If the sentence replaces Europe with "is the" it would read "Ariane 5 is the most successful launch system to date"

That's not remotely true, see Falcon 9 for example. 282 successful missions so far and they are now running about 100 launches a year.

I'm not trying to put Ariane 5 down, it's great for what it's supposed to accomplish, much like SLS is good for what it is supposed to accomplish. A govt jobs program that occasionally launches stuff into space. If your goal is launch stuff into space as cheaply as possible, they are total failures.

If your goal is to create a jobs program and keep the local population capable of launching stuff to space, then they are obviously successful.

Just like Ariane 6.
aprox 5m frauds out of 40m transactions, insane.
Fraudulent transactions are ~10% of all transactions? That seems much higher than I would expect.
The void could also just be filled of negative-mass matter, pushing away ordinary (positive mass) matter
If you average the total number by business right now its about $4800. Could be interesting to see if this number increases or decreases later on.

The 360 32-bit registers but a 24-bit address space, the 370 (from 1971) made that a virtual address space. Both of those I would call a "24-bit" computer. In 1983 IBM came out with the 370-XA

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_System/370-XA

which I would describe as "32-bit" I think the VAX is a good example of a "32-bit" machine because they are similar in most respects to ARM/x86/RISC-V, particularly the virtual memory facility and how that relates to the OS such that you can boot Linux on it

https://www.linux.com/news/linuxvax-porting-project-maybe-la...

The VAX was really common, our high school had one, but when the 386 hit the market we were all shocked that you could have your very own PC that would perform 5x faster than a certain VAX at certain benchmarks and before long it was 30x faster.

The strange thing about the PC was that it took a very long time for 32-bit OS to be mainstream: the 386 was out in 1986 but it wasn't until Windows 95 that most people were running a 32-bit OS though I had a Linux computer in 1993 and dragged home a free VT-100 from the math department and a free Commodore 128 from the undergraduate physics lab both of which I used to log into it.
Its just a centralization thing. All things go towards the capital of the empire. It was madrid,paris, then london - for now it is the bay area?

Europe needs to stop clinging to the milk cows of the past. The car industry is a dieing endavour, highly disruptable due to dependence on fossil fuels.

Ironically, in my opinion, eastern europe is setup much better for software. Im regularly blown away what the chech republic, poland and the baltic tigers do - compared to west europe.
Well, obviously no but I think it would still help with taking appointments at the best times and havung better reminders among other things.

I was just wondering if it would be a good idea.
Why the slash backward slash for override?
Well, there’s the entire history of Dole and also the United Fruit Company in South America.

In more recent history, Exxon has a checkered past when it comes to using force against sovereign citizens, often employing paramilitary organizations to guard oil fields [1] to more recently abusing international court systems to disbar and jail the lawyer which successfully secured judgements against them [2]

And at this very moment, right now, is the ongoing genocide in the Congo due to rare earth mineral mining [3]

Everything I link here is quite frankly the tip of the iceberg, not the end-all-be-all, but meant to provide a jumping off point should you want to research how often private capital and genocide go hand in hand.

The reality is that, for the majority of compounds we've found that provide "anti-aging" benefits, they are affordable by the middle class. Some are more expensive than others, but they're all well within an affordable range.
Those groups can mostly amount to less than 10% of prospective new car buyers, if I'm allowed to speculate. I think that almost everybody who is in the market for a new car will know several persons to give them recommendations and advice. So the ads will only be targeting some people who have a lot of disposable money and few real friends to help them choose a car, and no understanding to compare cars themselves. Maybe the children of rich careerists?

Or it could be that the advertisement and media industry have their heads too far up their own asses to care what they're doing. It certainly seems like this sometimes, when huge brands can destroy themselves permanently in a matter of days with out of touch advertising.
As long as it cannot be oppressive to the majority of the population, and until you are free to emigrate taking your belongings with you, calling "oppressive" a modern democratic country is a huge lack of respect to those people who lived their entire life with no choice at all.
While this approach may seem simpler, this project method utilizes a more optimized and faster model, resulting in improved efficiency and performance.
Data analysis in cars has become the norm. That doesn't mean all data collected will be uploaded to the cloud.

Your phone keeps track of how many apps you open when and how often to get good battery life, and it's not a problem unless you're a dissident living in an oppressive state. Sure, your phone may be full of trackers and other privacy violations, but that particular tidbit isn't accessible anywhere but locally.

I wouldn't want one of these cars, but that has very little to do with the car storing a flag that says I'm not drunk. It's all the other crap that irks me.

> the study highlights exactly the difference the GP was saying: gen z is much more likely to be okay with the surveillance state

You admit to CATO being biased but you still believe their studies are concrete proof of a hypothesis?

> you’ve presented no argument for why gen z would be disproportionately made to over-respond.

