Are you sure you are not recollecting the altitudes or the cause of the dive incorrectly? Depressurisation at ~10 000 feet does not really grant an emergency dive; in fact emergency dives for depressurisation usually end somewhere slightly below 10 000 ft, which is very much in the breathable zone. Furthermore, pressurised aircraft usually have an equivalent pressure (cabin altitude) of ~6-8 000 ft, which is not too far away.

I do not now re: FAA, but EASA regulations permit flight in unpressurised aircraft between 10 to 13 000 ft without onboard oxygen for 30 minutes. Onboard oxygen is required beyond 30 minutes if > 10 000 ft and < 13 000 ft or immediately if > 13 000 ft.

My "bad propaganda" does not rely on the intent of any of the people who did this cancellations. All it relies on is the fact that the shut down of nuclear ensured a reliance on coal that has killed and will kill a huge number of people.

> Which means also we can expect a lot more false positives.

Perhaps we can, but clearly we can expect to find actual UAVs corresponding to these radar signals.

If these UAVs that have been shot down were domestic research balloons or some other aircraft exempt from FAA regulation, then we can expect a party to come forward and publicly acknowledge ownership/control of the UAV.

However, based on the descriptions of the object over Alaska it seems very likely there are indeed unmanned drones being operated by foreign governments and not domestic weather/research balloons or FAA compliant unregistered domestic aircraft.
So we can shoot down 1m balloons before we have to worry about it?

That's for the Iranians to decide.

Some people would rather live under an oppressive regime rather than die during its death throes. I won't judge them. It's not for me to decide, not if it's not my country.

Did we ever find out whether Iraqis preferred living under Saddam's dictatorship if the alternative was the turmoil that ensued afterwards, insurgency, terror attacks, ISIS, etc?
A defense attorney does in fact have duties that aren't in the client's best interest.

The court has rules. Each attorney's first duty is to uphold those rules, and the second duty is to argue for the client to the extent and in the manner those rules allow.

This seems quite similar to the process and rules that govern air traffic safety and its incremental improvement over the decades.

Yeah this, everyones teeth are different. And we all have different enamel thickness etc. And diet definitely plays a role.

Also, it's not inherently bad to brush once a day, IF you're doing a crazy effective job.
It's recommended to brush twice a day because most people don't do a good job, so best to disturb the plaque twice a day before it hardens into tartar (which only the dentist can clear).
Plaque usually hardens within 48 hours.

But always best to talk to your dentist / dental hygienist about what's best for you teeth, as everyones teeth (diet etc) is different.

I was not expecting the 99 Luftballoons song to happen so literally. This is definitely the darkest timeline.
Also the weather balloons are launched on consistent schedule / from consistent consistent locations and they often have a transmitter that allows them to send back data and even be found right?

Not to say one of these can't be a weather balloon, but I would expect these also are known possibilities / somewhat detectable / aren't trying to be sneaky ...
I tried to like this the other day but it was a real hassle.

I have 3 accounts on a website. I thought I could setup 3 different containers, one for each account. But it turns out that switching between containers is not simple. Whenever I tried to switch, I got a pop up from Firefox asking me if I was really sure I wanted to switch my default container for that website. Sometimes it sent me into a redirect loop with the prompt also. I did some googling and found that the consensus was that containers simply aren’t meant to be used that way.

Firefox Multi Account Containers seem to assume you will always use one container for one website, and you can’t easily use multiple containers for a single site. Or at least, it’s very inconvenient to do so.

Agreed. Google’s allergy to the AGPL should make people sit up and take notice. This is a license with teeth, so well written that even Google can’t find a way to subvert it. If you want to write software and give it away without any risk that Google will make a billion dollars off of your hard work without contributing anything back, the AGPL is the way to go.

Ha, it's a good question.

I went to YouTube (as I follow a couple of incident analysis-giving pilots, "MentourPilot" and "74 Gear").

Anyway, there were interesting reports from a couple of Emirates 777 flights which appear to have the same issue [[1], [2], pilots zero-ing altitude on autopilot control {MCP}], but it doesn't look like the OP's issue; it's low-trajectory, not diving.

