According to Zillow, the median rent (for all property types) is $3,300 is San Francisco, but it is $3,400 in the neighboring San Mateo county, so yes, SF is indeed cheaper ;)
30 years ago that was an option in Almaty (was extremely convenient for me, as we lived literally 2 block from there). You could check in, drop baggage, go through security and then ride on a bus directly to the plane. Same in Moscow, not sure about other cities (did not fly to other locations back then).
However, this was only partial solution, as it worked for departures only, not arrivals.
I strongly believe that "having the two fields get initialized to Environment.TickCount" is the correct fix and using unsigned arithmetic is just a workaround. If you save the time of some event in some field, you either need to initialize that field with current time, or have special processing of "value not set" everywhere it is used, otherwise you're almost guaranteed to have some hard to debug problem somewhere in the long run.
This is very unlikely, because Asiana 214 crash happens in broad daylight at 11:28am, so it could not possibly trigger a rule forbidding visual approach at night.
My understanding is that at Columbus time they did not measured sun / moon positions, but instead based their predictions on the eclipse cycles - if you have long enough record of past eclipses, you can notice that they are not random but the same timing sequence repeats after some time:
Do you know that you can tell your Mac to "always show scroll bars" on System Settings -> Appearance page?
Anyway, while I tend to agree that Snow Leopard UI was the best and it went downhill since then, the latest macOS is still very usable and I do not suffer on Mac at all (unlike Windows 11, where I had to install a 3rd party app to at least partially revert what they did with UI)
Sadly the UI isn't even the worst part of Windows these days. It's the ads. It's beyond belief that I should get ads in software that I paid for, yet here we are. I got so sick of it that I switched to daily driving Linux. It's not perfect (I'm a gamer and games can have issues even though they mostly work great), but at least I don't have ads on my desktop.
Microsoft did the right thing in putting ads on the Windows desktop. They can make more money that way, and increase shareholder value.
For every user like you that gets angry and switches to Linux, there's countless others that don't, and MS makes more profit showing them annoying ads, so it's a net gain for them.
