That's not how wifi works. Being on wifi doesn't mean that wifi network has access to your encrypyed communication.

That's exactly what it is, but the kids they employ don't know better. The idea that there's a cabal of restaurant owners who get together to discuss in detail how they're breaking the law and maintain a blacklist is abs

The film didn't work for me, because I didn't realise the "twist" was supposed to be a twist. I had assumed it from the start and was expecting the reverse to be the twist.

Getting laid off shouldn't "Destroy the life and dreams" of anyone. It's a short term set-back, and in many countries there are protections in place to make sure that even in the short term people aren't dramaticall

What am I not understanding about your comment, 300m is 25m per month, so that sounds very profitable?

It seems odd to cherry pick 2019 as a start point, it lacks context whether this is part of a longer and bigger decline which blipped back up in 2020 due to covid or whether this is a newer problem after a long period of growth. The more si

That's overly simplistic and untrue. If you write a C# / .Net program you're not "just calling C code", you're not calling C at all.

It's the cause of extra attention of "Hacker news" to this story, which otherwise wouldn't be paid much attention outside of regional news. Instead right now it's the #1 story on HN.

I'm not defending Boeing. I've said elsewhere I wouldn't fly on a max. I'm attacking the way in which the media (and audience, the media is mostly just chasing ratings) gets obsessed about a topic to the exclusion of oth

This is one of those stories that wouldn't be noticed if not for the attention on anything Boeing related right now. Instead it's near the top of the front-page. This hyper selective attention is very bad. It leads to all kinds of

It's hard to describe what exactly I don't like. Initially I thought it was just a muscle memory thing but I've had it long enough now that I've got used to the different UI for everyday things and try to use it's s

Wow that's a big list of surprisingly useful features being ripped out. I'd already noticed my new phone (pixel 8, I fucking hate it) had trouble setting a simple timer with a voice command ( last time I tried it gave me a shitty

If I remember right there's a Zach-like game called "Signal State" which is focused on analog circuits. ( I'm not sure how much or similar that is to analog computing ). It might be worth checking that out, get a feel fo

I'm a big fan of this genre of game, I have a small but growing steam collection of different ones. ( And some non-steam such as nandgame ). Turing complete is one of the better ones, the simulation seems reliable and the missions, aft

Are those headcounts from the commercial aircraft division? If not you've got things like a reduction in manufacture of ICBMs to consider. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LGM-30_Minuteman

I've communicated it albeit very indirectly. When looking at holiday packages for this summer I looked up the route to see if it's a 737 max before booking. It wasn't, it was an A320 as I expected.

It took me a few times to understand their sentence correctly. What I think OP meant to say: All pupils found success. My success could be explained by being primed for success with 18 months of duolingo, but all pupils had similar success.

Some things I noticed: The list is fairly short (70 activities total). Once filtered it would be easier to simply display all matching activities. Many of the "Low" cost activities have significant upfront costs. I wouldn't d

That's a bit of a strange thing to focus on, I don't see how having a pilot on board would change any of that.

I don't understand what the author is trying to say with this post. "Don't be a solution looking for a problem"? Okay, but there's little insight beyond that pithy statement, no guidance of how to avoid that trap, j

Warning: post contains spoilers, HN doesn't support spoiler text so continue reading at your peril. These edge cases are triggered by fundamentally approaching the problem incorrectly. In some ways it's excellent to bring that up

There's more difference between 2 points and 3 points than between 5 points and 8. If you're looking to fill an arbitrary bucket, relative size matters most.

So you draw your own faulty and misleading conclusions from a graph which never says anything about obesity, and then say it's the graph that is misleading not your analysis?

What I like about this format is that it's observing and addressing real problems someone actually had. It's not a philosophical debate nor is it advice based on what someone did 20 years prior when they were a novice. It's a

I really feel like Hackerone isn't really holding up their end of the bargain if they let companies sit on things like this for 3 years.
