Thanks for clarifying. I chose what seemed the most likely interpretation of an ambiguity. If it works for you, think of it as a drawing out of the argument, instead of a counterpoint to you. I’m arguing against the others who think there h

The data is not being used in the way alarmists describe things, so it’s on the alarmists to explain why they think there is a problem.

We thought it wasn’t an option until we tried. Just need a long cord and the right parking place. I would agree most don’t have it though, for now.

EPA range is calculated based on driving very conservatively. Once you’re behind the wheel, you won’t feel like driving that way. And superchargers are so plentiful so it’s not a problem on most routes. If it is a problem for your area, sti

This is just a feeling, but for me I was tired of the quirkiness of Perl, and Ruby offered yet more quirkiness. Python offered an opinionated and more crisp proposition, stating explicitly the goal among other things of having (paraphrasing

Of course there's a difference, but if the incident causes a fire that then spreads, that is very bad in either case. It's more likely the law exists from the fire concern than out of concern for the pilots, and the law is just wa

The author never mentions the alternative ChatGPT. It’s an article about Copilot, yet people are commenting as if it’s an article about coding with AI tools generally. Copilot is very intrusive and is just one of the available options.

They have a common beginner's mistake in their example usage of sha256sum. Nothing that would affect the git usage, to be fair... unless they have related tooling that does this. > echo "please hash this data" | sha2

If it's a hazard to a crew, it could also be a hazard to electronics that pilot the craft. If the craft comes down as a result, that could be bad news for any forests, buildings, people, etc. nearby on the ground. Glad to help!

Thanks for clarifying. To me it's just never obvious what their real issue is. I suspect someone who succeeds at stuff while daring to question everything and have fun at it is just triggering for a lot of folks.

Are you convinced that your antistatic envelope is the only potential source of sparks, arcs, flames or other catalysts of ignition? Are you aware of squirrels, chipmunks, birds, spiders, insects, wires, and branches? You do say that you wi

You might consider whether there was perhaps an underlying issue behind the regulations and the logic around that issue could apply regardless of manmade border lines.

Can you reasonably make the (only needs to be verbal) argument that you are considering maybe going to graduate school? If so, national labs in the US hire “graduate research assistants” who don’t get paid much but hey you’ll be working at
