(All of the following is for small planes. Big guys may differ.)

Yes, there's a drain at every low point in the fuel system. Before each flight, you sample from each drain, discard any water (and get concerned if there's more than a drop or two), confirm that the fuel is the color you expect (different types and grades of fuels are dyed differently), and then (especially if you're in California) return the sampled fuel into the tank, at which point you either visually check the fuel level or, if it's not at an an easily recognizable fill level (many planes have both "full" and "at the tabs", fuel up to a metal protrusion that marks a known quantity), "stick" it with a calibrated stick that gives you a pretty good estimate.

In cruise, you're at a known power level, and you know your fuel burn at that power level pretty accurately (± 5%, say). In addition, many fuel systems have a fuel flow meter that is accurate enough to integrate to get fuel burn that way, with comparable accuracy. And of course you have the fuel senders in the tank itself which feed one fuel gauge per tank.
I think they've counted on the Ukrainian government (especially Zelensky and his closest circle) to give up the fighting and surrender early in the operation. Or have Ukrainian army overthrow him, Putin already suggested they don't need to take commands from this "narc" and "nazi" (btw Zelensky is jewish). It's either their intelligence is that bad (which I don't believe) or Putin just didn't listen, having some delusional picture of the current political and cultural state of Ukraine in his head.
Both sentences are perfectly fine, they have different meanings. I don't see why the second is inherently better at all. It has a different meaning, so if you wanted to characterise Paul with the first sentence but you used the second by accident you'd literally just not be conveying what you wanted.
Makes me think of WOLK, a popular kernel patchset back in the early 2000s. It didn't feel like a real kernel release until the WOLK patch was ready.
Products aren't priced based on value, but on the maximum a customer will pay. A free market identifies the value of a product through competition between different sellers of the product.

Tinder is entitled to charge as much as they want to whoever they want as long as they're not discriminating against a protected class.

The free market resolution requires competition, though. There might be a reasonable case to be made that products that don't have comparable competition can't be priced in a way that exploits different customers by charging more for receiving the same service or good?

I don't think there's anything comparable to tinder that found be considered legitimate competition- match.com, Madison, adult friend finder, etc are operating in very different markets with very different tools and expectations.
Buffett is famous for his fast-food heavy diet. Here's one article that quotes Bill Gates:

"Warren Buffett's close friend, billionaire and Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates, says Buffett mostly subsists on a diet of hamburgers, ice cream, and Coke. Celebrating 25 years of their friendship in 2016, Gates wrote in his blog, Gates Notes, "One thing that was surprising to learn about Warren is that he has basically stuck to eating what he liked when he was six years old." He recalled a time when Buffett stayed at his and his wife Melinda Gates' house, and opened a package of Oreo cookies for breakfast."

Anyway, I think the medical establishment is very much aware that genes matter more than diet, exercise, or anything else they can do. I had one extremely socially awkward PCP who, upon intake, was like "Asian? That's good, it means you'll live longer. Good genes." The problem is that such comments are both off-putting, potentially illegal, and completely unhelpful, because patients can't control their genes but can control their diet and exercise. There are a lot of statements that are true but useless, and discourse tends to select against them.
>In the US, at least, you actually need to to get pre-approval for your prices and how you arrive at that price, and that information becomes public record.

But some factors get a free pass whereas others don't. eg. age/sex is allowed, but race/income/education isn't (although zip codes approximate some of those, to an extent).
Wasn’t aware— although I’m not sure how that relates to the video and analysis
This is really apparent in their “Top Picks” feature. They give you a list of people the algorithm thinks you will like, but you’re only allowed to check out one of them in free mode. Even though apparently these people are a great match for you they do not show up in the course of regular swiping. Which makes it obvious that Tinder is keeping a holdout set of people it thinks you are compatible with and never shows them to you. Using that app is akin to using a slot machine, and I suspect the algorithms they use for doling out rewards are very similar.
The big problem of software filled TLBs is that taking an interrupt serializes the pipeline and is an inherently single-threaded operation. Interrupts themselves are very heavy weight on high performance cores too. You could handwave that way somewhat, but not the serial nature of it. Software filled just doesn't cut it for high performance cores.

