"Cutting straight to the case, Wascher was not punished in any way."

Have to appreciate a writer who doesn't force you to read until the very end of their piece in order to get the ending of the story.
For example,

"You can also enter the IP address of the FRITZ!Box or the emergency IP.

The preset IP address is: http://192.168.178.1

The emergency IP address is: http://169.254.1.1"

Typing "fritz.box" into a browser is useless unless one already has an internet connection.

If it's a remote DNS query then is that really "internal networking".

Looks like there's an ad for NFTs at fritz.box along with some links to Javascript files and nothing else. No content. I think I'd rather just use a local address.
If your cells are not dividing correctly so much so that the skin cell replication is disrupted then your skin as one of the largest organs your body has will replicate the cancer very very fast. But lets call it what it really is in most cases, the protein of cells being replaced by glyphosphates. Your body not producing enough enzymes, chlorine dioxide, to replace the glypohsphate protein which is causing uncontrollable cell division with not enough healthy proteins through anaerobic means e.g exercise, replacing them fast enough. Usually hiding in fat or muscle cells. Your body is so fargone if you have melanoma even with strict diet change and a very careful and strict exercise regiment its already too late since your doctor will be pumping you full of chemotherapy/poison to kill the cancer, killing you in the process.

> How often do you see people describe that kind of passion for Python?

It's part of modern science/technology culture to indiscriminately hate the most widespread things.

Personally, I find Python simply amazing and delightful to work with. And I consider its syntax, especially semantic indentation which eliminates so much visual noise, to be the best among all languages that ever achieved widespread adoption.

It's not one. There's a directive for connected vehicles produced after 2022 to be equipped with ISA, but it's a limiter, and doesn't do what GP is saying. You can always deactivate it, and you can also go past the limit if you push the accelerator, if going past the limit helps go past a truck or help for a dangerous situation.

Well, we're definitely seeing more interest in unions and work/life balance among younger generations now, and more people pushing back on the insanity of job applications, the attempts to force them to return to the office, etc. There's a growing attitude from millennials and younger that work shouldn't define your entire life, and that being paid a pittance to work in poor conditions while the bosses reap huge salaries isn't a justifiable setup for work.

Tech was the one exception to this, with a lot of folks in this industry seeing labour movements as irrelevant and having more of 'every man for themself' attitude brought on by high levels of compensation and cushy working conditions.

But that may definitely change now. We all got too complacent due to the startup and tech industry bubble, and the insane benefits this industry offered, and thought we were irreplaceable as a result. Now things are looking a bit more grim, it feels like this attitude is going to die down a lot more.

They are governing according to the will of the people (to some degree). Fact is that outside the western intelligentsia nobody really gives a shit about climate change and why would they? For people without children, certainly it is not their problem. The world's resources are plenty enough for this generation and even the next. Everyone else would be stupid to sacrifice their own wealth for an absolutely minuscule chance of improvement without an enforcible promise that their neighbours will do the same. They will just end up doing it all for nothing. It's a typical tragedy-of-the-commons dilemma.
Accurate engineering estimates don't have good product/market fit.

You can't get management sign-off on a project that you accurately state will take 4 years, so you will instead just have to maintain and extend the old solution. That's the case where there's no competition.

In a competitive market for engineering estimates, the low estimator will tend to win the bid.

Meanwhile, you'll experience high turnover in your engineers, because you rightly want to only do maintenance, and management doesn't think that you need to pay high salaries to keep the knowledge in house.

So management doesn't want to fund projects with accurate estimates, and engineers don't want to give accurately high estimates for projects they want to undertake.
Which was not very useful.

The integral equations of Maxwell, which few know today, are much more generally applicable and actually easier to understand.

The differential equations of Heaviside are valid only when certain restrictions about continuity are true. Moreover, the meanings of curl and divergence are hard to understand otherwise than by deriving them from the integrals over curves and surfaces used in the original equations of Maxwell, which are also necessary to determine how to handle discontinuities.

The differential form of the equations looks prettier on paper due to a simpler notation, but it is less helpful for understanding and for solving practical problems than the integral form.

In my opinion, it is a serious mistake that almost all manuals show the equations of Maxwell in the Heaviside form, instead of showing them in their original form. This is one of the main reasons why they are hard to understand for many.

