That’s mostly true I think, but it is a really useful resource for mods and I completely understand why they use min karma limits. ( On Reddit I just have a min 5 karma requirement (posts only) and a larger range that just triggers modmail - filters out 90% of bot posts and I can manually address the false positives. I would hate to have to manage a larger community)
For my personal projects I somehow ended up with git being on a OneDrive synced folder - carries over the general changes, then explicitly commit and push to get it to GitHub etc.
shorthaul or longhaul?
I think its about 50% on Europe to Europe flights
It be would be much better if they just showed the number of Wats you are working at, and the total joules of work done at the end of the session. This is probably configurable on most exercise bikes, but calories are much friendlier for the average user.
How do you clean them, pipe cleaner?
I wouldn’t call B1M in depth…
Maybe I could have been more explicit. Without the planetary alignment that made the voyager probes possible an equivalent mission would be ridiculously expensive/impossible due to the fuel requirements (and wouldn’t be able to visit all of the planets)
If starship/new glen/the rocket lab one work, it might become more feasible.
Instead, sending smaller, simpler probes that just visit one planet/moon would be much more cost effective, but still expensive.
We have already got a lot of the low hanging planetary science fruit from existing missions. New missions would need new/novel sensors or need Landers/aircraft which make them much more expensive.
Even just a ‘standard’ interplanetary mission isn’t just an out of the box job like current earth satalites are becoming.
The voyager probes only got as far as they did because of their trajectory that got some massive (and rare) slingshots, it will take ages for the new horizons probe to get anywhere near as far.
We could probably spam missions to some other planets, who will pay for it though? We are not at the stage where an 'out of the box’s mission can do that I think?
Is combining microwave rice and a frozen meal portion cooking then? Or to they have to be heated together?
Scotland has “right to roam” legislation though, so there are a lot more places where you are not actually trespassing.
Oh, ok, that’s annoying then. One of those cases where it feels like the person putting the course together has never actually interacted with children?
Is the fact that C# produced executables also a problem? With python you can ‘protect’ non lab computers at the school by just not installing the python runtime on them. Teach them c# and I guarantee they will be making executables to cause trouble.
Generally agree with you that teachers should be able to choose at least one of the languages to teach. basic web dev stuff is probably pretty useful to them though if it includes JavaScript?
I leant from scratch as my first programming language in year 12.
They tried to teach OOP in year 13, but I didn’t really get it until university.
This was years ago at this point, I think they introduced the programming GCSE the year after I did my A-Levels.
A scripting language like python is the ideal language to start with because you can JUST learn the programming bit without worrying about OOP, project structures, compiling etc.
Lots of us have the experience of being the kid in that situation though. I learnt python in secondary school.
I learnt to program in python (in year 12). It was pretty good:
PHP is native in Linux then?
How is that different to something like powershell?
Do Firefox forks support the same Firefox addon ecosystem, or do they have smaller selections/manual steps?
Are the docking adaptors male/female or interchangeable? Could they do a dragon/dragon docking manoeuvre if they all had to jump in there?
Do they have enough seats up there without starliner to get everyone down?
I assume they could just stay up there until another Dragon/Soyuz launch if they don’t trust starliner?
But it doesn’t have an account total karma tracker (it did, but was removed).
I like it this way, you get approval on your comments/posts, but don’t have a public ‘worth’ value to increase - that can cause problems.