I don’t see why it’s relevant to prove the mechanism CATO uses to get its results, when their data doesn’t line up with the real world.

I’m still looking for the exact link which has details/numbers (I’m currently on my phone on patchy 4g) but my counterpoint to CATO is that in Dunedin, either the University or DCC wanted to install surveillance cameras, and after consulting with the students, the number of cameras was reduced. So in this scenario, you have an older generation wanting more surveillance and the younger generation pushing back. This is not only completely opposite to CATOs study, but is also real opposed to hypothetical.
Trafficking is a crime. Slavery is a crime. Assault is a crime. Sex is not a crime.
You're picking one single treatment and saying "look, this is proof of the problem", ignoring that the treatment is extremely new - like, ~2 years of availability (and it was rushed out!). There may be inherent costs to the treatment that are specific and unrelated to whatever is found in other treatments.
I can't believe I scrolled this far down before seeing a comment like yours.

I'm not saying I've done everything in the list, but have done many of those things without thinking twice.

And the rest of them, I likely would not think twice about either.

Do people really feel like they can't do these things for some reason?
Yes. They need to patch svchost.exe to not use the whole computer.
Love the analogy ;)

But yes, if your condom could detect if your partner had an elevated blood/alcohol level and requested them to confirm that they consented to the sexual act, would it be the same? And would it be useful, or would it just elevate the stats of condom-less rape?

In the same vein; if you could rip out the processor of your car because it refused to drive because it thought you were drunk, would it increase safety or reduce it?
If you can determine which traffic is ad traffic; why not just block it?

Cute. Keyboard navigation doesn't work though, that'd be properly '80s.
That complexity is how companies typically differentiate their product, generally purposely to keep it from interoperability with other software so their entire business is not commodified.

Just look at the IOT space to see this in play.
> Ah yes, those evil eastern European coming to take the poor jobs nobody wants and pay taxes, while the unemployed Brits sleep in late in council houses living on benefits. Check out the series 'Benefits Street' on YouTube.

No one wants them because mass migration suppresses wages. For example in the UK we systematically suppress NHS wages to the point no Brit would want to work in the NHS anymore. We achieve this by importing hundreds of thousands of workers from parts of the world with lower per-capita income.

And I'm not being critical here. I'm highly in favour of this because it reduce healthcare costs in the UK. But on the flip side it's then absurd to argue that Brits don't want those jobs since we're actively suppressing wages. Like in the past Brits would work in the NHS if we allowed for labour competition. If the NHS was forced to pay more to attract labour then Brits would obviously want to work for the NHS again.
Are we still talking about Photoshop where the combined transformation tool is absent from the toolbox and needs to be called from the main menu instead?
I'm a happy user of GIMP whe also happened to have switched from Photoshop. I even managed to use keyboard shortcuts cuz it's so intuitive. I never make efforts to learn them, not in gimp not elsewhere, but the description was straightforward that I would have a hard time not learning it. (P for paint/pen, M for move, T for text, Shift+E for erasor)

Now I like Krita too, but mostly because of the pen library. Krita is actually less intuitive than GIMP imo (Why are there different moving tools for vector and raster layers? How do I enlarge my selection? How do I flip the canvas for correction reasons? I know there's a shortcut for that, I pressed it by accident.)

Would I call Krita bad UX? Not really, it has a place in my workflow. But I prefer GIMP for its power and since I can get around it well. They have been obviously stretched thin for a long time, I myself have been waiting for features and improvements in GIMP for years. But really, I think people underestimate the complexity of these tools and quick to label them unintuitive. I don't think you can overhaul the UI without removing some or many features GIMP currently has.
> Apple nor the app store plays any part in this. Apple faces exactly zero costs to enable the actual streaming of value itself, yet just grabs 30% of it.

It they don't play any part, just get out of Apple ecosystem.

Or why don't spotify then develop a smartphone and put it in the hands of billions of people and them distribute its app there. This is the easy part, right?
There's a lot of online fraud. We invest a ton in Radar, our payment surfaces, etc., to keep this as invisible as possible to businesses. (We don't always succeed, of course. But, despite the growing sophistication of the fraudsters themselves, we do generally get better every year.)
Ugh, I love the data but the 3d parallax interface kept moving slightly (on mobile) and literally made me feel motion sickness after a minute.

I agree. Most will quickly be shown to be entirely useless. But there is probably room for more than one company specialising in each AI-powered idea and it isn’t true that some company offering an easy way to create such apps, like OpenAI, will necessarily automatically dominate.

This is bad advice

*For you. I think it's a obvious and great advice, software engineers shouldn't define themselves by their stack (Java programmer?).

> They'll have an even more difficult time finding a job if they decide to switch stacks now.

