What other situations exist where someone is obliged to keep another person inside their body?

Obama famously did a lot of his own speechwriting.

Every candidate reads stump speeches from a teleprompter. Every stump speech has some level of input from a speechwriter.

You can tell by the candidate’s delivery how much input they have in writing, and how much they actually understand and believe what they’re reading.

Trump just reads the words that show up, like he’s never seen them before, and then goes off on weird tangents. He’s like Bizarro Simon Whistler.

My dad used a Wada basin to shave in the morning when he was in Vietnam.

The millions of simulations were spread across the various possible combinations within this framework. As a whole, the results form a rough map of all conceivable outcomes, like a vast tapestry woven from the threads of initial configurations. This is where the isles of regularity appear.

The colors represent the object that is eventually ejected from the system after the encounter. In most cases, this is the object with the lowest mass.

“If the three-body problem were purely chaotic, we would see only a chaotic mix of indistinguishable dots, with all three outcomes blending together without any discernible order. Instead, regular ‘isles’ emerge from this chaotic sea, where the system behaves predictably, leading to uniform outcomes—and therefore, uniform colors,” Trani explains.

The full paper is here: https://www.aanda.org/articles/aa/full_html/2024/09/aa49862-24/aa49862-24.html

From what I gather, they’re looking at the trajectories of the first object ejected from the system over all of the simulations, and they’re finding that:

If the 3BP was fully ergodic, we should see a mix of colours everywhere, but instead we observe four large regions of uniform colours, two large ones at ι ~ 80° and 260°, and two small ones at ι ~ 175° and ι ~ 355°, that we term regular islands.

All of those colors on those images are dots, each one representing the outcome of a simulation. The large single-colored areas shouldn’t exist if 3BP were truly chaotic and unpredictable. Furthermore, you can see some “finer structures that look like narrow stripes.”

I didn’t know the British Navy was involved.

I suppose this means that if someone tells USPS that a burned DVD of The Bee Movie has been mailed to me, USPS should stop delivering any mail to me?

[C]ampaign manager Susie Wiles … said the campaign recently had to cancel a public event at the last minute because of a “lack of personnel” from the Secret Service …

Your decision to cancel a public event was your decision, and no one else’s.

Mines that operate as tourist attractions in Colorado must designate someone to inspect the mines and the transportation systems daily, according to the state Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety. Mikesell said he didn’t know the date of the last inspection. Records of the inspections weren’t immediately available online.

I feel like if someone is supposed to be inspecting things daily that there should be an easily accessible record of those inspections.

And the 40% of features that are there will only work half the time.

If you live in the south east and you are repeating conspiracy theories about the hurricane. May you rot in hell.

I have smart children…I would always tell them, ndo drugs

But only in the increasing direction.

The only reason .su still exists is because Russia said they would decommission it and then never did. ICANN chose not to let that happen again, which explains their choice to decommission the later ones.

“ooo something I can post to shit on Microsoft about, where should I put it … CYBERSECURITY!”

Anger level, sir, is up to the goose.

Multiple?

Darcy reported that Rebecca Blumenstein, president of editorial for NBC News, opposed airing “Separated” before the election because executives want Trump to agree to another presidential debate hosted by the network.

However, Stephen Labaton, NBCUniversal head of communications, maintained to Darcy that “the debate had nothing to do with the scheduling of this programming.”

This story is making the rounds on a number of different outlets, and they all depend wholly on this one guy saying that Blumenstein said something, while Labaton said something different to that same guy. There’s a single person as a source here, the story is overstated.

Edit: Oh, I see - the headline on the article doesn’t match the title of this post. “…due to worries it will hurt Trump’s feelings” - was that your editorializing, or did they change the headline?

This appears to be overstated. The “offend Donald Trump” comment comes from Oliver Darcy, who left CNN in August 2024 to focus full time on his email newsletter and website, Status, which focuses on news about the media industry.

This is Oliver Darcy’s take, and no one else’s.

I’ve had cars where if there’s a programming update required, they issue it as a service action, you take the car to the dealer, and they do the software update locally with an SD card or USB stick.

You can still have easily updated software without it requiring OTA updates.

… Fisker now believes there is no way to transfer the information connected to each SUV to a new server …

There is absolutely a way. It might be hard, but there is a way.
