Perhaps Silicon Valley needs a perks metric? "That's only 0.25 pandas per FTE."


I too had WiFi trouble when bluetooth was enabled. The commands below fixed it for me (it might be that only one was effective but I've had no trouble since Feb 7). YMMV.

sudo ifconfig awdl0 down

defaults write com.apple.NetworkBrowser DisableAirDrop -boolean YES



Oh, that mentions that the startup happened 15+ years ago. I feel like that might've been relevant to mention in this post too... It's a fast changing world in the valley.


FYI according to Wikipedia the "t" longer stands for twin in FFA usage.

"The FAA has decided to use the single term, 'ExTended OPerationS,' or ETOPS, for all affected operations regardless of the number of engines on the airplane."

FWIW font size is ideal for me.


Font size seem ideal on homepage. But, font-size for comments is smaller.


It seems to differ per page. Font size on the homepage and threads page are ridiculously large for me in landscape and ok in portrait. Font size on article comments is ok now - think they may have just tweaked it.

Edit: I take that back. Still unreadably large in portrait.


"I had all topics covered in a professional manor ..."

Sigh...


There is a comment above explaining that union and contractor agreements would hamper the major incumbents.

I'm wondering if UPS etc. would be interested in partnering with or investing in Luna instead.


Seems excessive. A verbal warning or, at most, a trespass notice or injunction would suffice.

I'm also surprised that the police can prosecute this without a complaint from the school. Is this specific to Georgia or is it the same in other states?


Also, they got measurements from three birds so they have 216,000 continuous non-stationary measurements. A stats guru might be able to figure out the effective reduced sample interval.
