I suspect all you adults out there have the capability to skip over one small story once a year. If you can't, you could consider reading this website instead: https://pbskids.org/
And ask your mom for a juice box; that should make you feel better.
I'd suggest everyone go watch Johnny Mnemonic (starring Keanu Reeves, 1995). Obviously a factual movie, it portrays the struggles of a dystopian society drowning in RF pollution, resulting in a malady known as the Black Shakes, and only Ice-T knows the cure.
On a more serious note, it's always about dosage - whether medicine or poison. Is 5G dangerous? Probably not in the beginning. But when we're drowning in it 20 years from now, the answer may be different. Would you be comfortable a 5G cell tower mounted 30 feet from your bedroom window? 5G is shorter range - so there's going to be a lot more towers.
Yup, if the nodes in the blockchain are all controlled by a single entity, an ROFD would do. Or maybe just a text file & notepad.
The problem blockchains solve is one of distrusting peers having a way to perform trust-able transactions with a trust-able transaction history. If you remove the "distrusting peers" part, surprisingly, you end up with untrustable transactions and transaction history.
How does a blockchain entirely owned by one company (IBM) guarantee the transaction an immutable transaction history? Is the code open source and available to be run / scrutinised by others?
For seven years, I worked as a programmer at the Associated Press in Manhattan. I met a lot of journalists. It was obvious I wouldn't make a good journalist, because I wasn't interested in the stuff they were interested in. And it was equally obvious they would make poor programmers, for exactly the same reason.
How much does a 900 kWh battery weight? Google tells me that a Tesla battery pack of approx 90 kWh weights 1,200 pounds. My solar calculator tells me it would take ten of them to get to 900 kWh, resulting in a weight of 12,000 pounds. If use a little rounding and say our electric plane can hold 10 people, that's about 1,200 pounds of fuel-weight for each passenger. I should probably double that since this electric plane has half the range of a turboprop.
Is anyone familiar enough with turboprops weights & measures to provide a similar calculation?
To all you ops guys who think no one can run infra as well as you:
Please stop the I told you so crap. For every one of you power-wizards, there are 100 fallible ops guys sitting in other chairs. Trust me, I've worked with a bunch of them over the last 40 years. Cloud platforms have outages a lot less than all the custom shops I've worked in, and I've worked in both big and small. Sure, Microsoft's outages are bigger and affect more people, but any particular company has only so much stuff that gets impacted.
Give it a rest - make the world a slightly better place.
If you need more time to make your c++ code safe, you're increasing its cost. If the business can't bear the additional cost, you're out of luck. Maybe you're using the wrong tool for the job / setting?
They lose the right to sue people who really rip them off (as opposed to Stage 9) unless they defend their rights across the board. I wish this law was changed.
I've never seen 'agile explicitly' saying that. Instead, It says teams should self-organize. Organization and process are not the enemies of Agile. Instead, Agile teams organize themselves based on reality and need, rather than blindly swallowing a prescription, such as Scrum.
The teams I've led or built over the last 35 (ok, only 20-ish in a leadership capacity) years always do fine until senior managers/box-tickers decide we need a bunch of middle-managers and scrum masters.
I picked up a Asus Chromebook a couple of years ago, and it's been a solid champ up until last month, when the screen started flickering.
If all you need is a browser in a box, the chromebook is the way to go. For programming tasks I still use my windows and linux desktops. But with Linux coming to Chromebook more fully soon, this need may disappear too.
I have wished from time to time that my Chromebook had a free Windows Remote Desktop client, a decent free editor, and a few other things. But on the other hand, never worrying about losing your data (it's mostly stored in the cloud), makes it worry-free to take it along with you where ever you go.
1st bad boss started good, but turned bad when it turned out he had no backbone and let everyone push him (and by proximity, me) around. 2nd bad boss was just bad. 3rd - layoff. 'nuff said.
And it certainly didn't turn out well for them, or their online media biz. They messed with something that was working due to their over-sized egos and unfounded "I know better" attitude, doubled its size and halved its performance unnecessarily, and 18 months later they all had to go looking for new jobs because they ruined a highly effective development team.
Stankey better hope he gets promoted before the inevitable tanking of HBO.

The "Oldest Saying" in the Advertising industry is: I know 50% of my advertising dollars are wasted, but I don't know which 50%.
I guess this remains as true today as it was in the seventies.
Does he know what intelligence is? Artificial or otherwise?

True, but only 20 of those millions work in your office :-)

I hope they're not creating another micro-something that will leach into water, animals, and eventually, us.
A well paid workforce is more resistant to bribery. Not impervious, of course, but a least somewhat resistant.
Trump and Julliani decided to debate his competence in the public, rather than the courts. Sauce for the goose, bitches.

Agreed. The OP incorrectly defined SMT.
Maybe cab-driving isn't for you. No worries, driverless will soon eat your lunch, and with a little luck, it won't puke it back up.
If you think they didn't think of that, then *you* should lose yours.

I agree - there's little to no connection between being a Team Fortress DemoMan and hacking JPL's science database.
