Coming in a bit late, I'm surprised I haven't seen anyone mention that if you run your own recursive dns server you can now have it download a copy of the DNS root zone (following RFC8806) if you are so inclined. See https:/

HTTP/2 multiplexing occurs inside the TLS boundary - there isn't a separate TLS stream for each sub-request. To demultiplex the requests you have to decrypt them first.

But in those cases you're missing the pawn that was promoted, so the location of the second dark-square bishop would be encoded in a 6-bit pawn slot rather than a 5-bit or base-33 bishop slot.

Bishops move on the diagonal and so can only stay on squares of their original color; you could thus encode the positions of the 4 bishops with 5 bits each instead of 6 each, saving a total of 4 bits, but this would preclude the use of the

Indeed. I've worked for several and my recollection is that cautions around both what you do and how you talk about things that may be sensitive to regulators (like antitrust, export controls, etc.,) were present in the annual mandato

Rockets are not LEGO. You can't just swap engines without a significant redesign of the rocket and ground support equipment to match. the RS-25 burns liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen; the BE-4 and Raptor burn methane and liquid oxygen

Either way it could be caused by failure to detect the emergency vehicle in time.

NHTSA is investigating whether Tesla's "autopilot" system has trouble detecting emergency vehicles with their lights flashing (and thus is more likely to hit them). Cruise might have a similar perception problem. See for in

It would make more sense to ensure that any sensitive technology on board is in a demisable subunit that will melt during reentry, so nobody has a chance to snag it after it reenters. This is also a safety consideration in satellite design

The reentry tech in ICBMs has nothing to do with satellite disposal, and, in fact, would make satellite disposal more hazardous (because it would mean the satellite would reenter in one piece rather than breaking up into smaller pieces that
