I'm not sure the article captures the danger of forward risk well given the argument that Boeing and cost management practices have hijacked the approval process and design strategy, respectively, and the current inventory includes planes recent models with poor track records.

In the next few years I think we will see if process failure has been a momentary blip or if this article is viewed as having fallen into the same trap as judging 1960 aviation on averages of entire period of flight instead of on rate of improvement.

Put a different way, I wont be estimating the safety of the 787 on the safety of a 737-MAX because most of the systems of the MAX were designed in an earlier Boeing/FAA system that bears little resemblance to the modern Boeing process, yet I am still comfortable flying in a 737-MAX.
Well that answers my question "Would it be worth renting out my unused 1080?"...

You can pick and choose. As different airlines have different
track records for maintenance quality that is also likely
to be as important, or more important.

Just two examples:

Boeing 737 (all models) -> Rate -> 0.24

Airbus A318/A319/A320/A321 -> Rate -> 0.09

When you reach a certain amount of power your horizon grow accordingly. Neoliberals do not sell "anything" anymore, those were the classic liberals, those who create two world war and 30+ years wars in '800. Their successors have evolved. They change schools, to form puppets instead of citizens, they change the society at a slow peace to lay the foundation of a new dictatorship, they'll became "the platform" of the society, the sole who detain knowledge, the sole who have factories etc.

Voting these days is just a show, starting from the Condorcet paradox we are now at a point that thanks to media alignment and propaganda all visible candidates are equally puppet formally different but effectively maneuvered by the same master.

For a certain amount of time people was kept quiet with high growth, so people see improvements, is entertained and so "happy". When scarcity arrive such system break, a war is needed, catastrophes are needed, something big enough to justify the new messy state of things. But pushing to war and action an aging population grown to be just spectators from the sofa is difficult. So there is a need of "new citizens", young and obedient, that's the purpose of social score, of smart cities.

If anything like this program were implemented, 99% of 18-year-olds wouldn't be affected by it. There are 18-year-olds that want to enjoy youth and travel and there are others that are driven to achieve things. I don't see why is it bad to boost some of the latter ones.

Ok well since this was posted later than the other one I guess this one should be flagged.
Do they even care about the drivers though?

I bought their m.2 dual tpu and the drivers are in a really bad state

They got in the linux kernel, staging, then basically no work done. They continued the development off-tree, going out of sync with what the kernel had. Only 4.19 supported if I remember correctly.

Finally removed from the kernel in...5.13?

This is true, but still - people want to print documents. They don't want to run Linux (or Windows). If they can't print documents, that's a problem.

The solution was Google Cloud Print, IMO. That was a great idea. Who cares what you run, as long as it can connect to the internet you can print. I don't know how in-depth it got with the various crazy menu systems

> and the rest of the industry would be well advised to take notice and copy what they see

I don't agree.

There is a good reason that aerospace industry writes robust code - in invests time (money) to avoid disasters that could cause, among other things, loss of human life.

On the other hand if for example some webform validation fails because the code was written as fast (as cheap) as possible, who cares really.

That is just a tradeoff, in aerospace industry you spend more to lower the risk, somewhere else you don't.

Not the online or browser-based signing, no, but LuckyPatcher lets you patch APKs locally (I think their specific implementation requires root, but that wouldn't be necessary if APKs were downloaded in-app). I was actually really surprised when I first found Vanced that it wasn't using something like LP and instead distributing pre-modded APKs.
Used to own an Intel. Recently purchased an M1 Pro, and it’s astounding how quiet it is.

I’ve only heard the fans once while using Handbrake.
Agreed. I think a smarter approach would've been to release the patches and other changes separately, and had the official YT app be patched locally. This, however, could probably not work on non-root devices.

That is highly speculative at this point, this airline has a very good safety record.

This very much seems like you're confusing stochastic or systemic uncertainty in a domain (which might be the same thing, information-theoretically) with uncertainty due to the representations or models of a field.

There's limits to the predictability of all phenomena. That doesn't mean there isn't some predictability, or that it's not worth achieving those limits.

I can't help sharing one of my favourite haggling anecdotes here. I was in a jewellery market in Mexico City, waiting for a friend to return from the toilets, so I spent some time looking over the goods of a stall and looking at one silver bracelet. The stall keeper noticed and told me it was (not the actual prices) 500 pesos. I tell him I'm not really interested. He says 250, I tell him I'm still not interested. 150, still not interested. He says he needs to "check with his boss" and walks off around the corner (there may or may not have been a boss) and comes back with 100 pesos. At this point I figure, well it'll make a nice present for someone and accept...

I don't think he lost out as I legitimately had no interest in buying before he haggled himself down that low, but it was an interesting lesson in how far haggling can go in some circumstances...
He sympathised with the anarchists, and in retrospect wished he'd joined them, but the group he joined -- POUM -- were Marxist rather than anarchist, though not Marxist-Leninist/Stalinist (what most people would probably mean by Communist). The group is sometimes described as Trotskyite, but I believe it had already broken with Trotsky by the time Orwell joined.

But its members were indeed the target of a purge by the Stalinists and their allies in the Republican government.

So Orwell was one of the few authors, possibly the only author, to have been shot by Fascists and nearly shot by Stalinists, which probably explains in part the burning distaste for both ideologies evident in 1984.
Well "No." might be a complete sentence and enough to express unwillingness to proceed with the demand. But to my mind, as others already noticed here, it is not the most productive way to deal with refusal, especially if quality of relationship is taken in consideration.

