> The technologies to delivery humans to and back from Mars with any defensible level of safety do not currently exist.

But are being worked on. This statement would've been true about landing Falcon 9 stages less than a decade ago.

> The sort of people that advocate otherwise have killed innocent civilians deep in the North Atlantic and are failing to run a previous healthy, if unspectacular, social network.

The differences between SpaceX's approach to safety and how Twitter's being run are pretty stark. Same guy, very different cultures. SpaceX's safety record is good enough for NASA, and they're hardly the #yolo set.
They just had to give it some more time.

But they didn't, Edge a year or two ago was pretty great but they gradually loaded it with crapware.
Huh? I've definitely bounced off shops because their web app experience sucked.
The definition of the Hilbert curve is a line of width 0, so my question makes no theoretical sense.

Anyway, a real example has a line of non zero width, let's asume 1/2^n. Centered? How even is the average dendity distribution? Are the crosses real or an artifact of the pixels in my screen? I don't know and I'm curious?
> Or is it a fancy name for a good old fashioned server rack

In a sense. Yes, it is a rack of servers. You're buying a computer. But we've designed the rack of servers as a full rack of servers, rather than an individual 1U. Comes with software to manage the rack like you would a cloud; you don't think of an oxide rack as individual compute sleds, you think of it as a pool of capacity.

> And if it's a server rack, how come you don't need any cables?

Because you are buying an entire rack. The sleds are blind mated. You plug in power, you plug in networking, you're good to go. You're not cabling up a bunch of individual servers when you're installing.

> Do they host it in their data center or deliver it to you?

Customers get them delivered to their data center.

Happy to answer any other questions.

Both repos link each other close to the tops of their respective readmes. Annoyingly, though, the webstite seems to only include the static tools.
The Beatles' final song is coming together because of artificial intelligence
I did read; I saw the additional sentence that, yes, astronauts are at increased risk of kidney stones. I get that.

My surprise comes from the fact that a trip to Mars is already incredibly risky and any astronaut signing up likely is at peace with never coming home. I would think "painful kidney stones" or "non-ideal kidney stone treatment" is far enough down the list of potential concerns for such an astronaut that it wouldn't block NASA from giving "the go ahead they need to travel to Mars", which is what the article says.

Like, I get that NASA funds all sorts of things like this. I just can't quite believe that this is considered a showstopper. Like the famous apocryphal anecdote about needing to develop a zero-gravity pen before the moon mission; I'd have been equally surprised, even knowing that story, to hear that NASA wouldn't have launched the moon mission until they figured the pen out.

Depends on your security perspective. Your credentials are tied to a device. Some of those have device specific methods for backup/restore such keys.

There are some benefits too. If you passkey from Site A gets compromised, it doesn't affect other services. If the password gets compromised and you used it elsewhere too, you might run into problems.

Services have the advantage of not having to store a password without needing to use external auth providers.

Personally I use passwords.

The robotic probe is backed up by thousands of scientists, analyzing the data it sends back home, while the man with the shovel is unlikely to even survive long enough on Mars (if he even gets there alive) to discover anything the robot missed.

If I send a probe, I can pack the entire payload with scientific instruments. If I send a man with a shovel, I have to pack food, water, air, habitats, spacesuits, and other tidbits instead, just to keep the man with the shovel alive (for a time).
the project itself needs to be listed in its own list of projects :)

Otherwise I think the majority of windows laptops now have touch screens, so while they still have a pointer based input most of the time, touch friendly design is an advantage for the majority of the users.

Servitude is subjective. For me knowing I can't fire an employer or client at will, having to rely on them for years, knowing that if they do fire me i have max one month to find a new job or lose my house and uproot my family, is servitude. I want the sweet freedom America promises from day one. However, I do respect people that put up with it and I am not belittling anyone.
I'd tear that thermostat off the wall and get a different one today if it behaved that way.
We won't compromise. The alternative is cops get the fuck out there and do real police work instead of co-opting our computers into their total surveillance network. I literally don't care that it makes their job harder. It should be as hard as possible.

But then you'd have to bring the oxygen instead. To manufacture anything resembling normal rocket fuel you need at least oxygen + hydrogen. Preferrably oxygen, hydrogen and carbon, so you don't have to deal with cryogenic storage of hydrogen.
Users on mobile can’t make their screens that big, and the average users on desktops don’t expect a webpage to work when they resize their browsers that small. Trying to make both work with the same design can have a negative impact on your customers, from both a usability perspective and by increasing page weight.

