I would go further: this is the end of the US. The pieces haven't hit the ground yet, but they are falling. NATO cannot last when Europe doesn't trust the US. Nations cannot trust that trade agreements will last beyond the whims o

Are you not counting the Surfside (Miami) condo collapse? Also since it talked about the leaning tower of Pisa: the Civic tower in Pavia (1989) and original Campanile in Venice (1902), probably more examples like that.

I largely agree, but it is odd to write that column and not mention Mastodon/ActivityPub. On one hand, it is another alternative if Bluesky falls, but on the other hand I feel like the algorithm makes it a different sort of community.

Nice! Crossing avalanche terrain (eg: backcountry skiing) is a low chance/high consequence activity. It is easy to learn the wrong thing: I did this before and it was fine, therefore it is safe. You counter that with observations, fore

One option is `bld`. They added IntelliJ support since I looked at it last, so that's nice. https://github.com/rife2/bld

It doesn't seem wildly unlikely: there is a fundamental shift in how office spaces work. But the other side is possible too: even if the loans had a guaranteed long term value (like SVB's bonds), they could be an issue in the shor

Just to add the terms: a "grid following" matches the grid's voltage/frequency, so it only works when connected to the grid. A "grid forming" system can set its voltage/frequency independently and can only

AFAIK, nobody has added the weather to Stellarium, but it does show sky at various times and places on Earth, with toggles for the ground and atmosphere. Web version: https://stellarium-web.org/

FWIW, I interpreted that backwards: There needed to be a flying car, so Harry had to hang out of a window in need of a flying car.

Companies don't have a fixed amount of media coverage. Rawlinson saying that Tesla has lost its way is a headline. Him saying that Lucid makes great cars is not.

If this isn't the thing that makes your blood boil, that's fine. The world could probably do with less boiling blood, and it is still early, more evidence may come out. However, she indicated in her statement that Altman asked her

It really doesn't sound like a "mid-level exceeding their mandate". It sounds like Altman was personally involved in recruiting her. She said no and they took what they wanted anyway.

Or: they had an accurate estimate for the importance of brand trust and reputation over the short term, and they've had that short term outlook for a long time. Perhaps since 1997.

It is strange that they would claim that "non" is not a prefix but a Latin word with the same meaning as the prefix that is stuck on the front of the word. It can still be a seperate word, but Latin "persona non grata" h

I think that the DoE's interest in this is more about energy consumption than energy generation.

Effectively no! It doesn't depend on pressure. Basically just temperature (Also composition, esp: water content and form). That relies on assumptions (ideal gas, adiabatic compression) that might break down for supersonic jets, but it&

I hope so too, but how is Lemmy hosted when it is at the volume of Reddit? Supporting lemmy.world on Patreon? Or if niche communities are found on niche instances, how do I participate without either keeping up with inter-instance politics

That's true. As a relative novice to Rust, I'm familiar with array types, but I'd need to look up `from_fn`

That's interesting, though the type inference seems like spooky action at a distance there: removing an assertion can break code. I suppose it gives you a way to specify the length in the examples (below), but it seems more ergonomic t

That is a non-sequitur. Investigators should have access to accident data regardless of whether the pilots did their job. Root cause analysis isn't the only reason: it would be good for pilots to have this case study, as well as analys

The advantage of driving faster is that you convert driving time into free time. Death converts living time (including free time) into death time. Subtracting them makes mathematical sense: you have more or less free time. Though it is napk
