If a potential customer is pitched by two sales teams, one who “showed commitment by showing up” and were humanized with friendly in-person communication, and another sales team who only called in on Zoom from hundreds/thousands of mil

“But guess what, increased health issues of people "close" to the place it gets released clearly show that this isn't really the case. At least for the people close by.” Do you have a link/source for this?

Late edit: By zero transparency, I meant zero opacity. I.e., it'll start fading as it approaches approaches 100% scale from %60 scale. And not clarify, by non-uniform scaling, I'm referring to elements stretched in the X axis more

Looks pretty nice overall for sure. But, I would give the feedback that the non-uniform scaling of UI controls is a very uncommon animation behavior, and will feel out of place on any OS that I’m familiar with. In general, the animations fe

It’s seems like there’s a gap in this story, at least as it’s presented by the article. The article says he was baited into a meeting, and then two weeks after the meeting was when the real trouble began. Did he in fact say something genuin

They actually have a clip of the sound in the video, and if I remember correctly that sound was recorded in the 1% atmosphere chamber, so should sound similar to how it would sound on Mars.

Veritasium has a great video on the helicopter. Early on in the video they explain that Mars’ atmosphere is equivalent in density to Earth’s atmosphere at 100,000 feet, and the record altitude for helicopters on earth is 40,000 feet. https

Actually, I’m confused by the logic of that. If you were plagiarizing someone, wouldn’t you want to be look different from the original author so you don’t remind people of them and get caught? His hand tattoos meant that anyone who know th

I’m not a Scala programmer so I don’t know who is more right here, but _ai_ was saying that calling three different features by one name does not mean there’s really one feature. Which is different than saying one feature can be used in thr

I don’t want to add credence to such a poorly worded and misguided comment, but 230 is referring to Section 230 of the Communications Act of 1934. No-scoped refers to killing something so quickly with a sniper rifle so fast you don’t even t

As long as the engineers are replaceable by other engineers, that’s not really leverage. The leverage is the capital to pay the engineers’ salaries and the risk tolerance for the business model possibly failing.

At a basic level, I agree there’s not a fundamental difference. But I think it’s reasonable to look at practical differences between China and the US and consider which one you’d prefer to be secretly recording your personal data. The US ha

I think the OP's point was that the National Association of Realtors is a private organization, not a democratically formed government institution.

In the US. In some places (I know personally China), drivers frequently use their horns simply to tell other drivers that they exist when they are passing. A downside is incredibly noisy roadways.

I was also very confused by OP as well. I’m thinking maybe by customer he means a business using his analytics service. That would explain why it needs to scale for his first customer, and why one customer could have terabytes of data.

Angle absolutely can affect RCS. Retracting landing gear, retracting flaps, etc. can reduce RCS. For military aircraft, closing of weapons bays that were previously open would reduce RCS. In an extreme case, jettisoning of external fuel tan

I may be behind the times, but last I checked there was no way to use JITed JavaScript in iOS apps. Or maybe you could put JS in a hidden webview, but bridging to native was extra slow with this approach? While LuaJIT can't be JITed ei
