Companies going bust should have their IP (code, design, patents etc) transferred to FOSS licenses automatically; at least here going bust is a strain on the tax payer, so give it back to the tax payer. Then someone else can pick this up and potentially fix these devices. Or at the least it’s good for the world to have the tech open to be studied.

No, you're completely missing what is happening here. Paying the damages just removes the government's ability to demand a trial _by jury_. The trial is still proceeding with exactly the same charges, it will just be decided by a judge - like how every other antitrust case over the past 40 years has been.

I don't like that, it's not good practice.

One should give links to original sources, i.e. https://kernel.org as far as Linux is concerned. Example: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/lin...

Even if git guarantees that the content is the same (if someone bothers to verify that the SHA-1 is the same and we exclude the possibility of a SHA-1 collision in git, which is yet to be demonstrated).

kernel.org existed before github.
That's you're pedantically language-lawyering my post while not engaging with the far greater falsehood that the previous poster was perpetuating is not a good look.

And the reality is Mozilla can always block any extension they want. They can just change the Firefox source code. It doesn't matter what functionality does or doesn't exist now or what the policy they do or don't have – everything can always be changed. That's true for almost anything.

So what they "could do" is a complete distraction in the first place because the "could do" anything. What they ARE doing matters.

I would expect the New York Times film reviewer to be able to deliver a review that would give the average Friday night young cinema goer a good idea if a film is worth their time, even if they aren't a film snob

From my readings of many film reviews lately, a lot of them really talk down towards people who are not as into cinema as they are
A Ford Pinto in 1971 was $1,919 which is $15,000 in today's dollars.

A Yugo GV in 1984 was $3,990 which is $12,000 in today's dollars.

A Chevy Spark in 2013 was $12,995 which is over $17,000 in today's dollars.

Car companies can keep up with US regulations at about the $15,000 price point. Below that is losing money.

A Nissan Versa or Mitsubishi Mirage in 2024 cost about $16,000 which is right in line with the Ford, the Yugo, and the Chevy econo-rides of the past.

$3K-$4K wouldn't build you a crash regulation compliant unibody shell, much less a full car. If a major maker went balls out to build cheap and still be legal to sell in the US, they might be able to get the price down to $10K-$12K and still break even, but below that is a fantasy. Physics simply will not bend any further.
Some (most?) of the folks who hang out here have been exposed to these type of contents for decades. For example, I started out reading Byte, Creative Computing, Dr Dobb's Journal, Compute!, old copies of the Whole Earth Catalog, etc among others, voraciously when I was a teen.

> Do I bring the water to the boil with the eggs already in the pan, then count from when it reaches the boil?

Safest, most fool-proof method: bring the water to a boil, kill the heat, gently lower the eggs into the water and cover. Remove at your preferred time and transfer to an ice bath.

Water boils at a consistently precise temperature (at a given altitude). If you're cooking indoors, you probably also have a somewhat-stable air temperature around the pot. This means the heat curve from ~100°C is remarkably stable across boilings. Given an egg sets between 63°C (whites thicken) and 73°C (yolk cooks), you will always--eventually--wind up with a hard-boiled egg. (You're also cooking in still water, which is obviously less violent.)

There are various guides online for this, but it's an easy-enough expermient to pull one out every minute from ~3 minutes to 15. (Presumably over several days. But not a bad brunch set-up. And you already have an ice bath for the wine!)

> For fried eggs in my stainless steel pan

Steel-clad pans aren't all steel, they're aluminium clad in steel. That means you can't get the steel safely to the ripping-hot temperatures that keep the albumen from binding to the iron.

Try soft scrambling them in a carbon-steel wok.

I once plugged a USB type B connector into an external hard drive blind (it was dark) and was rewarded with a zap and a dead hard drive. The connector went in the wrong way without any particular force - either the jack or the connector must have been a bit looser than standard.

The drive was fine once I took it out of the enclosure, fortunately.

This presupposes an awful lot. If it were truly a risk free magic wand you could wave, then I could see your point.

But none of the current options are risk free, and I doubt this one will be. They all have risks, side effects, and probably the chance of failure. And then the question is how low of a risk is acceptable to restore a child's hearing. These are people who would live an otherwise healthy and normal life, and they'd grow up in an accepting deaf family which is likely already plugged into a community. I can't imagine how it would feel to have a serious side effect (or worse) impact your child when you know they could have gone without that procedure and lived a happy, fulfilling life. But I also understand the desire to give your child every possible opportunity.

All of that is to say, I think it is reductive to compare this to child abuse or FGM. There's no right decision, and parents absolutely will need to make a difficult choice, hopefully prioritizing their child's safety and future above all else.

Exactly, the majority of the strangers that end up talking to me turn out to be total weirdos. Apparently something about the way I carry myself seems to paint me as a target.

So, I've taken to wearing earphones to signal I'm not interested in talking, sometimes I'm not even actually listening to anything, most of the time the volume is low enough that I can hear everything just fine. I'll even intentionally pull my phone out and try to look like I'm doing something on it to signal my disinterest.

On the other hand, if I see someone I wouldn't mind speaking to, like if someone looks like they have a question, they need help or if they are wearing/doing something interesting, I won't do any of that and may strike up a conversation myself.

This idea reminds me of that meme template of the guy standing in a corner at a party thinking "they don't know that I..." while everyone else is busy enjoying themselves.

Pre-smartphone I'd probably be using an mp3 player or playing on a handhold console and always carrying a book to read (or appear to read).

