You're completely ignoring the nature of the risk. It's one thing to accept a risk of death because it's intrinsic to a noble job. It's a whole other thing to accept a totally avoidable risk that's only introduced d

If you don't even know what that would mean then it's premature to declare that nothing works that way. Understanding the meaning is a prerequisite for that. In this case, it may help to understand that e.g. border control enforce

Isn't this the exact kind of scenario where you'd hope someone from above (like, idk, the president) would block the launch? Not that I expect that to happen, but worth keeping in mind in case something horrible happens. NASA woul

But that was exactly the point I was responding to, no? If NASA was fine with skipping the astronauts, then they would just send it unmanned, not find a random volunteer.

What I don't get is why the heck are the astronauts willing to risk their lives on something they must know by now is so dangerous? Is it really better to risk death than to risk getting fired?

Note on Windows you can disable the touch device and it goes back to the old density. Don't know if Macs support it.

Thanks, yeah, I was worried that might be the case. Given how complicated these features sound, it makes me wonder if they're gonna finish before the decade is over...

Are all commercial uses illegal or only those that display your likeness?

by dataflow 6mo ago
That much I'm aware, but that's just about feature availability. I was wondering how far the implementations have progressed internally, despite the features being unavailable.

If one power bank has independent probability p of failure, then n of them have probability 1 - (1 - p)^n of failure. What you're saying is equivalent to claiming that this quantity is somehow independent of n.

Depends on where you're coming from, but some people would expect it to enforce that the pointer is non-null, then proceed. Which would actually give you a guaranteed crash in case it is null. But that's not what it does in C++, a

by dataflow 6mo ago
You started using it because it had that capability I imagine, not because it is the default. You could easily just alias a command with the right flag if the capability was opt-in.

by dataflow 6mo ago
I agree, it's a great tool with a catastrophically wrong default that silently and unpredictably catches people off-guard. I've tried using ripgrep many times but have been burnt too many times and can never trust its search to be

> no punishment is too harsh, this should be considered the equivalent of lighting up a cigarette on a plane. Okay this is ridiculous. One is a fire hazard and the other is not. Do you really need the hyperbole here?

I've seen it everywhere except airplanes. I don't recall ever seeing it on planes. How often have you seen that? Do passengers or flight attendants do anything? How does the person respond?
