What I’m struggling with is that what was done is not illegal in its self. It’s not necessarily suspicious in itself (from the perspective of a single dev working on tasks), unless you assume fraud. Of course we know fraud occurred so we ca

Does anyone know how they track the position of the communication satellites? I assume they use GPS for the users position, the gyro and accelerometer for device orientation, and then periodically load and update the LEO sat paths on the de

I think it is important to remember the context of the discussion. I think I it is completely reasonable, and not odd at all, to have a utilitarian view of science, when you are talking about spending $100 Billion .

I am going to assume you made the comment from position of ignorance on how they executed the stunt. They used a very very large airbrake to slow the aircraft down after pitching down into a near vertical dive and letting prop windmill. The

This (the crash, not the revocations) might be the worst, most embarrassing outcome for the FAA. Had the stunt gone completely right they could have just put the hammer down on the pilots and said "it could have gone wrong and people

Serious question, are you really asking for examples of broken sites? Have you never used a site that was broken, took forever to do something simple, or was otherwise not acting as expected? Just this week the LMS our company uses accident

I would highly discourage including a keyboard or mouse. If you are already spending $2700 on a VR computer I suspect you already have a keyboard or mouse you prefer or want to invest in a setup of your choice. No point in creating eWaste t

I don't know if I would agree. The fact that growth is stopping is more damaging to share price than the actual material impact of the growth stoppage, until the price corrects. I think there is a good chance Meta is not bluffing. It c

Vanilla has always been able to do what jQuery can, otherwise jQuery wouldn't exist. It all depends on what your threshold for abstraction and verbosity is. That is going to depend on what you are doing and who you are.
