The reheat is needed to get past the transonic region and onward to supersonic. Once you've gone supersonic the drag actually drops a lot. So you want to get through the transonic region as quickly as possible and reheat is a good way

As a former Hong Konger from before the handover but has long ago become American, the news also made me sad. I've always maintained a degree of affection for her throughout the years. I think the dignity you mentioned really helped in

I was about to make the same comment about Lyft — originally called Zimride. IIRC, they pivoted because it just wasn’t nearly as lucrative as car hailing.

Can someone explain the significance of this? Aren’t the secrets suppose to be encrypted on the device side before being sent to the Twilio servers? I don’t get how the attackers were able to get access to the MFA codes. Thanks.

100% and not just in tech: when a party’s incentives aren’t aligned with yours, you’ll often find yourself getting little help or even working in opposition to each other. We recently experienced this with filing for a health related insura

This is 100% why I often read the comments -- possibly without reading the article. The article might be talking about something I already know or might have even read already. But the comments often just veers off and I learn about somethi

Similarly, if my phone would just allow me to do some simple filtering based on number or location, it would filter out 99% of all spam calls. I have a Florida number but have lived outside of Florida for about 2 decades. No one who I have

I get annoyed with titles like that. "Never heard of", "Didn't know.", etc. I know people want clicks but it sometimes feel normal person to person courtesy aren't valued when the medium is the Internet. It&#x2

If it's only one card, then you can say that. But if there is a pattern of Amazon account X buying these cards to be used for Mullvad account Y, then it's harder to deny. Is it possible to redeem Amazon gift cards without an Amazo

What was the expected long term outcome of the nuclear test ban treaties? It seems unless there is some breakthrough in simulations and NIF type experiments, all countries with nuclear weapons will end up unsure of their weapons efficacy. I

If you read the story, Rick wasn’t always this way. He started out differently and sort of became a monster over time but who’s fault is that? Why did he become the only person who can solve the problems? That should have never been allowed

I’m sorry but this isn’t a problem with “Rick”. This was first and foremost a management problem. Yes I know they fired the management too but the focus of the article is still on everything that’s wrong with Rick but you can see how manage

That really mirrors my experience as well. Ruby is a very consistent language but I think one of the things people get really enamored with Ruby is the meta programming -- myself included and soon you're going to need a bunch of contex

Yeah the plaintext password thing sucks but you can mitigate that with LDAPS so it talks over a secure socket. The other choice you have is to use Kerberos to do the authentication. Also, thanks for the tip about OPAQUE. Going to go check

Good God, that page looks like someone barfed all over my screen. It's really ironic that a page that lionized Dieter Rams has such an atrocious layout and dizzying "print". It varies between highlighting and bold italics to

Whoa! Thanks for sharing that. I've been scared to even change my battery myself because it requires interfacing with the computer. I didn't realize there was a BMW sanction way of accessing the APIs.

You two are right. The sports mode button does more than the shifter tilt on the F30 as well but the more aggressive gearing is usually all I need to overtake.

I don’t know if the shifter is strictly necessary but I am glad it takes two actions to shift, especially for reverse and forward. It’s also really nice having the shifter because it’s this relatively big control surface I can grab and cont

He needs to trademark that phrase. It’s so iconic of him.

So that’s exactly my problem and I’ve yet to come across a guide that explains the underlying concept well. Any recommendations? I often feel like I’m uttering spells without understanding it when I use git. I hate working like that. Thanks

I believe the thinking behind Bitcoins being a good hedge is that there are some similarities between it and gold. I'm not saying that's true but I believe that's where the idea started from. They're both rare (arguably

I think it's a question of liquidity. If most of his wealth is in equities, he can't just sell $40 billion of TSLA without causing a huge price drop and losing voting power, etc. The way a lot of super wealthy people get liquidity

I’m really skeptical of the moon plan unless they can find a source of mercury on the moon itself. Mercury is heavy. If you’re going to build a moon telescope and pay for launching it there from Earth, you might has well pay for a good tele
