BTW: Samwer didn't made there money with Zalando. They made their money with a copycat of eBay and then selling it to eBay. They made that with many business. They made copycats of successful US business in other countries and then selling it back. Then they made there money with the Ringtone business. All this was way before Zalando.

You could argue the same with Elon Musk. Just remember he was a given by his Fathers mining business in South Africa. He was doing imposter with Zip2. But he got in early with Peter Thiel and then finally became the Paypal mafia.

Germany had many industrial robotics companies. Not only KUKA, like Japan has.

The idea behind selling KUKA is, the very same narrative like in any startup. The robot itself has become a commodity. It was clear, that China will be cheaper in production of this commodity in the long term. The know-how is not in the production of such robots. The idea was to pivot more into integration. But that is very capital intensive. As big company you are limited in the possibilities to raise money. An alternative is to have a bigger company with big pockets to cooperate with or even selling the business and stay somehow as an independent business unit. I have seen this with small companies who needed to raise money. I have seen this with big companies.

BTW, one of the people involved in pivoting was one who in the 1980/1990 made the automation for the KUKA robots as a small engineering office. About a fews years late he got bought by KUKA when they discovered that this small engineering office had the whole knowledge and there was almost no knowledge within KUKA.

It's said easy. A look to Japan may help. Japan is one of the oldest societies in the developed world. Japan neglects immigration and has strict rules. Does it help the society?

That said, Japan has very different work culture than all other developed nations. But still.

q.e.d.

> It is just slightly more difficult and longer to target it in a large company because you usually have to actually be hired by that company and do not necessarily have the choice of the team/products you will be working on.

There are lots of examples at almost all the fortune 500. Because they do not sneak in as just some random employee.

Cisco is very well known for backdoors in their equipment.

Changed? I never have seen the captial L for liter anywhere from daily use to scientific papers. It is always used in small caps.

Here it is either KB or KiB, depending on the meaning. IRC, KB is the only exception from the rule.

Not really, as it is an expansive procedure which needs to be done on every single device.

Very unlikely that this will be done.

Where do you have the Twillio Verify reference from? It is nowhere mentioned.

So you say, that for Google, Amazon, Facebook, Microsoft, which are among those costumers, it is too hard to negotiate with the various teclos?

> Participants were adults in the National Institutes of Health–AARP Diet and Health Study (NIH-AARP) cohort; the PLCO Cancer Screening Trial cohort; and the Agricultural Health Study (AHS) cohort (eFigure 1 in Supplement 1). The NIH-AARP Diet and Health Study began in 1995 to 1996, when questionnaires were mailed to current AARP members who were aged 50 to 71 years and resided in 1 of 2 US metropolitan areas or 6 states.

> The PLCO study was a randomized cancer-screening trial that enrolled 154 887 participants at 10 US centers between 1993 and 2001.23 Participants were aged 55 to 74 years at baseline.

> The AHS enrolled 52 394 licensed pesticide applicators, 4916 commercial pesticide applicators, and 32 345 spouses of private applicators who were aged 18 years or older from Iowa and North Carolina from 1993 to 1997.

That sounds like more a broader approach then just "middle class and above types".

I can get from 25 cent/kWh (Elektrizität Berlin) to 39 cent/kWh (N-Ergie). It is what you choose.

You didn't read the report didn't you?

Nope, it is "problem" of past decisions. The past decision were, that 2022 should be the end date. All companies planed for that. You simply cannot change such decisions in an empty market. BTW the fuel is mostly coming from Kazakhstan. Does that ring a bell?

While that covers only the second half of 2023, the prices since then have come down significantly.

Germany was never cheap, it was and is still in the top 5. What you also need to consider in those charts, what is the average salary. While it is comparable to Italy, take a closer look to Hungary how expansive it is there.

I still remember my first times in the US at the end for the 1990ies beginning 2000s for business reasons. At that time before the security theater it was really much more like taking a bus. It was really like in TV where the relatives say God bye at the gate, because there was no (obvious) security in place at all.

I'm from and based in Germany. I haven't been much in the US in the last 10 years for several reasons.

I know, this is an old paper, but I don't follow the this assumption:

> The terms jerk and snap mean very little to most people, including physicists and engineers.

