Especially because in most ways it actually isn't better in the app. Even on an iPhone 17 it is usually quite slow and hangs frequently. Offline reading SHOULD be a clear advantage to the app, but it is completely inconsistent about what will be available offline, when I'm sure a significant fraction of their readership are New Yorkers trying to read while commuting on the subway.
I don't believe so, unless the object had such a powerful telescope it could image Hubble itself in high definition and literally see where it was pointing, which would require an absurdly large lens. A telescope like Hubble absorbing light is purely passive, it doesn't emit anything "back" that would tell the observed object it is being observed.
I would counter that the "modern" Penn Station (at least prior to the recent projects) is worse at that "fast and safely" objective. It's much harder to navigate a maze of tunnels than to navigate a large, open station headhouse with far fewer obstacles between you and the track or exit you're trying to reach.
With the new Moynihan Train Hall, built in the same style as the original Penn Station, I can simply enter from the street and walk in a straight line to the escalator down to a specific track. No more maze of tunnels (getting to the subway is another matter).
Lots of other stations built in the same style in the same period remain well-preserved and functional- Grand Central in the same city, opened 3 years later, being a prime example.
There's a difference between concluding that scientific research is wrong and concluding that it is fraudulent. The latter is a claim about the character of the scientist involved, alleging them to have taken unethical if not illegal action. If that is provably false then it can certainly rise to the level of defamation.
Streets may not have gotten wider in a given city/town since then, but there's been a lot of population growth and development in that time in the sunbelt where urban planning has favored very wide roads. So even if roads themselves aren't getting wider, people have been moving to places where roads are wide.
That may be true, but it's worth noting that the length of a "generation" of stars varies wildly depending on the type of star. Stars like our Sun might only live 10 billion years or so, but red dwarfs live 100 billion years or more so we could presumably live around them long after all the Sun-like stars have burned out.
Previous company I worked at had a policy that you needed to include a photo of yourself with the current date written with any PW reset request, but of course that doesn't work as well at a 2000 person company as at a 100 person startup where IT knows everyone's face.
Plus that's still vulnerable to googling photos of the employee you're impersonating and photoshopping a piece of paper with the date.
Downtown Brooklyn has a lot more new luxury highrise buildings with fiber wired in from day 1, as compared to pre-war brownstones in other neighborhoods where even _if_ Verizon has fiber on your block your elderly out-of-state landlady and absentee super won't let them in to wire up the unit.
When someone has a long history of making false claims, it doesn't mean their current claim is automatically wrong but it does mean their argument for it doesn't count as strong evidence for the claim, IMO.
If you had really good shock absorbers you could intercept at an orthogonal trajectory and have the impact knock you into the desired trajectory... not practical but fun to think about.
My coworker's theory was someone was waiting for the holiday's end to deploy something risky.
And I'm in that boat of depending on Slack for alerting... in fact my team was also waiting over the holidays to deploy more robust non-Slack-based alerting (in our defense the product is only a few months old and only now starting to scale to any real volume).
One other factor I was taught (as an American) that I don't see mentioned here was the Russian Revolution. The nominally-democratic provisional government allowed the pro-entry camp to frame the war as democracies vs. authoritarian empires, they could pitch US entry as defending democracy.
I don't know about Microsoft, but at IBM for example engineers with a 4-year eng/CS degree start at band 6, but the bands below 6 do exist, just not for that role. I'm guessing it's similar at MS.
I think the usual approach is to proxy the other domain (or subdomain) to a path on your user-facing domain. E.g. if mysite.com is making requests to api.mysite.com, you would proxy api.mysite.com to mysite.com/api.
Sweden has far and away the highest death rate of the Nordics, over 11 times that of Norway. I really don't think the data supports your point. https://coronavirus.jhu.edu/data/mortality
It was already the case for several weeks in NY that school-age kids could pickup free packaged meals from any school, the change in this announcement is expanding that to include adults.
I too hate the idea of paid toilets in public buildings like train stations in Europe, but dense, non-car-focused cities in the US like NYC or San Francisco also have public restrooms few and far between. Most fast-food places require you to make a purchase to use them. Starbucks did recently drop this policy, the tradeoff being that their restroom now have even longer lines and tend to be nastier.
Ion thrusters have tiny acceleration, which is why they're best on deep space missions (slow and steady wins the race). I wouldn't think they'd be practical for this type of thing, which you'd want to go one or a few kilometers per hour over distances of tens of meters.
We wouldn't be able to see the probe itself, rather we'd see its laser. The planet outputs (or reflects) vastly more total light than the laser, but the laser is pointed directly at the receiver and can output more light in that specific direction than the planet does. Plus, to get interesting data about the planet we need to get quite a lot of light from it, whereas we can get data from the laser over time by pulsing it so long as we can get any light from it at all.
There is a practical reason for tiny modules in client-side JS that doesn't exist with Python: page load times. If your base layer is going to have third-party dependencies, they better be tiny and do only and exactly what you need.
That said, lodash core is only 4KB, and lodash gives you the ability to build it with only the categories or exact functions you want, so I don't understand what the purpose of a "micro-lodash" would be.
