A few ideas:

* A VESC based ESC instead of the HobbyWing one will give a lot more control and telemetry, including a phone app and detailed current use logging. I know from RC planes that HobbyWing ESCs are very high quality, but VESC is specifically written for drive systems and has a lot of features.

* LiIon or LiFePO4 round cells are safer and more energy dense than LiPo pouch cells, at the expense of current sink capacity you don't need. They're also cheaper.
Why would anybody continue operating nodes once all the pre-programmed bitcoins are minted? It's currently minted over 18 million and the max is a little over 21 million. It rewards its miners with new btc every so often. If it loses miners then transactions take longer to complete. Paraphrasing from this: https://www.quora.com/What-if-everyone-stop-mining-Bitcoin

If the main developers decide, no, we can mint more coins then the premise gets even more muddy.
""5G interference could adversely affect the ability of aircraft to safely operate," said the bosses of Boeing and Airbus Americas, Dave Calhoun and Jeffrey Knittel, in a joint letter to US Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg.

""Airbus and Boeing have been working with other aviation industry stakeholders in the US to understand potential 5G interference with radio altimeters," Airbus said in a statement."

I'm reading the Cambridge history of medieval europe and it observes quite frequently that people had literal real fears of the afterlife, and that the word-is-my-bond thing had some immediate currency. Popes were able to issue directions to kings and dukes, which required them to do things, and without Stalin's "where is the pope's army" reality, they accepted the direction. [I personally suspect that the ability of the pope to use religious fervour to call on OTHER kings and dukes for an army probably heavily influenced things, but it would be wrong to deny the religious aspect. Life was short and brutal, and there was no evident tolerance for athiesm, at least as recorded in this kind of history. It took the later rennaisance and reformation for aspects of roman/greek atheism to enter the conversation, and christians were just as likely as any other faith to deny truths in other written works and destroy them]

A belief that a kiss represented a bond, a contract, that the kiss itself was bound into the agreement, and represented a material part of the agreement does not surprise me. Nor, that it forms a bond of fealty, and to disrupt the ceremony required acceptance of a change in law.

Remember this is a time where at least for the nobility, to swear on oath you didn't do something was in some circumstances sufficient to be found not guilty. High status
people did embarrasingly public penance to get out of excommunication.
> If a rancher buys a plot of land from 34.42°N to 34.44°N to graze his cattle on, but in actual fact grazes his cattle all the way from 34.37°N to 34.47°N. Then a farmer buys a plot of land from 34.37°N to 34.398°N to grow wheat on. Does the rancher still get to herd his cattle down to 34.39°N to feed his cattle?

If you're actually curious about this specific scenario, in the US it's typically referred to as "adverse possession": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adverse_possession

> in the English common law tradition, courts have long ruled that when someone occupies a piece of property without permission and the property's owner does not exercise their right to recover their property for a significant period of time, not only is the original owner prevented from exercising their right to exclude, but an entirely new title to the property "springs up" in the adverse possessor. In effect, the adverse possessor becomes the property's new owner.[2][b] Over time, legislatures have created statutes of limitations that specify the length of time that owners have to recover possession of their property from adverse possessors. In the United States, for example, these time limits vary widely between individual states, ranging from as low as three years to as long as 40 years.

Also, in some states like California you have to pay taxes on the land for a certain period of time before you can claim ownership.

But yes, in your specific case it is possible to raise cattle on someone else's land for long enough to be able to legally claim that land as your own.
As well as smart pointers as others have mentioned, standard library containers (other than smart pointers) are another way to handle dynamic allocations in certain situations. The vector container is probably the best example here, it alone provides massive safety and usability benefits over using new or malloc directly!
> I bought mine just because Kindle doesn't have ePub support[0].

> [0]I know about Calibre.

Amazon actually provides their own tool to produce a Kindle document from an ePub. The assumption seems to be that you'll naturally produce Kindle ebooks by writing ePubs and converting them. But the tool doesn't work!

