That's not entirely true. Cat IIIc is "zero zero" autoland capable with no decision height required.

Does the product literally just scrape this data? Does it include the SPACs/direct listings/reverse mergers that seem to be increasingly popular?

Not to mention these are gas giants at a relatively nearby star (300 lightyears away) and we consider the universe is something shy of 100 billion lightyears in diameter. We're not even scratching the surface!

But that'd just create more echo chambers and destroy their engagement metrics, right? I feel like the contemporary draw of Twitter is the discourse.

What does "drive-by-wire" achieve other than removing a shaft between the steering wheel and steering rack? Cars already have collision avoidance without full self-driving capabilities.

Most flight schools have much older aircraft-- think 70s and 80s-- that have carbs. Newer aircraft are fuel injected, but often more expensive per hour.

The gestures demonstrated are easily discoverable and are so widely used now, I'd argue the majority of iOS/Android users are familiar. Snapchat, Instagram, Facebook, Spotify, etc. all follow these similar UI/UX features. Sof

This is an incredible redesign, utilizing widely known gestures (swipes, double taps, etc). Apple should embrace these further, IMO, and a casual-use app like Music makes the most sense. I'm a longtime Spotify Premium user and I tried

Incredible... the most eye-opening difference was the majority of Americans believe global warming will harm people in the US, but very few people believe it will harm them personally. And this isn't limited to west/northeast coas

What do you mean by a grid? Long-haul direct flights offer many benefits, such as lower drag at cruising altitude, engine efficiency at altitude, etc. [1] Biggest fuel savings are going to come from more efficient engines and weight reducti

What law/precedents exist around underground land ownership? Do the surface owners have rights to the land below it to a determined depth?

See other comments regarding employer being able to create an account via POST request. I'd assume that's the only way to create clean separation, even then I don't doubt they'll be able to fill in that gap!

I doubt this was the piece the founders were hoping for.

Serious question: what will the tolerance be for loss of human lives when crewed flights start? While it's entirely different, government space programs have endured many [0]. [0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List

I'm most surprised that they're skipping a smaller orbital rocket before jumping to the massive scale of the New Glenn. Seems that there would be a lot to learn from that as well, with the potential of flying revenue generating pa

Assuming cryptography exists in Kleptopia, couldn't he use a padlock with a combination and transmit this electronically?

Because a simple, but clever, alias that integrates with everyone's existing workflow is a lot easier?

Humans need a bunch of atoms (organic molecules) to survive, and we source that from other living organisms. That parallel isn't too far off.

If we create machines that learn as well as our brains do, it’s easy to imagine them inheriting human-like qualities—and flaws. But a “Terminator”-style scenario is, in my view, immensely improbable. It would require a discrete, malevolent

DNA isn't an API. DNA is the source code. The API is more similar to the translation apparatus, but even that's a stretch.

They really emphasized that this is done on the device, too! Definitely cognizant of the growing hesitation (amongst the crowd in attendance) towards what data corporations have on users.

The massive distances between celestial objects is somewhat beyond human comprehension. The scale of these objects and their orbits is so very different from the scales we encounter on a daily basis. The fact that these bodies can still be

Yes. But correct me if I'm wrong, but the article says that the managers made money because their firms are so large. Thus, they earned their 2% management fee regardless of performance. Should they be regulated? Won't the market

by charlesdenault 10y ago
Isn't this an issue of paying capital gains tax instead of income tax? The amount of money they earn is arbitrary. If the deal is 2/20, and the manager performs (hence the 20), they're rewarded. That seems fair to me. If you

I believe the fragmentation issue is going to take a lot longer to solve than the author leads on. Android is rooted in its open nature, and it's what caused the proliferation of the OS in the first place. It's going to take much
