Here in Norway, there's been several fatal flight accidents featuring turboprops in my lifetime that I recall. Two of them were both controlled flights into terrain[1][2], both due to pilot error (leading to a large restructuring of the operations and procedure at the airline after the latter).

A third one was due to wind exceeding the airplanes design limits[3], the airport was known for strong turbulence and wind shear due to location and mountainous terrain, and the airport was permanently closed after.

The fourth one seems to be due to improper maintenance and counterfeit parts[4], causing the tail to fail.

There's also been a few fatal accidents involving the Hercules like the Svanfjell-accident[5] due to a misunderstanding of the height clearance and the Kebnekaise-accident[6], again due to human error as well as maps lacking correct height data for the area.

From what I can see[7], there's few if any fatal turboprop accidents involving the engines. So seems that at least here in Norway, the main reason is they fly a lot of stops on small airstrips located in difficult terrain, as well as being operated by smaller airlines with less organizational oversight.

Though I'm not expert by any means, and things might be different in other places.

I've seen them help with things like dirty checking, that's a lot of work to take on properly. But in the end I think relying on them for significant load and scale is naive.

I'm sure you have something better to be doing.
Reason you might want to target queries for your own site with ads is that your competitors will do so and you want to outbid them. If I search for the name of a therapist group in my city, the top result right now is a competing firm which does online therapy. But I agree that bids with specific intent for your site should at least cost less than bids for queries for products in your industry

> I joke that the thing we get out of going to the office is to socialize.

I understand the sentiment, but in-office socializing isn’t necessarily a bad thing or counterproductive. Sure, there are introverts who will insist on how much they despite in-office social norms and culture. There are also plenty of folks somewhere in between introvert and extrovert that appreciate the ability to spontaneously socialize in low pressure situations. That socializing can build rapport and overall happiness for folks. Remote work makes it challenging to do that without it feeling either very manufactured and typically self-selective for other extroverts; or a cheesy, clumsily organized “work event” that fails to attract much attention.
That’s what insurance is for. Far less expensive than maintaining fault tolerance at the current scale. If there were a fire or something (like Google’s recent explosion in France from an overflowing toilet), we’d lose at least several minutes of data, and be able to boot up in a cloud with degraded capabilities within ten minutes or so. Not too worried about it.
I got an IKEA air quality sensor for $50. It reports readings over Zigbee (PM 2.5 and tVOC, along with temperature and humidity), which is great. The PM2.5 reading is within 2-3 μm/m3 of my laser sensor that I got off of Ali, so quite accurate.
Cattlemen sometimes construct ponds to provide water for their cattle. Is the pond a wetland? Suppose the rancher sells off his herd. Should he be required to keep the pond that has now become a breeding ground for mosquitoes?
Maybe orthogonal but I am looking for a financial one api proxy that doesn't store my customers' data (only routes them). Do you have any plans to have a Fuse native aggregator that doesn't scrape customer transactions?

I don't use any product that forces me to use Plaid because they copy my transaction info. If anyone knows of aggregators that respect privacy please share them, AFAIK there are none.
> Every non-trivial long-lived application will require tweaks to individual queries at the string level. The proper way to build a data layer is one query at a time, as a string, with string interpolation. The closer you are to raw JDBC the better.

This is bullshit, IME. I've been doing this for over 10 years, and there's not a single one of those "requires a tweak at the string level" queries that couldn't be handled better by actually spending 5 minutes reading the Hibernate documentation and doing what it says to do in that situation. But the same SQL fanboys who believe every developer ought to memorize tri-state truth tables and COBOL-style function names can somehow never be bothered to do that.
You can always find a reason to defend any feature. In the case of this article you could say it's more seamless to open Outlook links in their browser. And that's exactly what Microsoft's PR says.

But for some reason Apple's fans are way more insistent in defending everything and sticking to the PR department's arguments. No criticism is allowed to stand.

Leaving aside religious and philosophical aspects, I think Most people would struggle to identify exact date and time they were conceived.
I think most of the problem with waiting for windows to open is a matter of lack of caching, or waiting on some process that could have been parallel, or something like that.

Rarely do I ever see a library that takes more than milliseconds to import, or something slowed down on a function only called on a click or every few minutes or otherwise not in an inner loop.

