I agree - the authors of this paper don't seem to know anything about how rope is made. Having said that... the tool does look like it could be used for processing and weaving fibres together. As for "making a rope in…
On iPhone, bluetooth is presented to the user as a location check. Big data companies will if you're near your toothbrush then you're at home. And they can figure out where "home" is by other tracking methods.
"Bad" and "un-performant" are relative terms and as your company gets bigger, you're increasingly more and more likely to have colleagues who write even worse queries than an ORM would. For example I've encountered…
Agreed. I would offer a PDF version of the project's readme file as a demo. OP: this is important. There are a million tools to generate PDF files, most of them don't produce nice looking PDFs.
> Every proton would have the energy of a baseball I wonder if you could capture that energy and use it to generate thrust. Most of the energy is coming from your thrust so it'd be a lossy process however if you're able…
The title of this post is wrong. This isn't about the 737-MAX, it's about a new sub-model which currently only exists as a prototype and is undergoing a lengthy test and certification process. AFAIK it's scheduled to…
Fujitsu's didn't prosecute anyone or send anybody to jail. All they did was write software that had bugs in it. If you look at the version history of any software, you'll find it's full of bug fixes. Writing software…
They're not that hard to extinguish, you can just wait for them to stop burning on their own. Which is generally how car fires are also extinguished. The good news is EV fires take a long time to burn through the fuel,…
I actually kinda like the fact that whatever data you write to the table will actually be written. I semi-regularly fix a serious data loss bug that has been fixed with an alter table query. Maybe converting VARCHAR to…
If you used the top row more often, you wouldn't need to look down...
I'm doing it, though I haven't written anything up. Happy to share my opinion though, with a bit more experience than you have. The databases I'm working with are pretty small - ballpark 4MB of data per "tenant". So, I…
I feel like there must be better options than resistive heating to melt the snow. For example instead of a separate visor for each light, use a single visor that covers all three lights. And maybe angle the whole thing…
I'm pretty sure it's "we will figure that out later".
Or... drop an anchor, pull the floating barge against the tide towards the anchor when the sun/wind are optimal. Let the tide pull the barge away from the anchor (with a generator on the winch cable) when you want power…
Or, you could just put them on the roofs of existing buildings. I mean, that's where you need the power right? All you need then is a grid so you can off load excess power (you're going to have a lot of excess power, if…
You could probably just cover the existing buildings on your cattle farm with solar panels and get more electricity than you can use.
20% of the Sahara would be 331 terawatts of solar panels. To put it in perspective that's an order of magnitude more than the entire global power consumption right now. I mean sure, I guess one day we'll probably…
> the program is in control of the main event loop, user input is handled as part of program flow Is that supposed to be a good thing? I don't want to write an event loop - I'll probably screw it up and introduce bugs.…
If Meta does that, they will be creating their own walled garden next to the Apple one. Meta won't allow pirated software and malware to run rampant on their own store.
If you hate Zuck so much, why are you using his products?
Ma Bell, at it's peak, was arguably biggest company in the entire world. The new comglomerate of "baby bells" isn't even the biggest Telco provider in the USA, let alone the biggest company in the USA... let alone the…
Who says I'm using their tools? I might build my app using Electron or GTK. I don't think Apple can have a requirement to use their proprietary tools. That would be anti-competitive. If they want to make money off the…

I don't know anything about GridFTP - but there's a huge difference between verifying if files were "transferred correctly" and verifying that files were transferred without being tampered with by a malicious party. MD5…
Sorry my mistake. I guess the wrong name stuck in my head. Using real guns is totally normal, because they fire real explosives (so you get a muzzle flash) which can and occasionally do kill people - the only difference…
