Yes. I'd gone round to see her and I checked her history to ensure it wasn't dodgy.

My mother tried to buy something on Amazon yesterday. It wouldn't let her check-out until she'd entered a code sent via WhatsApp. Which she doesn't have and doesn't want. She'll be buying her tat on eBay in future.

I dream that Amazon will lose lots of sales and backtrack, but I don't suppose they will.

This is a thing in show homes on new-build estates in the UK. British houses are often tiny.

Even NUMA is a "flat space of contiguous addresses". There's no bank switching or whatever. Yes, the access times are non-uniform, but that's orthogonal. The point of my comment to the OP is that if you're going to be super-pedantic about this stuff, you need to get your terminology right.

But physical memory is a giant flat space of contiguous addresses. Do you mean virtual memory?

Yes. There were far too many people with nothing to contribute doing useless (or actively harmful) busywork to earn points.

The User-Mode Driver Framework is a thing. Most plug-in devices do not need (or have) a kernel-mode driver.

Say it five times into a mirror and Sam Altman will appear to deliver your pink slip.

Schrodinger's hackers. They are simultaneously autistic and skilled at social engineering.

I know lots of old people who have instant access to quite significant sums of money and many of them just don't need it. I don't need it. I'd be happy to opt-in to, say, a three day wait period on new payment recipients, but my bank doesn't offer that.

If it's the only thing you make available. If you want other options you can add other options.

We will reach some kind of equilibrium. It is literally impossible for things to continue as they are.

It's a game changer and it's less than five grand each. The US national debt is more than $100,000 each.

Just to state the obvious, you can create a view which uses these functions to make your integer date/times readable, and then debugging is easy.

It's a crime too. If the Feds take an interest he could get ten years.

It has Playtime vibes.

Cheers, I had missed the nuance.

For any particular Java program, there's obviously an algorithm that says whether it halts or not. The algorithm is a single statement, which says either "yes" or "no".

This isn't true.

In general, if a program hasn't halted yet you don't know if it will.

In particular, consider the Collatz conjecture. You can't even tell if your Java implementation of it will halt for a particular input, until it does.

Holy slopfest Batman!

Python uses floored division so the remainder has the sign of the divisor instead

Serious question, how is that a footgun? In decades of software development I have never needed a negative divisor for modulo. What would you use it for?

e.g. President Drumpf.

That should call it coccyx. That sounds like something Trump would support.

This is risk scores for celebrities looking for free tickets. Does anyone really care?

I'm old enough to remember Walkmans coming out in 1979, which was the start of the end of the boombox era. Approximately no-one was using 8-track at that point.

Fire!

Because the EU passed a law making it illegal and the temporary exemption recently expired.

Yes. These methods don't work reliably. Apply a blur and they still don't work reliably.

The American embassy considers them to have sufficient legitimacy to invite them.

Shouldn't offending side reimburse the expenses?

In an ideal world. They might even be legally liable in this one. But you still have to sue them to get the money, which is an expensive gamble for a very small pay off.
