I haven't followed it all that closely but didn't he end up being charged for libel/slander? That lady was a complete batshit lunatic. Just watch her interview with Anderson Cooper; it's objectively cringeworthy.
I recently bought Premium because I realized 80% of my media consumptions is from it. Compare that to Hulu plus or cable and even at 14 a month its a great deal
> Therefore, there is no significant gap between titanium and carbon-fiber-reinforced composite to create galvanic corrosion. This means that commercially pure titanium and its alloys are completely resistant to galvanic corrosion when they are coupled with carbon composites.
Small things, e.g. insignificant rebellions, ah, gaps, do add up.
I see a problem in stress loads so. Titanium and carbon fibre composites behave differently under load. And at those depths, they are under a lot of load. These small differences induce additional stress at the critical joint between bulk heads and submarine body. That stress causes, over time, material fatigue.
That's why those components are, in most othee use cases, fatigue tested to their breaking point. Knowing that point, allows you to define a save service life for those components and replace thek way before they fail.
The article you cite says "Therefore, there is no significant gap between titanium and carbon-fiber-reinforced composite to create galvanic corrosion. This means that commercially pure titanium and its alloys are completely resistant to galvanic corrosion when they are coupled with carbon composites." This seems to be the opposite of what you are asserting.
No but the idea of exterrestrials visiting us millenia ago, gauging our intelligence and then monitoring us is pretty awesome idea. I always thought considered that Roswell were aliens visiting us after radioactive decay was detected via spectrography. A more likely and less tantalizing answer is that people had spaceships on their mind starting in 1930's with V2 and all of a sudden we see an explosion in 'UFOs'
In other words, brilliant jerks don't BS you and tell you like it is. An admirable trait in my experience. And when you finally prove your worth to a brilliant jerk there tends to be a level of respect.

Exactly, I feel it is because with Google advertisers are the real customers and they could not care less about user experience unless it affects that bottom line. Case in point is the removal of the dislike button which users loved but advertisers hated. Google is a rich one trick pony right now anyway.
Finally some relevancy I can bring to Hacker News. Ron Crane was my uncle and him and David Boggs were such good friends till the end. Any more good stories from Ron or Dave? They are hard to come by.
2000 would've been around the time of LAN media, no?
Yes, was Lan Media times. :) I probably have more Ron stories since we worked in the office together every day.
Ron and I kept in touch. (since he replied to emails) I lived overseas for a while, and when I was in the bay area we'd meet up, I remember visits with him to get breakfast at Black Bear Dinner, or touring the computer history museum together, a talk at parc. I so loved his excitement, he was so excited to meet up with me...made me feel special. I loved how he'd just chat/teach and that curiosity and patience.
Ok a story. So on this SDSL project we need to simulate 10,000 feet of cable, so Dave and I got some big boxes of cable and put them under our desk. But as the project progressed we need fancier setups. Again Ron pitched in, shook his head at out huge spool of cable and disappeared into the lab. About 30 minutes later he came back with this little mass of resistors, caps all soldered together in a ball and said something like "here, this is a good enough model of 10kfeet of cable with a 1k foot tap..." I just remember this little ball of parts...and having no clue how he just came up with it out of thin air. I think he explained it, but woosh. Analog, complicated, not 1s and 0s.
Or when I left....I gave notice and Ron was really nice. But he kept suggesting I should give 3 weeks notice. Just stay on for another week, etc. I was young, and I never listened well anyways so was firm with my date. Too bad...if I'd listened stayed 2 more days I would have collected my rather sizable retention bonus....ah well.
