We say "are bears Catholic?" when in more polite company and we can't get away with asking if the Pope shits in the woods :)

Adding on and being specific: AMC in the GSP mall in Paramus, NJ. Assigned seating for sure.

That was my thought when watching the video. The robot is the size of a room if you count all the cameras.

It's like the pitch-o-matic 5000 from Futurama.

I may have missed it, but may I assume a device license is transferable? I mean to transfer it when I ditch my Mac for a new one, so I'm talking about my devices only. I'm just asking to be clear, especially given use of the word "lifetime". Thanks!

I cross my sevens!

I'll consider starting to slash my zeros. Seems legit.

Did we learn nothing from "A View to a Kill" ?

There are canvases.... Some similarities if you squint. Clearly not for code use but for shared durable notes....

I've seen both of these philosophies. I liken them to religions, the believers are devout. Code is King vs the DB is King.

I'm personally Code is King, and I have my reasons (like everyone else)

OK, in all fairness I did think all we were talking about was the trigger, not the underlying vulnerable system (which I already had understood to be less than solid over the years.)

I heard similar but haven't found a "no, it wasn't a monkey" article yet.

I'd say that's about the process itself, not the script mirroring the process.

Fix the process, fix the script. Onwards....

Probably not by Black Plastic Kitchen Utensil Co., though...

What are good places to start down this rabbit hole? (for those willing to have their illusions tarnished? )

My first thought was that airplanes need noise canceling for the engine sounds. There's a real difference in a long flight with and without noise canceling headphones. Effective (better?) noise cancelation for the whole cabin would be impactful.

OK yeah, I was just attempting not to project authority but let the data (which I didn't have handy) be the important part.

I'm definitely not an expert, but I would say nothing of note has changed with our utility bill since we replaced the gas cooktop with an induction cooktop. The marketing will tell you it's more efficient because all the energy goes into the cooking (heating the pot) instead of heating the room as with gas. But hey, that's marketing.

One other concern was control: we did find out that the power levels on our model were not linear. The first 5 were all low power for low power needs (eggs, sauces, etc) and then 6 through 9 were much larger increments for high power needs (e.g. frying).

Our experiment before committing was using a plug in cooktop. We got a good one, and even though it was "only" 1800W it made many meals. It's power settings were linear but offered us 0-100% in 1% increments (amazing control! Love that thing.)

After trying induction for a couple of years, I now believe it's superior to gas.

I've seen that forever and not just on United. I have thought it's something about the underlying SABRE system that many airlines use. Maybe someone here knows more.

The article mentions they only plan to do this starting at group 4... So that's

1. All pre boarding (military, families with small children, wheelchairs, etc)

2. Global services

3. Group 1

4. Group 2

5. Group 3

6. Group 4

7. Group 5

I also think Group 2 often seems to me to be the most populous one... that may just be my experience.

I guess now I can see why they'd only save 2 minutes.

Edit: formatting, formatting and more formatting

Chiming in: on my Android, I do have FF Nightly as my default browser for the whole phone. Recently some Google apps have begun to use Chrome, ignoring the system setting, but mostly, the setting is honored. There might be a few other exceptions but again... mostly honored. (Phone is a Samsung Galaxy S23)
