Reminds me of this video demonstrating this on the ground with a self wound inductor.
I'm assuming the one on the drone is optimized for the voltage/freqency of that transmission line.
I don't think you understand that Louis Rossmann's job and attitude used to be the norm. Owning and repairing things are core to industrial living, but modern economic forces want to make you think that its about licensing and disposability.
Ownership and agency are part of liberty, renting and dependence is not.
FYI Plastic Mulch is very different from the mulch one normally thinks of. It's just a barrier to prevent light from reaching the soil, preventing weeds.

I thought people were using shredded plastic or pellets to cover the ground!
Even with cash, you can't buy a plane ticket without handing over all your info. Which is a good thing!
And, if I had to guess, the booking of hotel rooms probably has more to do with liability rather than tracking. There are plenty of ways of getting a roof over your head without using a credit card; though IMO they are likely a downgrade.
While your statements resonate with me, it's a bit hyperbolic to say that electronic payments/banking are the only way of exerting the control you're worried about. I think there are a lot of good points in this line of complaint about centralized private financial systems, but the ones you're raising are a bit fringe.
The universities seem to have forgotten that there role is to teach and educate, not overreach into their student's lives. College is about learning to cope and manage on your own, as well as learn. Having a different helicopter parent at the university (compared to home) won't help that development.
A lot of these high-end schools have been working to crack down on forms of risk, at the cost of a huge amount of fun and personal discovery. The issues is, this has happened for kids all the way down to when they are toddlers. People need to be able to be in risky, crazy, abnormal situations; it's part of growing up and figuring out who you are. This will only push it later in life, when the risks are far higher, and/or will just have even more uncreative drones.
I'm pretty sure
the only solution is to create more mountain towns and ski resorts
was meant as a strawman.
One thing no one is mentioning is how China is the no.1 beneficiary of a pacified and monitored Australian populace. They are already completely dependent on the Aussie natural resource exports, and are deeply interested in Australia continuing to be friendly towards them, and could easily overwhelm them in a fight.
The thing is this "long run" is a hypothetical for investors and their finite lifetimes and finite windows of return.
Companies aren't accountable to some infinitely long running algorithm or timeless dynasty of shareholders, they are accountable to living breathing greedy humans who want to make a buck NOW, not when they are dead or for their heirs.
If I had to guess it would be something like Slack, Shopify, Squarespace or some other SaaS platform that needs to meet the needs of a hugely diverse customer base.
Reminds me of a Star Trek DS9 episode that takes place in an SF of the near future.
"By the 2020s, those without employment, as well as those with mental problems, were moved into the Sanctuary Districts, which would later become no better than slums."
Ebay is somewhat like this. Though I don't think it meets all your requirements.
I'm curious how big the adjacent parking lot or parking garage will be.
Whenever I zoomed out of my bases in Factorio, I always was reminded of IC die shots.
Point being: increased speed, and therefore frequency, of communication/interaction changes the nature of our relationships.
So the change in the "underlying" doesn't have to be 10x to have a 10x effect on the relationships.
People talk online. Whether that's equivalent is up for debate.
There might be an argument that our new online/text based discussions have changed the dynamics (some could argue hindered, but I don't) of face to face communication.
Yeah, clearly old things were fine, or in many case quite good.
I think comparing the advances in mechanical precision to changes in society shaping technological advances is not a fair comparison. I would argue that it's exactly that mechanical precision that started with gauge blocks that has facilitated all our advancements.
I think it's just a different "system of measures" when talking about societal/social impact on our human interactions. People's minds and feelings don't fit into technical descriptions.
But, to agree with you, just like basic technology changes slowly, human nature barely seems to change at all.
The unmentioned thing here is why? Why does the world with a smartphone and today's hyper-connectivity seem so different now compared to what it used to?
Did people feel the same way when the railroad and other forms of rapid transport showed up?
What makes things feel so different? Is it more competition, and for what? Is it that things are just faster, and the certainties have changed? Has it fundamentally changed how we experience relationships with people?
Are our standards now higher, and is that a good thing?
So a bookstore is just selling colored pieces of paper, even if those pieces of paper are images of child abuse?
Seriously what is wrong with you? I get that cryto-anarchist are hip and think they're so cool, but there is a real human cost here. Are you OK with that?
Are you suggesting that something is a "solution" by shielding people who perpetuate the distribution of child abuse media and profit off it?
If you are, then there is something seriously wrong with you.
An eye for an eye, I guess. You'd probably get more done writing them a letter directly, or suing him/them.
Don't bother switching, companies that can't keep their internal issues private generally have lots of other issues. The devil you know is better.
It's like the kid getting caught doing drugs who claims it was their first time so they should be let off, odds are it wasn't their first time.
I excelled at AP biology, but college biology was a total drag. Honestly, it's just the teachers, my high school teachers taught with passion in college it was a chore for my professors. At least software has more jobs and better pay, even if it's less fundamentally interesting.
This is why I loved biology before I learned what biology research is really like. What I wanted was to recreate life from scratch, an impossible task with todays technology; the logical sequence of steps behind our biological origins is not hard to see and become enamored with, but I will never get the satisfaction of learning all its secrets.
With programming and computers this is so much closer, because these things are made my humans. Millions of man-years of effort, but still man-made. So, at least with computers I know I can learn how it's all done, and I know the steps needed to make all this technology are also known.
Canola oil causes intestinal distress in more people than you know, similar but more severe than lactose intolerance, but it is often considered an allergy. My partner and her mother are unable to digest / have a violent intestinal response to it.
It's extremely unpleasant for them, and in the long run could probably cause significant health issues related to nutrition absorption and increased inflammation.
Anyway. I'm convinced that many people have this issue and don't know about it. Information about this problem is not very widespread, and I'm unaware of any studies that attempt to explain its mechanism.
Useful insight. Thanks! Yeah, it seems tied to the economic "cycle". Thanks!
I didn't realize he died. It's a real shame that his illness had control of him.
An great course and a very good professor. I'm glad they've compiled the course into an ebook. It's the only way I can think of FP, so I'm glad I can know point people to the same source I learned it from.
It would be quite awesome if they made it fully interactive; in the vein of several other textbooks that have been shared on HN recently.
Two more questions (if you see this, I know it's been a few days), are you running SQL Server on Linux or Windows? And are you using encrypted connections?
Right, the auth from non-windows was a separate organizational hurdle we had to overcome, there was real hesitancy about not using a GMSA windows user to auth with SqlServer.
When you say "local mssql account is required" do you mean a user or some other entity on the linux client? Or do you mean an mssql user that the client with authenticate as?