Instead, my advice is to create individual designs for each, share when it makes sense, but actively diverge when it’s good for your customers. There doesn’t need to be a single version of a page.

Your mileage may vary.
Off-topic nitpicking: I find it intriguing to encounter the term "marsquake" in scientific articles, or anywhere outside science fiction. Replacing the prefix "earth" with the nomenclature of a celestial body is somewhat perplexing and unnecessary. This practice is more plausible when applied to "Earth," our own planet with that capitalized "E" - for instance, the transformation from "earthling" to "marsling" is linguistically sound. Are we going to now "unmars" new data from these studies? Will potatoes grown on Mars have a "marsy" taste to them? Will this practice scale when we finally colonize the Solar System and have to replace these words for each and every planet or moon? Should "colonize" be called "elonize" the Solar System since Columbus is controversially bound to Earth history alone? /s
Strange that the tide has changed from not even being able to question the risks of the covid vaccine without becoming an anti-vaxxer and potentially losing your job to now articles like this showing us that it might be risky after all.

Halloween is coming up in a week or so and I still remember people having gravestones in their yard during the height of covid with cute sayings such as
'getting a second opinion' on the covid vaccine or 'talking to my doctor' meant death.

There really should be lawsuits and jail time for anyone pushing the nonsense that we couldn't question what was being put into our own bodies. The worst part of it is that many people lost their jobs over it.
The US doesn't import much from Saudi Arabia. It is mainly for East Asia and Europe. Even tiny, little Belgium imports as much oil and gas from Saudi Arabia as the US does.

Roundabouts are SHIT - especially so when they eventually acquire traffic lights - leading up to them, and finally actually on them...

In the UK its priority to the right, meaning if there's something coming around the roundabout, you must/should wait... Which only works of there is a gap in the flow of traffic big enough for you to jump into...

Don't worry USA, you'll soon regret your decision to introduce roundabouts.

Stick with your sensible "right on red" logic, and your sweeping circular on/off ramps (yeah, you and Canada have plenty of space to do those) - they are genius for maintaining traffic flow (not so convinced about the traffic lights leading onto the freeway though at rush hour times!)

If you fancy a giggle of what mayhem roundabouts can cause, try searching for "spaghetti junction" near Birmingham England, or "the magic roundabout" of Swindon England fame - they are priceless!

Enjoy! ;-)
HUMILITY

1. The state or quality of being humble; freedom from pride and
arrogance; lowliness of mind; a modest estimate of one's own worth; a
sense of one's own unworthiness through imperfection and sinfulness;
self-abasement; humbleness.

-- Webster's 1918 Dictionary

Our avionics software was originally spec-ed to not NEED a debugger it was to be of such high quality, but the designer added break point op-codes in the VM anyway. I guess he was aware of the concept of humility, too. ;) Like humor, humility seems to be in short supply these days.
There may be some part of subjectivity and pessimism involved, but here are a few things in France (and I think it applies to most European countries):

- heatlhcare isn't what it used to be. Sure, it's free but it can take months to see some doctors, or even a dentist.

- retirement: the pension system isn't good. Most people will get less than 1.5K a month, and not before 64. The effects of the various pension reforms aren't visible yet but they will increase old people poverty.

- safety: this is political and people hold strong opinions on this, but my feeling is that poverty is on the rise, there are more and more unemployed young refugees...

More speculatively, I think Europe lacks natural resources and this is going to bite us more than the US.

Huge Sonic Youth fan, albeit a younger one. I caught the tail-end of their career in my HS/college days, c. 2003-2010. I can't think of an equivalent band today that has the kind of stature they had at the time in the indie scene.

Part of what I loved so much about them is the number of free shows they put on. I can always pin the year that I saw them in Prospect Park at 2010, because the iPhone 4 had just been released, and my friend who I was with proceeded to watch the entire show through her new phone, being completely enamored with the "retina display" while tripping on acid.

When I saw them in 2008 in Battery Park, I had the pleasure of sitting on the lawn next to 90s child star Danny Tamborelli, who many will remember as one of the stars of Pete & Pete (a show with its own sort of indie cred). My friend I was with turned to me and said "That's Danny Tamborelli, we need to say hi to him" and before I could get "No we absolutely do not" out of my mouth, he dragged me over and proceeded to introduce us saying "We're great fans of your work". So I shook his hand, way too high for this interaction, as Thurston took a drumstick to his guitar in the background.

