I think the most insightful points were from those who actually mentioned that the capabilities the B52 requires are extremely different.

Mid air refueling, electronic warfare & military technology integration, speed in combat zone, integrity while under enemy fire.

They are are very different points than I ever imagined you would have to consider for a bomber.

The B52s gigantic wings make a ton more sense now. They're incredibly large so they produce vastly more lift/other specifications than required in case holes are shot in the bomber.

Lesson I've learnt today is listen more to the experts.

“Weyland” is because they wanted to use Leyland-Toyota but we’re sure they’d be sued, so they changed the first letter. I don’t how “Toyota” became “Yutani”.

Of course it should.

It's not just the protestors that have rights, the mourners do too.

Just like you've got no human right to stab people as much as you like, you can't cause other people distress at a funeral.

You're the one being incredibly unreasonable here.

Also, you can't freely protest a soldier's funerals in America, so you're also ridiculously hypocritical, sort your own country out first if you feel so strongly about this!

Hasn't the pandemic also taught us that we don't need to accept so many deaths by influenza? I mean, here in Denmark influenza almost vanished because we started using hand sanitizer and facemasks.
> People aged under 50 are generally not at particularly higher risk of becoming severely ill from covid-19. In addition, younger people aged under 50 are well protected against becoming severely ill from covid-19, as a very large number of them have already been vaccinated and have previously been infected with covid-19, and there is consequently good immunity among this part of the population."

Please say one in a million, because the fatality rate for Covid for young healthy folks with no comorbidities is extremely low.

Such a travesty that people were mandating vaccines with known adverse events for people at such a low, dare I say, negligible amount of risk.
Extinction actually has a specific meaning in behaviourism, it refers to extinguishing an unwanted behaviour (signalling at night) rather than wanting to extinguish the baby - it's a term used in behaviourism and can be applied to any unwanted behaviour, not just crying at night.

The connotations of using that term are rather unfortunate but there's a reason why that name is used.

> In a world with 400 Gb/s NICs, being IO bound takes some doing.

depends on what you call I/O. From the perspective of the caller, that’s the entire stack starting at a http library call or sql driver call. If those can’t use the hardware to their fullest (or can’t, the way you’re using them) your process becomes I/O bound from its perspective.

I’m not aware of anyone being vaccinated by force. Of course the unvaccinated were excluded from social contact in various ways, but that’s just society protecting itself from them. If they still wanted to take the risks, they could and many did. That includes one of my Aunts. She caught Covid a few months ago and had a tough time but fortunately survived.
Oh, good point. In my first screenshot, the iPhone shows up twice in the leftmost list - the first with your apps and the second with photos from camera roll.

I wouldn't use Nautilus to import photos, though - I'd use something like digiKam (1 - showing my connected iPhone).

The first time you connect your iPhone, it'll ask if you want to 'Trust this computer'. After trusting, you need to run 'idevicepair pair' (2) in the terminal to pair. Then your iPhone (or iPad) will show up in Nautilus.

One use case: Infuse is my iOS video player, and copying movies or serials over is as simple as connecting the iPad or iPhone and copying to Infuse's storage. It copies at 20-30 MBs/sec, which is plenty fast.

>most of the other popular cryptocurrencies.

Untrue. Check e.g. top 10, 20 or 50 on Coinmarketcap. Most are PoS. Further, with Ethereum being PoS the mining behind everything except Bitcoin is a rounding error.

>And Ethereum's price can still fluctuate wildly on any given day, making it unsuitable for most real-world transactions.

You might want to look into stablecoins or more generally into Ethereum if you think using it for daily transactions is the main usecase.
Log out, clear all cookies, get a new IP address (usually easy as unplugging your modem for an hour or so), and make new accounts. Better yet, don't make new accounts, and use platforms that don't require it -- or at least platforms whose accounts don't entail personalized advertising.

Or, you know, look into individual platforms data and privacy options. Google, for instance, allows you access to some settings via https://myaccount.google.com/data-and-privacy; presumably particularly in a post-GDPR world, most of the big platforms have something similar.

All depends how thorough you want to be. Reset a few advertising models, or basically join witsec.

I have already explained why it is common. Your dismissal of those explanations is neither here nor there, frankly. Most of these are example libraries done in the languages they know, not production quality systems for you to integrate. It's basically that simple.

Buying Eth: No investment in a common enterprise, no expectation of profit nor is that non-profit derived from others. Not a security.

Staking Eth: Investment in common enterprise, expectation of profit and profit derived from others. Looks and quacks like a security.

Buying and holding Eth without staking it shouldn't be considered a security, while staking said Eth should be considered a security. At least if we're still following the "Howey Test".

