You're correct that the data comes from data providers. What you may not know is how both Oracle and Salesforce implemented these products: They create a common identifier and copy all the audiences / attributes from the data prov

Very possible. I really like the Netflix produced stuff because nearly all of it is in Dolby Vision When my old TV died I switched to a new OLED one that has Dolby Vision / HDR. The colors on that are much better and the calibration is

I've seen similar numbers on an ecommerce site. The theory there was the people may be on a device where their email isn't logged in. So doing that and then clicking your link is a lot of work and could run into even more hurdles

BMW did this in the 7 series and I think some 5 series. A row of buttons in the center console that you can choose what they do. Unlike old style "preset" buttons they have a sensor in them to detect your finger being on the butto

OK, that's what I was looking for. Storing hits with any kind of identifier is considered processing of personal data under GDPR. It doesn't matter whether you have assigned the identifier or whether you use one that the user alre

I think you should add a bit more information on how you calculate the metrics without using cookies. For example how do you count unique visitors if you don't track any user information and don't set any cookies?

Clever trick. Having dealt with very similar things using Cassandra, I'm curious how this setup will react to a failure of a local Nvme disk. They say that GCP will kill the whole node, which is probably a good thing if you can be sure

Absolutely, even around JFK and LAX this is very much a thing. Europe does it differently and keeps traffic on instrument procedures and radar vectors even in good weather. But in the US it's super common in nice weather to have jets i

Hmm, I thought infrastructure components were AWS branded and business services Amazon branded. Like AWS EC2 vs Amazon Quicksight. But then this probably should have been under the Amazon brand so maybe they have another split.

A yes, for fighter jets on a carrier that’s an issue because they have a high power setting while landing. For civilian aircraft the only high risk during landing is a single engine approach with a go around. You go from idle to full takeof

Not just the area of impact but also the attitude then being an upright “normal” landing attitude as opposed to flying it into the ground upside down. So even for an ejection it would be better to close both throttles to keep the aircraft u

That would create an even more unstable situation. The training on the civilian side in case of Vmc roll is to close both throttles and rapidly decrease pitch attitude to regain control and airspeed. If you’re lucky to be high enough you ca

Seems like Ahold uses a different system or configuration in the US compared to their Dutch Albert Heijn brand. Because here it is still "some random sampling of items" can be 3 or 5 or whatever the person checking decides to do.

BMW has that on many models, rear wheel steering and variable-ratio at the front. It's an option they call Integral Active Steering. The rear is steered either against or with the front, so it will make a tighter turn on a parking lot

That's about taking a different line. Drivers will start as far out on the kerb as possible to make the overall turn less tight, allowing them to take that turn at a higher speed. What this AI was doing is something that only works in

That sound does not seem to be there anymore, but that could just be because of better isolation or suspension on the trains.

Dutch has less spaces. Generally if it's one object, it's one word. This causes a typical spelling mistake native Dutch speakers make in English: we combine words into one that should be two words. In Dutch "eier dop" do

This. For example a BMW 550i eats rear tires under heavy acceleration and front tires under sporty cornering, because it's not a light weight car. Worse for low-profile and sporty tires, better grip but softer rubber. A BMW 550i has si

Indeed, in the older ones the graphics for any enroute flying are even completely missing. They'll by default get you into the clouds at 400 or 1000ft above ground level and come out at similar heights on landing. In between the front
