Dang, I used to have so many Juno disks. What a flashback.

Math**2

Using your own WiFi router also bypasses the wireless security settings to access the school network.

Some resources are only available while on the network (printers, access to library, academic papers, other student hardware). Now imagine a random person in a coffee shop next door had u limited access to these resources via an unmanaged access point.

I hope he loses by 100,000 votes in Florida so he can’t as easily whine about the result.

I refuse to put anything on my phone, she as naked as the day I got her.

A live stream with tens of thousands of simultaneous viewers is, almost by definition, a scheduled DDOS. Even Apple struggled for years to get it right for their WWDC Keynote events back when they were live.

Fundamentals: Intel powers the US military industrial complex, they’ll weather this storm.

Yep, and Llama 3.1 just came out, which is the most open state-of-the-art LLM out right now.

I agree, the speculative execution failure feels like the start of the bad times for modern Intel.

This.

You’d be surprised how much of a place’s physical infrastructure depends on a physical line. Automated fire alerts for high rises, security alarms, remote access for gates and doors, backup phone connections. A lot of this still uses old physical lines because it is easy to fix and highly reliable.

Now consider the infrastructure needed for specialized services like EMS, police, secure and classified buildings, federal agencies, embassies, smart traffic signals. Shutting down a network like that has massive implications for anything in society that relies on it, which is well beyond your cell phone plan.

The S-IVB-506.

This was the third stage of the launch vehicle for Apollo 11. After entering Earth orbit, the S-IVB rocket was responsible for the translunar injection burn. Once the burn was complete, the command module, LEM, astronauts and the spent rocket were then coasting to the moon. The astronauts would detach the CSM, pitch up, translate in, extract the LEM, then thrust with RCS to get clear of the S-IVB. At this point, the rocket is still on a coarse to the moon.

Many of them orbit between the Earth and moon to this day. One is speculated to orbit between the Earth and Sun. Many impacted the lunar surface, including the one from Apollo 13.

The S-IVB-506 rocket was the one that carried Apollo 11 to the moon. It’s a piece of human history, floating silently in a heliocentric orbit above us.

To elaborate, photons do not have mass. Radiation has no mass. Because they have no mass, they can travel at the speed of light without distorting space and time.

$350k includes the salary but also all of the health insurance benefits, taxes, stock options, office space and perks, compute hardware, software services… the works. An employer will have an averaged overhead factor for their skilled workforce, which can be anywhere between 1.5 and 2.5 typically. A worker with an annual pre-tax salary of $140k could cost Google $350k in overall expenses per year. Labor is expensive.

Also, these people weren’t just making simple Python scripts. Most of them were contributing core functionality into Python itself and managing the internal Python version and the ecosystem of Google software stacks that depend on it.

Only one has sea rats, though.

They don’t actually know the final amount, but they do have an independent expectation for certain items.

If your job withholds income tax then it is paid quarterly to the government, so they know how much you made and how much taxes you should be paying.

If you win a large sum of money in the stock market or gambling at a casino then the broker or management company reports a tax bill to the IRS. The same happens for large early withdrawals of retirement funds.

They also know information based on previous returns, like how many kids you have or if you own a home.

They may not know it down to the dollar amount you’ll be paying because of the complexity of the US tax code and the deductions you’ll claim. For example, the government has no record of you purchasing a $600 electric car charger but you can claim that on your taxes to reduce your tax liability. That being said, if you under-report the amount you made at your job they will almost surely audit you if the number reported by your employer doesn’t match the number you provide.

Yes, pretty sure on both accounts.

You all need to look up what a land lease is, and the havoc it can cause for condo owners in places like CA.

The Chevy Volt PHEV was an absolutely fantastic car, I was very sad the day I sold it and even more sad when GM said they were discontinuing the line. Whoever brings a PHEV truck to the market with 100 miles of all-EV range, I’ll buy it day one.

Nah, they will simply sell the planes to other markets. I’m sure there are plenty of non-US airlines willing to gobble up planes at a discount. The pundit and lobby machine would get engaged and magically there would be a big industry bailout to cover the losses.

Pretty sure the 5th Amendment doesn’t protect against obstruction of justice if you knowingly wipe your phone while under custody
