And they are all welcome back if they can satisfy the Linux Foundation that they're not affiliated with a sanctioned entity on the SDN list.

Compare with the yearly release cycle on cars.

Like any other convention, it's not really a big deal either way. Fortran gets along just fine with 1-indexing.

802.11ax, clients just... (essentially) wait for a random amount of time, listen for a break in the signal, and take a leap of faith.

Ethernet originally worked the same way, back when it competed directly against token ring. Ethernet won by being as reliable in real world scenarios while being cheaper to build out. Gigabit Ethernet was the first standard that insisted on full duplex only.

Half duplex mode with the collision avoidance is still actively supported for 10/100, but it is becoming very hard to find an unswitched hub. So you may have to write up your own twisted pair cables.

Really I worked a project once that just had post-its stuck to the wall. It worked as well as Jira does.

You forgot the "... Or I'll break your kneecaps."

What they're saying is this:

1. That land used to have nothin much on it, so it was cheap land, and the property taxes were low.
2. 30 million was spent on building the private wall. I don't think this money came from the land owner. (This is the crowd funded Trump Wall, right?)
3. With the fancy new wall on it, the property is now appraised at around 20 million (or maybe whatever it was plus 20 million). Whether it's 75 times or 100 times what it was before is not super important. The point is it went from not much to quite a bit.
4. Property taxes went up in accordance with the new valuation.
5. Property owner is probably not wealthy enough to pay the taxes, so big picture he can't continue to own the property.

Wait. Did you really mean "decreasing" rather than "desecrating"? Because that's hilarious.

Most games I've seen, nobody ever horse trades for color groups.

Complex deals and negotiations, land swaps, leveraged buyouts, and free rent passes, are all supposed to be part of the game. Getting a color group solely by landing on the spaces first and buying them for list price is indeed rare, by design.

This leads to my other pet peeve... You're not supposed to have enough money to go around the board the first time and buy every space you land on at the list price. You're supposed to be forced to make strategic decisions from the beginning of the game about what you go for, and what you bid in the auctions.

Most of the made up "house rules" are really about circulating more money into the game than is supposed to be there.

You should also know that because of jail and various other teleports, the orange group is the most popular group on the board. It's something like 1.8 times the average to land on those spaces, because two of them are 6 and 8 spaces from jail. Jail is a very popular space because Go To Jail also counts as Jail.

Boardwalk has very high rents, but it's also pretty unpopular to land on.

The worst rent-to-popularity values are yellow and green.

Here's my guess. I don't know anything about this particular device, but I have worked with medical devices.

A powered exo-skeleton sounds like it might be a class II medical device. Being a medical device, the OEM was required to produce a safety risk analysis per ISO 14971 in the EU and 21 CFR 820 in the US. I don't know what all was listed, but probably one of the safety risks was thermal runaway from the (assumed) lithium ion batteries.

Lithium ion battery packs have a well known problem with occasionally overheating and catching fire. This famously delayed the launch of the 787 Dreamliner. This is also why you can't put your phone or laptop battery into your checked luggage.

In the original risk analysis, there will be a number of mitigation steps identified for each hazard. For the lithium thermal runway, these probably include a mix of temperature monitoring, overheat shutdown, and passive design features in the battery pack itself to try to keep the impacts of over temperature and fire away from the patient.

So how does the price get to 100k? It could be some kind of unique design features that are now out of production and the original tooling is not available. The 100k cost is probably something like to redesign the production tooling, particularly if you have to remake injection molds.

You can't just use any off the shelf battery pack, because that would invalidate the risk analysis. You'd need to redo the risk analysis, repeat at least some amount of validation testing, and possibly resubmit an application to the FDA.

TLDR: you can get some MEs and EEs together to solve this problem, but once they're on the case, you can blow through 100k real fast.

Are these hippo sprint speeds, or real proper endurance speeds?
