, ensuring that a garbage signal won't crash it.
This quote was from almost 20 years ago. Python wasn't that popular in the early 00s, although it wasn't exactly obscure.

At the very least, the school I went to in the early 00s didn't have any classes that used Python. And none of my friends learned it from their schools either. The language exposure I got was Java, C, C++, Prolog, Scheme, Perl, Fortran, and ASM. That includes AI and programming paradigms classes.

Nowadays, Python wouldn't be the bar you use.
No, its not. If I point a gun to your head, and tell you that I am going to shoot you, if you do not "agree" that the moon is made of cheese, you are not actually "agreeing".

We both know, that you do not agree that the moon is made of cheese, in this situation. I have just made words come out of your mouth, to something that you do not agree with.

To say that they "agree" is just a silly word game, that does not reflect the truth of the matter, and instead is playing into propaganda that denies the reality that Taiwan is already a country, and is already independent of china, and that Taiwan is not interesting in being taken over, or taking over china.
Anything's a good reason to ask for a raise if you think it is.
> That's not even remotely true.

It is though. For CEA experts at least. And considering what those experts did to the EPR, i'm pretty sure they are not as "pro-edf" or "pro-nuclear" as the Green tell they are.

> Fessenheim was a huge security risk and would not have passed any security checks in a country not as fanatically pro-nuclear as France.

You're dissing CEA engineers and physicists here.

> That says: It was in an seismic active zone

This reason is bullshit. Fessenhein is a PWR reactor, unless you have something like 7 on the Richter scale, the reactor will likely just hold. On a 7, you have leakage risks, and maybe on a nine you'll get a meltdown?

Do you think its likely to get a 7 or more there?

> unprotected against plane crashes or terror attacks.

True, plane crashes are not an issue though, unless you know exactly where the core or the pool is (one is a much much bigger issue than the other obviously). And to engage security mesures you need to either: push a big button, or cut electricity. Once the grid is down, there is no way to make the core explode, and if you take more than 30 minutes to put a bomb on it, it probably won't even meltdown. To reengage the reactor you need knowledge, so a sabotage is still possible.

> There also were a bunch of accidents.

True, and bad ones. Hiring contractors is good for us, earning that much doing pretty much nothing, but ultimately bad for the company, especially when you need to keep competency at a high level. Not the only nuclear plant in France where incompetency reigns from what i heard.

> Those old reactor designs weren't safe.

Untrue, but true for fessenheim. No commercial French reactor active right now are as unsafe as let's say Fukushima, because our Gen2 were that much better (as were the US's). Not as well designed as CANDUC type, but PWR are stable and do have passive protection against a chain reaction or a leak. Also, you can just move the core out and voila, no more nuclear reaction. Anyway. The second wave was improved upon "thanks" to the TMI incident, and even older reactors got better passive risk reduction upgrades and better detection.

But, Fessenheim did had a lot of troubles (and by troubles, i mean incidents from human origin), and while the cuve could probably last another 30 to 40 years, the PWR tech also have big wear and tear effect on surrounding equipements. The CEA accounted for this in their rapport, and precognized a long downtime to put thing in order.
Seriously?

People talk. They talk HERE.

Frankly, I read that surprise as real surprise all the PR didn't make it go away.

My feeling is that "meat appreciators" aren't choosing them.
They're being eaten by people who just default to a meat a their protein of choice - and we'd be better off pushing something that's non-meat and tastes better.

No it's because so many people have an allergic reaction to the idea (and ideology) of Vegan. People who eat plant-based tend to be more (health based) pro-veggie than militantly anti-meat. It's trying to promote a healthy vision with out the quagmire of the extremists.
I find this argument difficult as this is kind of how China operates. This free sharing of IP was claimed to enable untold amounts of innovation. However what I actually see for the most part is a market flooded by shitty clones of original IP.

For example, take this dumb phone[1]. It is powered by a Mediatek processor whose IP is freely shared. The innovation that resulted is not something better like an iPhone. Instead 1000s of different shells or an additional button here or there.

I guess this scenario might be a bit different since we are talking about software...but i'm not so sure.
Yes, his computer is on my VPN and has a static IPv4 address inside of the VPN, 10.42.42.4, as well as a static IPv6 address inside of the VPN, fc42:4242:4242:4242::4.

I updated my comment above to note that I use my VPN for connectivity between hosts only, but across the Internet. So I can connect to any host in the VPN from anywhere in the world, but all of the hosts still send all of their other traffic via the same interface that they would if they were not part of the VPN.

So when he browses the Internet, his traffic is routed by his ISP directly and the VPN is not involved, and the same goes for my own computers and other devices.
That's not accurate. My understanding is the KMT agrees, and DDP doesn't (specifically: 1992 consensus), and the fact that the population opinion has been shifting towards independence is the primary tension currently.

At any rate, summing it up as "the RoC agrees" would seem to simplify a cultural argument along the lines of "the US agrees completely that guns are good".

I quit Amazon 3 weeks ago after nearly a decade. Work from home was one of the biggest reasons.

In my view, the personality traits that are conducive to promotion up the Amazon leadership ladder are strongly aligned with loving work-from-office. Most people L10 and higher not only don't understand the desire for permanent work from home, I think maybe they cannot understand it. It's just too foreign to many of them.

The first announcement was "We can't wait to be back in the office, and we know you can't either". Senior engineers started quitting. Then it was "Okay, okay, you can work from home 2-3 days per week, but only with your L10's approval". The exodus continued.

Now it's "Fine, you can work from home with your L8's approval, but you better be ready to show up on 24 hour notice if we say so!". The biggest benefit of work from home is not needing to commute, and lower cost of living by leaving the HCOL cities.

They don't get it. Other companies do. And anyone who has spent 5 or more years working for Amazon is well-trained enough to get a better paying job with a company that understands the cultural shift that just happened to the developer world.

Edit: I know not all developers are anti-office. But for those of us who are, working for people who don't understand us, who make policies based on what works best for them, is a problem.
Two Weeks of Japanese School Lunch
They say what the PRC forces them to say but de facto don’t believe in it. It’s a complete misrepresentation to argue that Taiwan agree with China regarding reunification but with reversed roles.

Taiwan is a democracy and a majority of Taiwanese want independence but argue for keeping the status quo in order to avoid a war (both the KMT and the DDP - their disagreement is more technical than that). Some wanted Taiwan to declare it in the 90s to force the hand of the USA and win a decisive war but this position seems more precarious nowadays.
They do, actually, but you have to seek those courses out yourself. Problem is that most engineers don't realize that Psychology and Organizational Behavior are important to learn until it's too late.

Enough current for what?

Power = voltage x current = (voltage) squared / resistance.

The little rectangular 9V batteries have very high internal resistance as well as low energy capacity. The nominal 9V can easily fall below 6V with heavy loads.

If you only need 1 watt (times 2 for stereo), loud enough for average rooms with speakers of reasonable efficiency, then one 9V battery would be enough. It wouldn't last long though.

With two in series you can go louder, provided the amplifier is rated for the higher voltage.

Remember to put fuses in your power leads (except the ground return). Good quality batteries can get hot trying to power a short circuit.

> Just over 10 years ago pretty much only way to install latest apps on your "internet communicator" phone was to go to xda-developers, browse the forum and download some random files and trust they won't brick your Windows Mobile device.

I had an LG Chocolate in 2006 and you could get new apps on your device in a few ways, but primarily through LG's own "app store" which was just an app pre-installed on the phone. At the time it wasn't much different than what we have now really, just much less polished. In the end, it still comes down to the phone manufacturers (and carriers) deciding what apps you can or cannot easily install on your phone.
