Sounds fine. It would be strange if vgubuntu-swap contained an actual filesystem with a single file on it (the swap file).

Sigh. I made it clear in the first comment that I don't disagree with you. I would love to see wider adoption of nuclear power. The sentence that you wrote was inaccurate, and I felt that more accurate wording would improve the quality of the debate. I don't see the point in engaging any further on this.

If the devs foresaw the set of conditions that trigger the bug and wrote a test that produces those conditions.

Only if it's a swap file on a filesystem on that LVM partition, and even then if the filesystem is otherwise empty then there's no other data to accidentally overwrite, you might just trash the filesystem structure.

I'd venture that most people who are compiling their own -rc1 kernel are not running Ubuntu, and most of those that are probably chose the swap partition option when installing it.

That is the angle the linked article chose to take, but Norwegian themselves have never taken that position, and they're cancelling Airbus orders too.

It really has nothing to do with safety at all; they're also cancelling Airbus orders and sticking with their existing 737NG aircraft. The 737 MAX orders would be being cancelled even if they were another type.

Norwegian is doing this for purely economic reasons; are there any American carriers in similarly deep financial strife to Norwegian?

Generally speaking the "connecting it up" between c/wasm + js or C + java/kotlin on android can be completely automated with codegen. It's really not tedious at all.

Sure, agreed on all points. I still think the title is misleading.

Non-negligible chance? Sure. But the title says “Apple is removing...”

Maybe it’s my non-US viewpoint but I didn’t read it that way at all. The fact that you qualified the previous sentence with “in the US” made the next sentence seem intentionally broad.

I also don't understand why the number of people that have died in nuclear accidents only in the US is a remotely useful metric in the context of the discussion.

No, if it happens it might reduce the utility of M1 Macs (or more likely hasten the release of ports), but right now it's just some strings.

First and foremost, host the hosted script that you let users use on a different domain - especially if you're letting random people upload random files to your primary domain!

They may be in negotiations with some patent holder or similar, and just preparing for the possibility that they have to. Adding the strings is a few steps removed from actually removing Rosetta, so the title is misleading.
