This was why I stuck with stable DSL as opposed to cable that slowed drastically during peak hours and had ping times that made online gaming a surreal experience.
Cars don't land, so that isn't relevant, except maybe parking. But at no time in a car, even on an open empty highway, are you allowed to take your hands off with Tesla Autopilot. At least according to Tesla.
How is it different? Only when landing is an aircraft ever supposed to be within miles of something it might run into. Sounds like landing is closer to the environment cars operate in, rather than flying.
Too many intersections in my town where you can't do that. Either buildings tight to the road or roads meet at a weird angle. The most common I see is when someone is watching traffic to turn right on red and the light changes green, they don't notice because the cross traffic doesn't slow until the last moment.
Usually seems to be someone sight seeing off to the side because the lights take so long to cycle. Happens to me once in a while when I've got a problem stuck in my head on the way home from work. When there is traffic to watch I can stop thinking about work but harder to do sitting at a light.
Great as long as you don't have to debug. If you have to debug, the results often are cleaner for me to have an appropriate number of if statements. If the nested loops or if statements are getting excessive, this is a strong indication the function needs to be broken up as opposed to sticking in a bunch of returns.
Well, I'm in the US where 13.6% of drivers completely suck and screw up driving for the rest of us. That includes people who somehow seem surprised that the light turned green, and sit there completely unprepared for what to do next. Meanwhile, 4 cars that could have followed through are stuck waiting on the next.
So I welcome our green-light warning overlords.
Most of the time it is just someone who got distracted, which isn't particularly dangerous when sitting at a light. I don't think a countdown will help with a lot of cases, not to mention most people only hesitate for a second or less before people are honking at them.
I never leave the second the light turns green as I see at least one car a month blow the red so late I would have been nailed if I started moving the second the light went green. I'd rather be a half a second late through the light, rather than have a totalled car.
I've seen code that avoids this, or avoids multiple returns from a function, and the result was very difficult to understand. Either lots of misc state variables, or extreme indentation, etc.
Having a bunch of state variables can help a lot with debugging, if not done to excess anyway.
I'll explain under the assumption that this is an honest request for elucidation (but that this is an AC post is not promising).
The article is not stating that it is "hotter than normal". It is stating that is hotter than ever recorded, indeed hotter than any time in the last 100,000 years.
Eh?
"Global mean temperatures in July 2016 were the warmest on record not just for July, but for any month dating to the late 1800s, according to separate just-released analyses."
You can also put five arrows in a deer and have it run off with all your arrows, or have the arrows snap on impact. Arrows also have significantly less range and a much higher skill requirement. Crossbow bolts probably would be better, though the crossbow may not last forever.
If you don't care, why do you bother posting about how much you don't care? A lot of people do care and your post's sole purpose is to say how much you don't want to participate in the conversation.
So you are saying only one side of the conversation (do care) should weigh in?
I've seen one movie since 2012 just because it costs too much compared to renting a crappy movie and isn't worth taking the time to drive there to boot. Not enough time in the week to waste on such things.
This is why I don't actually short, or usually even buy individualy, stocks. I just crack wise about it on discussion forums. I much prefer funds and long term for actual investing.
Or you could have just used the ISO standard format, which also has the nice property that it's easy to sort: yyyy-mm-dd. ISO dates are big endian. UK dates are little endian. US dates are VAX byte order.

Well you should be able to uninstall updates and deactivate... Still uses up memory I think.
Same thing here. Charter has been a pretty good company (if you aren't trying to get a cable card) but I'd still like options.

Are you suggesting people who don't care have anything meaningful to say?
They often seem to be very vocal.
You can also put five arrows in a deer and have it run off with all your arrows, or have the arrows snap on impact. Arrows also have significantly less range and a much higher skill requirement. Crossbow bolts probably would be better, though the crossbow may not last forever.

Much like Intel's tick-tock approach on a larger scale. That didn't slow down CPU progress much.
CGI is fine, spending all of the time working CGI and no time on gameplay is a problem.
What if the TV refuses to function without a network connection?
Bored Walmart employee: "Why are you returning this item."
Shopper: "The TV doesn't work."
Bored Walmart employee: "OK, please sign here."
I don't have one. There is no need. If you cannot afford to buy something with cash, then you can do without it.
No credit card, no cellphone, no car. Still function just fine in modern society. The freedom is well worth doing without these things.
Cash's cash back policy is lousy so I use a nice cash back credit card and pay it off weekly.

Why is because people like to be heard, even if no one is listening. Quite similar to Slashdot I think...

Knew I should have shorted Nintendo when I saw the articles saying their share prices sky rocketed with the release of Pokemon.
Your first world problem must be so tragic.
So says the person posting anonymously on a first world topic forum.
I'd like to see this with bluetooth instead of a dock so you can just leave the phone in your pocket. Not sure if the bandwidth would work though.

Bah, who wants universal when my way is right!
Comcast is really bad. But when you live in area that actually has competition they get better.
Ex. In my area ATT began a fiber rollout and Comcast suddenly discovered customer service and competitive pricing.
That is one thing I respect about Charter, no competition in my area but the customer service is pretty good. Though maybe I'm just lucky.
