Defense contractors are also notoriously old school in management, and remote positions are very hard to come by (also due to security concerns).

Good tip, the latest Vaios do look nice. But it's very weird to see a VGA port on a modern laptop!

Since you bring up naming, man/unmanned really needs to be dropped for crewed/uncrewed. NASA technically adopted this in 2006, but they still mess it up. Here's more info on their terminology, as well as other options you bro

Absolutely. I meant simplifying in response to the OP's question- detecting a receiver's location.

Since these satellites are in low earth orbit, the satellites currently overhead will be changing very frequently. It's possible the satellites will actually not transmit at all over certain countries. The receivers will also know thei

Had this same thought. It'd be hard to argue a punishment was "cruel or unusual" if you picked it over a punishment that is already legally accepted and the standard (fine or jail).

Thank you! Many times I have thought through how I could approach something like this. The actual tech behind the OP-1 isn't complicated, they just came up with an awesome form factor and UX. I'm absolutely gonna try getting invol

The OP-1 is the only device I truly love and want to own but never will. I'm still pissed TE sent out an email after an OP-1 sold for something like $10,000+ on eBay saying "don't worry, we're working on making this affo

I'd say the rise of white nationalism is pretty meaningful and its impact on this administration (and foreign policy) has had significant consequences.

This isn't being seriously alleged, as the source of this theory was a Roger Stone associate. https://twitter.com/lachlan/status/1093864755381571584

Removing the need for every household to have their own dedicated car is part of Tesla's vision. Elon has referred to self-driving functionality as a "shared electric autonomy". https://electrek.co/2018/1

I would read through AirBnB's JS style guide. Very well structured, and most rules have reasons specified in the guide. It should cover all the unfamiliar parts for you. After that, the next biggest thing is tooling so it'd be pic

Totally understandable. Later seems appropriate, and your feedback after completing this process will probably be pretty valuable to your friend.

You mentioned "adding value" a few times, but if you are truly job shadowing then that should not be a goal of yours. Job shadowing is about observing and learning. Just watch and listen, and do your best to humbly stay out of the

The Pragmatic Programmer may be soft skills and generally "common sense" advice, but it's very practical and the analogies stick with you. The two that have stuck with me are the boy scout principle (leaving an area of code c

Virgin Galactic doesn't have any orbital aspirations, as far as I know (unlike Virgin Orbit). The biggest change I saw was they floated the possibility of actually traveling this way- e.g. London to New Mexico or somewhere. But that wa

Appreciate the details. I've done some minor JS-based table controls while using <table>, but I wasn't dealing with thousands of rows so didn't need the virtual DOM. Sounds like that's the biggest obstacle. Nice wo

It seems standard that all of these JS table libraries are rendering using <div> elements instead of a <table> element. Why? This really irks me. As far as I can tell, all of the features could be implemented using the correct H

I have an iPhone and a MacBook with USB-C ports, and my experience has been the exact opposite. The lightning port on my iPhone is really weak, all cords can way too easily lose a connection so my music stops or it stops charging. The USB-C
