California has one of these solar thermal towers. Quite a spectacle as you drive by on the way back from Vegas.
Interestingly this one does not store energy for 24/7 operations like the one in China. As they are both smolten salt based, not sure why

Sorry, I didn’t realize this was an entire community dedicated to this one bit. I should have checked before complaining. Thanks for posting!
Opening sequence of what? Why would anyone do that? It was so aggravating to watch like that. Just post the clip from the show!
This one actually does need heathcliff to be humorous. Appreciate all your work in posting these!
For the record I did not downvote.
But I capitulate on your point. It would be great if every piece of software was written with resilience and uptime in mind.
As a former sysadmin that sounds like a dream. But I don’t think I have ever seen that with any mainstream program that I’ve had responsibility for. Does that mean all those programs were bad? I don’t think so. We wouldn’t need sysadmins if all programs were written the way you describe.
Programs can be written to auto rotate their logs, compact and reindex their db’s. Using browser updates as an example, they can even safely auto update and revert back on failure.
How many programs actually do these things? My experience is next to 0. But I wouldn’t call them all bad or poorly written programs.
Were they a total solar eclipse? Because those are way different then partial and I think qualify as once in a lifetime event.
No. Every good software program should write at least logs to disk. Every good database writes to disk. Add a new post, db will commit to the db and the db will grow in size.
Name any decent sized program where new content is added and I guarantee it writes to disk and will fail eventually if not maintained.
I’m think your saying the one on the right is a bird. But then you have to consider the documentary about the one on the left learning to fly. So if I guess both animals are birds.
Don’t feel too bad, not only is 30 an arbitrary number, he doesn’t account for folks too young to understand something. I don’t think a 2 day old baby learning about the mentos thing should count. So either it’s more than 10,000 people per day or the age should probably stretch out to 60 or maybe even 75.
Of corse there are also the people like me who are forgetful and may not remember they heard something!
I agree with your disagreement. One of the biggest mistakes was folks trying to create 1:1 analogs of every subreddit. A single big community can have a lot of varied interesting discussions. If it gets too big, folks can get together and start a separate sub topic community for whatever topic warrants it.
Premature to say that they finished. Launch tonight was scrubbed. Even this launch is a test flight. Let’s see how long until NASA approves for regular flights
Did you build this box? Could be cpu thermal paste not properly applied.
Ah gotcha. That makes a lot more sense. Maybe OP will post after he finishes his build
A piece of kit that has root access. No game should have that level of access to your system.
Shame the guy couldn’t be bothered to do a short interview with a writer from a well known tech magazine. Most small businesses CEOs would jump at the chance. Or at least they should.
Oh wow. I had no idea. Thanks for the links!
What’s the hair drama?
And in other news water is wet.
China is hacking everything and everyone.
When I first started the app I could browse as guest in an instance. But after creating my first account, I’ve lost the option to browse an instance as guest. Some instances are closed to registration, but I’d still like to check them out (beehaw).
