I’m going to guess that 80% of the US can’t get that.

Could one imagine a material that would absorb solar spectrum and emit the preferred frequencies? Something like a polymer one could stretch over fields to get more from the suns rays.

Can it read windows symbol files (pdb)? I understood they are complex and undocumented.

Presumably there is a similar range of risks among those deployed to Afghanistan.

X64 is quicker to say and seems widely understood.

“autoruns” from sysinternals

If arbitrary thrust is allowed you can move as slowly as you like in any direction.

So there's a (small) list on Wikipedia of "countries the UK has not fought"? Do they have a shorter list than anyone else?

In my BMW i3 I hardly ever use the brake pedal. But releasing the "go" pedal all the way seems to add braking to the regen. I know because my brakes are noisy at the moment.

Expiration may be useful but how is expiration in 2038 useful?

Reputable sources please?

It's Maoni and she is great. GP is unreasonably personalizing a formatting preference.

How about the teacher can't correct the students posture, grip etc? Not to mention they can't play together without lag.

The story seems at odds with the narrative. Why didn't the census take go to Mary?

I said offers, not ads. It's pretty common to interview with several employers at a time.

Job seekers have some competitive salary information though : if they can obtain multiple offers, or the salary is advertised.

In a simplistic free market model, both employer and employee aim to optimize their gain.

The employer sets their wages only as high as necessary to attract, motivate and retain, and hires whoever provides the most value over that cost. Wages are not set based on value provided to the company, but by maximizing the spread between cost and value.

On the other side of the table, the employee wants to optimize the combination of their income (after-COL) and other aspects of the job they value which may include their location.

I just made this model up. Assuming it is reasonable, if living back home near the grandparents, likely with a lower COL, has a higher value to them than commuting in a tech hub, it is possible for the company to pay lower wages, and still be equally attractive to labor that is equally valuable. And given it is possible, they will do that.

Evidence : remote developers exist today and they are typically paid local market rate.

I am not able to fully pick up on emotional cues without video. There is a reason we use facial expressions when talking in person. For a technical discussion it doesn't matter - for a personal connection it does. Another advantage of video is you can distinguish "thinking" from "frozen". Plus, you can tell when they're confused, or have a question.

The NG article is pay walled.

The author makes it sound like a warning label is missing from the C++ tin. Maybe. But what tool should he have used? I haven't seen this code but is there any doubt it would look just as bad in Java or Python, maybe with fewer segfaults? Or FORTRAN.

Well "Andro-milk" sounds like a muscle supplement..

Presumably there are reliable votes on either side that are well known : subtract those from the result and you may have a fair idea whther your puppet obeyed his master. It might not be easy to confidently disobey.

Number of users that finish crossing the road divided by the number of users that start crossing.

In my case switching to a keyboard with each hand at an angle (Microsoft Natural Keyboard) changed my life as the pain went away like a switch.

Or just make the task smaller and smaller. Can’t finish 5? Do 1! Too much? Just get on the floor and hold the position. This strategy can’t fail, as you can always reduce your goal (and next time have to reduce it less)

30 years of programming and it never occurred to me that DIM derived from DIMENSION.

Yet billions of years in, until we arrived, there was no failure to be sustainable. We're the first species to potentially cause a global extinction event (arguably we already did)

BTW when searching on Google it is quite obnoxious that it doesn't navigate to the actual URL but instead prefixes it with Google..

This was done as you probably know [1] but it's not clear that the road surface is a good place for solar panels. They get dirty and damaged. It's certainly orthogonal to charging vehicles on the road, given we know how to transmit power already.

The idea is predicated on autonomous control and presumably the vehicles communicate in real time...they all brake together at the delta V of the least capable member.
