Thanks, Lennie. I'm self-learning the whole HTTP (simple) and TLS (not simple) protocols out of interest as I work as an ad-hoc server admin (devops). This one-liner answers a whole slew of questions that I had, and points me in the direction to learn others. Thank you!
The 2 best programmers I have ever worked with in my life, both had little more than high school educations. One quit programming to become a massage therapist. I dont know what it takes in the heart/mind to be a great developer, but I do know that neither a degree in CS or Engineering is a requisite.
Our number 1 dev just quit to work on his film hobby. He was also completely self-taught, no formal education. Some people just 'have it'. Some don't, no matter how long they study.
The "plane" in "airplane" or "spaceplane" refers to the shape of the lifting body (i.e. the wing, technically the bottom of the wing). Just like your hand forms part of a geometric plane when outside that car window, so does the bottom of the wing form part of a geometric plane. It is this plane which forces the air down, hence the term "air-plane".
Since this design generates lift by pushing the air down, it is a "something-plane".
In Firefox set `media.autoplay.enabled` to FALSE (about:confg).
On Titan the view of Saturn is edge-on to the rings as Titan is in the ring plane. So the rings of Saturn would not be visible in the sky.
Seeing the artists get this wrong in the 2009 Star Trek movie is a bit forgiving, as they need to impress their audience. But on Gizmag?!? I would have expected better.
X-14 - FIFY
They clearly call the vehicle Experimental Wingless Space Plane IXV for that reason!
I doubt that gut flora is transmitted through breast milk.
If you've ever changed an infant's diaper you'd have seen that green-yellow mess that comes out for a while.
Kids put everything in their mouth. Put them on the floor, they'll lick the carpets. Unsupervised they'll eat the "poopsicles" in the cat litter, and play with the dogs "turdles." Every time they find something they'll put it in their mouth.
Thanks. In fact, I have changed quite a few diapers and I'd love to change more!
Thank you, that is rather more interesting than I expected.
...your digestive system suffers quite a bit, and has no way to recover (those bacterias don't come out of nowhere...if 100% of them are gone, they're not coming back...
Where do babies get them from? Surely there is no interintestinal transfer from mom to womb.
You realise ISIS heavily drugs (at least) their immolation victims? So it wasn't bravery so much as being chemically restricted.
Where did you get that from? I'd love to see a source.
Since I didn't watch it, I don't know what it contains, but I would suspect they do not show the man at his best.
The video shows that man at his absolute best. I could never be as brave as that pilot watching the flames come for him. You _think_ that you've seen brave people in movies. This was a real brave person, handling a certain-death situation with more dignity than I've ever approached a problem in my life.
If you ever wonder what "dignity" and "bravery" mean, you'll have to watch that video. We see not only humans at their absolute worst, but we also see one human at the absolute best that a human could be.
I actually think that it is important for those interested to see this video. At the very least, know your enemy. Those who are _not_ disgusted by the video were already lost before they saw it. I saw it. I cannot believe what some people will do to one another.
