Yeah, that's one of the known issues with IPv6. You can still use a NAT or better yet a firewall that blocks all direct traffic between the internet and internal nodes. You can also do things like assigning nodes a new IPv6 adress ever

Eh, this seems to be missing one important detail. At least it's massively important to me as a potential buyer of an AI home assistant. That detail is that HomePod doesn't spy on me. It does not upload audio recordings of my home

More often? No. The pay-off for a incredibly tiny minority of dice rolls will be much higher.

That would be awesome. IME people care about security in principle, but no one really knows how to write secure software.

Employers do have fixed costs per employee. E.g. office space, a desk a computer, accident insurance etc. Fewer employees working more hours each is cheaper than more employees working fewer hours. Even paying me 1.5x for overtime hours tur

Features will almost always be modelled in a tool like Matlab/Simulink, which has a C generator specifically aimed at automotive software. Similar tools that are used by EEngs, MechEngs etc. have the same functionality. The support sof

I agree, shared automated small shuttle buses that travel on ad-hoc generated/adapted routes are probably going to be a thing. BTW thanks for this thought-provocing discussion.

I don't disagree. In fact I work on software for cars, so my career depends on personal transport staying relevant. However, that doesn't adress the question of whether automated cars will increase or decrease traffic. The origina

This would not reduce traffic, though. In fact it would increase traffic, because now cars are transiting between revenue trips instead of waiting at the curb.

This is typical for embedded software in cars, planes etc. Most of that C code will be generated though.

Yes, that is exactly my point. People are pushing for a "federalization" of the EU, when really we have institutions that do the bulk of what a federal state would do already and could put the ones we still need in place without m

You mean sharing a ride like say a big, long vehicle with lots of seats that visits a number of stops on a route? Yeah, that would be a great idea. We could improve this even further by giving the ride-share vehicle it's own lane, then

Proving correctness is not the point of a code review. In fact it would be difficult to make such a proof in sufficiently complex software. Functional correctness is typically "proven" by tests. A code review ensures that the non-

Eh, that seems to be a pretty big leap in logic. Europe doesn't need a unified nationstate, if it has strong institutions that fullfil nationstate-esque functions. We are at a good level of that on economic, monetary and judicial matte

The important context here is that in Germany you already have a right to reduced hours. You just don't have a right to getting your old hours back. This is important because the hours might very well have been given to other employees

35-38 hours pers week is the observed reality in Germany, though. 90+ hours is virtually unheard of here. As is working on a Saturday. In fact 60+ is already seen as inhumane. As soon as you work 50 hours in any given week, the employer wil

That's just not true in many companies nowadays. E.g. in the automotive industry (which is 1/7 of the german economy) I have a growing number of colleagues who don't speak a word of German.

They have started to implement a prototype form of this. You can only be labeled as a verified sale, if they have received at least $50 from you in the past. Though that's still not enough to weed out all of the paid reviews written by

They are selling the last remaining CEO production slots. They are mostly doing it by giving steep discounts on those planes for airlines that buy large numbers of NEOs. However they do not offer the 318ceo as an option to fill those slots,

The pipeline is pretty much bespoke, but they could move machine tools, people and buildings over to a different project if this project ends. I suspect that's why they are pressuring Emirates into committing to furter orders several y

The A318 is officially not available anymore. There is no NEO version and they are not even selling the CEO.

Exactly. The first 25 airframes (of which 22 were actually build to completion) have the wiring problems and were never expected to find much interest on the secondary market.

Emirates leases their planes on 12 year contracts. They do this because they want to have a young fleet. Singapore Airlines does the same. The leasing company might be stuck with the plane after the lease is up, but the airline is not going

From personal experience I know that hearing planes take off every couple of minutes while you are having a BBQ doesn't ruin your day either. I know quite a number of people, including close family members, who voluntarily moved close

They made 15 in 2017 and will make 12 in 2018. Starting in 2019 they will go to 8 p.a., which means that the additional 20 planes will push the currently foreseeable end of production from 2023 to around 2025. However Airbus have said that

That's pretty much list price according to Airbus' recently published price adjustments for 2018.