If an ISA defined a very small contained set of operations for TLB miss to program page table walking / TLB refill state machines that allowed the OS to define that behavior without taking an architectural interrupt that would be very cool. I suspect the hardware cost and complexity is not considered worthwhile though.
I'm not an expert at that particular area, but my anecdotal impression was that high-end matchmaking services (say 50-100k to find a life partner) were fairly underwhelming. Or are you talking about the whole sugar dating world here?
Make a relatively simple application, say an async video chat app. Build it with 'micro'services for everything (e.g. thumbnail generator, contacts, groups, sending, receiving, email/sms notifications). Deploy all of them in containers with redundancy and use a distributed datastore in VMs (to simulate separate machines, run some of them in different timezones).

Alternatively, try running Elasticsearch to index something.

What technology are we missing to be able to ship heat from warm houses to cool houses?
Although not suited to an airlift of heavy items, a swarm of drones would be super difficult to defend against in an urban environment. Have them drop thermite or pipebombs or just draw fire to find enemy positions, or distract them during an assault.
Military force is not a binary. Just as Russia had a choice of going to the de facto borders of LDNR, to their claimed borders, or for Ukraine as a whole - and did the latter. But for effective response, sticking to pre-war borders would suffice - and would not be enough to trigger a nuclear response from Russia.

What you call "diplomacy" seems to be a double-speak for appeasement. Your claim, in essence, is that with nukes in the picture, appeasement is the only option left. To that my question is: where do you plan to stop? If the West continues to back down in the face of direct military confrontation, because it might escalate into nuclear, but Russia doesn't harbor the same sentiments, it will take a while before it might cross your personal red line. But by that time, you might find that others aren't willing to fight for you, just as you weren't willing to fight for them.

Oh, and I'm Russian.
Exactly. Like all things Apple, I have no problem with them choosing money over something else. ( May be I do but it is up to them to decide )

I have problem with them constantly lying ( or spinning ) all the the glass they use are from US Corning.
Correct, but why to deal with this at all considering the % of all BTC TXs compared to fiat.
One can hope that history repeats. Tyrants and strongmen aren't known for dying peacefully in bed. Then again, a couple hundred billion dollars can buy a lot of bodyguards, tasters, and body doubles.
jorbs is great. His low-key sarcastic style hits just right.

Insurance price varies according to how likely you are to use their services, and how expensive these services are likely to be. A 95-year-old with high blood pressure and a history of cancer is potentially more expensive than a healthy 25-year-old. That's entirely different from how an app like Tinder operates.
There were plenty of ethnic Russians in Groznyy in 1999 - didn't stop the fuel-air bombs.
Rotation is not part of Russian strategy/approach. Bloodbath is. Common Russian expression is "woman will birth more". Also it looks like there were expectation that after initial cruise missiles strikes it will be walk in a park like in Crimea circa 2014. Mixed with delusions about state of Ukrainian military and general mood of population (big chunk of Russians sure that neo-nazi minority rule over rest of population for militia and population wants to be freed)
Our utility provides 1:1 metering, so no storage is necessary (and the utility is primarily gas turbine supplied; every clean kWh we provide is some natural gas not burned). We’re self sufficient in the sense that we produce more power than we use. If net metering were to change to be less advantageous, the system was designed to accept one or more Tesla Powerwalls eventually; self consumption would then be prioritized (and I’d shift loads to daylight hours if the batteries were topped up) and drawing from the utility a last resort. Very common configuration in places like Australia, where distributed solar penetration is high and there is an abundance of renewables during daylight hours (causing the spot price of power to go negative much if the day).

In the meantime, it behooves myself and others for battery storage to be installed in places where the grid is far dirtier (remote communities, islands) where storage avoids burning diesel or bunker fuel (versus cleaner but not zero carbon natural gas).

(your comment history looks like you’re pro nuclear/anti renewables, so while I hope my comment was informative, I’m not interested in arguing the merits of net metering, rooftop solar, or nuclear vs renewables).
Don't Write a Programming Language
> doesn’t the novelty and enjoyment wear off long before you’d hit ascension 20?

I don't think it's a problem at all that you didn't enjoy it after A2. Some folks do (like Jorbs or your comment's parent) and some don't.

