This is how you get a callsign like “Jumper” or “Rocket”.
UUID 7 does not hash the date. It uses 48 bits to store a millisecond resolution timestamp. This allows you to sort uuids by time.
Who exactly is supposed to be fired for this? If you don’t have price controls, it’s easy to run up a bill. If no single person had the responsibility to check the cost, then no one actually failed at their assigned…
> Linux may break more often, but you can almost always fix it with a quick google search. And that’s where the problem is: a quick google search. Laughably trivial for technical users. Non-trivial for the majority of…
I’ve seen the raw json before. I didn’t realize that was an actual failure mode. I’ve also had it fail to respond in long chats but I thought it was a network error despite having no error messages.
I’ve done long conversations with ChatGPT and it really does start losing context fast. You have to keep correcting it and refeeding instructions. It seems to degenerate into the same patterns. It’s like context blurs…
Yup. There’s the concept of “mission kill”. It’s very difficult to sink a battleship with 5” guns. Use them to blast off all the range finders, radars, and secondary battery and that ship will be headed home after the…
I 100% believe this was done by somebody inside our administration. It’s totally in character for them. Look at what they do to immigrants and our own citizens. They intentionally target children. But if you wanna look…
I was thinking of doctors offices and pharmacies when I asked. My doctor has a physical fax machine in the back of the office. I was hoping things might be a little bit more advanced elsewhere. It hurts my soul to see…
How many fax lines still go to a physical machine that prints on paper? It’s a lot less paper to have a pdf of the fax emailed.
I think it’s a lot simpler than that. Verifying a credit card is probably the easiest and cheapest reliable method to verify identity. If you look at it this way: they’re trying to identify somebody, and they don’t want…
United aircraft did a high speed abort (80+ knots) and afterwards, fumes from hot brakes were entering the back of the cabin. (Not uncommon.) Source: Mentour Pilot. https://www.youtube.com/live/Bb4CcoK0KLM
Oil doesn’t make self-oxidizing metal fires. You can easily put out an oil or gas fire with water and it will stay out once cooled off. You have to just let lithium batteries burn and even if you get them extinguished,…
They didn’t make it past the drones.
Fuel density matters to things like cars and semi-trucks. Right now you can’t build an electric version that can fully refuel in minutes. That makes fast, long-range travel impractical in an electric vehicle.
Renewables require power storage. Batteries are large, heavy, expensive, and the power dense ones have absolutely horrendous failure modes. There are other storage options, but they require even more space than…
> they do interact with the environment. Yup. Got plaster walls, vinyl flooring, narrow room, different sizes of rattling single-pane windows… Neighbors with leaf blowers… I really like my noise canceling headphones. :)

They were also supposed to be for state’s rights. My entire life it’s been about nothing more than domination of the “immoral” and the end justifies any means when the alternative is someone else winning the vote. They…
I absolutely believe it could be 90%. And it happens a lot more often than people think. The estimated average across the general population is roughly 1 in 4 for girls and 1 in 6 for boys. The vast majority are by…
That's because the applications in macOS are in the sealed volume as part of the operating system. On iOS, apps are managed by the operating system. On macOS, they're files.
From the article, it was reported to the police. The lawsuit came later and Uber didn’t try to deny it happened. From a civil law perspective, it doesn’t matter who did it. The police report is substantial evidence that…
Emergency services (with the proper software) have been able to get your precise location from your phone for a while now. This isn’t a new capability and shouldn’t be surprising.
Concrete is smooth and flat. Emergency services have easy access. If you land at a shallow enough angle, you’re just scraping. Given how many planes there are in the air, gear up landings on a runway are well…
