If I'm not mistaken, wasn't this actually the installer background screen that got repurposed as an option for a wallpaper?

I'm trying to figure out where 539 hurricanes is coming from? That's over an order of magnitude more than there's ever been in a single season...

From what I've been able to find, there were never any actual pictures/sonar scans of the debris field released. Does anyone know any particular reason to not be releasing that to the public?

I had no idea Ericsson had over 100k employees. I did not expect them to be ~2.5x the headcount of Qualcomm.

Why hasn't the first-gen Apple Pencil died yet? This would be very compelling if it supported the second-gen Apple Pencil.

Yeah, they are definitely building SPARC. I had just been under the impression they were trying to do the separable magnets in SPARC, and was curious if I misunderstood their plan or if their plan had changed.

In the original proposal for the ARC reactor, they were proposing making the magnet separable so the top and bottom of the reactor could be separated and the vacuum vessel removed. (See pg. 5 of https://library.psfc.mit.edu/catalog/reports/2010/15ja/15ja0...)
It doesn't look like they are targeting that here. Does anyone know if that is ARC (not SPARC) specific, or if that has been abandoned?

Yelp is so annoying on this front. Click on a review and you have to scroll past a full page suggestion to open it in their app. Then to read reviews they have a "Read more reviews" button, but if you click that it takes you to the app store to install their app. If you click "close" you can actually read reviews.

Also, according to the article there is only double redundancy. I thought critical systems like this always employed triple redundancy. It doesn't help too much if you detect a fault during launch and have to reboot both systems...

Anyone is allowed, but there is lower volume and more volatility.

I couldn't get past episode 3. The many sex scenes seemed completely unrealistic and out of place, and the characters were almost entirely unlikable.
The intro is pretty awesome though.

It got bought by Data I/O and renamed Azido. I've used it briefly and it made me beg to go back to Verilog.

There are a whole lot of jobs outside of technology. You could just as easily learn to weld and make a living for yourself.