I see lots of slow file open dialogs, which I'm told is often because of checking for network drives and things like that. I've seen exactly one library that was causing me so much performance trouble I had to ditch it, and that was an rrules engine.

Finding the next occurrence of something like "Every five minutes on Thursday" was taking an insane amount of time, but that's because I was calling it constantly to schedule lots of different things that happened very frequently.

I've also seen lots of things be slow because they wait for the network too. But basic stuff that libraries are normally used for generally seem to be fine. I don't think there's any way I could write a faster gaussian blur than Pillow or a faster text search than the default regex libs.
One argument against ChatGPT's AI-ness was that it's wildly unstable: a small change in the input may become a big change in the output. When that's fixed, GPT will still need memory to learn things, as AI that can't learn isn't really AI. However the memory can be added easily: it's just a hidden step after every prompt when GPT is asked to update it's memory state (a blob of text, its scratchpad). If GPT is stable, it will update the memory more or less properly. With these two changes, and they are fairly simple, GPT5 will earn its AI badge. P.S. I find it interesting that eye and AI sound similarly, so perhaps the symbol of the future AI deity will be an eye.
Matt Hancock says UK's pandemic strategy was completely wrong
Github isn't the only git host. So in this example you would be specifically wanting to play with other github users. Many have made it their thing to avoid Github entirely.
But why should that be outright criminal?

I haven’t read the case. But wouldn’t first steps involve getting a restraining order and then finding breach of that? That gives someone who may not understand how their words are understood a fair warning. What if I perceive your comment to be threatening? Do we really want judges adjudicating on something so subjective?
Most likely, you're being swindled by your dealership.

Your rotors should never need resurfacing unless you're doing a lot of HARD braking. Stop-and-go traffic doesn't count, here. We're talking something that causes your brakes to frequently get hot and begin warping. If your braking feels fine, there's no reason to get them resurfaced.

Check your manual for fluid change intervals. Don't let the dealer convince you to replace any of the fluids that aren't part of the schedule.

> I wonder about Ev - do they not have brakes, Cv joints, bearings, differentials (I know there's no transmission), et cetera?

Brakes will last the life of the car since regen braking means the pads/rotors are never used at more than 10 mph except in an emergency.

As for the others...yeah, they don't require nearly as much maintenance as your dealer is telling you. The 2003 Suzuki Esteem I owned in the past did 150,000 miles and I never did any maintenance on the differential, CV joints, or bearings.
We had a query builder in our app and ended up stripping it out in favour of raw SQL and string interpolation (for dyanmic queries, not for passing in data). We found the raw sql was much more readable.

We still used the library for inserts and updates.
H100s are intended to be retailed piecemeal. The big enterprise model is DGX GH200, at $10 mil each.

Its just that current supply is extremely short, so the H100s end up only available to big buyers. But that will be resolved in time. Nvidia wants every university lab to have a H100 so no competitor sneaks in there.
That validation does sound very worthwhile. Thanks for the reply and suggestion!
> It just means that if you want to extend the software, you must distribute source code with it.

It means a lot more than that. The most significant difference in my line of work is the anti-tivoization requirements. Essentially if you ship this software in a device, you must allow the user to change the software/firmware on that device. I do embedded Linux work for several different clients, and they are almost never OK with this. So I have to be careful to never use GPLv3 software.

Not that I agree completely with the OP. I love when I can customize the firmware on devices I get (that is almost a precondition for my purchasing it), and I wish more manufacturers were OK with it.
> The way that regular bluetooth headsets work fine, but AirPods work even better;

I think this is one thing a ton of people don't realize. Apple doesn't want to sell you individual devices. They want you to sell an entire electronic ecosystem that serves all of your technology needs and seamlessly integrates all of it for you.

It's why they put effort into things like handoff, copy & paste on iPhone/mac, AirDrop, iCloud photo sharing, et al. Sure there's a profit motive in having you use all their stuff, but they really do make a genuine effort to make things work together better than disparate devices, companies or manufacturers do.

I still have to use a private channel in Signal to share things like pics or links from iOS/OSX/Windows because there just isn't a good cross-ecosystem app that I've found. Discord and slack sort of work, but they're not E2E encrypted like Signal is.

Maybe I'm mistaken, but I think someone who is already using a relational database through an ORM can learn enough to make powerful queries in an afternoon.

