I agree with most of your points, except I'm not sure about this: > when you fail to board Airplane B that event gets flagged. Not a huge deal but you might have a problem getting a refund The passenger would cancel that refundable

I was looking for an explanation of the comment above me, not of the article, but thanks anyway! Excellent work.

I think most people say Pasific, not Pazifik. I can't think of an example where I would pronounce c like z. Your point stands, regardless.

I wonder why Google would make an SSO assertion along the lines of "yes, this user Bob has email address bob@example.com" in the situation where example.com is not under a Workspace account. Such assertions ought to be made only f

The link between online identity and offline identity is a sacred barrier. And I'm not sure that archive.org breached that particular barrier.

This raises an interesting question: should email addresses be private? Addresses of buildings aren't private, and they're somewhat analogous as with many computing concepts. (Aside: Before spam filters were quite good, it was typ

In my VW, the cellular modem and something I actually use (I think it's the Bluetooth microphone) are in the same module, so pulling the fuse or disabling it in the CAN gateway would be too heavy-handed. I would need to spend hours get

But that's most true only if you forbid playing open strings. Or if you demand that they be tuned to equally tempered fifths rather than just fifths, and that the player finger accordingly! Neither is likely, in which case it's bi

I know it's no problem for trained players, but I suspected that an instrument's ability to have its player worry about pitch exclusively on the fingerings might be what Quartesixte meant in their claim that a violin plays in all

If you play a chromatic scale on a valved brass instrument, played with no pitch adjustments via embouchure, you end up with a series of pitches that are of questionable temperament, since some intervals are achieved by jumping between regi

It beeps. The transducer is efficient at monophonic simple waveforms but it would choke on a complex waveform as commonly encoded via MP3. Presumably the beeper was used only for critical UX until this most recent update which includes a pr

People playing music (through all sorts of non-vocal means) is still a very human experience, though. And it's not like performing vocal music is confined to humans. Plenty of machines can sing in the sense of reproducing songs using a

by hunter2_ 2y ago
From time to time, I see people use the word "song" to refer to a tune that isn't sung, one without words. While incorrect, vernacular is what it is, so we can't get too caught up in it, but "piece" would be mo

> fine - that's now on them Is that legally true? The legal risk of having published this without responsible disclosure vanishes if the conventional period of opportunity is ignored? That smells fishy.

TFA mentioned sending requests with a table number that the sender was not at. That is hardly any different from the idea of showing a badge that wasn't issued to you. The ease of spoofing doesn't matter at all, in the eyes of suc