Most people are not going to run into most of those, whether or not they use Python. They are niches. Sure, Python is more widespread, but it's still only one of many.

"Nobody" uses Python for 2D games. "Nobody" uses Ruby either, but there's Dragonruby (write once, deploy to Windows, Mac, Linux, Web Assembly, iOS, Android, Nintendo Switch, XBOX One, and PS4).

There's interop for many other programming languages, including several options for embedding Python code in Ruby (and the reverse). I've come across Ruby embedded more places than I've come across embedded Python (the number of companies I've come across both are in the single digits).

But ultimately it doesn't matter. If you pick jobs based on currently used languages rather than what you want to work on, you're painting yourself into a corner with either language.

No it isn't.

Sensor-based wipers fail to predict rain regularly. I discussed this topic recently with a friend, her Mercedes has the same problem and it does have a sensor.

That's a valid point. But it remains to be seen how much of a problem this is. Certainly other manufacturers (Volkswagen ID.4 for example) cramp many more buttons on the steering wheel.

Are there distros for which this is fixed out of the box already? About 20 years ago we were writing a cross-platform application which required relaltively low latencies (2-5mSec IIRC) for audio with some of the RME interfaces. On Windows (with ASIO) and MacOS (don't remember) this basically just worked and we'd only have to take care not to run too much other heavy bandwith applications at the same time. On any of the *nixes out there it was completely hit or miss. Even after the struggle to get the correct drivers working, it required a myriad of seemingly obscure tweaks and kernel builds only to result in a system which was usually rather unstable at best. Plus the realization that it would be pretty much impossible to ship this because it would require the other party to also apply similar tweaks specific to their distro. I would have thought 20 years would be enough to mature this especially in major distros like Ubuntu but appaprently that is not the case?

I think the problem is that once a set of rules is in place then people will try to entrench them within those rules for their own benefit (social, monetary etc). Once that happens there isn't a good way to break those entrenchments, so you need to find another frontier or niche to flourish (or create a revolution). This applies to government, businesses, and even regular social interactions.

At the heart of it is that people need to feel like they can accomplish something before they even try. There needs to be enough low-hanging fruit for people to grab onto to start the journey. This builds them up more and more. Eventually they do to things that, at first, seemed impossible.

> Maxwell's equations are wrong and built on a lack of understanding.

I'm not going to bother attempting a wall of text which ends with an obviously wrong conclusion.
OK, I do not understand prof.Dyson's argument at all.

"This does not mean that an electric field-strength can be measured with the square-root of a calorimeter. It means that an electric field-strength is an abstract quantity, incommensurable with any quantities that we can measure directly."

Electric field-strength is measurable no less directly than energy, it is a force experienced by a unit charge placed within the electric field.
With all due respect to 3Blue1Brown, there are limits to wjat you can explain with statistics. Medicine applied on the individual pevel is one of those cases, because its purpose is to optimize the outcome for the individual.

A pandemic is different, there the goal is to optimize the outcome for the population.

Applying the latter to the former is at the very least cynical. The opposite is what got us anti-mask and anti-vaxxers.

Also, especially with cancer, people tend to be so affraid of the diagnosis, they look for excuses to not be examined. As if cancer onpy pops up when it is found or something. Which is stupid, if ypu have cancer you want to know as early as possible.

They have better footprints and usually more fleshed out symbols that are more visually descriptive. Component Search Engine has more but I've had a few erroneous footprints fall through and they're usually larger or missing things like courtyards etc.

UL also has better 3D models, and more often.

Also, UL often has human-verified or -engineered footprints for more exotic pieces, and splits out things like VDD/VSS into multi-unit symbols unlike CSE. Helps with organizing complex schematics.

The advice I often see is "make all your own footprints" which I agree is a good skill to have but when you're trying to quickly prototype a board and get something done it's not really feasible or ergonomic in Kicad. The amount of different windows you have to go through to populate e.g. mouser/digikey/arrow part numbers to get a usable BOM export is tedious work.

I actually wrote a chrome plugin that scrapes UL and mouser for all of the information then loads it into an existing Kicad symbol library with the models. Took some effort but for some reason this isn't a standardized thing which is a nightmare.
