Yes, I remember when they used the signal out the back through the plasma during reentry. It was astoundingly good!

This sounds quite short sighted to me. You can’t imagine needing links being sent in everyday workflow at the office, yet I can’t imagine not using links in emails. How would people interact with vendors and salespeople that send links to p

Beefman, could you tell us more about how you know this?

It's actually pleasant to interact with the flight attendants. They have nice things to share, like snacks, drinks, and food.

Is that cheating? Seems difficult enough for me, still.

I see a juggler handling five balls. I succeed at three balls. I fail at four balls. Have I proven that it's impossible to juggle five balls at once?

I'm curious if a class action lawsuit for Kia and Hyundai customers would make more sense. I also wonder if auto insurance companies might refuse to insure Kia and Hyundai vehicles until this is fixed.

Overall, that movie painted him in a good light. "Strong leader bucks the system and makes a product that we all love" was the message I got from it. My point is that the recent mass layoffs have negatively affected Musk's re

Mobile browsers were a painful experience before that. Mobile keyboards were a painful experience before that. I think Blackberry was the only one that did both OK enough to take seriously. I know people loved the Sidekick, but I never us

I legitimately think it's trendy to hate on Elon. Both Elon and Zuckerberg seem to have come to the conclusion that there was a lot of dead weight on their staff. One is hated on, the other is not. I'm still using Twitter and only

I thought I had a vague sense of why they stopped doing AMAs, but for the life of me I can't remember why now. Those were great.

The end of the article speculates that the sheet system was dropped since the tiles appear scrambled. I'm wondering if the artists still used the sheet system, but a memory optimizer tool re-ordered the tiles to help free up a little m

Back in the earlier days of Android phones, it was fun to burn custom ROMs to try community-developed interfaces. This community was always upset when phone manufacturer's made it more and more difficult to do this. However, I think I&

What are we gonna do w/o plastics? So much of our economy and lifestyles make heavy uses of these materials. I'm not a fan of plastic items ending up in lakes, rivers, and oceans, but perhaps we're lucky that more of the worl

Interesting. I was thinking the header which contains a link to the footer could be sticky. That way, it wouldn't matter how large the footer became.

That question is addressed in the article as well: "The biggest headache when coming across these menus on the web is the complete disregard for accessibility." And by "accessibility" I'm quite certain the author me

You're misrepresenting the recommendation. You did not include the instructions "link directly to [the footer navigation options] from your header" or "Be sure to also include some form of "Top of the page" lin

I know Facebook/Meta is huge and well established, but a 40 year bond seems like an eternity in the tech world. Is Meta that entrenched that people are this confident that they'll still be around in 40 years? Perhaps there's

I love this sort of reporting. It's enlightening to learn about the infrastructure that makes our way of life possible. I love learning how these projects are funded and who's funding them, who is implementing the projects, how th

The plant construction is well under way and the freeway nearby has already had a lot of recent work on it. I haven't read the article yet, but I've been in that area several times per year for the last 3.5 years.

Your post includes some good commentary identifying issues with the educational system, specifically about fostering a healthy, effective learning environment as well as commentary about mis-allocating resources. However, it also includes l

I'm not sure our Department of Education is effective, and I think some children actually are being left behind, despite the "no child left behind" effort.

I know some people are making the point that taste is subjective, but I'd like to argue that, at least in some aspects, certain designs are solvable. There may be an interesting period of variety while we solve something, but eventuall

Amusingly simple, practical solution. What's the wake time difference from power off vs sleep for a modern Mac Book? I don't have one. Oh, I suppose the power off time would be longer than simply shutting the lid, too. Can you con