Let's see what we need:

- SELECT a,b,c FROM table WHERE condition : 1 hour

- INNER JOIN, LEFT JOIN : 1 hour

- GROUP BY, HAVING, aggregation functions: 1 hour

- subqueries, EXISTS : 1 hour

- recursive queries : 1,5 hours

- end of the afternoon

You'll probably need to practice a little after that intense afternoon, but I do think that after learning just the five points above, you can become the most knowledgeable person about SQL in your team.
locked mode is my fav as well. I used it to re-make a DoomEmacs-like workspace with helix.
What the article laments seems to be the same business model that building automation systems have been operating under for decades and not specific to air quality. The commercial version usually has the additional downside of very expensive service contracts.
As in wetlands aren’t in the original statute. The term is “waters of the United States.”
"Not bare metal" does not imply "the cloud". You might be part of a company that doesn't give teams access to raw servers, you might be paying for VMs with dedicated resources from a local data center, or any number of other situations.

Not everyone has the luxury of being able to procure and install hardware and/or run an antenna to someplace with gpc reception.
> Any message system that is not end-to-end encrypted is going to have this property.

Yes, but in a different sense. I use Mattermost for some chatting. Mattermost is not E2EE, nor is it federated. I only have to trust my admins with my private messages, because the recipient has the same admins.

In a federated environment, I may trust my admins, but it is not particularly obvious that I must also trust the recipients admins.

> GMail can read your emails

Only if I send an unencrypted email to someone who uses GMail. Which yes, is the same security flaw that is being described in the post. None of the other things you listed are federated. They should also not be trusted, but that's more obvious.
When you're building machines that need to work in alien environments, you run into a lot of "what-ifs", without clear answers. So you "over"engineer your solution, because it'll probably be cheaper than re-doing the whole mission.

Meanwhile, there's a academic research politics side going on, where a lot of people want their experiment to be done by your probe, the negotiations for which happen oftentimes before the probe has a solid design. You want to be able to tell some subset of people "as long as we don't screw up terribly, you should be safe betting on this", and tell the others "you'll be in the "nice-to-have" category, don't get your hopes up". So a mission lifetime gets decided, pretty much independently of engineering considerations.

They could, in theory, update their lifetime estimates after the project is finished, but there is little to gain at that point: The researchers with experiments in the "nice-to-have" set have already hedged their bets, the engineers would rather have a 50x success than have announced an over-estimate, and nobody really complains when the Opportunity is still truckin' around the Martian surface years later.
Weird take; doesn't strike me as at all inevitable. I can't think of any similar huge thing that won like this merely by being a first-mover. Google, Facebook, Spotify etc etc?

It could be significant in embedded devices due to the anti-tivoization requirements of the GPLv3.
In practice, you normally don't know the exact date of conception, you can only roughly estimate, but any estimate is likely to be a few days out. There are exceptions – e.g. IVF, or the parents know they only did it once and remember the exact date they did it on (but their memories may be fallible, etc). Birth is better because (in developed countries where babies are normally born in hospital) the bureaucracy almost always knows the exact date every person was born – in many cases even the time of day, not that anyone really cares about that.

Plus, any proposal like that is inevitably going to get mixed up with the politics of abortion, which is another reason why it won't happen.

You haven't given any indication that you have considered any of my points in any meaningful way. I'm just gonna accept the fact that you want to continue your linguistic mission and disengage. Judging by your comment history you have a habit of winning wars of attrition.

Please at least consider the idea that being the censorious force in the world can worsen the quality of discussion.
Yes you are correct, but they are foreign made because they are cheaply imported in the first place. Otherwise they would be both made and purchased in the US.

U.S. Considers New Curbs on AI Chip Exports to China
Excerpt:

"The Biden administration is considering new restrictions on exports of artificial intelligence chips to China, as concerns rise over the power of the technology in the hands of U.S. rivals, according to people familiar with the situation.

The Commerce Department could move as soon as early next month to stop the shipments of chips made by Nvidia and other chip makers to customers in China and other countries of concern without first obtaining a license, the people said. "
Generally it wasn't technically possible to work fully remote until the last ten years so not sure how you can say that everyone that was working onsite or in an office from 1945-2010 had a bad time, since there wasn't any substantial alternative to compare it to. I do note that the world kept turning during this period and we were productive.
Is this hardware change going to make grokking the underlying hardware schematics and instruction set significantly harder compared to the older AVR version? Few years ago, when learning electronics, I was going through UNO3 schematics and AVR instruction manual and it did not take too much effort for them to make sense.

