Some modern airports REQUIRE pilots to use auto landing if their plane supports it. I know because I have a friend who is a commercial pilot and they don't like flying those routes because it is boring. Most airports let the pilots fly

Showering abuse on a female bot still demonstrates deep misogyny imo, even if there is no victim in that case.

Monzo is really good but I think it's unfair to characterise the high street banks as dinosaurs that never innovate. They almost all have phone apps that let you instantly send money to other people, often straight from your Contacts.

I've worked in both, I find bureaucracy is roughly proportional to the seriousness of the work. Serious work - Law, Healthcare, Finance etc are very bureaucratic regardless of whether it's the private or public sector. Public sect

Sigint isn't illegal it's just inadmissible in court

Can you explain why there is anything untoward about Parallel Construction? How else are you meant to prosecute cases in court? You need admissable evidence, and sigint is usually not admissable.

Culturally, I've noticed Germans will absolutely not cross before the green man, even if there are no cars. In the UK it is very common to cross even if the man is red. I've been in walking conversations with continental Europeans

I have an internal REST API (Tomcat server) on a Windows network that uses the WAFFLE library. I am interested to know whether HN thinks this is considered secure?

Do you have some example searches? I believe you, just never seen it myself. Perhaps I switched some obscure setting on years ago.

(everything is done in simulators, you don't physically build anything) Basically you start with only NAND gates available. Using this you have to connect together inputs/outputs etc to make NOT, AND, OR, XOR gates. Then you use t

Can you link to evidence of it being faster, and expand on what you mean by "more backend features"? I believe you, I just can't find evidence online. My application is not that big, around 10 million text files, but I would

In a similar vein, I highly recommend the nand2tetris online course. You begin by combining electrical logic gates into gradually more complex chips, then assemble the components of a computer, write an assembler, then a compiler for a high

What aspects does Xapian beat Lucene at?

I'm not suggesting its anything other than a ridiculous and meaningless thing to write, I was just saying that both GDP and AUM are measured in the same units (USD). Apparently several people decided this fact was necessary to downvote
