No. My understanding of "mansplaining" (not being a woman) is that it's when a man explains something to a woman that she has shown to have prior knowledge of. Of course, men do it to men, women do it to women and women do it to men as well. IMO "mansplainer" is synonymous with "arrogant asshole", which also has the benefit of being applicable to any gender, etc.
The reason I used the term was: A, for humorous effect B, curiosity (to see my colleague's reaction) C, because somebody had just explained shit to me that I'd already demonstrated knowledge of (and statistically was a man).
To clarify, I'm with most people here - I have no idea what sex, race or creed people are on SO, and have no interest in finding out as it's irrelevant.
Even if you do ask a "good" question, you're likely to get stupid answers.
I asked a question recently about.Net drag-drop and was given an answer which clearly showed that the question hadn't been read. It gave two suggestions (which I'd already discounted in the question) and proceeded to explain three things about the IDataObject, which my question already had clarified.
I showed the topic to a colleague and said "I think I now understand what women feel when something is [legitimately] mansplained* to them".
* I tend to dislike the term as it's become a default rebuttal, but like every word it has its uses.
Why would he get "... a number of very lucrative job offers"? He appears to be somebody who managed to social engineer AOL and Comcast (which doesn't seem that hard, seeing as it happens so often). It doesn't even sound like he's a script kiddie, let alone a hacker. The only organisations that might hire him are British newspapers, but since the Leveson Enquity even they're a little bit wary of hiring people to illegally access personal data.
That's because the tidal range is huge in that area. The reason plastics break down so quickly is due to abrasion with the boats, moorings, sand, etc, which is exacerbated by the strong tidal flows. We're taking about the plastics breaking down naturally which - as demonstrated by photos of seas full of plastic - *is* slow.
Unless you're suggesting that we dump all our plastic waste in the English channel. It won't affect me as I live near the furthest point from the coast./s
Even the summary describes it as a [learning] algorithm. Yes, it's bloody impressive, but it's an algorithm tuned to execute one specific task. If anything it's an Artificial Savant.
I agree that it's utterly daft as the resolution means nothing can be revealed, but from what I've read, the license is free. If that's the case, then it's some jobsworth wasting the NOAA's money of useless paperwork.
SPF is ask well and good, but I've had to configure our server not to reject email that hard fails SPF (it gets flagged as spam) as the number of badly configured records is ridiculous.
I tried to explain to one colleague who had a call from a customer complaining that we were rejecting his emails, that he was doing the equivalent of posting us a letter with a big red warning that says "THIS LETTER IS NOT FROM ME, DO NOT OPEN".
Then I couldn't work out why I hadn't received a receipt from a supplier, same problem indirect hard fail. They were from a noreply address so the DSNs were never seen.
DKIM is also useful, if the MTA adds the header. The recipient doesn't know that DKIM should be expected, just to verify it if it's present. **I hope I'm wrong about that, so please let me know if I am**
It's still pretty loud though. Concorde would accelerate back to supersonic speeds once passed the Irish West coast (heading West). We could hear it from our farm (about 120km away) if conditions were right.
Whole at uni, I also regularly got to hear Concorde taking off from Heathrow when sailing in Staines. It was supremely noisy from a couple of miles away, even after reheat was removed during climbout.
I didn't think that friction increased with speed (though I'm basing that on science lessons 20+ years ago). Drag, on the other hand definitely increases to the square of the speed.
To be fare, I'm pretty sure you were able to imply what I meant from the context. For all intensive purposes, I'm not bothered by spelling mistakes and grammer, and it begs the question why you'd pick somebody up on it.
Seriously though, I've never read Verne, and new (or old) authors are always appreciated.
I really hope theirs an English teacher reading this right now, in tiers, pulling there hare out!
The thing is I love Asimov's work, much of which would have been from the same era, so I don't think it's the style of the time. For me, Asimov used robots, the future, etc as a tool for telling his stories, and that's probably what was I was expecting. Fair dues to him, though, for not just selecting authors like himself.
A couple of years ago I picked up an edition of "The Hugo Winners" edited by Isaac Asimov, they were full of beautiful flowery descriptions. Plot & storytelling seemed to be of far less importance, so I tend to be weary of anything with a Hugo nomination or award. In fact, I tend to be weary of any awards.
Plus, The Onion literally makes the news up. The British equivalents would be The Daily Mash and News Thump.
Private Eye is an excellent weekly magazine. I think it's funny because if it weren't, then you'd be crying when reading some of the corruption and hypocrisy they uncover.
It's editor, Ian Hislop is also pretty damn funny, not only on TV shows (Have I got news for you), but also in enquiries: https://youtu.be/qgTQbmEmaXk
Whilst I don't know for certain what clocks at Swiss Railway stations use to govern the second hand movement, I've tended to assume they used the 50Hz line. All the clocks in the system are synchonised using a impulse that indicates that the minute hand can advance. That way the don't have to worry about the accuracy of the individual clock's movement. The second hand apparently takes 58.5s to rotate about the face and then pauses for 1.5s until the signal is received.
That's for seizures, in those cases the police like to inflate the value of the drugs in order to show what a great job they've done. This was the theft from a private individuals (or organisations). It's not so much in the police's interest to inflate the value of goods that were stolen, and that they've so far been able to recover.
I can't believe I got this far down the page to see this comment, and that glass manifestations (as they're called in the UK) aren't required in the US.
Two rows of 50mm manifestations are required, the lower at 85-100cm from the floor and the upper 140-160cm from the floor. We cut out our logo instead of using circles or squares (we have our own vinyl cutting machine).
They also work, I watched my boss's daughter run across the office towards the door, and then suddenly stop when she realised something was there. Didn't work for a colleague's pug though, as the animal was too short to see the manifestations - that was hilarious.
I never said it's not democratic, I was responding to the parent's comment about not being represented by people they haven't voted for.
I've always voted, but the my current MP received more than 50% of the votes, so it's pretty much impossible for him to lose as the remaining vote is split between multiple candidates*. Clearly he had a lot of support, but then my constituency would elect a fox in a pheasant run if it was wearing a blue rosette. Just as my last constituency would have elected a donkey if it was wearing a red rosette. Personally I'd prefer a PR system, but c'est-la-vie.
I'd love to see the end of DST, but if this is agreed to by all the EU member states then it'll be a nightmare for us in the UK, because the lunatics are in charge of the asylum, so 1). They can't agree on anything, and 2). If the EU does it, it means that it's undemocratic and bad.
The vast majority of us are represented by people we didn't vote for, yet somehow when it comes to the EU it's an indicator that the system is undemocratic. One of my MEPs is Nigel Farage (the MEP with the 2nd worse attendance record) - I didn't vote for him. I didn't vote for my Prime Minister (as I'm not in her constituency) I didn't vote for MP either
In fact, I've never lived in a constituency where I was represented by the person I voted for, somehow I've always lived in uber-safe seats.

Apparently the US Sec. Defence & the Joints Chiefs are no longer trustworthy to some people. They must be part of the deep state conspiracy...

I'd probably know that if I actually subscribed to it rather than buying it in an airport, or reading it in my local pub before the quiz.
Now all he has to do is work out how to deal with atmospheric heating in XXLEO.
I love it. That's the perfect response to flat earthers.
