well in case 2, the pilot get treatment and a doctor will decide if she is fit to fly. That's not bulletproof but still better than case 1. And to your other point, it's easier to give up on your dream job when young and start wit

Some humans might be perfectly willing to be used as lab mice. Those predestined to die soon or have very low quality of life for instance. That's why some advanced cancer patients can get very experimental meds. It gets pretty bad tho

Would you mind porting graphviz to Fil-C ? It's probably foolish, but I have the idée fixe that there's really no solid alternative for graphviz and dot (yes, there are UI versions, and mermaid and whatnot, but nothing that works

Not about attacking starlink as the clickbait suggests, but about using a 2W laser to transmit at 1GBit/s through the atmosphere. Not sure what's changed from 2023: https://www.scmp.com/news/china/science

slightly offtopic: I would be delighted if Tucholsky had written something hilarious along those lines. But he didn't as far as I know, he focused more on the German language himself. https://www.eventpeople.de/aktuelle

Interesting given the timing of the tariffs. These subscriptions are not subject to those, right? So tariffs really encourage subscription models to subsidize goods …

It‘s a grey zone. If Mr GRU asks, I probably say say no. If the CIA, Mossad or BND asks, maybe I say yes? It’s not clear for a person with a better moral compass than mine.

That sounds inefficient. Should the right answer not be to train an ai and iterate? I mean, I know it’s lame to say ai is the solution to everything but here it seems to make sense to me.

You can sign up to be on the waiting list for a lucky Panda $2 note, with a nice red envelope and a serial number starting with '888'. I mean, it's a nice gesture, and maybe annoying the heck out of certain Presidents. The pr

Many thanks for the offer! I have a few old ones, too. I'm sure I have seen .bin files with dumps. Maybe here: https://home.snafu.de/wahlm/tfdownload.html There was some bad blood between Wa8DED and NORDLINK/

I really would like to have a simple re-implementation of ye olde TNC-2s that had a small eprom and a kiss mode TNC with a fricking BBS on ax-25 that worked like a charm. They existed I believe around 1988-1990ish. I mean, yes, this cable w

I always wondered if you can orbit inside the event horizon of a large black hole and wait until its hawking radiation shrinks the event horizon so that you find yourself outside. You would have to wait a long time I guess.

Maybe off-topic, but are there good solutions for esp32/other microcontrollers controlling zigbee devices ? I found a bunch of libraries (e.g., https://github.com/espressif/esp-zigbee-sdk ), but nothing that seems

I'm curious how it compares to emacs' calc / spreadsheet mode in org. Looks like it is a) a stand-alone X11 app (not easily runnable on macos) b) using python instead of elisp. Is that roughly accurate ? I can't easily

And yet, you can buy nice electrified wheelchairs on Aliexpress for less than $3000. My guess is, like for hearing aids from costco, you won't get reimbursed by insurance if you buy it yourself.

Hard pass. You will likely need ongoing support from the manufacturer. A Tesla is probably not indefinitely supported and might need security and other updates to properly function, for remote operations, navigation, entertainment etc.

Wouldn't it be more practical to have a prominent CO2 monitor and only exchange the air (maybe by opening the door for a few seconds) if it CO2 gets too high ? Maybe it's hard keeping a co2 monitor operating in humid sauna conditi
