This one 3-1/8" inch instrument displays more than 15 pieces of information, is somehow perfectly legible even in turbulent flight, _and_ is more reliable and accurate than a whole 6-pack[1]. Synthetic vision unlock is only $500. This is all without switching different pages.
Get two of them, and the FAA considers the possiblities of both of them failing at the same time so low, that you can cover one of them to satisfy partial panel failures in a checkride - well, all you do is to switch the "working" one to the PFD page, and you haven't really lost any capabilities!
As always, when running time series predictions on financial datasets, one need to use daily return (including dividends, corporate actions, etc.) rather than end of day price.
Simply outputting the last value (as more or less shown in these charts) is a pretty good end of day price predictor!
I put the majority of my cash in one of the smaller banks. The news that has transpired in the past few days had me mulling moving those funds to a larger bank, likely Chase (one of the too big to fail ones).
Even with the FDIC guarantees, I was not at all confident that :
1. they actually had the funds to cover _many_ bank runs; and
2. it won’t take weeks if not months for me to recover my funds, if my bank fails.
It’s entirely possibly that these lines of thoughts will motivate many more people to consider this exact move, putting even more stress in the system.
Agreeing to be bought doesn’t create any obligation on Twitter’s part to do anything that’s not in the contract. Especially for things that Musk has explicitly waived.
Assuming it is not hard (it is). Why? It’s not like Twitter is asking to be bought here. Musk voluntarily waived his rights to due diligence. Presumably his representatives have reviewed this agreement?
Tangantially related, I remember reading the Asahi Linux wiki [0], and was shocked by this statement about Apple Silicon machines. It's fascinating that Apple has a reputation for being anti-libre, yet the hardware they built is arguably very libre-friendly.
> This puts them somewhere between x86 PCs and a libre-first system like the Talos II in terms of freedom to replace firmware and boot components; while a number of blobs are required in order to boot the system, none of those have the ability to take over the OS or compromise it post-boot (unlike, say, Intel ME and AMD PSP on recent systems, or the DMA-capable chips on the LPC bus running opaque blobs that exist on even old ThinkPads).
> From a security perspective, these machines may possibly qualify as the most secure general purpose computers available to the public which support third-party OSes, in terms of resistance to attack by non-owners.
I’m simplifying here, but essentially no one has figured out how to make OLED panels affordable at a reasonable form factor for monitors yet. The type of panels used in phones (and tablets/laptops) are very different from those used in TVs. LG is making inroads with their 42 C2s, but those will also have a high price and is still way too big for normal monitor use cases.
> As far as I'm aware, no existing facilities were added?
Nowhere in your linked article indicates that "no existing facilities were added".
> As of January 2022, the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine is manufactured between 11 sites across five countries, including the U.S., Germany, Belgium, Ireland, and Croatia, and engages more than 20 suppliers.
> Wait, getting multiple vaccines ready but none were from the US.
See sibling comment on Moderna.
> The vaccine was practically ready on day 2 of COVID due to mRNA
No. "ready" as in we can produce a vile in a lab? Sure. Ready as in tested in the general population, mass production facilities, distribution networks? Absolutely not.
> So I'm not sure why Warp speed is considered a success?
Producing a vaccine is about the easiest part of warp speed. Having the supply chain needed to vaccinate the whole population in such a brief time? That's the success. Also, it's literally the entire point of TFA.
This doesn't make any sense. Capital punishment has existed since forever - yet the fact that they are still carried out means that they are not stopping all of the crimes punishable by death.
In my experience, doing leetcode to such an extent is in general useless for job searches. Companies are not stupid, and your ability in solving the technical problem is only a very small part of the interview rubric. I’ve done 5, maybe 10 leetcode problems and never had an issue interviewing.
I’m no longer with Airbnb / the project, but we did in fact use SQS Standard exclusively for job queueing (I don’t think we ever did explicitly add any support for FIFO). Our SLA was at-least-once (as most job queues are), so this didn’t matter as much. In practice it also doesn’t happen that often.
IMO, SQS is one of the best products that AWS offers. Airbnb built a queueing + scheduling system on SQS to great success [0] (disclaimer, I wrote this post). There are many others, e.g., Slack, that are building on top of SQS.
Gee, the aviation world would be so much safer if everyone just listened to pixl97.
