There will never be just one language.

Well, the rule of thumb is 0.3sec (that is what we learn in driving school).
Mine is around 0.1sec
No idea how your author comes to 3.2sec reaction time. Suppose you drive 100km/h (~62mph), you drive 27m/sec... 3.2sec reaction time would yield in about 90m driving distance. That clearly makes sense, or?
The typical response/reaction time is 0.3s A car does not decelerate with 1g... it is more somewhere between 0.5g and 0.7g (well, a Porsche actually decelerates with a bit more than 1g)
Anyway, I made the math in my head, using rule of thumb formulas and shifting back and force between km/h and mph. It is not important if I'm off +/- 50% The rough numbers are good enough imho.
The lady was about 15 yards away... total distance to brake from 35mph is about 20 yards in perfect conditions (not counting reaction time, which would eat already 10 yards), and 40 yards in general.
I don't think this is a problem with autonomous cars in general, but a problem with Uber's 'I got mine, fuck everyone else' mentality towards everything. True. A car without LIDAR and various RADARs and ultrasonic sensors for road texture is not really self driving ready. This car basically only had an auto pilot, lane detection and sign detection. Pedestrian detection failed due to bad light/camera conditions.
It is actually confusing that the car did not do an emergency break. Would still have hit the woman, but she perhaps had survived.
Hard to judge, but I think she showed up in the light at about 15 yards distance. The car was driving about 35mph, over 15 yards it should have braked below 30mph... not sure if that had helped much as that is roughly equivalent to a drop from 25 yards height (I'm to lazy to calculate it exactly).
... however the test driver did not really pay attention.
Being test driver is obviously a fucked up job. 99% is killing time and 1% is killing time.
In Germany there is not one test driver but 3... one who would react if something goes wrong and 2 to write protocols about notable stuff.
In this case it is notable that the lights are configured incorrect. They barely shine 15 yards ahead, that is definitely wrong, and a driver or the automatic driving system should adjust speed to about 1/3rd of what it was driving.
On the other hand I'm super bad with names, I basically only know them 'passively'. You can ask me: do you know Zuckerberg? I would say yes. But if you asked me for tech leaders I would first of all not call him a tech leader and secondly his name would not come to my mind anyway.
Ah. I forgot to adress point 3) I knew you would give that braindead answer, when I made my previous post.
It is faster to type j 3 times than first to count the lines and then decide to type 3j.
Everyone uses [line number]g when he knows the line number and it is more than a few lines away. No idea why you want to teach/preach no brainers, when they are actually wrong:D
You do know that you can move around with [ and ] in structured text, like C?
Anyway, have fun preaching the merits of vim to professioanl vim users, it seems to be important for you.
I don't know why you want to praise the merits of vim to me. I told you already when I work on the CLI, I use vim exclusively. And I hit ESC, because my left pinky easy reaches it, CTRL-C are two keys that are awkward to press.
I use vi and now vim since 30 years, do your rant is completely pointless.
Proposing Notepad, even its SuperNotPad variations make you look ike an idiot. It has no single command vim has... probably not even a regexp search and replace. Also: it does not run on unix. It only runs on windows as you probably know, so how exactly do you think I edit a file via SSH with Notepad?
Again: moving my hand from the home row to the arrow keys is not slow at all, costs me perhaps 1/20th of a second... less than hitting ESC or CTRL-C and then going back to insert mode.
BTW: I program _professionally_ since 35 years... and the code I write is always new... so there is not much as of a template in my head. If I had a template I would probably use m4 instead of typing, or PERL.
Most other work is Java and C++, for both a simple editor like vi/vim (even with ctaggs) is completely unsuited. But I guess you hate both such languages:)
Yeah, but we are talking about the AC in an airplane. I google later a bit, perhaps they indeed have virus proof filters, too. After all it would make sense. But perhaps it is to costly or to heavy.
We actually don't 'fiddle' with it. We got forced by the US to implement some thing like the DMCA. And Germany had a slight copyright reform strengthening the rights of creators (e.g. mandatory financial compensation if a new way to reuse a work is exploited by the 'labels') That basically is it. Besides that the copyright in Germany is basically the same as 150 years ago.
The big advantage of Cobol is the way how you can describe data stuctures in code to represent the layout on disk or paper. So you basically never need print or parse logic.
But Threema is extremely unreliable in sending/receiving messages. Sometimes it takes days till a message is delivered. Completely worthless in day to day communication.
Well, since Germany controls the central bank of Europe, it could just print money While the bank, that means its offices, are in Germany, Germany is in no way controlling the european currency. And if you had followed recent developments you would see we are far from "printing money".
President of the EU central bank is the italian Mario Draghi.
I'm not sure if the AC can filter virus, I doubt it however. For certain the AC causes "wind" inside of the fuselage and can so spread a simple sneeze much farer then just the next seats.

Ah, on that photo the car indeed has a LIDAR system.
stereo-graphic cameras. Guaranteed any of them would see this bike/woman in time to stop. ... the light was to bad for that.
The camera not
However there is something seriously wrong if LIDAR did not pick her up.

And then I move to another port ... like everyone else.
And that would anyway only affect the country where that government is ruling over.
So no: no one can simply block and arbitrary port on the internet.
There are plenty of comics made for adults.
Not even talking about "adult content".
Also your assessment regarding skating is not correct ... I know plenty of adults who started skating around 30 and older.
I'm not surprised ...

Based on which law?
And you do know that ports are kinda arbitrary?
The big advantage of Cobol is the way how you can describe data stuctures in code to represent the layout on disk or paper. So you basically never need print or parse logic.
And how exactly can the government or anyone else block the port 25 on your computer or phone? ...
Idiot
A signing key only signs.
It is in no way relevant for the encryption itself.

Trump can't be voted out.
He can lose the next election, just like Putin can. And thats it.
Now you pointed out that you are an complete idiot ... ...

Everything passes through someone's servers; that's how the internet works.
That is nonsense.
The only "server" would perhaps be a DNS request.
You are confusing encryption/security with centralization/federation; they are NOT the same thing.
That is correct.