The examples of public transport are especially odd, the very purpose of being on transport is that you would rather be somewhere else, why would they interact with strangers? I remember the pre-smartphone world, people still didn't regularly engage in casual conversation with strangers on public transport, they read, listened to mp3 players, played on handheld consoles, or most often, just napped.
Maybe you want to re-confirm that. In the late 2000s Sony Ericsson had a line of phones that had a focus on (then) high end integrated cameras called the C-Series, the C standing for Cybershot.

You're off on two points; number of shells and the mass of the shells.

First, the number of shells is finite. This actually gives us one of the points where we can test this theory:

Namely, if there are discrete shells, their effect on gravitational lensing will introduce artifacts that we may be able to detect. We would observe the edge of a shell as a shearing zone in the gravitational lensing around a massive structure, where the amount of lensing jumps dramatically, significantly magnifying the cosmic background in the shear zone. These would look like rings around gravitational lensing sources.

This discrete lensing artifact - these rings that might appears - could let us reject some dark matter theories, which predict smoother lensing with no rings.

Second the shells themselves do not have positive or negative mass. They have density functions which are a sum of a delta distribution and the derivative of a delta distribution. On the shell singularity itself, the density function breaks down - from being a function into being a distribution. So we can't say it's positive or negative mass - it's a singularity without any mass.

The reason we invoke positive and negative shells is because we can think of distributions as limits of ordinary functions. We can think of the topological defect shell -as if- it was the limit of a pair of positive and negative physical mass shells of positive thickness as they merged together into a shell of zero thickness. In the limit, there is no longer any externally observable mass at any enclosed radius. There's no longer any finite mass density function that properly describes the singular shell's density - the density has become a distribution.

Trainings are a wholy different cup of tea. I do highly technical trainings, that people pay a lot [1] to attend, and sometimes I really can't help some participants. No, you can't run docker containers on your phone. Laptop is required, it was on the website and stated in the email you received two weeks ago. Or: No you see "file not found" means you need to run this command from another directory. Yes, you type "cd" to go there. No, the script won't work without Python installed, we covered this on a slide two hours ago. Wait how did you solve the last four exercises which used Python too? Oh, this is a work computer and you don't have admin rights to install anything? Right, your admin is sleeping now because of timezone differences. Uhh let's try to find a portable installer.

Meanwhile, the second half of the room finished everything, and that one guy way ahead works though an exercise I didn't even cover so far. But I just smile and try to help, because I'm a professional.

(sorry for venting)

[1] but not to me.
From what I can tell, I've built something similar, but a bit more niche, for industrial control and safety systems.

Though it lends itself to wider applications of state based behaviour.

It seems semi obvious to me this avenue is the path forward, not least because of the advantages that flow from having your specification as data, rather than dots on the page from a crappy narrative.

However, this approach does encounter some resistance because it is big work up front - you have to fully understand what you want to build, before you build it. It can look like little progress occurs for some time, but it all comes together much more quickly after specification is complete.
Take the subsidies away and the car is more. Like a Tesla getting $7.5K in EV rebates, Chinese EVs are also subsidized. That Chinese BYD Dolphin, $13,000 in China is $30,000 sold outside of China. Let's assume Chinese are getting a discount and everyone else is paying a penalty, that puts the real price somewhere around $22,000.

That $22,000 vehicle is comparable to a Hyundai Kona in the US for $25,000 (not eligible for US EV rebates so Hyundai cut the sticker price dramatically) or the Chevy Equinox for about the same after rebate.

As you can see, it's not really the difference the headlines make it out to be.

No, pointing out that your claims are conceptually false is a fine look.

It's not about things Mozilla could theoretically do to block you, it's that they require you to proactively get their permission to run an extension (in a prod version of the browser on an ongoing basis, which I think is reasonable table stakes). Here's their official docs for self-distribution, i.e. not using the AMO at all: https://extensionworkshop.com/documentation/publish/submitti... Notice that step 1 starts with giving Mozilla your extension to approve of, step 4 goes so far as to say that if your extension doesn't pass their checks then

> The message informs you of what failed. You cannot continue. Address these issues and return to step 1.

then step 7 is make sure Mozilla reviewers can read your source code, step 9 is wait for them to get back to you, and step 13 is download the XPI that Mozilla has approved to be allowed to run in their browser.

So yes, you absolutely need Mozilla's approval to publish an extension, even if you self-publish the XPI after they've blessed it. If they do not perform the action of signing it, they don't need to change any source code, it won't install. It may be true that in this case they have given that approval, but that doesn't invalidate the general point, and this is a fundamental restriction, not "language-lawyering".

I was doing some reading about the Mustang aircraft in WW2 and found about that they had V12 engines with 1000 to 2000 horsepower. But modern aerobatic aircraft only have around 300 to 500 horsepower. I was wondering if it would be possible to build a custom aircraft with 2 supercharged Corvette engines (around 700 to 800 horsepower each) and found this post on aviation stack exchange.

I suppose you're getting downvoted because there's just no simple answer, except that it can't be that ?

If you push that to it's logical conclusion, the whole marketing angle around sport falls apart (you can sell aspiration and lifestyles, you can't for drugs), and if there's no money left, no professionals will be left as well, and we end up with Guinness book record types of chalenges.

It's the same reason all major sports have seemingly sily rules or performance limitations (cycling and the bike bans are my favorite ones), you need to care about the business side to keep a sport alive
I mean, it's obviously different if you're somewhere that the news has directly actionable info. Just like how someone who doesn't otherwise care about the news will probably keep track of weather news during storm season in their area.
