To you, there's no reason. To others, there is. That by itself shows the need for discussion (where either side ought to listen to the other). With respect to the argument of putting the plane rests in a museum: I do not see how that

The associated paper abstract claims to have broken sudo by rowhammering register values. It stands to reason that these mitigations thwart the found attacks - the commit message points to the paper as the reason for these mitigations, afte

The unstated allegation is that they weren't hired for a warm endorsement, but to assuage the regulator and the public. If that were true, you could expect certain things, such as casting blame towards folks who have left for company c

The article is about menus, not ordering. Physical menus can include photos and be easy to navigate. Most physical menus have separate sections for appetizer, side dishes, main course, etc. It's possible to incorporate ordering online

This. If you're forcing me to look at your menu on my tiny screen, optimise for that. Do !not! optimize for fricking print when you're not going to give me the printed version! Grrrrrmbl.

I have no special insider knowledge. I reckoned it could be turn-around time coupled with needs. A quick google suggests that in optimal conditions (all parts available), it would take minimum of 2 months to assemble a large airliner plane.

If you cancel, you'll have to place an order elsewhere and end up at the back of their log. Since there isn't that much competition, this means Airbus. Moreover: this also means introducing another brand of aircraft into your fle

First, as sibling comment stated: unclear. A thought-to-exist correlation was shown to be spurious. Second: in my complete and utter layman's view, it is far more likely that the causation is the other way around. That is: dementia cou

Not as far as I know. Much more problematic was the fact that replication is very hard to publish. That's because either you more or less confirm previous findings and therefore contribute little to the scientific record (or so reviewe
