The same way you teach a generic engineer to build a skyscraper, bridge, ship, rocket, spacecraft, DRAM chip, MRI machine, etc. It's all the same really. Years and years of specialized training gets the job done. And then they can be a software engineer.
Each month (30 days) has 43200 minutes (30 * 24 * 60), and each song is about 4 minutes long, give or take. I could only listen to about 10,000 songs if that's all I did 24/7. But, you know, I sleep, I talk to people, I read, I work. So my music listening accounts for a much smaller part of my day. Maybe 4 hours worth (but in reality, much less because I tend to spend more time listening to podcasts). So I listen to 10-15 songs a day. I'm not a teenager, but even a teenager has to turn the music off at school.
To be fair, no properly designed modem will respond to AT commands send via the phone side of the modem. This would only happen when there was an actual IRC server behind a modem (which would receive and then re-transmit the sequence). More often than not, we'd use this to try to trick some newbie into sending this sequence themselves.
The two I listen to most are Marketplace and NPR News. Following that: Science Friday; Wait, Wait... Don't Tell Me; BBC News; Planet Money. I've been listening to some of these podcasts for 6 or more years now. I'm also subscribed to a bunch of Youtube channels. My favorite at the moment is EEVblog.
Russia trolling/. They're pissed that the U.S. won't have to buy Russian rocket engines. Seems some people with sense in D.C. realized having an adequate native heavy lift capability was strategically important.
Yes, it is censorship in the same way that parents washing their child's mouth out with soap is censorship. Which is to say, companies are having to do it because "parents" (if they can be called that) no longer will. So we have a bunch of special snowflakes that think it's OK to be uncivilized shits as adolescents and adults because they were not reared properly as children.
At the same time you have similar little shits that enjoy taking offense to every possible slight that they can imagine. These people are social retards who delight in picking on the cultural retards. Now we have two apparently socially inept groups engaged in a the most uncultured culture war ever.
This is the world we live in today.
They are all dipshits. Both are trolling each other. It is best to just ignore them. Mod them all to hell and let the rest of us converse in peace.
Add to the mix the professional trolls that are having fun playing both sides. They are trolling us. It is best to just ignore them. Mod them all to hell and let the rest of us converse in peace.
I think if you look at the user IDs of the shit-posting alt-right accounts, you will find they are mostly new accounts. There are a few that have been around for a long time, but they didn't "age" into being dicks. They always were.
I have not seen anyone talking about deciding acceptable profit margin. We are deciding whether maximizing the profits of multi-national companies at the expense of middle- and low-income American citizens is something we should continue to do. The goal of American trade agreements should be to maximize the number of American consumers who can buy an iPhone, potentially at the expense of citizens in other countries. There's plenty of evidence that we have optimized our trade agreements for the benefit of multi-nationals and at the expense of our citizens. If the president-elect can shift the balance back to our citizens and the nation as a whole, I wish him the best of luck.
If "businesses are people too" with a right to free (paid for) speech in this country, and we allow foreign owned government/business entities to operate here, then we are extending the right to free (paid for) speech to foreign governments in this country. That seems like it might not be in this country's best interest.
So, Chinese trade rules prevent foreign owned companies from engaging in certain businesses in their local market. Publishing is one of those businesses. What's good for the goose is good for the gander.
Once there's enough testing done to prove it has potential, then engineers will take it, play with it, improve it, apply it, then sometime later, physicists and other scientists will figure out precisely why it works and why what the engineers did worked.
What are some recent examples of things "engineered" before science understood how they worked? (I assume that's true of many things before the age of enlightenment.)
It seems to me that a lot of stuff these days is "the science says this should work" and then see if the engineers can make it happen. Solid state lasers and transistors come to mind.
Are you sure about that? From the summary "those who considered themselves in higher classes" where the focus group. Was the control "those who considered themselves in lower classes"? If so, it says nothing about rich and poor people, but only about people's idea of their place in society. All of the groups were self-identified. A valid control would be one in which the researchers, based on empirical data, assign individuals to specific socio-economic groups.

So, yeah, math...
In Soviet Russia... the robots program you.
So that's what the Beastie Boys were on about... killing robots.
And yet, here you are, kid, responding to an idiotic AC post. As we used to say back in my day: YHBT. YHL. HAND.

The Z-80 instruction set. (TRS-80 nerd in the house.)
This [PDF] still sits on my bookshelf.
I listened to the Amp Hour a few times. I didn't really get much out of it. I'll need to give it a try again.

Inflation counts for some of that. It's important to know what baseline dollar value is.
Also, property values in CA rose faster than other areas in the country.

Isn't that subject to Social Security and Medicare taxes? Seems like a raw deal for employees.
Yes, because we know all news is fake. Like the moon landings, the ozone hole, and climate change.
Well, back in my day, we had The Glorious Meept!! on Slashdot and a Clinton in the White House. And all was right in the world.
Now, run along, sonny.

And then, the Laffer curve will bite him in the ass?
They do not teach the Laffer curve in the Republican school of Voodoo Economics.

Fucking Unicode symbols, how donâ(TM)t they work?
2. There are no controls at all.
They used non-rich people as controls.
Are you sure about that? From the summary "those who considered themselves in higher classes" where the focus group. Was the control "those who considered themselves in lower classes"? If so, it says nothing about rich and poor people, but only about people's idea of their place in society. All of the groups were self-identified. A valid control would be one in which the researchers, based on empirical data, assign individuals to specific socio-economic groups.
Come on guys, was this not checked, double-checked, and tested?
The simulations all ran successfully on "Lunar Lander".
The Brits voted to "Make Britain Great Again". Let's hope it's not as bad as it looks.
