Another way to think about it is cars allow people who live further from the campus along routes not served by transit (either at all or in a timely and convenient manner) to still work for the company. A multi-story parking structure would also have reduced the amount of surface area dedicated to vehicles.

I admit I have no idea how it's actually working, but Apple does have experience keeping audio in sync: AirPods. I suspect video's a similar process.

Didn’t ForeFlight just come out with something similar recently? https://blog.foreflight.com/2024/05/07/smooth-skies/ They don’t mention ML specifically, but I imagine their install base is a tad larger and can therefore gather more real data. Is your solution different?

I’m not saying Assange is fully responsible for the outcome of the 2016 election. But when you directly attack one party of a two party race, you’re actively giving the edge to the other. He clearly held a grudge against Clinton (https://wikileaks.org/hillary-war/) and continued to act upon it.
Now that this multi-decade saga is coming to an end, and we have the benefit of hindsight, I’m wondering if he still thinks that the blast radius of his actions were acceptable, or if perhaps he thinks he should have been more cautious before standing for his principles and acting upon that grudge. From what I know, I’d be remorseful and regret having done it, but I am not him.

In 2016, Julian Assange intentionally timed the release of Hillary Clinton's emails in an attempt to harm her presidential campaign, after she condemned the diplomatic cable releases during her tenure of Secretary of State.
Whether directly or otherwise, even if only the smallest amount, his vendetta led to her loss, and Trump's subsequent win. In 2016, the NYT wrote, "First, citing his 'personal perspective,' Mr. Assange accused Mrs. Clinton of having been among those pushing to indict him after WikiLeaks disseminated a quarter of a million diplomatic cables during her tenure as secretary of state. 'We do see her as a bit of a problem for freedom of the press more generally,' Mr. Assange said." (https://www.nytimes.com/2016/07/27/us/politics/assange-timed...)
Is there any evidence that he's shown a reconsideration for that position?

I combined one of those cheap breakouts with this variable voltage power supply - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0861LGM15 - and a 3d printed enclosure to make a benchtop power supply pretty affordably. Just use your laptop's power supply and now you can have any voltage and limited amperage.

This one’s been on my wishlist for a bit:
Flying Blind: The 737 MAX Tragedy and the Fall of Boeing

Yeah - I've been waiting to see what this release would entail as I kinda want to build a SFF PC. But now that I know what's in it, and since they didn't come out with anything really special chipset-wise, I'll probably just see if I can get some current-get stuff at discounted prices during the usual summer sales.

Kinda like this? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_SIM

No, that’s not the only way. “STOP” is a keyword that most carriers/providers will respect and handle automatically. “You have the wrong number” requires all that human involvement.

Anecdotally, I recently rented a Jeep Wrangler PHEV. Didn’t choose that model specifically; was expecting a Prius but it’s what the rental counter gave me.
The battery was dead when I picked it up. It was dead when I returned it, despite me actually looking for a L2 charger just to see what it would be like to drive fully on battery. It did drive as a hybrid (I could feel the ICE stop and start) but it wasn’t nearly as efficient as it could have been, especially considering my entire rental was probably under 100 miles.

Landing there is part of it, yes, as part of the Commercial Lunar Payload Services program.
It brought along a bunch of NASA and commercial payloads as well.

That's basically what I do as well. I combined a similar HDMI dongle with a Logitech K400 Plus wireless keyboard+trackpad combo. It's an absolutely terrible membrane keyboard for everyday use, but having the trackpad and keyboard in the same device, using the same single dongle that has a storage slot in the keyboard makes things really easy for light, occasional use.

Are you referring to the U3224KB? It's $2500, which seems a bit steep.
