While generally true it's not a perfect signal. I would love to roll out SSO for my family off of my domain but can't because of the SSO tax. I realize power users like me are in the extreme minority

> It's only the part in parenthesis that disturbs people. If I told you that you can now search your drop box via open AI's integration, you wouldn't really care.

I would. I have had lawyers and real estate agents in the past who use Dropbox for sensitive and ID verification documents. I don't want that data going anywhere it wasn't explicitly sent to.

I can understand why some users might not care, but you can't generalize your own opinions/needs/requirements on the matter to everyone. That's the whole reason settings exist.

While soy is gluten free, most soy sauce brands are not..

I've been a hockey fan my entire life and now I can't watch any NHL games anymore. I made two attempts at watching my team's first game of the season. I didn't make it past the halfway point. I just can't focus, and the ads were giving me headaches to boot.

I went through a stage of mourning for the first couple weeks of the season. Now I'm just at a loss of what to do with my time...

Small claims court is always an option in the US

They enforce it at Yellowstone

They run the background checks, but they might not take any action on the result of them. A friend of a friend is a registered sex offender who drives for them. They stalled him for about 6 months, but ended up allowing him to drive when he was still willing to after the long delay.

Interesting. The closest we have to that is largest hardware store around here will allow you to rent a truck for $20 for an hour with a $150 deposit. There's no trailer option.

There are a couple companies here that rent trucks/trailers and focus their marketing towards people that are moving. Their base rates for the trucks and trailers are the same and start in the same $20 ballpark. The trucks are a little more expensive for long moves as they have a per-mile surcharge if you exceed a certain distance with them. Most people still opt for the trucks over the trailers with the rarity of cars with tow hitches installed.

They exist here in the US but they aren't very popular. I think it's mainly a parking problem. Most urban and suburban zoning codes prohibit parking them outside. In urban areas with street parking you can't park them on the street.

It's very rare to see a vehicle here that isn't a pickup to have a towing hitch installed.

I work on the avionics side of the industry and really enjoy when I run into your posts in discussions. You explain things to people not in the industry much more eloquently than I could.

While I'm not in my company's fly-by-wire group currently, I have been in the past.

> Two independent computers controlled the automatic stab trim. They were custom computers, designed by two groups that weren't allowed to talk to each other. They used different CPUs, different algorithms, and different programming languages. The computed commands were run through a comparator. If they differed, both computers were instantly electrically isolated from the trim system.

Current thinking in fly-by-wire software is a little different. There have been studies performed that showed nearly all software issues at this level are due to a misinterpretation of requirements. These misinterpretations were shared between the different software teams, leading to the two different units outputting identical (though incorrect) commands which would pass through the comparitors. So in essence you're doubling your development cost for no actual safety benefit. I can see if I can dig up those studies if you'd like. It will take a while, though, since almost everyone at my company is already on vacation for the year.

I'm simplifying what follows a little as I'm not sure how in depth I can get on our hardware design. What we do now is essentially run the same fly-by-wire software over multiple computers. These computers must have a mix of CPUs, including having differing endianness. If a single computer miscompares the comparitor turns that computer off. If more end up failing, the system falls back to a much simpler failsafe mode without a CPU in the loop where the flight controls in the cockpit are interpretated directly by the electronics that drive the actuators.

The waves of deactivations on the ground stations have already started. We're on a trajectory of GPS over-reliance.

Does Speedify have any plans to support FreeBSD? It's still used pretty heavily over Linux in the router space.

You will likely be disappointed in cellular availability during a long blackout. I'm in the Midwest in a metro area of ~200k. We had a major weather event which took out power for 1-2 weeks. Almost all cellular towers went offline as soon as their batteries died. It seemed there were only 1-2 towers in the entire area that had generator backups.

Large bars which draw a lot of tourists use a book like this to guide them through validating out-of-state licenses.

It sounds like the device was defective, not modified. This is a poor example for your assertion.

> A lot of them get advice from the internet or their parents that tends to be overly cynical and often dated. When we review resumes we often have to remove Microsoft Word and Excel from the qualifications section of programmer resumes because they heard from the internet or a parent that they’ll be rejected by automated HR software without those keyword. I still see people trying to keyword stuff their resumes with 6pt white text at the bottom (don’t do this)

Why is this a bad idea? I've had my resume auto filtered out in the past and the keywords at the bottom seem to have helped. I don't try to hide it in white-on-white text, though. I have an explicit section (though in a very small font) titled something like "automated scanner keywords"

I was very confused by this comment until I realized that this is a different project from the Trillian messenger.

Do you happen to have a list of the ports you had to open?

ATC operates on secondary radar (transponder data). If there is no transponder, it would not appear on their scope. Some facilities have an option to switch to primary radar, but it is not usually monitored.
