I mean being activist is sort of the whole point of the ACLU? And besides it's not like this would be the first time stuff like this happens. You don't have to imagine it, just learn history.
I mean at least the pipelines almost always seem to work...
The real disconnect is that the user doesn't really care all that much. It's mostly the designers who care. And Qt for example but also WPF let you style components almost to unrecognizable and unusable results. So if everyone will need to make do with 8GB for the foreseeable future, designers might just be told "No.", which admittedly will be a big shock to some of them. Or maybe someone finally figures out how to do HTML+CSS in a couple of megabytes.
Because the why can be completely unrelated to the code (odd business requirements etc). The code can be known to be non-optimal but it is still the correct way because the embedded system used in product XYZ has some dumb chip in it that needs it this weird way etc. Or the CEO loves this way of doing things and fires everyone who touches it. So many possibilities, most technical projects have a huge amount of politics and weird legacy behavior that someone depends on (including on internal stuff, private methods are not guaranteed to not be used by a client for example). And comments can guard against it, both for the dev and the reviewer. Hell we currently have clients depend on the exact internal layout of some PDF reports, and not even the rendered layout but that actual definitions.
There are GFIs that can deal with a welder, you will have to swap it at the panel.
No, they will point out that the way to make GCC better is not really in the code itself. It's in scientific paper writing and new approaches. Implementation is really not the most work.
The difference is visibility, with a van you can often see as close as 1,5 m in front of you due to the short hood. The problem is a lot of the newer trucks and SUVs are so tall that a full child (or 5) just disappear in front the car.
Essentially that someone needs to get involved that wants it/uses it and is also willing to pay for it.
Well you should mostly do that in the primaries, when you are down to two, pick the least evil one.
Wouldn't that intern just use an NLE (be it Premiere, Davinci Resole etc) anyway? If you need to style subtitles and edit shorts and video content, you'll need a proper editor anyway.
The non-passing test was only added like 17 hours ago: https://github.com/coreutils/coreutils/commit/14d24f7a530f58...
So this is a good thing even for coreutils itself, they will slowly find all of these untested bits and specify behaviour more clearly and add tests (hopefully).
There are some neat tricks to remove almost all the pack and unpack time. Apache Arrow can help a ton there (uses the same data format on both CPU and GPU or other accelerator). And on some unified memory systems even the send time can be very low.
YC isn't that unknown and you can absolutely judge that org for funding stuff like this, you really don't need that much detail. And if you have interacted with a lot of the "founders" you know that statistically you're in the clear to judge them all too. It's a pretty weird world where a lot of dumb exists, like A LOT. The realities of their lives are frankly immaterial anyway, it's about the output (and input in case of VC money).
Well be prepared for it to get MUCH MUCH worse, two AI agents battling it out trying to get each other to mess up. While all the human have no idea what the hell is happening.
This is just an animated movie sound track which had a normal production team and voice actors.
Most of the financial services and systems are all still on very boring old databases (hell quite some cobol still touches a ton of it). Since well they don't need to get hype funding for their Series A or whatever. Databases are just pretty good and processing data efficiently. It's a tiny tiny part that actually runs on some blockchain.
If you use a nice enough writing tool it will do en/em and any other dash for you semi automatically anyway. Even Word does it when AutoFormat is turned on. Although it normally chooses the En-dash (U+2013) instead of the Em-dash (U+2014), this also depends on your language.
Well the key is to always do clean-installs and join the fleet and decommission the old machines. Machines are essentially immutable and disposable, so upgrades are done with full machines. And if anything hardware goes bad on whole or sometimes half racks.
I don't think you quite get how little money it is for these types of operations, 25m is essentially missing 2-3 zeros before it becomes anywhere near usable and even worth it to bother.
I think the point is more that the insurers are not the real target for your wrath. You should not motivate your congress person to do something about the insurance necessarily. It's probably better to look at a level further up the chain for example.
All of those are a result of American's favorite hobby though, not maintaining infrastructure, because ooh no taxes. LA has not raised enough revenue for decades it seems. The amount of pot holes in even the most expensive neighborhoods was already to damn high.
At some point the US really needs to do bit of cultural reform so they can start paying for all that low density development and the costs associated with it. So stuff can actually be maintained.
For multiplayer it's really about the people you play with, with is the incentive. Basically doing that stuff with friends is a ton of fun. And you can also include some people new to the game which multiplayer makes much easier for them.
I think he means AWS/Azure/GCP and other hyperscalers.
And most importantly some clients will not communicate that they are unhappy and just move on quietly. Especially for something like virtualization which is essentially a commodity.
That is why you always regulate the provider/seller (ie. the social media site) and not the consumption side. We already learned this in the war on drugs, prosecution of consumption has never really worked all that well.
If you put the parent in jail for 6 months and fine the company 1 million per user account, they for sure will start thinking real hard about fixing the problem.
I mean Apple even added a native feature to iMessage with full on tracking, exactly because of safety. Sure someone needs to send it manually but the whole point of Check-in (tracking someones progress home) is safety. Just too many shady blokes out on the street at night.
They are not propaganda in the classic sense since that requires intent and a goal.
The difference between what they are and what you should call them. Getting voted in asks for coddling your potential base.
Depending on you size, even just having some people from all the open source products on staff is probably cheaper anyway. And gives you pretty good control. And if it used to work the only one that can have broken the config is you, which means you can also fix it. Sure maybe you need to rollback a kernel update or whatever but in the end it's on you.
