how soon until someone accidentally posts a QR code containing confidential information, since they cannot read it themselves.
Since the crash handler itself generates the code that takes your phone's browser directly to the report site, this isn't going to be a problem.
Have you never actually uses a qr code the leads to a web site?
Or just display a short number code. Displaying a QR code won't solve anything, it will just obfuscate the error and leave the user without any easily memorable reference. This sounds more to me like "let's do it because it's modern and hip" rather than it being actually useful.
The QR code can not only indicate the exact location of the error, but can take you to a website on the phone, with a url long enough to log
many key points about the error.
Even if it logs very little, developers will get more input this way than they do now, because when your machine is crashed, you can't report anything and once it reboots, you have other priorities than digging in the last crash dump.
However, other than collecting statistics, it might not do any good. Even when you do submit a dump, you get the request to install debug symbol packages and trigger the crash again. Ah, no, that isn't going to happen. Or there will be necessary drivers installed that taint the kernel, and devs wont touch it until replace your video card, untaint your kernel, and trigger another dump.
You've totally missed the fact that the link lead to two different studies one of which was a Meta Analysis of 180 studies, which indicated that there was no measurable effect of Vitamin D. Its not like ONE study was done and it is easily overturned by your google search.
The meta analysis more than likely included all your google search results by proxy. The study is not paywalled so go read it yourself.
This is the beauty of meta-analysis, it can find significant overlooked results of smaller studies and overcomes a lot of researcher bias.
There is no effect of Vitamin D, via supplement or via Direct Sunlight.
Vitamin D3 seems to decrease mortality (of all causes) by 11%.
But I agree that this present study seems to be confusing cause and effect. If you are outside early and running around in the sunshine chances are its not the light of morning that has the effect, its merely the fact that you are more active.
They have tracked it to a place from which It didn't have enough fuel to return.
Unless you are hanging your hat on aliens beaming them up, or a long undiscovered island in the south indian ocean which just happened to have a 5000 foot runway, some times you have to go by the numbers and state that they crashed.
There is very little reason to have spy satellites in the south Indian ocean.
Inmarsat is one of the few companies needing coverage down there because they have the contract for ACARS data an occasional sat phone calls. This area is not even on normal shipping routes.
No it isn't, its not using data from a system that WAS TURNED OFF within MINUTES of the last radio contact.
How the fuck did this get marked as insightful? Its make a wrong statement that everyone has know has been wrong since the second day.
You should try to keep up with the actual events instead of lashing out on Slashdot.
The DATA transmissions ceased on the ACARS, but the radio system still pings the satellite.
The radio system keeps its link with the satellite as long as the actual transmitter has power.
Just because you stop tweeting on your phone doesn't mean the phone stops talking to towers.
Ask Captain Sullenberger. Oh, and stop being an idiot.
How come the frequency information of the signal received by the satellite was saved? What is the purpose of saving all that data in normal operations?
And why did it take three weeks to do that analysis?
I thought the same thing.
With digital tuners, what radio system even captures exact frequency these days? Its either in-band our out of band and not heard.
Perhaps these satellite radios are wider band, and therefore they record the exact frequency any transmission arrived, but it just seems unusual to have this information at all, let alone to be able to dig it up out of several days old data.
Linux is already the norm in Brazilian ATMs, so the banks can just buy ready built versions.
Bye now, I'm off to my Portuguese class.
Everything you said is false.
I mean, I can't imagine how you could be wrong on every single point, unless you are still driving that 82 Toyota.
The headlights recognize tail lights and won't go to bright when I'm following, the car can distinguish someone cutting me off, and brakes just enough to allow for the DIFFERENCE in speed, the blind spot monitoring works perfectly, (and I still turn my head because not all the cars I drive have this). Cross traffic detection is for when you are backing out of parking spaces, not driving.
Basically, I don't think you should be driving period. Your attitude betrays an ego larger than your brain. You don't belong on the road.
Its time to trade in that deadly heap you drive, because your abilities stopped improving years ago.
Humans are the least reliable element in the modern car.
What electrical issues? None of those affect driveability.
Why in the name of blissful sleep would you want to be awoken then?
My automatic headlights and automatic wipers work perfectly. As does my auto high-beam.
So does my collision avoidance braking system,
blind spot monitoring,
traction control system,
rear cross-traffic detection,
adaptive cruise control,
parking assist radars,
keyless entry, keyless starting,
remote start, etc.
What do you have against safety and convenience features?
Why do they all have to be made of metal and weigh a ton, instead of never-rusting plastic?
Take a look at this chart and tell me which part of the past you think we should revisit.
How many times are you going to post the same nonsense?
Neutrinos have bad breadth.
