In my opinion, what has made it SD cards niche is Android's crappy storage model which makes using your external card more complicated than it ought to be.
I lived in Boulder about 20 years ago and remember Denver drivers as being the least courteous with which I have ever dealt. I learned not to signal lane changes until I was already drifting part-way into the lane because otherwise my signal seemed to be the cue for everyone to close up on my target gap.
Nice to see there is a way to get them to behave, even if it takes an act of God.
No lines, not easy for the car to tell what exactly the trajectory should be. Whereas humans can more or less guess based on the surrounding and know where the "virtual lane" should go (and TFA's idea is that this guess-work will force drivers to be more prudent and slow down.
I saw a documentary on the development of self-driving cars some 10 or more years ago and they were already using other visual cues besides lane markers. For example the subtle difference in shade between the track of the tires and the lane center.
I guess it's perfectly possible that this would be a great idea in the UK but a terrible idea in the US. Or even that it would work in some states and not others since each state has its own traffic laws, driver training programs and average driver temperament.
Somehow enterprise industry has latched onto the model of 'architect' versus 'implementer' and never shall the two cross and it makes for some terrible software.
I'm a software architect and I have to fight against this model almost every sprint.
I should have mentioned that I was relaying what Lucas said in an interview I saw. Of course there are lots of things they *could* have done, none of which would have been nearly as good as the original decision to cut the scene entirely.
But as for your suggestion. It's quite a long section of dialog for a reaction shot.
I disagree. I saw the first one at the Leicester Square Odeon when it first came out and right from the opening sequence it was a game-changer. It needed a big, huge, screen and rumbling sound system.
So much this. I have tried to explain to my daughters the feeling of that opening sequence with the camera panning the star field until the planet comes into view followed by massive spacecraft rumbling into view right over your head! Truly awe-inspiring to 11 year-old me.
When the scene was filmed, Ford walked around behind the actor playing Jabba while talking to him. Since they had established Jabba as a giant slug prior to deciding to put that scene back into episode IV, they had to figure out how to handle it. They couldn't cut the part where Han walks around behind him, because of the continuous dialog. The compromised by having him step on the tail.
The stupid was not just leaving the scene out as they did for the original release. It adds nothing to Han's back story that our imaginations hadn't already provided.
The point is, why should patches be held back from everyone else just so your organization has time to plan and test. Your organization can wait until it is ready to apply the patch while some other, more nimble, organization can apply it sooner. There is absolutely no reason for the patch to be held back to give you time to get your duck in a row.

I think you will find that the two kids are mandatory for humanity to survive for millennia.
Technically, it's an unregulated limousine service.
I know a woman who calls them Plus and Minus. I think we should convert everyone to that.

How can a computer-generated animation of a tire concept possibly be "more practical" than a working prototype?
The reaction mass comes out of the bottom end.
You're doing it wrong. Pip and VirtualEnv go together.
No... a god!
Hilarious.

How odd. Why would driving stick be a licensing requirement? Are automatic transmissions rare in Europe?

You should make contact with the astronomers that wrote the paper and tell them your great ideas. I'm sure they haven't thought of them.

Well, it's a big universe. Surely the only one on this planet, though!

The dialog itself was terrible. I don't know what any actor could have done with it.

All software?
I write software for a website that hires people. If it fails, people have to wait a little while to get their paperwork done.
While it is not technically "tacking," gravity provides the counter force that allows a spacecraft to steer with a lightsail.
But when you fail to declare articles at customs, the officers don't call it "stealing." They call it "failure to declare articles at customs."
We moved our EU data to EU servers because EU law requires it.
