And one day a right wing government will shut down left wing speech they call "hate speech" or "harmful" and your "reason" will take flight to the winds.

Yet to play this one. Recently played Full Throttle and it was great. I guess I have to go back and replay Maniac Mansion since the 90s?

Won't work. The reason multiplayer games work over the internet is game engines compensate for latency by prediction. But when I move my mouse I don't want to wait a third of a second for the view to change. The problem with Google is they test everything on local 10G networks with near zero latency and the servers are walking distance away. Then they produce these abortions of products that are killed off 2 years later.

Yeah basic input lag is about as enticing as a 2KG chunk of a plastic helmet strapped to my head.

I bet in 10 years time we will still be playing on a PC with a GPU and a monitor on the desk.

Yeah well the guy who wrote qemu also did ffmpeg.

or embed it in their applications (whether they ship those applications to customers or run them as a service). They can even run it as a service internally. The one and only thing that you cannot do is offer a commercial version of CockroachDB as a service

Great so I will write a little shim that loads libcockroach and call it TermiteDB and I'm set.

Refusal to vaccinate your children may result in the termination of your service and, probably, your children.

Did you say something about wanting my money or was I just imagining it?

Well it's better than the trashcan....but still not as good as the original alumINium box.

So that's why I can't login to YouTube this morning...

a fundamental overhaul to an automated system that would ultimately play a role in two crashes

Are they STILL blaming the computer instead of the unstable air-frame after the engines were moved?

Cool watching this in real time. Co-founder just intervened and got it back up. Still....

What activities do they do in Canada?

Do they operate in Canada though?

Err...volatile just tells the compiler not to cache the value in a register, that's it. If you don't understand volatile you really, really are not the kind of programmer who should even think about using it.

Thank God for free speech and God Bless President Trump.

Not being associated with COBOL is hardly a bad thing...

Seems they get Korean names right more often than not...see a lot of Kim Jong Il (and similar)....except if they have a westernized first name like Gloria Kim.

Chaos theory was the 90s machine learning.

As Carmack observes, you don't see in 3D. You see two 2D planes that your brain extracts a certain amount of depth information from

This is semantics. Replace "3D UIs" with "UIs that make use of depth" and see what you get.

The ghost of Perl5 lives on...

With the super-computers sold at Best Buy? Good question....

Yes.

What's the Unix Time for the UTC second 1985-06-30 23:59:60? My understanding is this physical second

That's not a physical second, it's a calendar second.

leap seconds can not be referenced in Unix time

UNIX time does not represent/reference calendar time, it represents the number of physical seconds since 1970-01-01UTC. How you translate that into local calendar time is up to you!

Unix seconds ARE physical seconds.

Every day has 86400 Unix Seconds.

Except a day with a leap second in it.

Unix time cannot represent the seconds beyond 23:59:59 on a UTC day, but otherwise attempts to match UTC.

Err...it literally represents ~49 years beyond 23:59:59 on Day1 of UTC.

Correct. When was the last time you changed UNIX time due to summer time/daylight savings?

This guy is confusing Unix time with local time. This statement:

Unix time is the number of seconds since 1 January 1970 00:00:00 UTC

Is true regardless of the calender or leap seconds. Think of seconds in terms of some physical phenomena, like how many times a certain atom trapped in a crystal lattice vibrates and you see that doesn't depend on the calendar. Converting Unix time to local time obviously has to take that into account, but we still need an absolute measure of our progress does the timeline which is what Unix time provides.

This is why we use Unix time, it's the same everywhere and nothing short of relativity can affect it.

Err...that's the exact basis of the original google search algorithm, and what made it so good. You should read up on it, you might learn something.

This is totally fake.

Google has to MANIPULATE it's search results to put NPR first.

The smaller sites are linked to more often but Google doesn't want you to see them for political reasons.

The smaller sites don't want regulation - they want and end to manipulation and censorship.

And most reasonable conservative people see NPR,BBC at least as garbage extremist left wing outlet, and would not want to see them at all.

and underscores the importance of pilots understanding severe runaway trim recovery procedures.

So we're back to blaming the pilots?

If you're just writing a small routing server, probably not the right use case for Java.

General purpose languages have "use-cases"?
