How about Anubis? Is It still working?

The main contribution of the Wright brothers is the controls used on aviation (pitch, yaw and roll). About being the first, Santos-Dumont is recognized by Fédération Aéronautique Internationale as the first flight with witnesses. Splitting hairs here, the english word "airplane" is less specific than the french word "avion". All avion are airplanes, but to be an avion the machine needs to be able to take off and land by its own means, and that's the point where the first flight of the Wright brothers are missing. And as they kept secrecy on what they were doing, we don't know exactly when they introduced each innovation on their machines. But to me, that doesn't matter much actually. Heavier-than-air flights are more like a collective effort IMHO with the Wright brothers, Santos-Dumont and many others contributing to create the aviation.

Software funded by public resources should be a benefit available for the public. Is not only transparency and security, it should be owned by the people who paid for it.

Server side anti-cheat should be the focus of every game company with an MMO game in their catalog. Relying on kernel access is madness.

Not anymore. We assimilated the neanderthals a long time ago.

Other close relative species don't exist anymore.

Hope that backfire on IBM.

A rough translation of a brazilian quote for you: "In a fight between these guys, I cheer for the fight".

Do you remember the Fibonacci sequence? You can use it to convert miles to kilometers .

2 mi ~= 3km

5mi ~= 8km

8mi ~= 13km

13mi ~= 21km

And so on.

"technical correctness is worthless if you’re solving the wrong problem."

100% agreed

Is a terminal shell, like bash or zsh.

Even apps installed outside the Play Store will need to have a "verified developer", and this change will affect any devices that use Google Play Services, so it will be a problem even to old devices.

I think you are lost in the language. There are no absolute rights, in any legal systems. So any "law" necessarily restricts someone's "rights".

Therefore, you need to think about what "authoritarian decision" means, because if all law restricts someone's rights, all laws are authoritarian by your definition.

Also: terrible example to begin with.

Yeah, depending on what you consider "new".

• Nose shapes to account for dryer air on Africa and middle east.
• Nose shapes to account for colder weather.
• There are a group of people that have larger spleens to make them able to drive dive for longer periods (Bajau People).
• "Asian" eye-shape, afaik, is an adaptation to protect the eyes from sand.

The list is actually very long.

Also sound, you hear the splash.

A way to address that is to require that if the company does not provide software updates, it must release the source code and tooling to it's customers under cc-0 license. For games that depends on server-side services to work, that should be provided as well.

But under capitalism, that will be an uphill battle.

"It's good to be king" :/

"Don't be a protagonist in someone else's story" You shouldn't make decisions for someone else, nor prevent the results for their actions. You can help, advice, but should not intervene without permission.

(Except if the someone in question is a kid, then you probably should intervine)

Sunglasses and UV-blocking clothes.

With the first I discovered that I have a high sensitivity to light, now I can see much more during the day.

And the second is very useful, protecting me from sun without the need to worry about sunscreen (except for the face)

I had panic attacks just before start working, and my productivity was quite low. I hope you don't reach that kind of reaction before looking for help.

Someone who hords houses.

If you have an beach house that you uses every year, and rents it when it's not using or you have one second house that you got from a deceased family member... If you need to work to maintain this second house...

That's fine. It will not cause a inflation on the house market, it's not just an investment.

In my city (not in US), there are a booming market of very small apartments that rich people buy just to protect their money from inflation. As result, higher prices, less units available for the general public, and the new units that are available are terrible.
