That might be why a feature exists, or maybe even why a particular paid library was chosen instead of another. That doesn't explain why the code is written the way it was, which is the point of documentation. Why the feature exists is the realm of the PRD, not the design doc.

It usually goes to the lowest-ranking person on the team or the one everyone's trying to keep away from actual coding.

It remains worth the effort to write a novel around your code - not just what you did and why you did certain things a certain way, but the meta-reasons. The more those who come after you understand, the easier it is for them to figure out and maintain your code. It also tends to focus you more on writing good code, because you don't want to document, "Well, it looked good enough and didn't immediately produce errors and I'm tired of this and want to move on".

AI code? Well, AI should be very good at generating plain-language documentation of 'what', but it is absolutely going to fail at 'why'.

The additional cost over a normal horizontal ducted turbine is, of course, the new shell and the actuator it requires.

It's like you didn't bother actually reading my post and just responded in ignorance.

It happens here, but perhaps you'd be happier on Reddit?

Start with a ducted horizontal wind turbine. If you imagine a bunch of salad bowls stacked with spacers and you get the idea of what it would look like from the outside.

The ducts collect air from any direction and drive it down, through the turbine, and out the bottom. Water doesn't turn corners quiet as easily as air, so you can use the ducts to separate out the majority of liquid and drain it away from your turbine.

Then you and an armored shell of horizontal bands that can be moved up and down to reduce or enlarge the duct input slot area. Instead of having to worry about wind load and braking at the turbine, you control dangerous wind load at the intake.

There's your monsoon-resistant wind turbine.

It wasn't a big theatre-experience movie, it was more like a handful of really good television episodes strung together.

In that sense, it was both a good movie and deserved the bad reviews it got.

1) Not tied to frequent fuel deliveries

2) Does not require much that humans don't already need - sun and air. (Variability will affect your power storage needs)

3) It can be deployed almost anywhere, and even be portable.

The main issue is energy density - if you want to drive hundreds of kilometers a day, run your AC all summer and heat all winter, etc., you're going to need a lot of land dedicated to power collection.

I imagine there are a lot of places in a continent like Africa where people might be happy to get by on what solar can give them in return for not having to worry about burning oil or anything else to get electricity.

A deep crater at the south pole in eternal darkness, with the ability to raise solar collectors above the rim for eternal sunshine, and you have excellent conditions for observing the skies.

Of course if those aren't securities, then the entire site is illegal as it's operating as a securities exchange. That's their legal argument for why they aren't gambling sites, and shouldn't be regulated by state gaming commissions. So expect the full might of all those prediction market sites to be lining up against that argument and for finding him guilty.

If you use Amazon or Microsoft, your data is as protected as Trump's next tantrum. Actually worse than that, as there will be people seeking compliance in advance and nobody gives a damn about American laws nevermind yours.

> depending on an imperfect random number generator. Renner's coworkers could then amplify the randomness of the measurement results further using a special algorithm.

You can't take a non-random source and make it random with an algorithm. Either there is true randomness in the input or there isn't. The algorithm is deterministic.

I'm fine. I plan to switch to self-employment and provide artisinal technical support, perhaps via OnlyFans.

Sure, maybe I'll have to prominently display my bare feet or hawk used headsets to my clients, but it's a small inconvenience.

Damnit. WFH.

I knew what I meant!