There was also a stall on take off [3] which might correlate with the issue here?? Also, of course, there's compressor stalls which I gather are usually bird strikes?

Certainly not enough information to make any judgement on cause. No doubt there will be reports out in due time.

There is not a ton of competition in games?

I generally disagree on that if you stick to Windows based games. Now if you're playing on any of the consoles, well longevity is decided by the platform owner.

In the indie games industry there are likely more games than ever that are better than ever and can be self hosted.

The unaddressed problem here is that 'online only' skinner box style games are massive money makers when they are a hit. Couple that with ever increasing costs in making top of the line games and you can see why the people handing out funding want to go that way.
Even if eventually technically feasible, imo it will take multi decades to acquire finish program and acqure platforms in sufficient numbers. Missiles feasible short term because there's airframes and stockpiles. It's a function of what's available. I think PRC can mass weaponize balloons to drope guided munitions much sooner than US can build up economic counter measures. Silly as meme is, balloon gap might eventually be real.
Imagine if someone released a programming language or system that made it possible and tractable to both specify, implement, and prove the correctness of, say, ten different classes of things that most medium-to-large-scale programs have to deal with. Also imagine that this system had no complexity beyond the intrinsic kind.

A lot of people would perhaps be initially impressed. But then they would grow to dislike the fact that the system encourages things like proofs of correctness.[1] They would dislike the fact, or the idea, that they would have to adopt to project conventions and processes that involved that kind of work in order to get their changes merged. That’s friction. And you have to deal with the intrinsic complexity more or less up-front.

Then some time passes and an alternative system comes out. But this system is easier to use. It’s easier to use because it helps you 90% of the way to write and implement those same ten different things. So maybe there are no specifications, and there are certainly no proofs, and certainly no guarantess that X will always be the case or that Y will never be the case. This lack of guarantees gets lauded as “pragmatic”.

In order to try to make up for the missing 10%, fuzzing libraries are written, CI pipelines are set up, everyone is encouraged to write more tests, and more process is added to code reviews. In part because “You are supposed to always do Z, anyway”.

A downside is that you went from having firm guarantees (even with asterisks since they would point you to things like trusted kernels) to having no guarantees. The only guarantee that you have is right after you have run your somewhat lean six minute test suite just before committing: you know that your changes are good modulo those tests since you just ran them. Then you submit a PR and the remote CI reruns the tests.

In the end, with all those code reviews and unit tests and whatnot, you look around and see only blobs of imperative code that could in principle do anything. So you add more sandboxes and security layers. Because, the low-level programmer interjects, “it’s all imperative code under the hood [anyway]”.

[1] Only “encourages” since you can e.g. write stringly-typed programs even in Idris.

Ha, I did exactly the same in exactly same language but that was the end of 80s. Interactivity was just fine as I've increased frequency of timer interrupt to 4096 times / s and would pass control to standard handler every so often so it would work as standard at about 18 times/s. When not calling old interrupt I would execute threads switch and control logic. Turbo Pascal supported built in assembly so writing all low level stuff was piece of cake. I also used built in assembly to implement graphics.
CSI-like shows have spread the misconception that spy satellites can see human face sized objects in real-time. But there are certain physical limits that makes that unlikely to be done from space several hundreds of kilometers above the surface.

That is why spy satellites at much lower altitudes can be useful to spy on other countries. However anything below 100 km is considered an intrusion into the sovereign airspace of a country.
I think Simon is rate limited, and posts as much as he can from a much larger sample size. So probably not useful in terms of identifying frequency trends.

Of all the physical theories, general relativity is probably the one that's least likely to be true of. Because it just wasn't needed in all its generality at that point of time. Instead of going from first principles like Einstein some other physicist could have developed it from the other end, and made corrections to Newton mechanics based on the observed precession of Mercury and the deflection of starlight by the Sun (if someone would have done that observation without the impetus of GR). It could have been akin to how quantum theory in its first 25 years was a collection of ad-hoc explanations of various phenomena using the quantized energy idea but having no generalized theory of them.

The Dallas-based budget airline communicated the change in an internal memo addressed to pilots and later explained that the rationale behind this decision is the willingness to increase opportunities for an airline pilot career to more skilled pilots.

