The year is 2026. Surely the orbits of all the satellites are known well enough, and optics are modelled well enough for telescopes to know which few pixels to ignore at any given moment?
ACs are uncommon, yet red tape is plentiful.
> new Integer(10) == new Long(10) // compiler error, used to false wait, really? I thought introducing _such_ incompatibility was not allowed
Looks like those in favor of small government should not vote - to apply evolutionary pressure instead of rewarding unacceptable behavior
wiktionary is better for this usecase since it tends to have a richer coverage of various meanings

the 2009 collision was well documented and there are interesting reports online e.g. https://ntrs.nasa.gov/api/citations/20100002023/downloads/20... which has a chart of apogee/perigee of debris. There seem to be…

How do goldbacks fit into this? They contain gold (up to 3 grams, a non-trivial amount), they are accepted by a (small) number of businesses, and they are supposed to be reused for further transactions.
But why is silver with export restrictions (Shanghai) trading above silver without said restrictions?
Yes but no. The looks are also important. They want 80-99% to stroke their ego and nice pictures to claim legitimacy. The latter seemingly being useful both internally and externally.
Are there mechanisms in place that will prevent them from delaying this decision until, say, 2029?
Ah, it is all Mercator's fault
Time traveler here. Eventually there would be DPI blackboxes. You do not have to be 100% successful there, blocking 99% and playing cat and mouse with the remaining 1% might be enough.
IIUC the critical use is by military units, so a process to list all the serial numbers shall be quite straightforward
A government may introduce a list of identifiers of devices allowed to operate in their territory. With relatively frequent verification to prevent the use of captured devices.
> They are, but archiving without publishing is pointless. One may collect/archive now (when the data is, well, "available"), and publish later, when copyright expires and the material will likely be harder to obtain.
the attitude of at least checking the code before running it, I suppose? Or is the curl | sudo bash approach more preferred nowadays?
So you are saying there would be a limited resource becoming exponentialy more expensive over time? I guess there might occur a demand for such a resource? And mayhaps in that case the holders might decide to exchange…
What would be the best way to grow some small towns into new metro areas?
Check "valcambi combibar". Its a gold plate pre-divided into 1g pieces you can break away (like a chocolate bar). 1g is ~100 of money today, which would be enough for a weekly supply of groceries for a person in HCOL…

I wonder how much of that 12% is due to USD tanking 10%
