It's plausible deniability. Someone at Huawei presumably thinks there's a chance that exporting this to Europe might be a legal problem at some point in the future. So they added a restriction, enough for plausible deniability.

Sorry about the misunderstanding. It sounded like "so hard that even Boeing has problems", if you see what I mean.

"Europe must act fast to maintain investor interest, says KfW's Wintels" Wonder what that means. On the surface, it sounds as if Europe must act stably. Clearly he doesn't want instability, I wonder what "fast"

On a related note, I broke my IPv4 SMTP last year, which I would have thought would be a giant problem. It was a big problem, but actually small enough that it took me a day or two to notice. v6 has come a long way.

Huh. The Brother list for my printer says version ZB. My printer has version ZF 1.60. The Brother FAQ doesn't seem to explain how to interpret that ZB, or whether ZF is newer.

There's more. Traffic accidents, Americans have more than twice as many fatal accidents as Europeans and 3-4 times as many as France/Finland/…, and the age of people dying in traffic pulls down the overall average. And of cou

"If Boeing can't do it, it must be hard", is that what you're saying? Are you implying that Boeing is better at building aircraft than Airbus (or really anyone else)?

Yes. But how bad? AIUI the way it's done is more or less the best that can be done with old video hardware, like mine and like the Amiga. It could be horrible in principle, but actually isn't.

I don't see why? If your video output is plain old RGB (like the Amiga hardware), then an unmodified decoder will handle new files without a problem. You only need a new decoder if your video output can handle more vivid colours than R

We would need a new media type. But the actual new features don't need one, because the news don't break compatibility. https://svgees.us/blog/img/revoy-cICP-bt.2020.png uses the new colour space. If y

He's saying that in 25 years, you used only the LC and HE profiles, and didn't encounter TwinVQ even once. I looked at my thousand-odd MPEG-4 files. They're overwhelmingly AAC LC, a little bit of AAC LC SBR, no TwinVQ at all

The article implies, without stating it directly, that the power from completion to 2040 is sold before the plant is built. That implies that someone enters into contract to sell power at specified terms before the production cost is known.

You just need to give advance warning, and perhaps pick up the cash at a big branch where the bank has good security. This isn't difficult.

I hope the poster will learn about transactions at some point. Postgres even lets you alter the schema within a transaction. What I learned, once upon a time, is that with a database, you shouldn't delete data you want to keep. If you

https://archive.is/qfT1p I think it's saying that exporters increasingly regard the dollar as unstable/unreliable. Not suitable for use in a contract that specifies payment in 30 days.

Standards do require that. Someone has to show up at the right meetings and conferences, and it's often necessary to contribute code too. "Build it and they will come" doesn't work for products, and it doesn't work

Do you happen to know whether there's any conscription in Moscow and/or St. Petersburg? I mean, the Russians round up people from the periphery and send them off to help liberate Ukraine from the Ukrainians, but do you happen to k

Yes, so what change do you want, and are you going to act accordingly or just flail your arms meaninglessly? I assume that you, personally, have a car, or will buy one in your lifetime. Someone produces that car, and the production uses abo
