Modern PCIe NVME drives typically see a few microsecond latency, but even DDR2 latency was around 10 nanoseconds. Memory remains top dog by a long shot.

Each episode is of exceptional quality and retells history in an engaging manor. Since it's history, the entire backlog is still relevant.

Tax dollars don't fund the government. The government funds the government. That's what "Fiat currency" means.

There was $4.9 trillion in revenue and $6.8 trillion in outlays in 2024 [1]. 95% of that revenue was from taxes. In spite of the high deficit, it remains a true statement that the federal government is funded by taxes as they account for the majority of funding.

Those lending to the US government are doing so by purchasing US Treasury bonds, which have due dates and earn interest.

Based on the credit rating of the US government, they will certainly not end up with less in nominal terms.

Considering that the current deepest borehole in the world is 12km [1], 20km is a lofty goal.

Those statistics are for New York State, not NYC.

See page 27 (PDF page 33) of [0].

Commercial natural gas usage in NYC is roughly 40% of non-power generation natural gas usage. The actual proportion varies greatly depending on time of year, presumably due to natural gas heating in residential properties in colder months.

I believe part of the reason for American companies to not list teams publicly is to guard against easily poaching talent using that data.

I have had this taken to me. Taxi drivers "accidently" take the wrong turn into a tunnel that adds at least an extra mile to the trip. You are billed directly on distance traveled so it is not surprising.

Interesting edge case. Perhaps we need something other than MST for Arizona (excluding Navajo Nation) if we want a lack of ambiguity. If only politicians knew how annoying dealing with time is for software developers!

I would work remotely from a small town, away from the fast life of urban areas. Property costs are significantly lower, as with crime and traffic. Possibilities include somewhere on the DelMarVa peninsula. Constraints include 50+ Mbps internet and a newer house without asbestos/lead paint.

I'd argue that DuckDuckGo's behaviour is the correct one, but they should display a warning when the east cost is on EDT and someone requests conversion with EST. Maybe we will stop using daylight savings before the masses learn the difference between ET/EST/EDT.

I can't see them doing this in College Park with the goal of reducing driving. This Ikea is in the northern-most part. Unfortunately, retail is spread out thin along Route 1 and is absolutely awful for walking to if you are not near the university. And riding a bike on Route 1 is a significant risk on your life.

You can assign them static IPs in DHCP, then run your own DNS server that returns local IPs for those hosts.

Or bridge those VMs on your macbook so it's a flat network, then use Avahi for mDNS so they all have .locals.

I switched to Evolution from Thunderbird recently and I must say, it is way more pleasant to use than Thunderbird.

You can use pre and post renewal hooks in order to temporarily disable those firewall rules.

Solutions exist to translate Vulkan to Metal.

Since Apple just added support to HomeKit for cameras I am sure this new standard they are making will support them too.

Would this make the WINE project in violation of copyright for MS Windows?

I'm glad you're interested. We really should write progress report blog posts or something, similar to Dolphin emulator or RPCS3. Yes, the Xcode command line tools should work for the most part when running in Darling. If you try to use Darling for development please create issues on our GitHub if an individual tool crashes or otherwise fails to work.

Unfortunately, git doesn't work at the moment, however this can be worked around by using Linux git since Darling works in your Linux home folder.

One cool thing that works is lldb, which for the most part fully works.

Darling also supports mounting disk images and installing .pkgs, which is really helpful.

In short, we support most of what you can do from Terminal already.

Homebrew and MacPorts currently don't but once we get them working they should make it easier to install packages in a Darling prefix.

We also have binary compatibility with standard Mach-Os from macOS.

Unfortunately, the other project members (around four of us) and me are often busy with our lives and don't always have the time needed to advance Darling, so we are exploring how we can improve outreach to attract more developers.

While we are similar to the WINE project in goal, at the moment we have nowhere near the resources they do, so it is difficult to accomplish our goals.

Hello, I am one of the Darling developers. Yes, we would love more help! A good deal of command line-only stuff is working at this point. GUI application support is limited but we are making progress.

We are also looking to improve the experience of first-time contributors and we welcome feedback related to how we can make it easier to give you the information and tools you need to contribute to Darling.

A ring route from Bethesda to Largo is under construction and it's called the Purple Line. Metrorail could be better and has it's own shortcomings but it is one of the best in the US and far from nonexistent.

And worst of all, it was a bit.ly link they clicked.

Who would have thought that GBA software is still being written in 2017? Awesome!

The problem is whether or not they are "former" spin doctors. One could continue their "spinning" with even more power when being put in charge of labeling media true or not.

It's similar to Buzzfeed but oriented more towards the male demographic.
