The title of the submission no longer seems to refer directly to the content of the article. If the feeling is that the article is dumbed down too much (as some of the comments suggest), could the URL also be changed? Maybe the UKRI press r

I don't know anything about car design, but always assaumed that crumple zones mostly protected passengers rather than pedestrians. Is that not the case?

Where is this imaginary line between “ok to be offended” and “not ok to be offended”? Who decides where that line is? If you can trivially avoid even the risk of offending someone — especially in a professional context — then why wouldn’t y

There is an online-only supermarket called Ocado here in the UK. They do pretty much what you describe.

In GCSE Chemistry (taught to 15-16ish year olds), we were taught that the first shell contained two electrons, and subsequent shells contained 8 (up to the final, which may contain fewer). Then, after GCSEs, during A-levels, we were told (b

I never got over being lied to about electron shells and the 2-8-8 "rule".

Still sounds pretty mysterious to me. This kind of event is rare, and the source of the interference is (currently) a mystery. I’d love to pop by with a HackRF and directional antenna if I lived anywhere near-by!

I don’t think it’s unfair to call it a drop in replacement, though the current limitations should perhaps be caveated a little more clearly. I think calling it a drop in replacement highlights that the aim of Zluda is to not require recompi

I'm 99.9% sure OP the author didn't mean that people should be fired for being old. I agree that the phrasing is open to misinterpretation, but I read it as "plain-old not doing a great job"

The way the the images move during evolulution kinda reminds me of worms or maggots wriggling around in soil.

"Boston Dynamics' Spot Robot Now has an Arm" may be a better title? My initial thought was that they'd strapped an assault rifle to him.`

Woah. I’ve used pandas a fair amount and had no idea about this. Thank you!

Good spot! AFAIK Ubuntu under WSL(2) uses the same update repository as a non-WSL variants, so you shouldn't get different results.

I think this was just an example, really, but I know some projects have an external bug tracking tool to document customer-reported issues, and closed, employee only ones to discuss the issue internally.

Mostly sobbing into my hands and wondering how over half the voting population managed to get hoodwinked into thinking that any of this might be a good idea, with a good outcome.

The Ad Blocker situation on Safari is pretty poor. I've ended up with Ghostery, but really miss uBlock Origin.

I recently got the rOtring 600 Ballpoint, and have enjoyed it for similar reasons.

I agree with that. But given the context -- an experimental build targetting a new SoC, I wouldn't personally dispute the claim that it's running on an M1 machine. If the tweet was claiming that it was ready to go for general use

Why's that? If I netboot Linux on my desktop PC, is it not running "on" my desktop PC? Is the CPU/SoC not the thing on which then operating system is running?

This might be a dumb question, but is there any information out there about how much official monitoring goes on for amateur bands (and other bands, for that matter)? Are there strategically placed logging stations that allow triangulation

I'm a big fan of Signal and have been encouraging friends and family to use it. That said, I (like others) am a bit concerned about the lack of updates to Signal-Server ( https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-Server&#

I'd imagine that Signal's increase in popularity is overwhelmingly due to WhatsApp's recent changes to their privacy policy rather than Parler's shutdown. More of my contacts have joined Signal in the last week than th

"Everyday" users shouldn't have to edit the registry in order to install an app, either. Being no worse than Windows doesn't make it good.

Sometimes, rather than giving me a "friendly" warning that the app is unsigned, I get and exception with a stack trace, with: Termination Reason: Namespace CODESIGNING, Code 0x1 I can (re)sign the application with:

I guess it's quite a difficult thing to communicate without encouraging users to click on ads, which presumably would get them in hot water with the ad networks.