Or perhaps I am not a target audience of this hardware change.

I don't understand why people keep quoting the "Die" message, when there are others that were much, much worse: "Was that you in the white Jeep? ... I am unsupervised. I know, it freaks me out too, but the possibilities are endless.”

These messages clearly would have been considered threats by most reasonable people. Disagree? Send some similar ones to your least-favorite SCOTUS justice and see how that goes for you.
Forgive me if this is dumb, but is Fuse connect a direct route to connect to banks orthogonal to third party aggregators? Is there a way to say no third parties?

My priorities are privacy first then wider coverage for bank accounts. I'd rather some consumers are blocked form accessing the service than having their transaction data getting leaked to intermediaries.

I can already imagine the arguments the team required to implement this change are having about the best way to make this change in the db.
I fully agree with the person you're responding to, and it is a gotcha. I also understand your point that the offended party is the Bahamas, but if the US said it would pursue some charges, why is it then trying more? Why is it that the mechanism is "one parry can do what it wants unless the other party complains" instead of "one party can only do what it agreed to"?

Also, I BET YOU that behind the scenes the us is telling the Bahamas "you better not complain about this or else we'll get you on that other thing". Because.... you think US prosecutors would leave this possibility to chance? Why would the Bahamas not complain?

That's right, this is why people view lawyers as dishonest.

Likely a ploy to lay off more expensive older workers in favor of newer younger/cheaper ones. I can imagine them saying, "It has nothing to do with their age, we just need 'EV experience.'" Give me a break.

The idea that auto maker employees can't adapt to building EV's is pretty absurd. Interesting that upper management/execs are not being tossed out as well. You would assume they would be the group with the most outdated knowledge in a changing market. I know this did happen with Toyota, but you don't hear much with the likes of Ford. They seem as backwards as ever when it comes to selling cars.

Do you have evidence for this? Through some Google-fu and to the best of my understanding, they just made the qualifications to take part in the program more strict to prevent fraud.
If you followed the thread, my estimate was ~3,000 TBps, welterde gave “1.7 - 2.3 Pbit/s” = 1700 to 2300 TBps. 1228 TBps is well below both of our estimates. Last I checked global IP traffic it’s still well under 2,000 TBps looking at the rate traffic is increasing Starlink really can act as a major internet backbone.

Also, Starlink customer to Starlink customer is very compelling for may applications. Undersea cables for example can create much higher latency between areas than their physical separation for example Australia to Madagascar. Similarly there’s still quite a bit of point to point microwave tower connections etc that can now be cheaply replaced.
I suspect there might not be a clear answer simply from remote vs. in-office. It might depend on what type of company you are, how large of a company, etc. And I tend to think that some types of teams benefit more from being in office than others, such as those with more time in meetings vs. engineers spending most of their time on individual work requiring deep focus.
It's more that the cost of "over"-engineering some pieces is dwarfed by the cost of getting an object to space/Mars/Jupiter/whatever.

gonzales v raich is probably one of the more absurd examples of this
Nice. I do something like this except less complex. I use Blitzmail (there's an iPhone equivalent, but I don't know what it's calle) -- basically, it's an ultra simple app that pops a window to email only one person (usually, yourself) and have replicated a script on my desktop to do the same.

Then I have another script which just makes them ALL "todo" items in the journal of http://zim-wiki.org, and I just "check" (triage?) those every day.

okay, every few days, but i'm trying to better about it.

Either way it's replace a LOT of individual "apps" for me.
SQL may be a language for all those things, but unfortunately it's horribly bad at it. Wilfully obtuse syntax. Incredibly poor compositionality. No testability worth the name. The deployment model is a half-baked pile of perl scripts, and that's if you're lucky.

So yeah, I use SQL like https://xkcd.com/783/ . I'm sure you have a bunch of cool data analysis tools in there, but please just shut up, give me the contents of my table, and let me process it in a real programming language where I have map/reduce/filter as regular composable functions that I can test and reuse, with a syntax that doesn't make my eyes bleed.
