Here is what I learnt from the past news: 1. FAA let Boeing do its job. 2. Boeing screwed up. 3. Pilots raised concerns but dismissed without any investigation. 4. Planes crashed and people died. 5. Boeing CEO walked away with packages and

This might actually be much worse than just looking at the academical credentials. Most if not all those tests are utterly useless, at best can only tell how familiar the candidates with the test subject but nothing else. Let the team to re

I got it. I should put ONLY there. It doesn't matter how much the capacity was, the fact was when I opened it after the printer reported cartridge exhausted, the foams inside were still soaked with ink.

How much code did you write to get it barely working all by yourself? Or you were just working on top of someone else's work? I did it a couple of times, it was never something like "dozens lines of code".

I was naive to think so as M$ did not have as many obvious malicious moves as $G recently. But I forgot all those companies are there for money and for sure they will do whatever they can.

Okay, I thought M$ was just a little bit better than $G. It turned to be as bad...

Someone who really buys that "dozens lines of code" will definitely has no idea what kind of complexity it was about.

Oh sure. Can you try to set up ANY CI pipelines to make it more or less working, don't worry about "pipelines that build and test on multiple target platforms" and get back to share with us your experiences?

His heart was failing for some reason(s). I don't see how transplant would ever make those go away, at best it would only buy him some time allowing those reasons to be removed. In some lucky cases, those do get removed automatically b

Hmmm, Bloomberg... Can anyone comment on what that tiny chip could be in the following article? https://www.bloomberg.com/news/features/2018-10-04/the-big-h...

Are you sure it's really "small in capacity"? I was curious so I opened one of the cartridges my printer reported as empty. There was still plenty of ink in it...

We need laws to prevent such malicious practices. Currently most if not all printer vendors sell printers at loss hoping to claw it back by sell consumables at extremely high prices. Given such background, vendors have more than enough moti

There are actually different models have laser trans-receivers built in with same or might even cheaper price. So unless there are very special requirements, I don't really see a reason to go for those.

Further more, why would someone choose this over $59.69 a pair fiber ether net media converter, up to 20KM, 1000Mbps from TP-LINK? There are most likely cheaper options from other vendors. https://www.aliexpress.com/item&#x2

Agree. Regarding so called auto-pilot/full-self-driving, Tesla was at best misleading, if not deceiving. So far seems not much we can do about it.

I have always been skeptically on those on road auto-driving and I double whether can get to the ready-to-deploy ever. The logic is simple: our road environment is so volatile and even best trained drivers make deadly mistakes. Such environ

Trust is earned not granted. You don't trust a random stranger walks by, why should anyone trust apps created by some random organizations? Especially given some calculator and similar apps came with a privacy statement, how much trust

Just pick a couple of those USB-C docks on the market and check how many are actually working for you. I used over 10 different USB-C docks from different vendors. It doesn't matter which vendor, they all have various issues. They migh

It's obviously the failure of the spec. Why cables with different capabilities have to look exactly the same? Put the looking aside, I wondering if anyone can tell what's the exact differences between different specs? USB standard

Oh well. I just returned 3 USB-C hubs in a row, one almost fried my computer. Since the introduce of USB-C, I have more cables than ever. There are virtually so many types of USB-C cables with different capabilities and all looks almost exa

It depends. In some scenarios, it might actually increase the amount of work in comparison with other technologies. K8s introduces way too much complexities, especially for small organizations. On top of K8s, there are helm charts to add mo

Agree. Also recycling plastics was mostly a lie. I used to think that small triangular icon with a number in it on plastic containers meant it can be recycled as it looks almost exactly the same with the recycling icon. It turned out I was

Walk away. Trust me, 99.99% of the time, you will prove yourself wasting time on similar situations.

There are always people in vulnerable positions and there are more than enough suckers willing to take advantage of that. My tip to avoid that is to ask for a phone screening for around a hour, walk away if cannot get one. If they don&#x27

This is mostly a central banking failure. Take a look around the world, for decades the only thing the central banks have been doing is printing money. If that is ever going to work, put swines in their seat would do their jobs perfectly. T
