If YOU don't listen because of the noise, the natural reaction is to talk louder.
Apparently people also talk louder on mobile phones than on landlines, because on a landline phone you can hear your own voice played back immediately through the speaker. This is missing on a mobile phone call, so people "compensate" by speaking louder, without realising they're doing it. I know I do.
It wasn't a rant. I just needed an example or something that might a bug serious enough to require a reboot. I've never used systemd and don't have much of an opinion one way or the other.
Since the bug causes the system to require rebooting, it is a simple cause-and-effect problem requiring a reboot.
But that makes the summary logically incorrect. If a situation arises requiring a certain action to fix it, the situation does not cause the action.
If a bug in systemd caused networking to fail, and required the manual intervention of a reboot to fix the problem, it would not be logically correct to say that the bug caused the reboot.
Next, TFS used the word "system" and not "systems", so your point is again not well considered.
Without further information, it's perfectly reasonable to assume that "system" might refer to the entire system.
However, its hard to talk about comfortable room temperatures in C without resorting to fractional numbers.
No it isn't. There's only a conversion factor of 1.8 between C and F. How often do you have conversations that go "It's warm outside, feels about 90." / "Nah, feels more like 88 to me."?
0 is around where we start talking about it being dangerously cold
0 is around where it starts to snow instead of raining (very roughly) or where your water pipes might start freezing. That point seems a bit more practical and definite to me than a less well-defined "dangerously cold."
I don't know enough about blockchain to understand it, I guess. Who says you have to put personal data in the block chain? Can't you just (simplifying grossly) put user_ids, or something, in there instead? These then link to your Airbnb profile, which you can kill at any time.
Or does this just shuffle trust issues around without actually addressing them?
As I say, I'm not even clear on how using a blockchain helps anything. If someone posts a bad review, what stops it getting added to the blockchain? (if that's what they're even going to use it for)
Frankly, there is no easier way to send a reactor into an emergency than plugging up its cooling water intake.
When you said "frankly," is that "Frankly, as I know from my years of working as a nuclear scientist" or is it "Frankly, as I know from watching enough movies"?
Imagine what a terrorist with a couple of self inflating life-boats could have done.
At a guess, I'd say they could get a nuclear reactor shut down for a bit, and that's probably about it.
On the other hand, what they could do with a small waterproof bomb might be a little more sobering. Especially as it seems someone could get in there with it.

Fair point. More alarmist than necessary, then.

Software Bug in F-35 Radar Causes Mid-Flight System Reboot
Alarmist headline.
First of all, the bug doesn't cause a reboot. It requires a reboot to put the radar back into a useable state.
Secondly, it is only the radar system that needs rebooting.
And we'd still be there if we stopped to do a cost-benefit analysis of every new idea.
Sometimes humans just do for the hell of it, and why shouldn't we?

Err, yes. I suppose it would. Your point?

Science magazine says the loss may be less significant than it seems at first.
Err, no, not really. It's still has about the same significance as it first seemed to me.
FTFY.

Why can't we all use universal measurements like the meter (1 ten millionth the distance through Paris from the pole to the equator)
That's not the definition of a metre.
or the second (1/86400 of the mean solar day)
That's not the definition of a second.
or the kilogram (mass of a lump of metal in Paris, with no relevance to anything)
Okay, got me there... but they're working on it!
A car only becomes a character if it has the qualities of an intelligent entity.

Dictionary.com (I mean dictionary.reference.com) does not list "impulsed" because it is not a word.
Have you looked up "circular definition"?
^ Best answer.
Yes, we must.

Wiktionary says it's an obsolete word meaning to impel or to incite, neither of which achieve cromulence in this case.
We are currently experimenting with presidential candidates and just started with some SMBs for a select pilot period
What's an SMB?
The system, which has a range of 328 feet
Wow, that's quite specific.
I wonder if it has anything to do with the fact that 328 feet is what you get if you convert 100 metres to stoopid.

and a hard diagonal line for the same digit repeated four times.
No - or at least not entirely. The hard diagonal line represents the same pair of digits repeated - 1010, 2424, 8585.
There are brighter spots on that diagonal line for each of the "same digit" combinations.