If your line of questioning was more along the lines of why it didn't wear off, I can give my own anecdote. I found that the increase of difficulty makes the game more interesting to think about because you have to be much more methodical in how you craft your deck and play it. There are a lot of variables to manage and account for too.
Making new accounts isn't trivial. You can add friction from suspicious attempts like requiring a phone number or making them wait some time. Some determined attackers might slip through but at the end of the day all you are losing is some bandwidth.
Sounds like it would be a good idea to get the CI process to check for usage of debugging functions. I'm sure it would be possible to write a phpstan rule to forbid var_dump. Maybe another solution would be to make them noops on production.
That sounds like you have the wrong blanket.

What’s this “unfair” crap? We’re talking about dating and mating. Apart from war there may be no human activity in which fairness applies less. Price discrimination in dating apps is as problematic as in airline tickets. Twenty year old men moan about actually having to try and ask people out if they want a date. Thirty five year old women complain that they can’t find someone who loves them for their career accomplishments or how superficial men their age are, dating women 10 years hone younger. Dating sucks unless you’re a young woman looking for casual sex or an attractive, solvent (young) man who wants to get married.
How are the people going to starve in Russia? They supply the world with wheat. They have an excess of food, energy, manpower and natural resources.

The businessmen don't need to sell to you. They can engage their people producing armaments and output for the Russian war machine instead.

The person who loses out then is you. Nobody else. You haven't got your Russian gas, which means you don't have fertiliser or warmth and you either starve or go cold.

The more land area you have, the more likely you are to be able to be self sufficient.
Thanks for the feedback, and glad to hear it's working well overall!

There's definitely been some prior requests for some additional functionality around `createEntityAdapter`. We tried to keep the original implementation fairly scoped. (The current code is actually a port of the `@ngrx/entity` package.) There were a couple suggestions around having the ability to specify additional sorting indices of some kind. I briefly tried to play with implementing that idea [0], but wasn't sure it was the right direction and haven't gotten back to it. We don't do anything about logic for creating new items or auto-generating IDs atm. But, we are definitely interested in any specific suggestions for API improvements or additional use cases that it would be good to cover.

If this "page state" is mostly coming from the server and is primarily being used as cached data, it might actually be a good candidate for our RTK Query data fetching and caching API [1] [2]. If on the other hand you need those for a lot of other calculations in the slices, then RTKQ probably isn't the right choice.

`createAsyncThunk` specifically implements the standard "dispatch actions based on an async request lifecycle" pattern that's always been taught for Redux usage [3]. That way, you only have to provide a "payload creator" function that makes the async request and returns the data, and it dispatches the actions for you. Typically you then dispatch the thunk itself from a component, like `dispatch(fetchMyData())`.

FWIW I and the other Redux maintainers generally hang out in the `#redux` channel in the Reactiflux Discord ( https://www.reactiflux.com ), and we're always happy to chat and answer questions. Please drop by when you get a chance - I'd love to discuss some of these topics in more detail!

If you think about it, it's kind of weird for a product to have a single price. Everyone who would pay more is paying less.[1] It's much more profitable to just barely meet demand for every one while keeping the lower bound at the cost of production. You're right to point out that insurance operates with price discrimination. Student discounts and senior discounts are another common example. There are many others.[2] Tinder has market power in the sense that they sell access to a unique user base. Sure, their competitors offer access too, but none are identical, and that difference implies an amount of exclusivity.

> Users don't want to enroll devices they want to log in with face/touch ID. The webauthn UX is broken and needs to be revamped so that users can choose a not technically perfect but still effective and better than passwords security posture where they reuse a soft webauthn key across devices.

I'm not sure I understand the problem here. WebAuthn is entirely agnostic about the physical factor: it can be a hardware key, a software implementation, TouchID/FaceID, or anything else. You can already use TouchID and FaceID on sites that use WebAuthn, and the UX is perfectly fine. You still have to enroll the device, but that's no different from the Face/TouchID UX in any other authentication context.
Tinder is so chock-full of dark patterns and in-your-face modals that I'm not surprised, at all.
Absolutely. But then again, how many Pavlov's houses do you get during a war? It's known by name precisely because it was such an extreme case.
Russia has all the raw materials in the world.

The people who want rubles are those who have to pay taxes in rubles, which Putin imposes on the promise of a trip to the gulag if you don't pay them.

Just because something is generally priced in dollars, doesn't mean that it is paid for in dollars. Contracts to supply anything can be in any denomination.

In all international transactions people pay in the currency they have and receive the currency they require. Everything else is just protocol layers.
Interesting thought.

