It might not be "most situations", but its certainly mine. I've been filling out the sonic form yearly for at least 5 years now. I'll say i do appreciate that it stopped offering me verizon. It always felt like a bit of

There are various options, production grade systems like flink and spark use akka (iiuc) for the distributed building blocks. But of course that's only building blocks, they still have to build up the system.

Having received speeding tickets in california, the fine is only the base charge. The total ticket is usually 3 to 4x the cost of the base fine. All in, 99 in a 75 was ~$500 a decade ago (100 in a 75 is reckless driving, and a whole differe

starship uses methalox, a combination of methane and oxygen. I'm far from an expert, but my understanding is the methane comes from refining LNG.

It still feels a bit off. I expect an expensive car to have expensive repairs. When looking at the cost of a repair I would perhaps consider the cost as a proportion of the MSRP, or resale value, not the raw cost.

Just an anecdote, but I recently used LLM's as part of learning helmfile/helm/k8s. Mostly i used the LLM to help me find the right documentation. I know what concept I'm looking for, but i don't know what they call

And yet, open source software lives and dies on support. Projects that are perceived as having unresponsive upstreams that don't support the project are often in a death spiral.

Are taxi's any better now? I haven't taken one in more than a decade, but in talking to taxi drivers back then it was clear that calling the cab company and asking for a pickup didn't result in any guarantees. They would call

Indeed this whole story sounds like the driver is just a useless human. They dropped off the passenger at a pet hospital. I can't imagine how the driver realized there was still a cat in the car and did anything other than return to t

Is the GWOT relevant though? It seems like one of the biggest issues the us military is facing a shift back towards "conventional" military matters, aka potential future faceoff's with China or Russia. These opponents field

Well they all work in tech and make well over 6 figures, they could buy one if they wanted. There may be some desire, but it's balanced by other factors.

You live in a different world where noone wants to use a year old phone. I certainly live in a different, and perhaps non-standard, world as well. At my game night last night there wasn't a single phone newer than 5 years.

You would probably need a microscope and some appropriate tools. Looking at the 10's of thousands of $$ my neighbor has in metalworking tools, there isn't much of a problem asking home enthusiasts to buy some tools to do what they

I was optimistic they were trying to resolve the issue with melting connectors by using a better method, but I think you might be right and this is unrelated.

Indeed, the idea of having something like an ipaq with an internet connection was around, it just wasn't viable to build a consumer device yet.

They took the wrong approach. The simple answer was to tax the companies you want to pay, and then give the money to the people you want to give money to. Instead they put together this rube goldberg machine and facebook is noping out.

I don't disagree with your argument, but capacity is a useless measurement. Without considering the capacity factor you might as well be comparing apples to zebras.

Minecraft has made this a bit confusing, but there are two completely independent implementations of minecraft, the java edition and the bedrock edition. The poster above you was referring to the bedrock edition for linux. * The java editio

Depending on context, thats probably true? i can't think of the last time we preferred ftp over something like scp or rsync. But I could certainly believe some people are still running ancient systems that use ftp.

Perhaps you haven't lived the same life they have, where receiving condescension for using your normal weights and measures is par for the course. Not saying it's justified, but when it's something you expect to receive it&#x
