Maybe I am missing something but since when are PID controllers "restricted/secret?" I think I get what you mean, and I guess my question is: is that a falsely held belief by amateurs or?

The real problem is not with estimation but with the management denial. I was asked to estimate a project I owned as a “green” lad. I offered 6 months with a real detailed plan and up to a year with some extras. Based on past rates we had e

Instead of replying in spirit the same message to various comments here, I generalized the skepticism in one. To people commenting that "experts had repeatedly suggested that it is unlikely to be a leak." Experts, that is people s

See my other "sibling" comment. As an owner/shareholder you have duties owed to you by Google. If a too good offer comes by, for instance, for one to buy Google: the offer has to be disclosed; and regardless if the founders

Well just to be complete there are enumerated duties to shareholders (the fiduciary ones): 1. Duty of Care 2. Duty of Loyalty 3. Duty of Disclosure 4. Duty of Confidentiality 5. Duty of Prudence 6. Duty of Good Faith You can start looking a

You mean that if you split a file you define another module when you declare it? That is only visible as a module at the level of declaration not beyond. Also note that modules are not per se compile units. Cf. See https://doc.ru

I think the author is unaware of a) how to create crates easily b) that workspaces exist to organize crates I wouldn't pick Go as an example of how to build a module system. Far from it. ML languages yes. Anyways, adding a single line

I mean yeah, because there is money around to repatriate. In the SBF case by the time anyone realizes what was happening the money was "gone." Trying to reply why it will be that easy in this case perhaps. N.B. they were just gra

You assume that those two bombings had an effect or sped up the surrender. They provingly did not. The decision was made to show a) force to USSR and the rest of the world b) explain the funds spent on creating nuclear weapons. They had bee

Disagree. If you are as an engineer make 10s-100s of millions or billions in some cases, you are worth every penny. Also the good engineers when they feel slighted go out and start a company relatively easily competing or changing the envir

Not true. Water is "burdened" by pile of rights, where using more water reduces future cost for big entities. Individual citizen consumption has nothing to do with prices, and their average usage is meaningless. States and large w

I think past hackernews comments and posts have proven that this is at least partially wrong. The drag is real. How many posts are there about duckduckgo -- in its golden days; that it was better and should be the default. How much people p

Disagree partly. Here we are preventing actively the natural circles of small fires in the lifecycle of a forest. We bring up that we need to introduce them at least in a controlled manner. Some people say no because xyz. Well these people

I think the OP argues -- and I agree -- that Engineers and their Managers -- especially their Managers, given how decision making works in the Bay Area, should be punished too. I don't see the issue: that is part of being an Engineer:

Well the whole argument here by a big section of comments -- if not the majority -- including Googlers is "they haven't found one in Sundar." I think finding a great CEO for the particular strategy and company is harder than

What banking sector? I think until the AT1 bond lawsuit gets resolved with a win for the bond holders, all but the biggest banks have serious liquidity issues. There is not going to be a sector but a few chosen survivor banks and some lucky

That is correct. The dots are there for our convenience to be able to spot individual bytes. I hope the author addresses and edits their article accordingly.

I will agree with the sibling comment -- as an anecdotal opinion I guess. It has everything to do with nuclear. Since a few days ago, Germany's policy to reduce or keep energy prices and meet demand depends inextricably to France'

Three thoughts: a) I agree with you that the author lacks a basic understanding, and that they do not solve the problem. Yet: b) I think there actually might be a positive outcome for several reasons, including innovation, marketing and eth

Right now the estate can sue the driver yes. There is still a driver and owner. Solving the liability of the car manufacturer is critical answer for the future. But somebody will be liable.

I disagree about the Russia Ukraine prediction statements in this discussion. Nobody wanted to admit a "full blown invasion would happen" is better wording. Russia invaded and was meddling with Ukraine back in 2014. It invaded Geo

Even if say a particular cryptocurrency is not a security, it is definitely a commodity and market manipulation of a commodity is still a thing and a crime. Ask CFTC.
