That sounds like an abstraction problem. I’m totally willing to accept I’m crazy. But my gut feeling is there is a lot of technical debt in representation, so it’s hard to move to the frontier.

Drivers and bartenders are licensed. Cars and booze are registered. Requiring a higher standard for risky stuff is how we handle everything.

Yes. Absolutely. They should have legal’s contact info instantly available. If your cs reps don’t have this, your organization is running a big risk. Consider one party recording laws. Let me refer you to legal should be a first day trainin

I don’t know why you are getting downvotes. Odds are you are right. People are getting emotionally attached to nuclear winter I guess.

Only 20 foreign movies are allowed into China per year. Unless part of the movie takes place in China. Lots of movies have a special cut, just for that reason.

yup, that one event didn't make it up to 10k feet. But as pointed out, it was like twilight, and the temperature dropped 5C. Asia was spared. But if you continue on, you'll find more recent research, both pro an con. I think it&#x

I was distracted by the middle. It's not really the bomb, it's the fires. Setting a hundred cities on fire in an afternoon, each one pushes soot up into the upper atmosphere. sunlight gets absorbed there rather than down on the su

If you mean the people of the US still value the dollar, i don't think it would be a huge hit. People will scoop up all the free dollars, and bring them back to the us where they have value. Contracts still have to be paid in dollars.

The expensive parts, have specific taxes to pay for specific programs. War on the other hand, it's just kinda, let's spend a bunch of money and worry about it later. That makes a lot of sense when you're averting genocide or

Ah, i see. I misunderstood your argument. I thought you meant something like "an average person want to pick up some uber shifts. they already have the car, so the expense can't be that much." I'd assumed an average pers

From op's data, 10,000 - $0.7354 15,000 - $0.5646 20,000 - $0.4944 I just don't see how you get that marginal cost down to $0.20, yes mile n+1 is a little bit cheaper than mile n. and sure, let's pretend th

I mean, it's your source. You're free to disagree with it. the cost per mile clearly goes down as milage goes up. as witnessed by the 10/15/20 brackets of driving. but 20 cents a mile isn't even close.

in that brochure, average total cost per mile is $0.5646 @15k miles per year. I think you're looking at the operating cost per mile, that doesn't include stuff like insurance, registration, and financing. page 9, look in the middl

Also, 5 9s of uptime. They had many problems. Reliability was not one of them.

Yes. it's also interesting that it's from the point of view of a guy who worked on something like 17 planes over the course of their career. I think that's very rare now.

That headline is amazing. The article is interesting. The headline is just a jewel. I suppose someone might be tempted to call it clickbait, but it's in no way misleading. it's just a spectacular title.

I didn't take this course. I have taken compiler classes. Short answer, yes. Longer answer, compilers of any sort are hard, because there's both a lot of special cases and also pressure to be algorithmically efficient. Writing any

My limited understanding is if I require a package ‘A’ and another package ‘B’ it’s fine. Unless ‘A’ depends on a different ‘B’. Then I’m pretty much fucked.

The thing that bugs me is common carrier. Once you start discriminating traffic, you’re not common carrier. You should lose those protections.

Also I think the sports car helps solve problems. You can spend a little more on a solution, then figure out how to do it cheaper on the next generation family sedans. Even decide if that’s just the wrong approach due to maintenance headach

imho, civil servants get a bad rap. We can all point out specific examples of government interaction sucking, but there aren't exactly a lot of comcast cheerleaders around. DHS may indeed be a disaster. I think if you talk to the actua

Professor of mine advocated pencil and paper. I don’t have the fortitude to do that daily. However, rolling in and typing something up is amazing. I can’t advocate doing that every day, but try once a week or once a month. It’s kind of awes
