Do you have a citation for that? I was under the impression that was an "old wives tale". Human's often face huge temperature swings in winter. In fact we go out of our way to expe…

Is there any irony in a thread on browser malware that includes a "please run this bash script blind"? Not that I don't trust you, but between now and when someone stumbles on this…

These are mechanically linked controls. Literally the force of the other pilot is directly felt and observed. What force feedback in addition would you have in mind?

The legal right is for all of Tesla's suppliers, service providers, partners, etc are allowed to "sympathy strike". This effectively exiles the company from doing business in the c…

Oh, it's not an "interesting idea" that we're teetering on the edge of not being able to differentiate between machine-generated and human-generated content. It does seem that our …

It's not as "vapid" as you imagine. As an example; =maybe you have a family/friend group chat of 8 members and you're planning a birthday party or an event. If everyone is in the e…

There's no moral hazard if we pay out depositors and let the bank fail. The big "problem" in 2008 was that the bailed out banks were made whole with equity injections and then cont…

There is zero precedent for clawbacks from on demand accounts at a regulated financial institution. This isn't even a "capital B" Bankruptcy, so I have doubts clawbacks would be le…

Do you work on my team? This is exactly how we're using Duckdb with Databricks as the massive data bulldozer and Duckdb as the scalpel.

Return for an Iphone 14 Pro or just Iphone 14. My partner did the same thing. If you don't want the big screen and fancy triple camera system, get the cheaper options. They will st…

Caught a medium severity case of omicron almost exactly a year ago when I was triple vax'd. Took the bivalent booster about 2 months ago then went on a cruise and directly after to…

Wastewater facilities are almost always run by local government. I expect it takes time to get buy in for a project like this. I didn't see if there was a grant to cover the testin…

I disagree. I believe the intentions would start as a non-nuclear response, but would rapidly spill out of control into a full send of all weapons. This is the reality of the "Assu…

I think we'd need to invoke article 5 to stop Poland from rolling up on Russia in that case. With the current hard-line politics and that absolute hate between the two, there is a …

The only distance between the Eastern European countries and the US is that the former want a stronger response, while the US is still leaving "escalatory" options on the table (AT…

There is no evidence Russia has a large inventory of useful standoff munitions. For example, Russian has been making extensive usage of s-300 surface to air missiles in ground to g…

It certainly highlights the vulnerability of undersea pipelines to sabotage. If Russia had written off a restart of NS(1/2) this move further destabilizes the large EU economies, i…

No. They are talking about limited disruptions to limited areas due to planned load shedding. If your power and phone are out for 4-6 hours - is that going to suppress your ability…

They would make 7 different messaging apps managed by 3 different business units, disband 4 of them, combine the remaining 3 into 2, deprecate those 2 and create 2 new ones, combin…

To be fair, this is exactly what the TFA suggests: > Policymakers have mostly responded to the shock with broad-based price-suppressing measures, including subsidies, tax reduction…

I will drop this apropos of nothing about the time that Scott Adam's created numerous sock puppets to influence discussion about himself on a "popular with the technorati" communit…

They are doing you a favor. That bag would likely not have made it to its destination due to ground handling troubles outside their control. Just had family flying TLV through Muni…

No politics? My fyp highly disagrees. However, the algorithm is amazingly good at keeping you in your political in-group. You'll often hear content creators talk about "getting on …

Do you have a list of other carriers who will not comply? I'll call my senator about these 3. I suggest others do the same. As mentioned, there is concern about if the FCC can enfo…

Just a note. Unfortunately the Russian's have reestablished the garrison and anti-aircraft systems on Snake Island ( https://twitter.com/ArtisanalAPT/status/1525220038914895872?...…
