Left handed people

Well, to get humans to space today you have either the crew dragon on a SpaceX falcon 9, or a Soyouz.

And relations with Russia are a bit tense nowadays, so if you are not Russian, there are currently no other options than SpaceX.

Kinda looks like a monopoly, with another actor starting to compete (and SpaceX is historically very competitive on prices, so without huge government subsidies, I doubt Boeing would consider maintaining their crewed vehicle)

Gave a presentation last year, using a joy con as a remote for switching slides.

Nice thing is you can have mouse with the joystick as well

I’ll explain as if your first language is not English.

Dry means something that has no moisture in it, like sand can be dry or wet.

Obviously something dry contains no moisture or liquids.

A Martini is a cocktail, mixed from mostly gin and vermouth. In this context, dry means “little vermouth”, so the taste of the gin is most prevalent.

So the joke is between the two different meanings of the word, as obviously a dry cocktail makes no sense if you take the first meaning of the word.

That’s not Idaho, that’s Gurney Halleck !

I can’t stand these “articles” that pad the answers you want and came for behind paragraph after paragraph of uninteresting facts.

I don’t care about the cast of the first movie, and what the hell is this about a potential release date with no information?

That reeks of AI-generated bullshit with a catchy title

I have a old gaming laptop that is not supported.

Intel i7-7820HK, 4cores 8 threads 2.9Ghz.

Released in 2017.

That’s not old-arse as far as I’m concerned, and I don’t see the need for an upgrade. I’m going to install Linux on this PC because I have the know-how and desire to check out how electron fares. But I can see how that is not an option for everyone.

Regarding “the company made the new tech incompatible with the new tech to force people to buy the new”, I’ll invoke Hanlon’s razor.

I worked for a software company that was bought out by a microscope company, because they realized making a new software from scratch for each microscope was very expensive.

They did not have the know-how to reuse the software.

And yes. They were that bad at software, when they bought us out, colleagues of mine audited the software they were writing for their newest microscope, and it was so bad they threw out the whole thing to start from scratch, with proper software engineering practices.

Also, there is an open source toolkit that is pretty good at reading microscope data called VTK (IIRC it’s developed partly by Zeiss, one of the two main microscope manufacturers).

but it started splitting my commits in chunks

Wait, it can split commits ? I thought you “just” used a LLM to write the messages, but it can also act on the commits ?

How did you achieve this?

I’m really curious to see examples of commit messages.

And more details on how you achieved it, I’d like to give it a go myself, as some of my coworkers commit messages are less than stellar.

Does it write in the conventional commit formalism ?

An article of clothing can’t be religious on its own

Really? What about a kippa ? Or a priest’s robes ?

The kippa is forbidden in french schools for this very same reason, it signals religion.

Loose fitting dresses are not forbidden, abayas are. They are a specific kind of loose fitting dresses. One that signals religion.

I don’t see them working as a fashion article, but that may just be my taste.

I disagree, the Abaya is not just a flowing robe.

It is a garment that is required by the Sharia law (see Saudi Arabia and other Muslim countries where women are not allowed to choose what they wear).

Allowing this is the first step in letting religion in the public schools in France, where it has always been explicitly banned.

And it is very unlike banning rainbows, those are a symbol used to promote acceptance of the diversity of others, something religions struggle with (ever notice how religion is closely tied with extremism?)

Another factor to take into account is that these young girl may be forced by their family to wear such a garment, imposing upon them something they may not be old enough to refuse.

Also, look up the paradox of intolerance, as allowing anyone to do as they please causes the rise of extremism.

I really hoped we wouldn’t be as close minded as on Reddit.

Nuclear, like anything, has advantages and drawbacks.

The question is: are those advantages overcoming the drawbacks ? (This is obviously an oversimplification, as there are lots of questions, even nested within this simple one, like “will the advantages overcome the drawbacks for the lifetime of this project?”
