This sounds like the same level of understanding about copyright law that led one NFT group to spend $3m on a rare Dune art book thinking it would give them the IP rights to the art.
The WSJ reported US officials saying it looked intentional based on black box data. The main alternative theory was that someone who wasn't a pilot deliberately did it.
A lot of people in threads a few days ago like https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30335610 and https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30405782 were terribly wrong. This wasn't just Russia's annual war games in the region. This wasn't the US and media pushing for a war. If anything, this was the US declassifying things in real time to tell the world what was happening to prevent war.
In their "basic medicine kit": Oxycodone/acetaminophen (severe, short term pain)
Paracetamol isn't normally an alternative for oxycodone. Also, if travelling internationally, I'm pretty sure there are countries that will consider oxycodone as equivalent to heroin even if you have a prescription.
I thought coming up with primes would be very challenging, but then my first three guesses were all prime (all I did was pick numbers that ended with odd numbers that weren't five). I got it on the fourth after a few attempts at entering the number - the prime constraint here makes it easier.
There are 8,363 five digit primes. If you limit your guesses to numbers ending in 1, 3, 7, and 9, there is a 23% chance of randomly picking a prime.
> I think the reason you see so many EV announcements from Ford (and GM and Honda and Mercedes and...) in 2021 is because they all suddenly realized they need to press a panic button.
Alternatively, maybe because the traditional manufacturers timed the critical point where it made economic sense to focus on electric cars in the same way?
As far as I know, there is a gradual trend to push Mandarin at the expense of Cantonese, and there is reason for concern, but I doubt there's a connection between this and Apple's decision here. (There's a reason I said "crudely".)
I doubt this is the case here. Cantonese is an official language of Hong Kong and Macau and the mother tongue of tens of millions in Guangdong. Language politics is complicated but I don't think the CCP is so crudely trying to eliminate languages. Apple also has keyboards for Uyghur and Tibetan, which are probably more sensitive languages.
> However, it appears that Bombard may have been misunderstood in regard to the possibility of survival without fresh water. Bombard has never argued that human survival is possible only by drinking seawater. On the contrary, he indicates that seawater in small quantities can prolong survival if accompanied, if rainwater is not available, by the absorption of liquids present in the bodies of fish.
I don't know why it should be tiny, given what it's trying to do. Multiple kilobytes are dedicated to CSS color names and ColorBrewer scales, which don't compress well.
At the end of the source there's a section where you can comment out lines which should remove sections of the code when compressing it.
The scary thing about this attitude is that if it's widely adopted and results in Huawei being welcomed (or something that facilities spying), it puts the people who do push back against the Chinese government in the crosshairs.
Caixin is the best Chinese news source in normal times, and at this time all Chinese news is more free to report on the virus. As someone very critical of the CCP, I'd say Caixin's reporting here is as authoritative as anywhere.
Re solar power: the short answer is that wind carries far more energy than solar.
Tûranor PlanetSolar is a 31m catamaran with over 500 square metres of solar panels. I think I'm right in saying that its cruising speed is slower than any regular yacht. A big racing yacht is multiple times faster.
What I'd be interested in seeing is if a big wind turbine could be put on a yacht, rather than sails. One fun advantage is that it should be able to travel directly into the wind.
Why do people keep posting this link in this thread? It's a terrible answer because it uncritically accepts the claim that a static rally at a venue that doesn't hold more than about 20,000 people had hundreds of thousands. Basic fact checking. Do it.
