Thanks, that makes sense. Didn’t realize how many engines failed but when you look at T+1:22, it looks like 7 engines are already out.

Well, RIP that Starship. Does anyone understand/have theories on what failed? All I can find is that it had an RUD between liftoff and first stage separation.

I’d be willing to bet Java, Python, or C are the best because of how much training data was in those languages. They aren’t the best at a theoretical level but at a practical level, almost definitely.

Your comment sounds exactly like the sentiment you see on stack overflow and is a big part of the problem the OP is complaining about. It’s abrasive, unhelpful, and if that’s all you have to say on this topic, better left unsaid.

I don’t personally think it’s that strange or internally inconsistent. People seem to be saying “within the current copyright system, consent should be required, but I still think the copyright system is broken”.

Can confirm this advice. Highly recommended to explore comp sci programs at local schools or online; check WGU for example.

I don’t believe stack overflow is in the same grey area, they have a pretty clear TOS and license for the code snippets. I’m pretty sure it’s CC-BY-SA.

Why not? As a layperson, I assume a CIWS could still fire into the flight path of one and knock it out of the air.

It’s a good question and in my opinion, it depends entirely on the compound. But that wasn’t the point of my comment. I am calling out people being pedantic and nitpicky just to argue, instead of recognizing the very obvious intent of the

Interesting question. I suspect that would be intrinsically tied to rate of manufacture. The cost of manufacturing exoskeletons will decrease over time while the cost of labor and building modifications will likely decrease.

In most casual English conversation, “chemical” is implied as “[man made] chemical”, though I will admit that may not be obvious to people for whom English is not a first language. It’s obvious to (almost) any native speaker what is being s

While I agree with most of your point, > By their very nature, being restricted to text input and output these models can not be general. Humans only have five types of I/O, yet are general intelligences. I don’t think having limite

There’s also an explosion of building codes and inspection requirements that didn’t exist in the 50s.

Huh that’s super interesting — full rewrites aren’t super common. Do you know why they elected to rewrite the engine completely?

It’s worth noting their entire switching infrastructure is human run mechanical switches and the tech are dated enough the MTA can’t even reliably know where a given subway car is. By comparison, most subway systems have a computerized swit

Don’t quote me but I’m pretty sure the LIDAR sensor for most phone cameras exists entirely because of self driving cars. They drove the miniaturization of LIDAR sensors and the development of solid state LIDAR.

The discrepancy is because this is untrue. Almost every city on the west coast I’ve been to has a large and obvious homeless population.

Yeah, or the fact that hard hats are required, people are required to be paid more than 50 cents an hour, you can’t force 1 employee to work 80 hours a week continuously, etc. All of that adds to costs. For good reason, don’t get me wrong,

A drink called the Irish car bomb can be readily ordered anywhere in the US, despite brutal killings in the 80s-90s. Use of a term is oft separated from the historical connotations of it.

I think this comes from a misunderstanding of orbital dynamics. Without *active* effort by the engines, these sort of satellites are low enough they drop out of orbit within a year or two because of friction against the atmosphere. Basicall

I suspect it gets mapped to 1.0.0.1 because no other resolution is possible. Any other locations for the two zeros results in an invalid IP (either starting or ending in 0).

Please cite sources for all of this. The mechanism of action for Tylenol is mostly known and regardless it is not uncommon to have medicines with an unknown mechanism approved (e.g. gabapentin). Furthermore, the mechanism of harm you quote

Even in a panel or multiple round interview, it usually only takes one no to end the process for the candidate. So I don’t see how this is any worse.

I agree. The current system incentivizes lying. If a healthcare worker tells the truth about not being able to complete something, they often open themselves up to civil and criminal liability for negligence and failing to meet standard of
