Israel has "multi-purpose" satellites, but this one was a telecom satellite on a GEO orbit. It was unlikely to be useful at anything except relaying communications.
Unfortunately, you are wrong. This kind of devices is very well capable of damaging the USB interface, provided the capacitance and the pumped voltage are high enough. You say that the human body is a big capacitor walking around, but that is not totally correct. In fact, the human body is often modeled with a 100 pF capacitor, which is not that large. Common ESD protection is not sized to protect against intentional attacks.
In typical existing car sharing services, inspection is indeed done by the next passenger. If it cannot be used, the fleet is usually siffuciently large to allow you to use another vehicle.
I would have never thought that the security community formally used the word pwn. I will have learned something today. Still, it looks like to me totally unnecessary to use pwn instead of own: words have different meanings in different contexts, and nobody would have understood "own" as "gaining ownership of the device in the legal sense" in your previous sentence.
The fundation already announced they were also intending to produce a A+ version of the Rapberry Pi 3 (smaller form factor, no ethernet port, only one USB port). I wonder what will be out first, the Compute Module or the A+ version. In any case, this shows they want to standardise on the Pi 3 platform, by producing all the variants that were only available with the Pi 1 SoC up to now.
I think it is now well known that cruise control does not do that. Otherwise, reaction times in case of emergencies would not increase when cruise control is activated. See for instance this study
The only thing cruise control provides is comfort.
"Autopilot is by far the most advanced driver assistance system on the road, but it does not turn a Tesla into an autonomous vehicle and does not allow the driver to abdicate responsibility."
Then maybe they should start by stopping to use the misleading name of "autopilot" for this functionality.
Servo is the name of the engine. It's like the current gecko, not many people know about this name.
They will probably release a browser with this engine under another name once it has matured more.
I am not sure I really agree for Powerpoint.
What would you consider to be a professional use of Powerpoint for which there is no other alternative ?
Powerpoint is the undisputed leader in animations and transitions, but I would not call that very professional.
Marissa Mayer worked for 13 years at Google. Could you please elaborate on how their management approach "successfully weeds out bullshit artists" in her case ?
In many places, you cannot just put people usually taking mass transportation in cars (self-driving or not), and call it a day. There are typically more than one thousand people in a commuter train at peak hours. The road infrastructure is not sized for that.
This can be easily observed on strike days... many places are completely clogged up by traffic jams.
It's becoming very hard to find apps compatible with the latest iOS version you can install on the original iPad. Consequently, I certainly wouldn't say that mine still works just fine for what I need.
This just means that the satellite AOCS (if it has one) is not operating correctly. This does not mean that the launcher did not perform spin-stabilisation before orbital delivery. In fact, North Korea has already shown the ability to spin up payloads in previous launches.

It did not belong to Facebook, but to Spacecom. It was not manufactured by Facebook, but by IAI.

In this case, "fried the screen" probably means damaged the video chip. The screen by itself was not destoyed, but there was no more image to display.
There must be a simple charge pump inside, so that the delivered voltage is much higher than 5V.
This happened to the A+: it got its memory size increased to 512 Mb.

You will find many lounges over the world which do not offer everything for free.

You can still call a landline.

TCAS will prevent that (most of the times). You cannot just consider one automation feature without considering the whole system.

When you see videos such as this one, you can't help but think that the system seems to have other defects.

Just have a look at the older articles (circa 2010) from this site. You will not have too look for very long to find very bogus physics.

This sounds like Liquavista. It has been for a long time in the making, but it seems they didn't find yet a solution to industrialize it efficiently.
In other news, the RAM on the Raspberry Pi A+ has been increased from 256 MB to 512 MB.

I do not know about the cost of his time, but mine is certainly free when performing work for myself.
