I meant seen as in seen it named. Just because the seven segment display is there doesn’t mean it’s named that on the box, while in the past there might be more stuff with those displays and it would be a callout on the box design possibly.

Young people may not have ever seen a display like that.

During world war two, German U-boats used to have issues with chlorine gas being produced from the batteries and it would flood the boat and kill everyone onboard.

Actually, the US military is successful more because they prioritize on the spot thinking and only deferring to the chain of command in specific circumstances. As much authority is pushed downwards to the lowest level possible. That’s why t

Lots of armchair admirals in here, but as a former naval officer your answer is the correct one. The pilot should have tried the flight controls, if I had abandoned ship because my displays turned off but we could still control the helm, I’

I bought the cheapest printer available, the Kobra Go I believe, and with very little tweaking I had it running well enough that I don’t care to tweak more. I owned a delta printer ten years ago which I spent $1200 plus another $600 in cust

Tests haven’t saved us so far, humans have been writing tests that passed for software with bugs for decades.

And? What’s the point of comparing? Is there a prize to being the most disabled? There’s always someone who has it worse by some metric than you, there’s no benefit to setting up a disability podium and awarding prizes. BTW, your “pinky vs

You’ve taken the opposite of what I said. Everyone’s disability is a struggle. Everyone’s life is a struggle. We help each other to navigate life and don’t compare. Answer this: what’s the end goal of comparing disabilities? I’d argue it’s

Heck, they have exoskeletons today, so I guess quadriplegics should just get that and walk right? There’s one more disability cured!

by ok_dad 2y ago
You don’t compare disabilities, none are worse or lesser than others, it’s simply a disability. Anyone, even those with disabilities, who try and argue one type is worse off than another type are simply being ableist by trying to minimize o

Imagine telling a quadriplegic something like this, though. The neurodiverse, which ADHD is a part, are always being told we still need to measure up to the standards of the non-disabled in some form or another. It’s always about how we sho

Luckily if they die another will rise up. At this point I’m thinking I’ll just use the Apple Keychain if Bitwarden gets up to no good again.

The military wants the simplest things possible. The only thing you could even reasonably want to have a way to disable would be crypto-related systems. For weapons, heck, even nuke missile codes are set to 0000 or something similarly stupi

Yea, we’ll use all the power useful for making clean water from the ocean for AI, and the shareholders will be so happy they can continue to extract value from those aquifers for a while longer :)

It’s simple and easy to understand what it is, that’s good marketing to my ears.

Clearly the smart people who chose Prada thought so, who are you to second guess them without any evidence or experience? It’s preposterous.

So NASA is now both competent enough to build a space suit but incompetent enough to be trusted to farm it out to a group of third party specialists, which Prada was but one of? I said they can deliver technology and experience that will he

Those are the shows that helped me to understand, partly, that every job from janitor to Jesus requires specialized knowledge gained over years of experience. I’m sad that on hacker news there are so many negative comments and closed minds.

Prada makes tons of luggage, which from what I’ve seen and heard hold up well. They are well known for their luggage. A lot of people look down on these types of fashion brands, as of the fashion industry isn’t a huge important part of huma

What? Prada is a cutting edge fabric technology and garment manufacturing company. They have been working on the edge of fashion, which is nothing to scoff at. If you judge the world by headlines, please consider how much you’ll miss out on

Just like most people don’t understand the inner workings of software, a lot of software engineers seem to not understand there’s deep layers of skill and technology beneath things that many would deem useless, like fashion. I’d like to see

At a medical device manufacturer I worked at, it’s even worse: you print a copy of the thing to sign and sign it, then upload that to the digital system and digitally sign there too. You end up with several people printing huge documents, n

No! This attitude is why we’re moving to a low trust situation in the modern world: because no one holds any morals and values beyond “get what’s yours”. People shouldn’t treat other people like this! Name and shame them, OP.