That's why planning your career on changing stacks is such a good advice: you do it before you really need. I have kept a main stack and a "side project" stack for my whole career, going from PHP, ASP, .NET, RoR, clojure, Python then JavaScript for the longest with Rust currently as the side stack I'm learning. Had I got stuck on PHP I would regret it badly.
I have only one reaction: Flipboard still exists?

Wow. Never would have thought. They were so hyped a few years ago, I even have an account and shortly used it. And then nothing. Never heard the name again.

It indicates the namespace where Override exists, which in this case is root level. \Namespace\Class is how namespaces in PHP work. If no \ is specified, it assumes Override is in the same namespace as the class it is being used in, and it would thus fail because it isn't.

Two Tier Architectures Are Anachronistic [video]
ha, that's a good one! Nobody. Here's an example of why that won't happen from another post awhile back:

> The NSA has built a surveillance network that has the capacity to reach roughly 75% of all U.S. Internet traffic.

> An internal NSA audit from May 2012 identified 2776 incidents i.e. violations of the rules or court orders for surveillance of Americans and foreign targets in the U.S. in the period from April 2011 through March 2012, while U.S. officials stressed that any mistakes are not intentional.

> The FISA Court that is supposed to provide critical oversight of the U.S. government's vast spying programs has limited ability to do so and.

> A legal opinion declassified on August 21, 2013, revealed that the NSA intercepted for three years as many as 56,000 electronic communications a year of Americans not suspected of having links to terrorism, before FISA court that oversees surveillance found the operation unconstitutional in 2011.

This part right here:

> it must trust the government to report when it improperly spies on Americans

The courts told them to watch themselves and to self incriminate if they do crimez. An honor system. Which naturally, they did not snitch on themselves to the courts, because why would they.

Are bystanders typical in your bedroom? As a part of society I’ve never once been harmed by anyone’s sexual intercourse, even folks who invite bystanders. I think only societies that take great interest in conformity to some norm to the extent they feel the need to be angry about someone else’s nonconformity reap harm from private thought and activity. In that case I think the harm starts with society and ends with the individual rather than the individual harming society.

I think many designs in tech have two states between which they oscillate. We don't go back exactly to the same thing, we do improve on things, but things are very similar to the way they were done 20-30 years ago (or 40 in this case)
I agree, IF you change the perspective, so it's keep Europe able to fly stuff into space as needed, then Ariane 5 is a great program.

It's just not true that it's cheap at launching stuff into space, it's not true that it's the most successful, etc.

It's WAY cheaper than the SLS, so clearly Europe isn't as bad off as America is when it comes to a national/govt launch system.

I'm not trying to put Ariane 5/6 down, I'm merely saying, Ariane 5 is not the most successful program in the world to send stuff to space. Space X currently has that crown, but I'm sure eventually someone else will figure out how to do it better. Maybe not in my lifetime. NASA used to be the leader here, then ULA, now SpaceX. Maybe China or India will be next? I have no idea.

The Dutch East India Company definitely did things that are well in the genocide category, the British East India company did things that - while not on that level of evil - can only be described as ruthlessly atrocious.

Pretty much all leading heads of IG Farben were in one way or another dinked (but not procecuted bc of political reasons) for their part in the Holocaust.

Then we have the Kiobel vs Royal Dutch Petroleum Co. case, where a number of petroleum companies ("allegedly") instigated the Nigarian government to crush protests.

It all depends on your definition of "trying to commit [atrocity]", to me personally, instigating and happily lending a hand are both morally deplorable. So in the context of this thread, I'd much rather have the instigater have that power than a helper. At least I have some say in what the government does... I hope?
Nice!

Private sector works as soon as there is demand, but the problem is that its not able to traverse large "deserts" towards new technologies. The state is better at long range exploration of not "colonizeable" capabilities pushing roots and tendrils over the deserts and mountains into new valleys.

You can't abstract away risk, you can't abstract away complexity. You can either reduce, increase or shuffle them. Shuffling with layers of abstraction is the manager class preferred approach. Which leads to tech stacks of the type - "only me and god knew in the beginning what was going on, now only god knows"
I find it pretty funny when designers have it in their mandate to make a number look as cool as possible.

You see it on dashboards or all kinds of things like this.

I think it would be a good design challenge. Make a decimal number look cool. No other constraints.
I think that's two different, but related problems.

"what should we build?" is a different problem from "what do you think we should be building?" - the first is a customer discovery problem (what do our customers think they need?), the second is a communication problem (what does our manager want us to build?).

The related bit is that humans are bad at communicating and we need to spend a lot of effort deciphering ambiguous human waffle into precise program code.

It zoomed into a two block area with a single flower shop even though many others exist outside of that area.

>This is like saying people who’ve been oppressed all their lives don’t care about being oppressed because they’ve never known another life.

Which is also correct. They're conditioned to consider it "normal", e.g. victims of abuse.