I wanted to have line numbers floating to the left of the main text. ePubs are just HTML, and it's easy to do this. It works fine in ePub readers. But while I tried multiple different ways of accomplishing this in an ePub, none of them made it through the conversion to Kindle.

It's a conversion of an existing bike to be electric, right? Or did you design and build the frame, too? Either way, nice work!

I think we're about to see a lot of innovation in scooter- and bike-adjacent mobility things - I don't mean the motors, but the frames etc... eg we might see more cargo e-tricycles?
1. Read other people's solutions,

2. Test those solutions,

3. Try to merge different solutions together to build new use cases,

4. Hands-on, Hands-on, Hands-on, there is a big gap between designing solutions and implementing them, small details you could be missed during designing can eat a lot of time and effort later, is better when you know the tools, technologies you want to implement at a lower level,

5. Optional (if your solution target is on-prem, try to build a home lab, if is for the cloud, try to get some free credits and get familiar with the environments).

I'm actually really interested in reading other people's thoughts.

How would you reconcile that with the fact that std::vector<T>::vector() is explicitly permitted to fail? [1] Do you construct your std::vector<T> objects with factories too?

Even 64-bit systems today don’t address 64-bits of physical memory. The Arm A78 (a very random example) uses 40 bits of physical address space. The 128 bits would really be for arithmetic and bus widths.

It's an airline. Of course they dgaf.
The radar altimeters aren't "using" (in the FCC sense) any of the 5G spectrum. This is an issue on the receive side. The FCC primarily regulates transmission, and the transmitters themselves are compliant. The FAA's TSO-C87 doesn't have any requirements for rx filtering either. So there's no legal grounds to fine anyone.

Seems like you could supply an aftermarket part to resume the wireless connectivity if that is all it is. If they removed the sensors etc... then not a lot you can do.

There’s probably an observability bias here. It could be that the app sizes would be 3x worse, if no one ever tried. You would never know, because you only see the app sizes after people have done the work.

Honestly $100M is not bad considering a single Boeing 737 costs the same amount.

But realistically you'd want winged drones, otherwise you'd need a large number of bases (power hookups, maintenance, etc.).
If I don't like traffic laws, let's say it really annoys me to drive slowly on residential streets, is it ok for me to go downtown and start smashing the windows of all stores on main street? I'm protesting so it's fine to break the law?

People implying that Canada doesn't have civil rights seem to mostly not be from here and they've no idea what they're talking about. Rights are balanced with responsibilities. I too would prefer not to have police, not to have laws, and just have everyone behave themselves. Unfortunately people have a tendency not to do that. That's why we can't have good things.
We have several external DP ports via USB-C. Web conferences... hm. Difficult to have some form of webcam with the headset on, but maybe there's a good way we'll discover down the line.
Back in the day, RedTube had incredibly high quality, low bandwidth video compared to YouTube (which at that stage had been owned by Google for a couple of years). They also had mouse-over previews on the seek bar years before anywhere else did.
Yes, however the injustice is that only one side appears to be doing the time for laws broken.
And maybe you would understand why that statement makes absolutely no sense if you read the headline of this thread.

It doesn't say "take control away from Youtube and Google", it says take back control of your videos. p2p is the ultimate destruction of control, that's the entire point of it. Saying that peertube gives you control is like saying that playing a slot machine gives you ROI.
I mean even if they went with EVs you could still say that. Who isn't financially motivated by obscenely wasteful government contracts?

I've currently got a B&N reader (essentially a Lenovo M10 HD) which I don't like all that much as an ereader - a bit heavy, battery life isn't good. I had a Kindle in the past and really didn't like that closed ecosystem. I'd like to get an epaper reader and was looking into Onyx Boox - but after reading this article that's off the table. What's left? Kobo?
"Creating an account per node is federation working as intended."

Ok well that isn't convenient, like at all. So it's basically a non starter for me.

Federation is absolutely not in vogue, and never has been vogue. Not even close to it. Where in the world did you get that idea?
I'm not sure it is remotely reasonable to choose a language for a project based on the verbosity of accessor signatures when being maximally pedantic.