I miss Sonic Youth a lot.
Yeah, as someone who can't use touch screens, this is a serious pain point in a lot of my web browsing. Mobile first design is an accessibility problem.
I'm not an immigration lawyer, but there are 193 countries in the world and some of them might be easier to move to than you think.

For example, Brexit made it harder for EU citizens to move to the UK, but it made it significantly easier for everyone else. To get a "skilled worker visa" you need 70 "points" in the new system, which you can achieve by speaking English (10 points) and getting an offer from a visa-sponsoring company (20 points) for a "skilled" job (20 points) that pays £25600 (~$31k) or more a year (20 points):

https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/uk-points-based-i...

£25k/year isn't high; pretty much any tech or tech-adjacent job in the UK will pay more than that. And if you know how to do web dev then you're probably considered "high skilled", e.g. I see "Internet developer" and "Web designer" on the official list of eligible occupations:

https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/skilled-worker-vi...

(Incidentally, this is why it's completely deranged and insane that the current British government is constantly accused of being "anti-immigration". Has no-one looked at the actual data? Immigration to the UK has never been easier, nor have rates of immigration ever been higher than under the current government. But that's another topic entirely.)

And the UK's not the only option. My wife and I looked into this a few years ago; iirc we could meet the points requirements to move to Canada or Australia pretty easily, and we're not exceptionally "high-skilled" (we're comfortably middle class but have very normal tech/corporate jobs.)

Moving countries doesn't have to be a permanent decision either. I lived abroad for many years, then I came home, and I don't regret either move.

Anyway, I don't know you and I'm not going to tell you to up-end your life and start again in a completely new country. Obviously it's a huge decision and everyone's personal circumstances are different. All I'm saying is that it might be easier than you realise.

I don't think so. It's strictly more work than designing a good UI for a single device which is hard enough, and usually more work than designing multiple UIs for different devices no matter.

A smartphone, iPad, and ultrawide monitor demand fundamentally different UX considerations. Generalizing across all of them, and in one codebase, demands a certain expertise or else everyone would be doing it.
Are you making the assumption that I am American with the "you people" comment? Well when will you please realise not everyone on here is necessarily American ;)

It's very hard for many designers and others to get their head around it, sure.

But I think a lot of the challenge is using pixel perfect static mockups drawn in some design tool.

It would be faster to have a napkin sketch and work with UI dev and figure out the cascading and wrapping at design time.
>What’s the clinical definition of “tight shoulders”?

Chronic contraction of the upper trapezius.

>[I]s it shown to correlate significantly with inhalation problems?

There’s not much in the medical literature beyond noting that that upper trapezius is an accessory muscle in expanding the lungs. (MDs correct me if this is wrong.)

Physiotherapy research is less rigorous but more expansive on the point. See e.g. Kim et al.

>BACKGROUND:
Forward head posture (FHP) causes changes in the strengths and rigidities of cervical muscles.

OBJECTIVE:
The aim of this study was to investigate correlations between FHP and respiratory functions and the muscle activities of respiratory accessory muscles in young adults in their 20s.

METHODS:
A volunteer sample of 33 healthy young adults participated in this study. Craniovertebral angle (CVA), cranial rotational angle (CRA), vital capacity (VC), forced vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory volume at 1 second (FEV1), peak expiratory flow (PEF), maximal voluntary ventilation (MVV), and sternocleidomastoid (SCM) and upper trapezius activity ratios were measured.

RESULTS:
Significant positive correlations were found between CVA and VC, FVC, FEV1, PEF, and MVV, and a significant negative correlation was found between CVA and SCM activity ratio. Significant negative correlations existed between CRA and VC and FVC, and significant positive correlations between CRA and SCM and upper trapezius activity ratios.

> Serialized components / hardware DRM exist to disincentivize the pickpocket-to-grey-market-refurbished pipeline

I understand that reasoning for it (although I think that's not the only reason Apple does this).

But personally, that sort of thing is one of the reasons why I wouldn't buy an iPhone. The cost of that kind of "theft protection" is, for me, too high. I prefer not having any theft protection at all over a scheme that removes my ability to repair or modify my devices.

Hardware DRM (at least as it exists) makes really meaningful right-to-repair technically impossible.

A turntable also inhibits superheating of water. A superheated cup of water will expand to steam immediately if disturbed before it cools:

I am not taxed differently on the land vs the buildings. There is no market force on the land portion specifically from the city. Any appeal I would make would be based on comps, which are invariably land and improvements together.

My insurance limits are distinct and negotiated between me and the insurance company, based on the cost to rebuild, which is at best loosely correlated to the current value of the improvements.
