I don't know why you're being downvoted. There is a reason why development volume across states is asymmetric.
Who knows - it’s just fake internet points. Hard to get worked up about.

I've been to a number of big construction sites for business purposes. When I hear, "this is a $40 million dollar project" and when I see all these workmen, equipment and materials moving around, I think, so this is what $40 million dollars in motion looks like.
Much of that money goes to permitting, admin, and insurance. What you’re seeing is probably the $10-20 million that wasn’t successfully siphoned off by bureaucrats.
tl;dr she didn’t send any obvious signals that she was pregnant, and didn’t get any ads. The headline only represents about four paragraphs from a very long article that rambles all over the place.

zip-then-encrypt leaks information about the plaintext. if it's life or death, better not to compress at all
Huh, never heard that before. Does it leak more information than just encrypting without zipping? Struggling to imagine how this attack works.
Apple is a predatory partner
Every partnership Apple enters must result in Apple winning and the other party simply being a subservient cog
So, no one wants to do business with them in new markets where Apple doesn't have leverage
This is why they couldn't get a manufacturing partner for the now-dead Apple car...no one wanted to be the Foxconn of cars (they do all the work, Apple gets all the credit)
I am _very_ happy that the manufacturer of my car is a subservient cog wrt the infotainment system. They suck at when they’re not a subservient cog.

They turn stuff off. It's not a secret. The vast majority of the sensors are off. They're simply not needed in interstellar space.
Good lord could you imagine the meltdown HN would have if Apple had taken this option to solve the old-batteries-support-lower-peak-current physics problem?
“Your device battery no longer supports the camera. Or the backlight on the top third of the screen. But it runs at full speed otherwise!”

Just stop hiring incompetent people in maintenance departments. Planes are falling out of the sky primarily because of bad maintenance and poorly developed procedures to conduct maintenance.
Pilot standards also need to be increased. Everyone doesn't "deserve" to be a pilot. I don't care about their race or gender, I just care that they can pilot the plane in stressful conditions without error compared to pilot quality when we had the safest flight records.
What incidents are you looking at that make you think pilot standards are too low? In the US?

Yes but 99% probably could be. Go to Vancouver sometime. All the subways are automated. But in rare cases they need to be driven remotely and every few years they need to be driven by a human.
ATC is a unique thing - if you’re interested, suggest listening to the https://www.opposingbases.com/ podcast. It’s eye opening how much complexity they deal with, and how frequent the edge cases really are.
Is that anything like character.ai? If I allowed it, my daughter (13 years old) would spend half her day talking to those bots, she's always asking. Doesn't appeal to me, but to each their own I guess.
Genuine question - why do you allow _any_ time? I don’t have kids, so I’m able to make these large generalizing statements: seems like personal connections to AI chatbots are a form of brain rot.