C++ is indeed a mess but there is almost no alternative for existing enormous codebases than to keep making it better. The industry will slowly adopt memory safe system languages, but that's going to take ages to go beyond greenfields and absolutely security-critical systems.

I don't follow the argument that the false positive rate necessarily goes up if you notice some successful attempts to defeat your system and update your system to detect some attempts. Is this some statistical law you're referencing, or do you just mean that people tend to do naive updates to these detection systems to make them more sensitive (not necessarily "more sophisticated")?
I've never publicly said this before, but I had this experience with Donald Knuth - I emailed asking him for copyright permission for something on Wikipedia, and he gave it (public domain), but he was extremely nasty about it because I had to reply asking for clarification and apparently receiving an email was extremely disruptive to him.

I try not to talk to public figures, most of them are only nice when in the context of what they are trying to sell. The rare exceptions deserve the praise they get.

I don't even know why I'm writing this......... it was years ago.
Relatedly, I hope we ever get CPUs where pointers are bit addressed. I’m not suggesting they should allow byte level access at arbitrary alignments. I just mean that the smallest addressable unit is a bit.

That would allow us to finally declare lists of booleans without needing any specialization or losing the possibility of referencing elements.
I think what the OP meant was that the sentiment behind the quote doesn't reflect reality, not that Stroustrup didn't say it.

The planes have to fly and preventing them from doing so could cause financial harm/bankruptcy/transportation delays.
Tv stations do leak into adjacent bands. They contribute to the noise floor. It’s just that your real tv station broadcasts at 10,000W or whatever so it drowns out the other noise.

When it comes to radar, they cannot increase the TX power and have to detect a lower RX power. Also since they are analog any interference manifests itself as a direct error.

It’s like saying you should never be able to hear a whisper from your neighbours house. Obviously you can limit the amount of loud noises coming from your neighbours. You can’t silence them completely.
What's the power consumption of the Max Lumi? That's the crucial thing here!

I'd be satisfied with 80×24 characters (400 × 192 pixels without grayscale). It's not optimal, but it's adequate for reading, including hypertext browsing of Kiwix, and writing, including text and code. The Nokia 84×48 pixel screen is inadequate.
Cabinet level agency isn’t a thing. At the high level org chart you see the FCC but not the FAA. https://www.usgovernmentmanual.gov/ReadLibraryItem.ashx?SFN=...

This is because the FAA is under the United States Department of Transportation, while the FCC is an independent agency. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Department_of_Tr...

To see the difference goto: https://www.usa.gov/branches-of-government

Executive Department Sub-Agencies and Bureaus has FAA.
Independent Agencies has FCC. What is and isn’t an independent agency is complicated but the EPA, NASA, FDIC, Federal Reserve System are independent as are less critical agencies like Institute of Museum and Library Services, Peace Corps, and Railroad Retirement Board.
The reasonably famous people I have interacted with had public and private personas that were very distinct from each other. The public persona is what most people but the private persona can be very different. Being famous is basically an acting job. And to become famous you usually have to be very driven and can't always be nice.
> They used his name without permission for a codename, he asked them to stop

There's some additional context that makes me more sympathetic to Sagan here too. The "Carl Sagan"/"BHA" machine (Power Macintosh 7100) was introduced alongside two other machines whose codenames reference fraudulent/unproven science:

- The 6100 is "Piltdown Man" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_Macintosh_6100 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piltdown_Man

- The 8100 is "Cold Fusion" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_Macintosh_8100 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cold_fusion

Google actually went and scanned every book they could get their hands on - including the libraries of multiple universities - as part of the Google Books project. It could have been a digital library of Alexandria (I also seem to recall that universities had hoped to make their collections available to their students and faculty at the very least.) I believe the Library of Congress was also scanned, so we could in theory make any book in the collection available to anyone in the world over the internet in seconds at almost zero cost.

Copyright law seems to have locked most of the works in these amazing digital libraries up so that they are currently available publicly only via a search function that returns small excerpts (and even that would have been shut down had Google not prevailed in court against the Authors' Guild's claims of copyright infringement.)