I wouldn't buy a car without seat and steering wheel heating anymore. Much more efficient than heating the air (even it the "room" is relatively tiny in a car).

I guess the same principle (concentrate energy on a small target to get better results) is at play with Beefers and AirFyers.
I have also been working on a programming language, but longer than the author of this piece (since 2011), and the author is correct.

Designing a language consumes you; you never see programming the same way again. Whenever I write C (I'm implementing the interpreter in C), I get annoyed because I have to work around C's warts to do what I want, and that is only happening because I think in my language.

And the design never stops. As mentioned, I've been designing mine since 2011, and I'm only now writing an interpreter after two failed attempts to bootstrap a compiler.

So the author is correct: don't write a programming language unless you are prepared to be marked and scarred for life.
He's played close to 10000 hours, and has an obvious talent for games. I know a lot of StS players, and it typically takes people a few hundred hours to be ready for Ascension 20 kills (hardest difficulty). None of the players I know have even half the win-rate of someone like Jorbs. It's taken me over 300 hours to get to two characters on Ascension 19 and one on Ascension 17. I'm genuinely mediocre, but it's just a tough game.
They did a bit better than the index - the S&P 500 went up about 21% in 2021, Berkshire Hathaway went up 37%. 37% is a very respectable one-year return for any stock, particularly one that invests conservatively. Also not true that they simply wrap Apple, which went up 32% in 2021. They also beat Tesla, which went up 18%.
I don’t think the expectation is that Ukraine won’t eventually fall and become occupied (I think that is likely). However a spirited resistance that is outside of the Russian expectation seems to me could be a deterrent to Putin taking this imperialism beyond Ukraine and test NATOs resolve in the Baltics. That’s a good thing. Stopping the imperialism with Ukraine I think may also deter other possible bad actors from taking advantage of western and NATO chaos to say lob misses into South Korea and Japan…and other make incursions into Taiwan.
The design intent for Solarized is to minimize contrast, so this may lie somewhere between “you’re holding it wrong” territory, and aggressive cargo-culting advertising making this theme show up everywhere as an implied default good option. It is a nice set of color choices, but is not really appropriate for many situations where it gets used.
Enterprise B2B sales where contracted prices are never disclosed immediately springs to mind. It's the pinnacle of price discrimination.
I’m from Bangladesh. While I believe our independence war was absolutely a good thing, it absolutely wasn’t the west’s business. “Everybody who wants one gets their own country” isn’t a workable approach.

(Of course the US did intervene in the Bangladesh-Pakistan war, on the wrong side: https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/us-forces-had-orde.... But even if it had supported Bangladesh, at the end of the day it wasn’t any of its business or risking the life of American soldiers.)

I'd be interested in learning more about the state of BASIC on the Cybiko. There are some mentions online of "CyBasic" and "CyBasic Lite", but I'm having trouble tracking down any details, like a language manual or example programs.

Do you mean water or air temps? I would hate a shower in 45F water, but a shower in hot water in 45F temps would be fine.
Anecdotal, but I noticed a lot better browser performance when switching to no I/O scheduler, "none". I also noticed that Linux wasn't trying to use most of my RAM for buff/cache.

Price discrimination[1] relies on market power. This is a completely uncontroversial thing. Any discussion on price discrimination will tie back to market power.

1. Not a judgement here. This is a technical term from microeconomics.
What's stopping an idiot from doing so?
Curious, assuming it has panels, how are they attached together? Sewn, or glued / double sided taped? Or both? Or all one sheet with no seams?
you can use C to create any system you want including your preferred overflow, signedness, etc. Yes, it's that powerful. Then transpile to what you've created... which would still be transpiling to C. C lives outside the box, try to think that way.
Insurance is often highly regulated as to what they can do price discrimination on, oftentimes limited to things which directly impacts the cost of that insurance, like age (side note, I don't believe race is legally part of that). Tinder, on the other hand, presumably doesn't have any differing costs per customer and has no generally agreed-upon guidelines as to what kind of discrimination is okay.
> If France had had that attitude in the past the United States would likely not even exist.

And it probably would have been better that way! The British would have ended slavery earlier, and we would have developed like Canada and Australia.

Nobody knows what’s the “right thing” when it comes to the development and history of nations. The United States has good intentions, but it’s foreign policy is tremendously destructive because Americans have a childlike understanding of how the world works.