Almost 20 years ago we defined jerk into our standards for lift applications. I know jerk is an important parameter for any modern rotating machine that includes gears.

While in lift applications it is known as the roller coaster effect, people in different parts of the world have a different taste on when they want to use a lift. I know I over simplify when I say, that American people want to have the gut feeling when riding a lift, especially an express lift in those high buildings. In difference in Asian countries the lift ride must be smooth as possible. They don't like to have the feeling of riding a lift at all. In Europe it is something in between. Lift manufacturers have to respect those (end) costumers otherwise the are not chosen.

The same in any rotating machine with some sort of gears. Because jerk and those higher orders contribute to the wear and tear of gears. As you want to have longer lasting gears many modern machine manufacturers limit those parameters to reduce wear and tear. So, with a little software change I can demand a higher price because service and maintenance can be reduced.

The high was between 2006 and 2011 (including both years). Interestingly it started way before the financial crises, when the interest rates were still high. The with the cheap money as the interest rates were declining year over year the bankruptcy rates were declining as well. A common understand of this is, because companies that were on a decline anyways could live longer because they were able to borrow cheap money. But this didn't really helped the companies to reinvent themselves it helped them to stay afloat. But at one point, they cannot live anymore.

So finally it is some kind of a cleanup. But it doesn't mean that the bankruptcy numbers soar.

Try to take a look into the startup arena. Does the number of bankruptcies in startups soar, because the time of cheap money is over? Or is it more that the numbers are coming back into a normal level and in the last years of cheap money, it was too easy to keep companies afloat, which never really had a sustainable business model.

The article focuses only on the near time statistics and is missing out the long term statistics as well as effects of the COVID19 pandemic.

The effects of the COVID19 pandemic were that the bankruptcies law was temporarily changed, which had the effect that companies that were already on a way to bankruptcy could live longer. That is also the reason why in 2020 the numbers were at a low point for almost 20 years. Then in 2021 the numbers soared. So the the 2024 prediction will be still lower than the 2021 numbers.

Then you need to read through any file in any revision. Because if you have a newer commit with the secrets removed they are still in the history.

Adobe is much more than just Photoshop. That is the problem. Especially, if a bought into the whole movie pipeline with Premier, After Effects, and more.

Actually reverse and forward match is important for SMTP these days. It is one piece in the puzzle to detect spam.

I run may own email server now for more than 20 years. Only recently I in-cooperated public RBLs to deny spam. I still don't like it to depend on external services for this, which flag spam incorrectly.

> However http://example.com cannot use CNAME because it is an apex record [snip]. And this caused many websites to occupy an IP address unnecessarily.

That's not true. I have an server with a single IP and a number of Domains that are served from that single IP like http(s)://example.com http(s)://example.org http(s)://example.de

All of those delivery completely different websites from that single domain. You are mixing up two tings: DNS with HTTP(s). In DNS its right but for HTTP(s) it doesn't matter.

There is another difference. One is overlooked by professionals. The other one is used by consumers with no knowledge and just trust on what was sold to them.

That is the reason why other OEMs test such things with trained professionals before it is released to the general public.

But isn't Elon telling the story that it improves overtime from month to month. So you may would have expected that it have learned since November, which is more than 3 month in the past.

Sometimes you can't even update. I have an iPad that is perfectly fine for browsing. We use it mainly for TV purposes. It doesn't get any updates anymore.

Now, some streaming services do not work anymore, because the website doesn't work. Why? There is no real technical reason for this. For some streaming services I have a collection of the real streaming URL. That still works fine. The problem is not the streaming itself, it's the website to choose the right stream.

Funfact: it is not invention by Tesla and it is not that other OEM are copying. It is an Italian company, that provides that equipment.

It would be like, TSMC would branding a new technology while ASML is actually doing the shit.

You didn't read the article in its entirety?

The thing is, as I understand it is not like with the Toyota case that the acceleration is unexpected. In the Toyota case it was unexpected because of a software glitch. Actually, it was never really proven that it was an actual software glitch. Michael Barr just has proven that the complete software was a mess without really looking into that detail.

Here with the Tesla it is, that when you currently pressing the pedal the top can come off. Then when you don't want to press the pedal anymore, it gets stuck. So that is the moment when your reflex normally is to press the other pedal.