At the very least, it would be nice to be able to read all of the scanned books in the Library of Congress that are out of copyright, out of print, and/or not being sold or rented by the author or publisher.
That is fine if you don't mind loosing out on some opportunities because a very religious recruiting coordinator 6 months out of college making 45K per year decides your profile is icky.

It's probably not the CTO, your direct manager, or even any of your peer that would be offended. Anyone in the long chain of people that are involved in your process from applicant to employee could cause a stink.

It's difficult to say one employees who might filter you out is indicative of the entire company culture. I know a lot of happy employees who absolutely hated their experience being onboarded because of 1 or 2 difficult people. But who gives a shit about how Michael from HR took 9 days to send an official offer letter if you're never going to have to interact with them again?
I'm concerned that there isn't nearly enough concern over the incredible environmental and energy waste that is core to crypto, and the already enormous wealth disparity on display within the Ponzi scheme.

It seems many adherents are starry eyed about some vague prospect of crypto somehow replacing the status quo, with little clarity over how that will be better for society - how it could replace the current structure with something that is less exploitative, less damaging, and more fair.

Quite frankly I get the impression that many are just salivating over the chance to be the new elite in a parallel system, new technology but in all other respects the same, and damn the consequences to the earth and humanity.
200 Mhz may be massive for communications (especially digital encoded signals), not necessarily for radar when you sensor is receiving weak reflected signals that very likely can have a frequency shift on reflection. So radar receivers need to receive on a wider frequency band than a receiver for communications.

Depending on the strength of 5G transmitters the higher order harmonics could be above the noise floor.
plus all the starting and stopping, you would think would benefit from regenerative breaking.
This rubbish theory only gets pushed so that Trump supporters can (continue to) believe that Trump was unfairly maligned: "lab leak" == "Trump couldn't have done anything anyway".
Your analogy is slightly oversimplified because it assumes a fully functional fence (probably two, with a road between them) between the wheat fields and the cattle. The cows might gaze longingly across the road at the wheat fields and the wheat farmer might smell some manure while harvesting, but the fence is fully functional. In real life, a 2200 lbs steer might not think much of a mere barbed wire fence or high-voltage tickle separating it from the wheat field...but that's stretching the analogy a bit too far into the weeds.

A better analogy needs to understand that the filter on both sides of the equipment is imperfect.

Replace the altimeter with, say, Mount Rushmore National Monument, and replace the wheat farmer with, say, a putrid landfill, sewage processing operation, or CAFO chicken farm. Neither the monument nor the viewing areas extend beyond the surveyed boundaries of the monument. But part of the appeal is that it's a pleasant, quiet, natural place in the middle of a national forest: abutting it with something smelly, noisy, or ugly might be legal but would harm it even though it doesn't extend past the property markers.

Personally, I do think they need to upgrade and phase out the altimeters to be more tolerant against interference. But they're not necessarily broken, just too slow to adapt past the scope and capabilities of the tech available in 1967.

I wouldn’t have been upset if they had introduced Podman alongside Docker as a choice, then replaced it when it was ready, but they didn’t. They pushed it hard as a replacement before it was anywhere close to production ready.

The way it was handled pretty much burned what remained of my trust in Redhat to the ground for me. Most of Redhats selling point is that it’s supposed to be stable and as dependable as a bag of hammers, except that’s a lie.
All equipment can emit outside the allocated frequencies, which is why you have band pass filters .

FAA is really the problem not Boeing, like any company they only did the bare minimum required to get certification .

Had FAA they mandated stronger specs initially or at-least forced Boeing to upgrade in the last 10 years this was being discussed and allocated, this won't be a problem. That will be expensive for Airlines(grounding loss of revenue) and Boeing (recall,certification and upgrade) nobody wants to foot the bill so FAA kept delaying .

Time and again we have seen FAA favor the industry even at the cost of lives (like with 737-MAX grounding) so this is not all that surprising from them
