I think he means that given 2 people with the same amount of wealth, the one that borrows money can either buy a nicer house than you, or outbid you if you want the same house.

They're not really competing with Qualcomm though, since they don't sell their chips.

I didn't know there was a standard, but I have seen people do the switch before, and it looked inefficient. I guess I am a reversed-European, despite being right-handed. Fork in right hand and knife in left hand. It's always a b

Just shipping the product can be an issue if you use FedEx or similar. I don't think they allow >100wh, and even under this is a pain. Understandably, because they already have had a few crashes likely caused by battery fire.

You can get accuracy down to a few centimetres thanks to RTK Gnss. Most professional drones offer that now, though it is usually rather expensive.

It's probably because when faced between paying X for continuous support (where X is a big number) and "we will keep around a few computers for when it's a problem in 20 years", most companies are going to go with the la

It's not that odd, you spend the majority of your time at work. It's even more the case I assume to people at Google or other big multinational s. People there are much more likely not to be locals, and a lot of their colleagues a

How do you choose what to focus on with structured mentoring? It feels like current issues are too short term for this, unless it is a fundamental issue like no having enough domain knowledge. Googling and/or a quick discussion with

Not to defend him, but Nazi Germany in 1940 wasn't seen the same as it is now. For instance there were no extermination camps yet.

The problem is that the question was incoherent, just like the recent vote on weapons. This question was asked in a vacuum, and didn't take into account that it was in direct contradiction with current laws/agreements. Implementin

Would it be possible to eradicate it from the simian population as well since they are so similar? I assume it would highly depend on how it is eradicated in humans, but the difficulty in finding and treating them would be balanced by wha

It's not to protect market price, it's to protect the grid. You basically need to use as much power as you produce, if this becomes imbalanced, you damage the grid. In this case, demand is lower than supply, so either you decrea

To make it even worse, they were built using taxpayer's money, then sold for peanuts to those companies. It's corruption at an astronomical scale.

I am not sure I understand what you mean, but now (c++17) you can use an optional in this case.

Well I don't know about Guardia Civil, but Gendarmerie is a branch of the army and distinctly not of the police.

Have a look at Zig. That's what it's trying to achieve.

I don't really understand this dismissing about "culture fit". You describe it yourself as a frat house, which, I assume from the rest of your post, is not what you want. Work is not always only about output and skills, esp

My thought was that if there was a need for a reason to fire him, maybe he was in a place where there are some legal protections. Usually if you are in a place where you can't be fired at will, firing you for a bad reason is somethin

This certainly changes for open-source vs closed-source code, but for the latter it's not much of a problem. Either you use docker to have a stable environment, or you disable the Werror warning for this specific case.

Happy for you it turned out well, but the whole story is quite weird. It's obviously impossible and the timing is awful, so it has to be voluntary and there's something behind it. Did he need a reason to fire you? But that seems l

It's a bit of chicken and egg issue, and it will get better over time, but I think that right now, and probably in the next 2/3 years, it's going to be a big problem. I'm not saying that it's insurmontable, just tha

I think people often ignore charging issues, especially for city cars. Most people live in flats with street parking, there's absolutely no infrastructure existing at the moment to solve the problem that those people cannot charge at

They didn't, it happened over a forest. Many people seem to think it happened near a kindergarten, but that's not the case, it just happened that kindergarten-aged kids were playing in the area. You can find everything in the repo

The market is too young for this kind of process. Regulators around the world are smart enough to realise you can't expect drones to follow classic aeronautical design and safety processes right now, you would just stop dead the whol

There's no aerospace grade for most of the components. It's either custom made for the most critical/unique components, hobbyist parts (who else needs 4" propellers), or cots that are designed for other applications. Pre

Several reasons: - autonomy is in the 1/2h range for rotary-wing drones, you would need a lot of drones/operators throughout the race (it lasts 6h on average). - the cameras/lenses used are huge, in the tens of kg, you co

I think it does sometimes? At least for enterprise software. We use both C and C++ embedded as well as C++/Qt for the desktop control system, and we have no issue keeping to a sane subset of C++. There are clearly defined rules and cod

I think infrastructure plays a great role. An airport is expensive, but once you have it, you basically don't need infrastructure to link it to other airports. (I guess there's a few beacons, lights and ATC centres, but compared t
