Thanks, that second paper is helpful. The OP is really the proof that passive Wifi is actually useful. In my opinion, the real advance here is in that second paper you cite, the fact that they've built Wifi enabled devices that are po

>I heard that airliners can't land with a full load of fuel and they have to dump it to land in an emergency I think the main reason they do that is that way there's less stuff to burn if there's a fire or explosion.

Wow, cool. I imagine in volume it's within a factor of two or so of that?

I'm no expert, but one major distinction I can see is that libclang would be used in (editor) process, and a clangd server would operate outside the editor process and communicate over a protocol with the editor.

I have an extra one that still works. If anyone is interested in it, please let me know. I will send it to you if you pay for shipping.

Yeah, I don't think she gets nothing. She was paid a salary for many years, I would't be surprised if it was a pretty hefty one. There were probably other perks, too (wasn't she known to fly private for business trips?).

I believe there have been some studies that show that artificial sweeteners affect your insulin response to real sugar, but I think it's far from settled science.

There is no requirement that regulators avoid catch-22 like situations. It would be unsurprising if the SEC had responded in such a situation with "Yes, they are likely securities, but no we don't care to elaborate, and we can&#x

It's a question of fundamental incentives. Doctors and hospitals are paid for procedures, treatments, and appointments. Is it any surprise that there's incentive to undertake these activities? You don't even need to believ

Ok, so my understanding is that the term "dark matter" refers to a difference between the theoretical and observed exapansion speeds (accelerations?) of the universe. Can someone summarize for me why this is a useful concept, and

I'm pretty sure that you're joking, but it reminds me of the story of Microsoft (I think) running heaters in a datacenter to meet one of the technicalities of a power purchase agreement. I cant find a link right now (PR people ha

That's good context, thanks. We're quite near a salt water estuary here, I imagine the humidity and salt in the air also makes a difference... Another thing you can do relatively cheaply (I think) is powered cathodic protection.

I for one would love to see something like this happen, but I think ultimately this will always be limited to niche applications. A developer recently built a 20 story apartment building next to my office window using entirely a reinforced

Furthermore, restricting future sales to a buyer because you don't like that they sold the last one sounds pretty anti-competitive, especially when you consider that usually a gallery has a temporary monopoly on an artists works.

Maybe it was a "semi-bluff", then. http://www.pokerlistings.com/10-essential-texas-hold-em-move...

I'm with you. I think the correct poker metaphor, though, is that the bluff worked. The way I see this is that Airbus knew that Emirates was generally happy with the A380, but unwilling to agree to whatever terms Airbus had on the ta

This is the medium post to garner attention for their journal article [1]. Admittedly the style seems like something out of the "self help" section of the bookstore, but my takeaway was: "look at this new result, it support

I don't want to get into the "grandfather's axe"-level semiotics argument, but if most of the people who worked at Saab in 2010 no longer work there, and the car is made in a different factory in China, it doesn't m

In what regard is that car a "Saab"? Same factory? Same IP? Certainly doesn't look like same designer.

IMO, it's playing fast and loose with that term, but I guess the point is that it's not using CGO (i.e. calling into C code). It is, however, using the assembler packaged with the Go tools, so in that regard it's not "p

That makes sense, but it is certainly the opposite of the narrative that is advanced in pieces like this: that the compliance of a given representative is purchased with dollars. But I guess what you're saying is that the compliance o