> And the military itself doesn't have enough pilots — a Department of Defense report from 2019 says the Air Force has seen shortfalls since 2006, and the service said it was short more than 1,500 pilots at the end of 2016 — "with the deficit expected to grow." By the end of the 2019 fiscal year, it had — to a deficit of 2,100 pilots, according to written testimony submitted to Congress in 2020.

> The military has also struggled for years to meet its own goals for training new pilots.

TLDR There is a pilot shortage. Lots of pilots retired or took buyouts during COVID when air traffic plummeted, and the pipeline is insufficient to meet the demand ramp.

DoIT estimates the project will take at least 5 years to make the necessary changes resulting in a total state general fund cost of approximately $1.47 Billion .... Total Annual Cost $293,894,620

The Department states historically the cost of implementing a new application, whether replacing an existing application or implementing applications where none existed before, is three to seven times the cost of purchasing the software licenses. [1]

Do the people of New Hampshire believe so strongly in using non-proprietary software that they're willing to take on this extra cost? Is there widespread support and understanding of free or libre software amongst the population?

My experience has been that people have a transactional relationship to software, not a values-based one. Which is the main reason the various free software movements have yet to gain wide spread traction. People don't seem to care about how software is created and how it is licensed but whether it meets a particular need. (I need to file my taxes. I want to listen to music. I want to book a reservation, etc.) The challenge is not necessarily to "make software free" but to first get people to view software through a holistic, non-transactional lens.

The hurdle for this legislation will be convincing legislators to spend $1.47bn on a software replacement that doesn't add any additional features. I mean, are citizens really going to care that the web-based interface they use to file their taxes is no longer using proprietary software under the hood? If they're viewing software through the transactional lens then this plan will seem wasteful and non-productive.

Ugh, same. I thought I was the only one that found these to be impossibly buggy.

The container setup/management UI is glitchy and it often forgets! containers that were created. It feels like a hack week project that got shipped to production.

Despite having containers, Firefox sometimes wants to open the managed website in your current window. Or doesn't ask you at all when you have multiple containers for the same site.

There's a lack of distinction between containerized / non-containerized windows. The colored tabs do not work or break down, leaving you in a mysterious or even dangerous state.

The integration with password management tools is obviously rough. But coupled with the browser's own attempts at session management, plus containers, it's a UX nightmare to log into the right container.

The last time I checked this out was last year. Maybe it's better now? Given Mozilla staffing, though, I'd guess not.

I really want this to work, but the current solution is worse than none at all. I've made do with keeping multiple browsers for different tasks.

Be careful if you use this. It breaks unexpectedly and that can lead to the wrong actions being taken in the wrong accounts.

> And if you're doing that, why force the client to think in terms of async messaging at all? Just let them do REST, and hide the queue under the API layer of the receiver.

because REST is stupid

REST is request -> response, single connection, one direction only, which is a very limited way to model messaging .

There is more than one communication mode and bidirectional messaging is a thing.

REST also offers no control whatsoever over the communication channel, so you are stuck with the configuration set on the server side

which might or might not be correct for your use case

See RSocket for an example of a message driven protocol which solves most of the shortcomings of REST

on the bright side REST is also stupid simple

which is why is so widely deployed, it doesn't require thinking

> response, you've essentially circled back around to clients having to use a client with REST-like

no, because you did not block there waiting for the timeout which defaults to 30 seconds for HTTP

and even if you abandon on the client side, the server will still process the request, there's no way to abort it once it's been started.

That wasn't my argument here - the older games, at the time they came out, were often a mess. Some bugs were patched out, some weren't, but the quality at the time they were relevant wasn't any greater, it was often worse.

But yeah, we're in a new phase where publishers kill games and then they are gone forever and that's a real shame. I think there needs to be some sort of legislation around abandonware so that people can host live services and MMOs after the publishers give up on them.
Interesting, I accomplish this just fine and it's my primary use for containers in Firefox. I don't know what your workflow is like, but I just click the "+" tab button, select one of the other containers I want, and a new tab opens in that container. Type address of website and continue as normal.
