That is in fact how many manufacturing tolerances work in many industries, including automobiles (Imagine what happens when you do tight tolerances on engines that constantly expand and contract with temperature. The only thing that should have ultra-tight tolerances is the engine bearings. Everything else too tight will make the engine fail, starting at pistons/heads and going to the cam.) Wanna know why the AK47 doesn't jam nearly as often as the old M16? Looser tolerances so the pieces fit loosely and are less likely to jam.
I can tell you with 99.9999% certainty that Level 3 is responsible for this. Every single robocall I've ever received has been from their networks and numbers they control (when the idiot scammers don't bother hiding their CID.)
Those tight tolerances get rid of necessary flex room. Pay more attention to the people that make the parts for a living and know this shit first-hand, Elon, and get the fuck out of your bubble.
Yes, mine do. Hundreds of mineral claims, thousands of various lighting configurations for scientific experiments, multiple methods for making plants grow without light, and more.
So I do the smart thing - that thing stays on an encrypted and dedicated point to point link separate from everything else.
Meanwhile, you keep assuming you know anything, when your words alone clearly show you do not.
The Chinese already likely have copies of the masks of every component used, and could easily just counterfeit the shit, re-brand it, and keep selling.
"Wait? You started by telling us to get it right in the first place, now you're telling us that we have to have flexibility? Make up your fucking mind."
You missed the key fucking words IN HOUSE. As in you think of what you need and develop it yourself, instead of doing like agile idiots do and use pre-made shit that fucks them left and right.
"Literally every problem I've just mentioned has sweet fuck all to do with the code. But feel free to entirely fucking misunderstand every single fucking point"
You mean feel free to blow through your bullshit deflections and keep cutting at the core of the problem - you have people that can't fucking code. PERIOD. Including yourself if you keep believing your bullshit. And AGILE will never save your sorry ass from that.
"Why are we losing market share? Our competitors are releasing new features faster than we can keep up."
That's wholly your fault for not using your brain to think of what features your desired customer base might want. That's BASIC BUSINESS PLANNING ONE OH FUCKING ONE. agile would not have saved your lazy ass there.
"Why are we losing money? Our cost of change is eating up our margins."
Wait until you see how much money you're losing with all those useless meetings wasting man-hours.
"Why are we being shut down by the regulator? We couldn't change the system to stay compliant"
Your fault for not starting with an extensible and flexible in-house framework.
Literally every problem you've just mentioned would not have been solved by AGILE. It would be solved with a proper fucking coding class.
Look, spend the time (and if needed, money) to actually make a solid product from the get-go instead of relying upon adaptability. This is what will net you the best results, customer satisfaction, and fewest warranty/support issues (thus saving TONS OF MONEY.)
Around the 90s is when software development was truly in its prime, despite the shit languages and lacking hardware. It was that shit hardware that forced programmers to figure things out in effective and proper manners rather than relying upon huge amounts of error-correcting glut and hardware to cover up for their n00b-level mistakes that even a TI-BASIC programmer couldn't make.
Our current hardware is literally overpowered for every task we need it to do, if proper coding would be taught and implemented. How can I say this? We've been doing this exact same shit since the 90s. Online video? Yea, back then it was 320x240 if you were lucky, and a fake 640x480 (upscaled 512x384 IIRC) using RealPlayer's codec. Still, we had it, and when the P4 came around, 720p video was a breeze if you had something like a 64MB GPU.
But people tend to ignore history, so there's your historical quip for the night for good measure.
Cure that disease so the other ones have a chance to take root and you can make money curing them as well!
That's guaranteed long-term profit. you are known as the company that cures things and people go to you before anyone else. What's not to like about this arrangement?
Wait, no it didn't get removed. Derp my speed reading on large amounts of caffeine. Whatever, the point itself still stands. I've already been in cases where precedent was established. This judge is clearly trying to ignore it.
I actually meant to say "They are NOT independent contractors" but somehow that got removed from my post.
This is a federal judge in ONE AREA OF THE COUNTRY. There are plenty of contrary rulings otherwise across the country, including other companies like Papa John's which tried the same bullshit, and lost.
I would probably know more because I was ACTUALLY INVOLVED in several of these suits from several companies that have tried this crap. And every last one of them lost.
"Subcontracting is one of those criteria, but no single factor is either necessary nor sufficient to make the determination."
How many times in this thread are you going to write "X is one of those criteria, but..." before you get the fucking point that they are very clearly not independent contractors?
I can step into the exact same snake hole in the middle of nowhere every time I have tried with my eyes almost entirely on the screen (taking eyes off the screen to navigate around obvious things like boulders, over ridges and such.)
It's a MIL-SPEC phone so I expect at least some minimum level of build quality and functionality and have received every bit of it.
Youtube absolutely supports the 240FPS videos my phone shoots for slow-motion. In fact it is the only video site that does so and respects the slow-motion markers, so the video slows down when it is supposed to. Vimeo does not. Facebook does not. Twitter does not.
Ah, Slashdot, where people trying to extend an olive branch do so while obviously still failing at following the conversation and key point statements like "Cords aren't necessary. Just like a jump drive." thus nullifying their own post by failing to realize they did not read and fully comprehend.
I'm not seeing any wires (eg a dangling cord) on any of my flash drives or phone-mountable cameras. Just the connector. Care to try again? Did you mean pins or traces?
"So, please explain to me your two paradox statements?"
You appear to have failed basic high school biology or human anatomy, so I'll try to make this simple for you.
Dangerous things are in the environment. What really makes them dangerous is when they get out of control. If we don't exercise our immune system against tiny amounts of these things, then when a huge amount become present inside of us we won't have the ability to fight it quickly and efficiently.

"If you didn't take the photos, then you have no copyright over them, and no say in what is done with them."
Did they sign a model release?
Do you even basic photography law?
The Chinese already likely have copies of the masks of every component used, and could easily just counterfeit the shit, re-brand it, and keep selling.
"Event at home I have one wifi for home automation and one for the rest."
But I bet those aren't properly (physically) separated by being on physically-distinct networks. You're still a target.

They are there to enforce the law, not protect the public. Serve and Protect is propaganda.

My 2016 cellphone has that via differential GPS plus Inertial sensors, and is down to 1 foot accurate. I use it for mining spot location all the time.

"60fps is double the frame rate of a standard 30fps 1080p stream."
Except almost all my 1080p streams on my youtube channel are 60 FPS, not 30. Some are 240FPS.
So, no, OP is just blisteringly stupid and doesn't know the platform or what it is capable of.
I'm not seeing any wires (eg a dangling cord) on any of my flash drives or phone-mountable cameras. Just the connector. Care to try again? Did you mean pins or traces?
"I'm guessing you haven't?"
No, I did, and in fact exercise such knowledge across the globe when it comes to protecting plants against pathogens, cultivating plants, and more.
But you probably wouldn't know how bacterial imbalances, even on the surface of your skin, can trigger illness.
Go back to school, child. You failed comprehension and critical thinking.
Man, I'm having flashbacks of when I had to clean up after ITT in the building they rented. Ho-lee SHIT the women's bathrooms were just utterly awful.
