This is an interesting article about what is considered the most remote point on earth: https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2024/11/point-n... A lot of satellite debris is targeted there but of course we cannot expect all space debris to be so controlled and in this case SpaceX went for a region that was quite remote.

We make an IoT device that is used for precision agriculture data collection out in the field, close to the crop that is being grown. We specialize in capturing spectral data related to plant growth and can also cat as a hub for connected sensors from other companies measuring complementary data.

Good question. I would assume that with the visualization being defined by the public-key of the server, this cannot be use to reverse-engineer the private key. Also, the linked paper (I just read the summary) does try to attempt this and partially succeeds and talks more about the implication.

Regarding the last point of US putting balloons over China, that page has the following two paragraphs:

"Worldwide, there are about 1,300 upper-air stations. Observations are made by the NWS at 92 stations - 69 in the conterminous United States, 13 in Alaska, nine in the Pacific, and one in Puerto Rico.

NWS supports the operation of 10 other stations in the Caribbean. Through international agreements data are exchanged between countries worldwide."

This seems to suggest that NWS does not operate those over China but the map simply shows all the balloon weather stations that are part of this system.

One of the prerequisites is that the candidate does not otherwise need a visa to travel Iceland. Which means that foreign nationals who reside in the US and work in the kind of jobs that will meet the criteria Iceland is looking for will not be eligible for this.

Would you ming sharing what you are looking for. I work for Arable (arable.com) and am interested in your use case, both to see if our product helps and to learn about new requirements.

This particular requirement is tied to operating what's called a single-brand retail outlet in India. That would be Apple-owned Apple Stores. It is not clear to me if this is a requirement for foreign manufacturers who are manufacturing/assembling products in India and then exporting them.

I also wonder what happened to Indian applicants in 2012[0]. A 0.03% success rate.

I regularly use Muni line 29. At least a couple of times a week, commute hour buses do this. Usually it works out okay for two reasons:

1. The next bus is right around the corner or I have my transit App to give an idea about delay if I cannot see the next bus yet. generally the delay is of teh order of 2 ~ 3 minutes.

2. The next bus is also has less people and the journey is thus more pleasant.

Things do screw up at times though. This weekend, a driver did not stop and indicated that there was a bus following him. The App showed the next bus was 20 minutes behind. I had to catch a different bus after that. I hope this does not happen on working days.

That is indeed the case. The 'at the rate of' usage was quite popular in arithmetic problems even in the early 90s when most of the population was unaware of emails. My parents still say it as at the rate of when reading aloud an email address.

In general, when talking about pre-Islamic India to an Indian audience the word Hindu is not always used explicitly since Hindu culture was the dominant culture in that period and there is no need to distinguish it from any competing culture except in special circumstances. The claims of greatness of culture spread though out the site refer to a period such as this.

Just like the pixel density of an image, beyond a certain value, makes no difference to the human eye, perhaps the touch screen response time also gets perceived only up to a certain speed. Any faster and it makes no difference. Outliers with above average visual capability do perceive things differently and maybe you have a similar ability with respect to noticing touch screen response times. That might explain why most people don't care so much. Just theorising here, but if anybody has any numbers, it would be good.

Going to Google.com and disabling Instant Search, searching for something and then enabling it back worked for me. Now, searching from the address bar on Chrome works fine and am no longer redirected to blank.html.

Heh. Same this happened to me. Took so much time to load that I thought there was something wrong. Clicked on your link and the image/link was cached. Now, it shows up instantaneously when I mouse over in the main site.

Nice hack. In case you are using Node.js in the back end, you might want to check out socket.io. Provides Websocket support as well fall back transports for browsers that don't support WS.

This post is a link to the original EDGE Magazine article that the first post, a Guardian article summarises. Not sure that's reason enough for flagging because of duplication but I would understand if the all caps title persuaded you. :)

This page links to Sirin Joseph's page as the source, http://weblogs.asp.net/sjoseph/archive/2008/04/30/programmer... That is turn links to the IndianGeek source. That should resolve it.

http://www.wired.com/wired/archive/15.02/yahoo.html Anyone remember this article in Wired from way back in 2007? It goes into the details of the technology company vs a media enterprise dilemma of Yahoo as identified by Paul Graham in his piece and how then CEO Terry Semel messed it all up.
