Range has been solved for normal people for years now. Charging infrastructure... less so but getting good in some countries. As for airplanes we need a different chemistry and there isn't a huge amount of work going in that direction

Well they may have physically made the shell and thus not a render. As for if it does what it says on the tin I have no idea, maybe the commenter that suggests they have insider knowledge can clarify.

It's been going on much longer in places like Yemen. Obama was the first to recognise that by switching to drones you basically don't have to face any domestic political opposition to combat.

Economy of scale allows them to handle that regulatory burden much more efficiently than a single purchaser could.

Technically yes. Google also. The caveat being they expect data and servers etc to be present within China and unlike the EU don't allow data to leave China. The penalties are also much much higher. There are also rules around applying

Losing the Chinese market is a double punch. Initially it guts their growth but over the longer term it will spawn state-sponsored competitors with access to near unlimited funds that can compete everywhere the US can't block them. Suc

Kotlin is growing in usage. Not as fast on backend obviously because Java is still perfectly serviceable but it's still definitely growing. The area Kotlin excels in isn't as a pure Java replacement to be used by Java devs but rat

Is it? Last I checked ( https://openjdk.org/jeps/465 ) it was being proposed for finalisation. Where did you read it's being removed instead?

Depends what you mean by data structure. If you mean across multiple tables the most obvious answer is a tool that helps improve normalisation. Otherwise I'm not really sure what else you can mean by data structure that isn't how

Examples are easy, usefulness... harder to imagine. Simple example, bigint column where all values would fit in smallint or if only 0/1 are present then boolean. For a more complex idea if a large number of boolean columns are present

It's much less deep then nihilism. Their goal is simply to live their life as richly as they can at the expense of those they consider less than themselves. They are the wealthy and they act accordingly. Why anyone sees Republicans as

IMO the .NET and JVM camps are well ahead of the rest when it comes to ecosystem quality/tooling/support/longevity. JVM + k8s + PostgreSQL is my current Boring Stack of choice but I think you could be equally justified with .

Kotlin strikes a good middle ground on the fast compilation <-> inference continuum IMO. within function bodies you rarely need to think about the typing system. Function return types can be inferred for expression bodies and star pro

Once you are big enough to have a procurement department this isn't just not frowned upon it's expected and very much "part of the game". I personally hate it but it's just how the game is played and it's why a

One thing that isn't made clear is when writes are acknowledged. Specifically is a write acknowledged when it's written to Delta WAL or when it's uploaded to object storage? If writes are acknowledged when written to Delta WA

Essentially the problem is that Kafka doesn't have a way of managing acknowledgements on a per-message basis. This means that consumers from Kafka topics are assigned exclusive access on a per-partition basis and the consumer group man

It's a bit unfortunate IMO because Kafka while perfectly adequate for streaming often winds up with someone wanting to use it like a work queue which predictably ends horribly. Ideally something like Pulsars API (which more resembles s

If you need to ask you aren't ready for something like this. That said, it's basically Kafka with the topic-partition persistence swapped out. So the libraries etc are just the standard Kafka libraries because the frontend listene

Yeah it's a conundrum. The easiest time to adopt something like Bazel/Buck/etc is at the start. However that is when tools like that provide the least value which given their additional friction isn't a good trade-off. I
