micro-USB requires a different extended connector for 3.0 [1], and I don't think there is a mini-USB 3.0. USB-A is generally coded with a different color and the extra pins are clearly visible [2], especially when you hold a 2.0 cable

Visitors mainly come social media sites or other aggregation sites and Google. Your analysis about their model is right. They even are mentioned in the top Urban Dictionary definition of clickbait [1] [1] https://www.urbandiction

it's an old and widely accepted truism. I don't know how much formal research had been done into it.

They don't need to police it, they need to give the board etc. the proper incentives to do business legally because they will be hurt financially if the business doesn't. The policing is still done by the government agencies.

Obviously it's not feasible to have every parking spot pull 13KW, they would need to coordinate to manage load. The core thing is that you're assuming that every parked car arrives in the evening with near-zero charge and needs to

We're not talking about Tesla Superchargers here, but things that let you charge overnight. On the scale of civil construction, it doesn't seem to be more difficult than highways, street lighting, sewers, etc.

Considering that you can (slowly) charge an EV even with a normal socket, this overnight road trip problem seems vastly overstated to me. A socket and cable reel you should be able to scrounge up anywhere you can reach on asphalted roads.

In a purely electric car world, all street parking will have charger stations like they would have analog parking meters a few decades ago. In my western European city of ~100k people there's hundreds of such spots already. Capacity is

It can just as well be an explanation why climate models have been pretty consistently under-estimating warming of time though.

It seems unlikely that fish are more influential than earth rotation, sun etc. The energy difference is very large.

by dtech 5y ago
So far over time the climate has been warming faster and there have been more problems consistently than the median of models up to that point predicted, so "And that's played out already" is very wrong.

I'm not sure how it's with other banks, but on both my NL banks revoking the permission is 2 clicks away. If there is an issue that escalates to the need to partially withhold payment, that is the least of your hurdles in NL since

The added transmission, overall prevalence, and longer and more severe resulting sicknesses make mutation more likely in un-vaccinated populations by several order of magnitude.

HTTP 1.1 is an old protocol, over time new requirements made modifications necessary, some things fell out of use, and some changes turned out to be mistakes. That it's text-based without using doesn't help The basis is simple, bu

http 2 and 3 have much stricter defined binary formats. JSON would be a step back in terms of spec and performance.

It's the reason why it took over a decade [1]. Also why some Scala 2 features were removed, they couldn't prove soundness. Haven't seen anything regarding generics there though. [1] https://www.scala-lang.org/

You're confusing safety with stability. Reflection is necessarily unsafe, but not necessarily unstable. You just need to take care about keeping within bounds of guaranteed behavior. E.g. in Java calling a method through reflection is

I wouldn't say M1 max is another leap. It's mostly scaling for linear performance gains.

This might have been valid in 00's Java/C#. However, most modern languages and even Java 16+ have good Enum support and exhaustiveness checks, making them very convenient and safe to express a limited set of possible values. In

No. Reflection is a program accessing or modifying its own program structure. There's not need for it to be unstable, languages like Lisp, Java and I assume C# have clearly defined semantics for it.

You severely overestimate what the user will do. Android has these tools built-in, but they are hardly used. It's similar to how crappy drivers causing BSODs were for a large part responsible for the "Windows is a crappy unstable
