I know a guy that owns a junkyard. He wouldn't turn a profit without the revenue from Aluminum wheels. Hell, he suspected the hauler was ripping him off once, followed the truck at a discreet distance.
Pretty much all Aluminum is alloyed and has to be realloyed after recycling.
They also use magnetic separation after shredding.
If you're making a 60% profit, watch your back, 'cause 'they' are all coming for your market. You'll have two new competitors inside the year, many more if you were in a less capital intensive industry.
Notice how they go from 'a sixth' to percent, lying again. Knowing most people are just bad a math.
So they are saying that 'asians' are about half as likely to have common last names as whites. While 'minorities' are 20% more likely than whites to share them.
Are they counting 'Hispanic' as white in this study? Likely not as it wouldn't help advance their narrative.
Also notice they conflate '30 surnames' to 'common', lots of clear signs of bullshit.
Because nations like Norway are sure to pick worse American hardware over their neighbors superior product...OK not the best example, Swedes are assholes and all of Norway knows it.
Perhaps, in order to advance a narrative, they split 'people of color' by ethnic origin, while grouping all 'white people' together. In order to show the 'people of color' shared names more often.
You'll note: they ignored various ethnic groups proclivity to misspell their kids first names on purpose.
50 percent share the same last names, as opposed to 30 percent of white Americans.
What does that even mean? 70 percent of white Americans have unique last names? Nonsense. I call bullshit.
Whatever nonsensical definition of 'share' Al Jazeera used, the difference would go away once you broke 'white' down by national origin, like they did for minorities.
C is still a _great_ teaching language. Coders that can't get their mind around pointers should seek employment elsewhere. It's a good filter, even if 90% will never see a pointer again.
C mixed with assembler is still common in embedded.
All devs should learn C and assembly as part of their education. It _is_ that simple. Get them close to the metal while young, even if they will never do it again.
She's apparently a 20 something 12 year old. That was the GPs point, there are lots of them. They are the best reason to avoid facebook but love it at the same time. Just like AOL of old, it serves a good purpose.
It remains no excuse for her dad. Unless she filmed it with a pen camera.
This is a skill everybody should get down while still young enough to be charged as a minor.
'Walk like you own the joint!'
Practice in intimidating places. Take trophies like the (police chief's/bishop's/judge's/principal's) desk nameplate. Sure, there are cameras everywhere now. Jr high school is the age to do your chutzpah practicals.
If only it was that good. You're forgetting the peter principle and its corollaries. Large, not young, organizations are _far_ less efficient than you explanation can account for.
His daughter generated unscheduled hype. Messing with Apple's carefully laid plans.
Depending on just how viral the video went, she might have earned a few years worth of bay area engineer's salary. She would have had to have the parts in place with youtube etc.
I doubt it was very lucrative, just not enough fanbois.

Lunar lander trainer had to have been first for that. But IIRC that had a jet engine.
The discussion started with a bold assertion that minorities are more likely to have name collisions.
You've lost the thread, unconventional names certainly impact the discussion.

Anything is possible.
You're being deliberately stupid.
How do you spell 'unique'?
IIRC a survey of birth certs found more than 200 'unique' spellings of unique.
I'm thinking of mixing colors, not materials that reflect colors.
Graveyard voters need help getting registered...duh.

Your art teacher was an art teacher...Wrong.
White is the even mixture of all colors.

Lying with statistics again.
To be in combat in 10 years, it would be a working prototype today.
You likely not the only one that's wrong though.
Grippens don't even win against F-16s. Just no.
Clinton paid them off, in exchange they dropped their nuclear ambitions. Except they didn't.
Name one nation that picked the Grippen vs the F-35.
A quick scan of wikipedia shows it regularly loses to the F-16.
Old orgs have massive redundancy in incompetence.
Why government is so irreparably broken, it doesn't naturally go broke and get replaced every century or so.

Agile is a manifesto full of truisms.
Managers only read the parts you cite. Confuse Agile and Scrum.
It's almost always what you say, but not absolutely always.
All devs should learn C and assembly as part of their education. It _is_ that simple. Get them close to the metal while young, even if they will never do it again.

China is bootlegging obsolete network protocols?
We should sabotage them, send N Korea a Netbeui.