There are already plenty of great resources to answer negatively to the demand without damaging the relationship or the image that will be forged out of the way you behave, so just go and search for "how to say no"[1]

[1] https://duckduckgo.com/?t=ffab&q=how+to+say+no&ia=web for the lazy, and here are the first result as I searched it:
- https://www.indeed.com/career-advice/career-development/how-...
- https://www.wikihow.com/Say-No
- https://www.scienceofpeople.com/how-to-say-no/
- https://www.grammarly.com/blog/saying-no/

From my readings on this topic, the main take away things I liked were formulations that
- use positive assertive sentences: focus on what this refusal allow you to do, propose alternatives
- make it clear why you will focus on something else: it can also gives clues on whether it’s likely a permanent case or a local agenda/load conflict
- use the right level of kind firmness

Here is an example to illustrate what I mean:
"Thanks for your invitation at this restaurant, saying 'yes' would have delighted me, unfortunately I already have an other dinner planned at this date. Also I adopted a vegan regime, so what about going to Vegood the next Friday?"

First, be kind, the person asking you is making some kind of recognition of your existence and possibly bet on your skill set. Secondly, making a word like "yes" appears in the sentence make the refusal psychologically easier to perceive as some positive response. Then there is first an exposition of a some incidental impossibility: a typical conflict of agenda. But there is also this more perennial constraints about what you can it (whether you chose the regime for ethical reasons or health imperative necessities). Finally you propose an alternative.

Of course the alternative could also be some delegation on someone else than your future self: "My skill level on this technology would prevent me from achieving the task in due time. I think Ada would be way more qualified than me for this mission, or if she’s too busy, maybe ask Zeno: if he can’t help you directly, he is well connected with all experts in this domain."

Their investigation clearly shows that it’s a truncated SHA256 hash of the entire message text + a timestamp. I’m very sure that your method does NOT work.

How are you assuming a known dictionary and a known word count? And for the other examples, you’re somehow assuming a fully precalculated rainbow table of all possible such PII. Seriously…?

Someone has to write those libraries you're using, and they need to test it. Maybe you're satisfied with having a job consisting of gluing libraries together, but not everyone is like that and there is no need for being patronizing towards them.
Good call, I didn't think of that. I believe that the non-root approach for LuckyPatcher is to create a separate, (limited) modified APK file rather than modifying an existing, installed app

Don’t negotiate on price, you have no leverage.

Instead negotiate on value. If you’re going to pay such a higher price, find out what else you can get that is valuable to you but of little value to them. For instance instead of 40% off on rooms, I’ve gotten free upgrades to better rooms, with late 3pm checkouts.
I tried the "just pay the price they're asking for their bobble, it's inconsequential to me anyway" at a little market in Botswana. It caused a big fight with a few vendors because they were sure the one I randomly chose had some scheme going to get me to just give them money since I didn't haggle. After that disaster, it became clear that most of those tourist markets expect you to haggle.
Every proof or point, including the linked articles are at the least underwhelming and at most controversial.

They are certainly not "rules". Author calls them "tips" before, which is more apt. But as the "tips/rules" go, they lack all nuance and background.

Every now and then I'll be shopping and the security device by the door will beep as I'm walking out, even though I haven't stolen anything. I always just assume there's been a mistake, e.g. the cashier forgot to deactivate my security tag, and walk straight on out; I'm not going to waste my time being searched when I know I haven't done anything wrong.

This doesn't happen very often but as far as I can remember I've never been challenged when I do it.

But what I find really interesting is: based on what I've written above, isn't it trivially easy to guess my skin color?

Because the same policy causes both. DA's refusing to prosecute encourages shoplifting and discourages reporting.

Herb Cohen - You Can Negotiate Anything (1980) thaught me this. Got that book from a street salesman in China. One of the few English paperbacks he had. It was old and great.

Few memories that seem relevant:

- The advice is to negotiate by building a relationship or mutual understanding. The opposite party should feel good about granting you the sales and not begrudge your style or demands. He had chapters about how to socialize what is essentially a trade. Chat them up, show them why you would like the product, etc. Some of that feels old fashioned.

- You can't one-time negatiate something through display of power. That's a negotiation style for repeat negotiations where you balance your display of power with a loss of future bargaining power.

- Can't negotiate when the other party has no skin in the game. Be it the owner of the store, or someone selling on a concept of commission: they can oversee the financial consequences of your willingness to strike a deal. Can't negotiate with hourly wagers in large firms.. Unless (relationship) they like you and are allowed to decide on prices.

I think it may have to do with the fact that you're not directly responsible for the crash yourself. In a car, when you're driving it and have a crash, at least you had some control over it. At least that's how I feel about it, when sitting on a piece of metal flying through the sky, navigated by some person you've never met.

Similarly, if we ever have self-driving cars, people will probably be very harsh on those systems, even if they're 1000x safer.

“No soup for you. Come back, one year.”
There is some confusion here. There is no moral obligation of the sort that you are claiming .

Speak to a tour guide in these countries and he will tell you that many tourists from western countries that don’t have a culture of bargaining vastly overpay for many things that are marked up precisely because the locals know tourists don’t know any better. Even if they did, they would still make a profit.

People in the “global south” aren’t stupid. They are much better at playing the bargaining game than westerners. You are no match for their hustling. They will tell you when they cannot go any lower and will not sell for less than that amount. Even that amount is bound to make them a nice profit. It’s not like you’re fleecing them or coercing them into loss. They will not sell below what they can afford. Why would they?

If you want to be generous, be generous, but even generosity can be misguided and foolish, even condescending in its presuppositions (westerners often have patronizing views of the “third world”). Charity has its place. (Look at the effects of mitumba in Africa or free rice in Haiti for example of misplaced charity.) Ethically speaking, justice does not bind us to refrain from bargaining because there is nothing unjust about it.
