I think the problem with touch bar was that, it completely replaced the function keys, instead of complementing them. Other than that, I actually liked it.
and is it easier to implement id checks for each online account that people have, had, and will ever have in the future?
parents need to start parenting by taking responsibility on what their kids are doing, and government should start governing with regulations on ad tech, addictive social media platforms, instead of using easily hackable platforms for de anonymization, which in turn enable mass identity theft.
Hannibal was basically in a hostile land, without proper logistics support. There was no way that he can stay still and lay siege, only way he was able to survive so far was his ability to stay mobile and live off the land.
In case of siege, the Romans would not need to fight, they could simply wait until his army slowly died from attrition.
Parquet files being immutable is not a bug, it is a feature. That is how you accomplish good compression and keep the columnar data organized.
Yes, it is not useful for continuous writes and updates, but it is not what it is designed for. Use a database (e.g. SQLite just like you suggested) if you want to ingest real time/streaming data.
The financial transactions are also shared by the both sides, EU can also request data from US, as clearly stated in the document.
Both document clearly define the uses cases that are applicable for the data sharing, and the second document linked by you also explicitly states that US has to put same effort to provide same capabilities to EU as well.
Most likely that they are usibg the gravity assists to decrease the orbit (e.g. slow down) not to increase the speed. As your orbit gets more and more elliptical, your closest point to the celestial body gets closer and your actual speed relative to the celestial body increases dramatically.
It sounds contradictory, but think of that in this way: you have an incredible amount of energy stored in potential energy relative to sun and by decreasing your orbit you convert this to kinetic energy.
Think about falling into the sun from several billion kilometers, but just missing it slightly because you still have a bit of horizontal momentum left.
