I've been looking at folding bikes like this.. in my case, I'm a private pilot, and I'm looking for ways to solve the last mile issue of getting from my destination airport to somewhere fun to go - ie a nearby beach, or into

Just FYI, I don't believe Slack deletes them. They just hide them. If I go from a free tier to paid, I believe my message history becomes available again.

Not disagreeing that a new model is needed, but.. I'm not sure Netflix/Spotify is a good example. In order to access all the content I want, I have to have a zillion streaming accounts with monthly fees. The Netflix model in pa

Citation needed... As far as I know, no country today has a viable anti-ballistic missile defense system that works well enough to stop even a small percentage of the number of nukes that would be triggered by a MAD style endgame. What tec

You are, unfortunately, mistaken. The President has sole authority over launch decisions. There is a requirement that those orders be verified as authentic by the Secretary of Defense, but assuming POTUS gave the orders, it's not wit

I don't see how we could ask that of either people or publications - the data simply doesn't exist. Only a tiny fraction of Covid cases get genetically sequenced.

I fully agree that the risk tradeoffs made on these designs are highly unlikely to fail. The point is, though, that if they DO fail there IS NO redundancy. There aren't two jackscrew mechanisms. It's a single point of failure.

There are certainly single points of failure in airliner design. An example that springs to mind is the stabilizer trim jackscrew. There are supporting systems which try to mitigate the risk of failure or the likelihood of failure, but bot

Yep, absolutely 100%.

In order for that argument to make sense, you'd have to make the logical leap that jumping out of the perfectly flyable airplane ceases his responsibility for operating the aircraft. That doesn't seem reasonable, and I doubt any

Private pilot here. Posting this because I haven't the regulation mentioned, and because several folks have made it sound like bailing out of a still-flyable airplane isn't against regulation. Among the several other regs that th

My random thoughts come from the other side of the table -- my current gig is in a weird corner of the contact center outsourcing market, and we do some customer service for folks on a dedicated agent basis. 1) Be super clear internally wi

Even within crypto/defi, it's still people making the decisions. People wrote the algorithms. The only advantage I see there is that, in theory, you should be able to see what rules are encoded in that algorithm, so it's sl

It's actually even tougher than just certification issues. High-Q filters tend to impact timing. Timing is what is being used to calculate distance above ground. It's not even just as simple as adding the filter, you have to fi

If you are concerned that the only way to keep people subscribed is to offer them a one-off promotion when they've decided to cancel -- isn't that kind of a tacit acknowledgement that your product doesn't contain the value th

I think this falls into the "arms race" trap, though. If you can make an href invisible via CSS, then the scraper can certainly be written to understand CSS, and thus filter out the invisible hrefs..

I really really want to love working in Elixir and Phoenix, but I keep stumbling at the lack of database connectivity in Ecto. Anything other than Postgres seems very unsupported. When I took another look six months ago or so, there was

Yes. You are free to make a choice, not free from the consequences of that choice.

No, future "minor incidents" will not be kept "under wraps". The FAA has strict guidelines on what is and is not reportable, and those guidelines arent skirted by any commercial operator of a size that would be flying 7

My guess would be bandwidth. Every bit of bandwidth is precious, so they probably dont have the spare budget to send long audio files without obvious scientific value...

Holy wow.. To me, this looks like the contents of an RFP where the submitter doesn't actually want any vendor to be able to meet the requirements.

I'm positive that they have internal monitoring, and probably knew about the issues well before they decided to manually update their status page to reflect the issue. Manually updating the status page does not equal no monitoring, af

I dont think the multihoming requirement works like that. Either Vultr or AWS would fulfill it, as they each certainly would be advertising the block out several redundant ISP paths, thus fulfilling the multihoming justification...

FWIW, geostationary orbital velocity is like 3km per second. I'm not sure that being stationary relative to the ground is very relevant since we are talking about stuff colliding in space. The more stable orbits seem like they might b

I own a 2019 Forrester with EyeSight. While I dont hate it, and I like the adaptive cruise, I'm curious.. How exactly do you easily override the crash detection logic? I've had it slam on the brakes spuriously due to steam from

Can you elaborate on your reference to GA? Our safety record is far worse than commercial, and always has been, but in general has seen an improving trend until the last year or two which has seen a bit of a bump in the other direction. T

I'm not sure I see these training issues as a problem with the methods and processes we use to train pilots. Rather, this seems like information which was kept from pilots in order to avoid costly training altogether. The methods we
