The storm is a single event in a chain of events that caused the satellites to fail.

It's not the direct nor the first cause.
Yes.

SpaceX intentionally launches the sats into an extremely low orbit. That way, sats that can not be controlled due to a manufacturing defect or whatever will immediately reenter, and pose no threat to other spacecraft.

Normal satellites are directly launched into much higher orbits, so if there is an issue they will be space debris for decades.
The answer is somewhere between who cares quit your bitchin, and fck no our jobs are in demand why work with sht software if you don’t have to.
If you’re more into watching a presentation, I recorded “A Brief History of Unicode” last year, And there’s a YouTube recording of it as well as the slides:

Those satellites are small but not infinitesimally small. So yeah, I'd say them going down in whole number units is a safe bet.
I use stuff like Zoom or Bluejeans maybe once a month. So I don't keep it installed. Instead, I just open a terminal and install it using Homebrew with the following commands:

% brew install zoom

When done, eradicate all traces with the zap option:

% brew uninstall -z zoom

It's pretty wonderful, IMHO.
I would be astounded if SpaceX asks NOAA's advice for how to position/maneuver satellites.
proximity detection is done via the blockchain
WhatsApp just recently added E2E and before that was still outclassed by telegram.
For some reason, not in Firefox, I don't know why, other apps like Jitsi does it any without trouble.

In Chromium/Chrome it does but limited to 9 people.
That's backwards IME. MySQL has bad defaults and bad error reporting, but you can work around these things by being careful about the configuration of every instance and making sure you always use strict modes and check for errors after each statement. Postgres has generally better defaults and better behaviour upfront, but things like true (master-master) HA or particular secondary index behaviour that's needed for some high-performance workloads are just impossible.
Seems cheaper to station troops in South Korea and even profitable to arm Taiwan.
Pretty sure that’s already on its way. One way we avoid giving card details to untrustworthy sites is to use a third party verification service. Suspect that this is well enough known that the headline should be construed as clickbait.
I run as well actually! I have found that the quality of thinking I get when walking is different enough that I try to make time for a walk as a separate thing. YMMV though, I am not super fit, perhaps my brain has a harder time with contention for oxygen than yours!
Really? At places I've been, you could definitely notify a lawyer of an issue, with the process ranging from walking up to their desk to looking up someone in the legal department and emailing them. I've never had cause to actually do it, but I certainly could have, had the situation warranted it.
I disqualify Garage because of missing erasure-coding. I know seaweedfs has it.
I've heard good things about these mini chorded keyboards you can use with your phone to avoid on-screen keyboards. Obviously nowhere near as convinient as built in, but it seems its the best we've got.

Oh other than that pinephone keyboard case, but that requires you to change phone as well
Not sure if this is still relevant today, but I registered as a Haskell developer at https://www.haskellers.com/ decades ago and for a while, I received a number of offers from companies searching for Haskell developers, primarily from fintech.

Not any recent ones though. Also not sure if that’s because that site has grown old or because I have.
Amazon expands medical consultation service
oh gosh, my Sun Solaris system must have been on 32-bit ints in that case.
There is plenty of room for active satellites, if we manage to clean up defunct satellites and space debris some time in the next decade. The more constrained resource is frequency spectrum.

I think SpaceX might run into trouble if they would refuse to launch sats from a competitor, given their dominant position in space launch. But they would happily launch sats for e.g. Project Kuiper by Amazon/Bezos or OneWeb.
Fun seeing which names I recognize from buildings around the valley. For some, I had no idea what they even do.
Deduce https://apps.apple.com/us/app/deduce/id351558195 is not a wordle clone (it's been around over ten years), and is much harder than wordle. It is iOS only and costs $3.

If you don’t know better, use a popular framework. You’re less likely to be wrong.

As an added benefit, you’ll probably find it easier to get help from outsiders.
Some people might, most won’t. Most under-18s certainly won’t.
I see crypto as a guy had this beautiful idea that the little guy could topple big powerful banks, and then all that happened is powerful people will find a way to exploit it for more power.

Crypto is neither good nor bad, but people are.
What does UX\UI has to do with E2EE?

The page reads "A few weeks ago cellphone companies — and KUOW — switched to a 5G signal." What's the link between 5G and an FM radio station, anyone has an idea?
There is an article in Nature on this which in my opinion is even better than the submission: https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-022-00367-1

I've had the experience of being on the opposite end of the spectrum when I made a joke site[0] that kept the connection open to every connected browser. Needless to say, it got hugged to death in the very first ten minutes.

What got it back up was switching from my homebrew webserver to Nginx and increasing the file descriptor limits. Switching to a battle-tested webserver made all the difference. I'm still not sure how many connections it can keep open now, but I don't have to worry about the static parts of the site going down.