> My example of this is the Colors.jl package. Images, rather than being 3D arrays of floats/ints, instead become 2D arrays of RGB/HSV. But you can't do any arithmetic on RGB/HSV values, you need ColorVectorSpace.jl for that. I'm sure it makes sense, but I can't help but feel as if sense is taking precedence over the programmer's experience in many of these packages.

If you just used Images.jl, it would load both Colors.jl and ColorVectorSpace.jl.

Let's say you obtained one of the matrices of RGB values, but you wanted a 3D array of numbers. `channelview` will provide you with a no-copy representation of the image as exactly that.

```
julia> using Images, TestImages

julia> img = testimage("barbara_color.png");

julia> typeof(img)
Matrix{RGB{N0f8}} (alias for Array{RGB{Normed{UInt8, 8}}, 2})

julia> channelview(img) |> ndims
3
```

While it took getting used to, have an image processing framework that explicitly has a concept of color instead of generically mapping everything into an array is actually quite useful. Having a 2D array representing a 2D image is conceptually quite nice.

Also you can do arithmetic on RGB or HSV types directly.

```
julia> (RGB(1,0,0) + RGB(0,1,0))/2
RGB{Float32}(0.5f0,0.5f0,0.0f0)
```

I could be wrong but disagreeing with an article isn't really a reason to flag the submission.

That analogy doesn't hold up, getting access to a network is usually something done remotely - not by forced entry, with the amount of things running on a network it's only a matter of time until something gets owned, phones home and next thing you know you have someone with a shell on your network.

Electron has _serious_ security problems and as it's footprint grows so does the risk profile.

> providing excellent service in the F&B business works against the structure of the industry.

I tried to look at the preceeding article mentioned to go deeper on this but it is paywalled. I can't say for sure but this article has wiffs of the quasi-mysticism that surrounds F&B worship of successful professional F&B proprietors. And I'm getting a touch of the worst brand yet which is mixing F&B business metaphorically with startup brain.

So for example, almost all of these articles will talk about how some "culture" is "different". They'll enumerate all the quirky training processes that "bond" the teams together.

But in the end there are a few realities. Most people that have very professional service in F&B pay them more and give them better benefits. They can afford this because they work in niches of F&B service that allow for higher margins. Unless you can move your operations into something higher margin, you can't afford these pay and benefits. And if you do, someone else will fill your low margin hole and end up asking themselves the same questions. Namely, why do my employees hate me? I exploit them. Why do I exploit them? The margins demand it.

The other and much more insidious way that F&B luminaries provide superior service is by exploiting professionalized workers' egos. Essentially, working in a fancy restaurant is very clouty. A lot of people end up working in cutting edge or high end F&B while still earning very marginally improved wages because they believe in the place they work. In my opinion this is not good. This is asking people to start making real personal sacrifices for something they will never actually own, something that will give them nothing the day it slides from under their feet.

The vast majority of F&B is so low margin that I actually think the only conceivable way to pay people a livable wage, outside of high margin niches, is to be unrpofitble. Essentially, you have to distribute the profits to the workers. And the problem here becomes that scale is often the only way to secure yourself in the industry, yet getting capital invested into your explicitly profitless venture is unlikely.

I really wish I could read the other article because maybe I'm preaching to the choir but in the end I'd say, be very cautious about glorify anyone in the F&B business.
Yes, it's really cool to see. I imagine it's really scary to experience in a less dramatic situation, i.e. when you're not crashing but still having the bag inflate while in the driver's seat (hit when standing still etc).

This article [1] has good technical details about construction and so on, two facts: the bag moves at around 200 mpg (322 km/h) when inflating, and it's all done in 1/25:th of a second, i.e. 40 ms.

Something similar to this worm (1) that infects ants and makes them climb to the top of blades of grass, where they are more likely be eaten by an ungulate, thus allowing the parasite to move to the next stage of its reproductive cycle.

That wasn't the point. The point was that you don't go from walking the baby to sleep to putting the baby down horizontally. You sit down for 5-8 minutes first, during which time the baby transitions into a deeper sleep that won't be disturbed by being laid down.

If you go from walking to putting the baby down horizontally, the baby will often be awakened by the sensation of falling backwards, and wake up.

I'm not totally convinced tracking/data mining is the key distinction here. I'm going to assume your dozen users are friends/family and 'well behaved'. Global cloud services do not have that luxury. They have to deal with wide ranging usage, sophisticated attacks, bots etc that you simply don't have to deal with.

In short, they have a vast set of requirements you don't have, each one of which adds complexity.

Dont get me wrong, I definitely agree with your message. However I think we need to be clear that a raspberry pi running some services is not the equivalent of cloud services without 'advertising, tracking etc'