It's crazy how many options it opens. With combination of remote work, many areas that were effectively shielded off from digital nomads, now have a chance to attract those tourists.
I remember as well rejecting lots of vacation places because of terrible internet. Poor local people stayed poor and I spent my money in popular tourist destinations that already had high internet speeds.
Overall its one of the factors that can transform the society and possibly partially break down the big cities.
> the only surprising thing about insurance is that people don't get more of it.

That's a weird formulation. To me, the most surprising thing is that people insure... wrong things. I mean, there are exactly two reasons to take insurance:

1. The economical effects of the event you insure against are beyond your comfort zone.

2. You are for some reason confident that the insurance company has miscalculated your risk profile.

Now, I ignore the second one. The question is, why people take travel insurances that cover lost sunglasses? I mean, to me, it would be obvious that the equilibrium is that people choose so high deductibles that they just can afford/are comfortable with, which means cheaper insurances for two reasons: Insurance company pays out less money and needs to do less work per paid out dollar. But high deductible insurances are almost non-existent.
If joy is the upwards deviation from the norm, then keeping the norm low allows more things to produce joy.

In any case, I'm not claiming a universal recipe here, just observing something that seems to have worked well for me.

It makes me much more comfortable in the age of WFH. I never know when someone or something might be listening.
Most airlines started charging for bags, or reduced the # of free bags from 2 to 1, during the 2008 recession
As a counter-point, I also have an older car with an analog radio and 100% prefer to listen to it while on the road than to listen "to my own music from the phone" (tangentially, I don't even have my own music on the phone, nor a Spotify-like subscription).

I found out that listening to the radio gets you lots of excellent unknown-unknowns when it comes to music, especially if you listen to public radio (which, in my country, has almost no ads). For example, during my last trip I remember that tuning in to the arts-oriented public radio station got me the chance of listening to some great tango classical music which I would have never thought of purposefully listen to.

I'm 100% with you when it comes to TV, the cable signal broke or something (some decoding stuff, can't tell) a couple of years ago and I didn't bother calling in the TV cable guys to look at it and fix it. It is quite excellent. We do have Netflix, which we spend some time on but not that much lately, plus I do have a TV-sports station subscription which I use for major events (like the Olympics right now). For sports I have to be careful though not to visit any sports website that day in order not to have the results revealed too early (I generally do not watch the events live).
> but this unlimited plan for universities assuredly contained terms that didn’t guarantee it forever

Interested to hear on which products Google makes any promises regarding lifetime (ie. guaranteeing at least 10 years availability for example).
Yeah somehow those crypto expert on social media don't even think about it, when they shout bitcoin will fix this.
They do crypto-analytics. So we're not directly making/offering currencies or NFTs, but we profit off of companies that do. B2B.
And benzodiapeines withdrawal is insanely painful to overcome.

Benzos are bottom of the barrel drugs as far as I'm concerned.

The fact that they are still regularly prescribed by some doctors to the elderly (for no other good reason than to get them off their face) is borderline criminal.
I just have to recommend codecombat.com. I’ve been playing it with my 6/7 y old and we can now discuss the simplest concepts like «hey this is a repetitive task, looks like a loop to me». He thinks he’s «gaming» so he doesn’t even know he’s studying programming!

The biggest roadblock is that we’re non-native-english so there’s few resources that are age+language appropriate. Few programming languages have been translated! The only one I know about is Excel/VB.
I didn't know people didn't know this (I'm assuming the article tells that drive a and b are for floppies?), so I've still learnt something.
They don’t seem to be trying very hard. The Buy button yields, well, suboptimal results
Not true. If the airports and regulatory agencies stop taking your landing slots if you don’t use them, then the planes will stop flying.

But the rules were put in there for a reason, so they have to figure out how they’re going to shift back to regular operation and start taking away unused landing slots again. That’s the hard part. It’s easier just to keep the rules in place and stick your head in the sand.
Box did this same thing at the large, public university where my department was responsible for the implementation and maintenance of the project.

It was so wildly predictable, yet every time I went to our businesspeople they claimed without irony that there would be “unlimited storage” and that “it’s not a problem”. Didn’t tolerate dissent. I eventually ended up leaving and claiming that it was a finite universe.

Now they are locked in hard, and trying to figure out how to keep the number of seats they paid for by removing accounts. No policy from the beginning on that, so they are having issues.

So predictable.

People don’t realize how invasive the UK govt is when it comes to internet monitoring.

Today if you try to access adult content on a UK mobile device you get blocked by age verification. You have to call your mobile provider and prove your age (it’s a once-per-contract thing). One of the ways you can prove your age is with a credit card. But I imagine it’s a large deterrent because not many people want to call Vodafone and ask permission to look at pornography. They’d probably just rather get a VPN.
I bet he just got opted into iCloud Drive documents and desktop folders.
There is definitely some truth to that but I feel that it is an unbalanced view. It really describes archetypal escapism. Not everyone travels to escape, and even for those who travel to escape it's usually not just an escape, you learn a lot while traveling. It enriches you, not just with memories which make you long to travel again.

You can certainly take the lessons about the mind, to be grateful and staying in the present moment, but also keep the variety in your life, whatever that means to you. That is what optimizes your experience.
What exactly are you refuting?

>I don't see how Telegram is any different to say, Signal. It may have better apps, UX, features and more which that alone makes it a compelling competitor

You have answered your own question there. Humans naturally chose paths that they find convenient, not necessarily safest or otherwise "better" paths.
None they are extremely different frequencies, plus FM radio is not even digital.
The app itself in terms of features and UX quality is superior to Whatsapp. What I don't get is how is this funded.
Isn't this just moving the problem, instead of solving it? The fact that browser APIs are so capable these days also means they enable almost the same opportunities for spying or creating other havoc, doesn't it? Especially if it means that I never close the browser because all my apps are running inside it.

The orbital data of all satellites is publicly available. It is calculated by the US space force (formerly US air force) spacetrack https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Space_Surveillan... .

You can get the data via several public websites. Here for example are the current orbital elements of all starlink sats in JSON format:

https://celestrak.com/NORAD/elements/gp.php?GROUP=starlink&F...

This is raw data. If you want somebody that processes this data into easily digestable graphs, that also exists.

It is not even that hard to display it yourself. Propagation libraries for most major language exist. Here is a display of all active sats, using wasm and rust that I did as a toy: https://rklaehn.ddns.net/allsats/
I don't. I like many things about my job, like the colleagues, the environment, heck, it even has the best desk I've sat at so far, but I'm under no illusion that, if my whole industry would disappear into the Ocean overnight, any tears would be shed for it.

I just need the money and found the least-soul-crushing way to get it, while I find my purpose in life elsewhere.
> It would have worked, every other card terminal we'd used in the country still supported magstripe, and I saw that her machine had a scanner. She didn't say the reader was broken or anything, just refused to try.

Just because the terminal has a magstripe reader on doesn't mean her merchant account provider accepts it. Plenty don't, or some transfer the liability to the store in that case.

> If the card hadn't worked I would've felt bad and probably done that, but she wouldn't even try it. Don't advertise that you take credit cards and get mad when customers try to use them.

In 2014 a card that doesn't have a chip might as well be broken. I don't think you can put this one on her.
You are supposed to look at the road when driving, not a screen full of album arts.
Probably new users don’t know it. And who has always used Unix based system (like me) usually call the drives /dev/sda :-)

There are privacy preserving technologies that can do this.

See the work of Jan Camenisch for example: https://jan.camenisch.org

But I doubt anything so well thought out would be implemented for this. Current government suggestions are credit card checks, checking identity against government passport records, or your mobile phone service provider.

I don't even understand the mobile phone one. My son has a mobile phone, but I'm the account holder according to the phone company. He's too young to enter into contracts for a start!

> If you're generating it randomly, then are you saying you have queried the master server for the number of volumes upfront & then just randomly distribute it that way?

You just need a unique id (which you generate it locally). And you need an writable volume-id, which you can query the master, master-follower, cache it, or query a volume-server directly.

> policy that suddenly disrupted their lives

It... doesn't sound like it? Canada's vaccination rate overall is incredibly high at 80%, for truckers specifically somebody in the thread above is mentioning 90%, which is believable.

So, there is the minority, the 10%, who are already losing money by idling, but also risk their job, more losses, fines and jailtime, just to absolutely refuse to do what... spend 5 minutes at a pharmacy? And do what 90% of their peers already did? Really doesn't sound like life disruption.
Just to be clear in the UK most of the private schools are called public schools for historical reasons [1]. I used to attend one of these public school institutions and their education quality is second to none because most of the teachers are Oxbridge (Oxford and Cambridge) graduates. Their teachers and headmasters are very well paid, and it's not surprising that the headmasters have the equivalent salaries to their UK ministers. Some minority students can attend the day school (non-boarding) with much lower fee and most of these day school students are sponsored by their respective school funds.

It really just comes down to interest rates. The fed tried raising them around 2018 but got spooked. This time around inflation might force them to stick it out. In an ideal world, we would have taken our medicine back then and try to slowly unwind things without the pressure of inflation breathing down our necks. But the combination of presidential influence and the pandemic resulted in adding more fuel to the fire.

I have been cash heavy for awhile though, so my alternate prediction is that things go haywire the day after I give up on trying to save and put it all in the market.
I was expecting that it is written in Go (because of the name), but apparently it is written in C. Looks like a nice program.
The reasonable basis is that Facebook have consistently shown themselves to be a bad actor. I'm not arguing that age checks are a good thing, just that I don't see a reason why the law can't explicitly target companies that are detrimental to society. You might then argue Reddit should also be included for similar reasons.

I would suggest this is generally better than an attempt to codify in law some kind of definition of what companies should be covered.
