I want to use the GTX1050, so I set gpu-index to 1. Only 1 CUDA device so I set cuda-index to 0. To use the OpenCL device for the GTX, I looked at the bus # (bus 2), found OpenCL device on bus 2 (device 0), so I set opengl-index to 0. Not sure if this is the right way, but it worked for me.

It kind of is and isn't.

So sbin is reserved for system binaries concerned with booting, administrative tools, repairing/restoring (the system), and the like.

Since these essential utilities by their very nature require superuser privileges, it's tempting to think that sbin simply means "superuser binaries" or something.

Someone else mentioned "statically linked", which is also true, but again just a side-effect of being for system programs. The programs in sbin need to be able to run without /usr, /lib, or /bin being mounted or even existing is the idea here.

To me personally - and this is just my uniformed(!) opinion - the only split that makes sense across all circumstances is /bin vs /sbin and /var vs /.
Simply because anything but /var could safely be considered read-only, while /var exists explicitly for writable data ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Most other laptop keyboards crams a pgup/pgdown key around the up key though. I often rest one of the fingers in that space making the laptop arrowkeys a bit annoying to use.
This is one of the problems that arise in these discussions and I'm glad you clarified what you were thinking of.

"Industrial" spans a wide range. The problem I run into is that when I mention using Arduino or pi in industrial applications, people immediately jump to thoughts of extremely harsh environments and safety-critical applications. There are plenty of existing solutions to those problems.

Where the Pi shines is in "light industrial" tasks that a standard PC would be unsuited for (cost, size, I/O, power consumption, etc), but the environmental requirements aren't stressful. Those can be anything from counting rebar loaded onto a rack or providing help to truckers at a loading dock.

Even so, I have lots of small devices (arduino clones, Raspberry Pi) in machine control applications and they've been working very well.
Most loans are against tangible, reposseable assets, or against future income streams. A bank that just handed out loans without commensurate interest rates to avoid the risk of default would quickly go out of business.

I'm going to develop an alarm app that flashes the iPad screen red and blares an alarm when the user, walking with their head down, ignores the crosswalk signs and steps into the path of a car that has the right of way.

Actually, I'm the one using the specific terminology (from Win32) here. A console is a specific I/O abstraction, widely known as such. Whereas "I'd claim that a terminal system plus ncurses is a console" is your own idiosyncratic nonce definition, in contrast.

Console I/O has a demonstrable evolution over the course of the 1980s, as I have already explained several times, a lot of which was to address the shortcomings of the 1960s terminal I/O model.

I see many complicated explanations for "why all([]) behaves this way" that justify the behavior as good because of logical or mathematical purity. I am implying that these explanations are so long worded because they're wrong. I think they are good reasons for keeping the behavior as-is, but the code was probably written first and was written to be simple and just happens to produce mathematically consistent behavior at an edge case. It would be interesting to see the history of the function, to see if the implementation has changed.

There's no need to think in terms of rings here ((+,*) and (|,&) together) - Monoids are precisely the most powerful algebraic object we need to consider here (only one binary operation at a time). All of these binary operations form a monoid.
I don't think you've thought this through. What are the banks going to do if they don't receive their payments? How are you going to bail them out? With a loan? Why not give that loan to those who need it instead of kicking the can down the road?
> We regularly harass him about getting one, and I suspect he eventually will.

But... why? Are you paid by apple to harass people to buy their products... or why are you doing that?!
To be fair, I never said get rid of minimum wage. I was talking about pushing it up to things like $20. The point I was trying to make is that if you go too high, you cause people to just up tax brackets and higher costs at the places they shop because those workers are also making $20/hour now too. Some people think tools like EITC helps the poor more than pushing minimum wage up and I tend to agree. I don't think EITC goes far enough and I would remove all federal taxes for people who earn less than some $X/year.
This was one of those few cases were the split was necessary. You could ship a very small initrd via bootp (or floppy, or much later, CDROM), and once it came up it could mount /usr over NFS. In case there were problems with the NFS mount, you still had some utilities in /bin for troubleshooting. The alternative was 'remote root NFS', where the root filesystem itself was NFS, and any network problems hosed the machine entirely. Trying to attach some alternative troubleshooting tools into a thin-terminal, or customize the bootp server to boot a troubleshooting image just for the one malfunctioning box, was a lot more painful than just shipping troubleshooting tools in /bin.

Did anybody ask for an opinion on that? At worse the parent misattributed a pronoun which can be fixed with a clarification from the grandparent ("actually it's a she" etc). At best he's correct, as it's more likely statistically given the demographics here.
> In the early 1970s, Dr. Catmull was a Ph.D. student at the University of Utah under one of the founding fathers of computer graphics, Ivan Sutherland.

Off topic - I had an opportunity to meet and spend time with Ivan Sutherland, also a Turing award winner [0]. Ivan was one of the most "fun" scientists I have met and spoken with. His conversations were full with humor and humility.

I was walking past the street where Ivan (he insisted to call me that) was having a coffee. He asked me if I'd like to join him for one - pleasantly surprised, I said yes. The next 45m was Ivan telling me about a research problem he was working on and asking "tips" on how I would solve it. Initially, I was hesitant but he insisted and took me along a journey inside his wonderful mind.

I think you are babysitting users too much.

Terminal is basic IT literacy. Or at least, it should be. And it can't be if you protect people from it like its some kind of baba yaga.
> What most people use a computer for these days are not what we use a computer for. Most people probably require little except a phone for most computing needs.

Most people also don't buy such costly computers, so I'm not sure why do you think a hugely expensive iPad "PRO" would be something meant for "most" people.
My personal favourite is the 'barn', an area approximately the size of the face of a uranium nucleus, invented to covertly describe a large-ish target size to hit (the 'broad side of a barn') with a particle beam.

It's the right choice for practical reasons as well as theoretical/mathematical ones. It means that you generally don't have to special case the empty list case, you can just run let it happily do nothing. If you want exceptional behavior then you should probably use some other value (e.g. None)

From a purely theoretical point of view, there are things Newtonian physics and modern physics predict differently, particularly for very big or very small or very fast objects. So in that sense Einstein DID falsify Newton. What you're missing is Newtonian physics' subject was not very big or very small or very fast object so for the things scientists researched on, they predicted things quite well. But that only means they overfit to the universe around earth, and weren't able to model the universe in its entirety. Although you do have a good point, it's not true to say Einstein did not falsify Newton.
Perhaps we can finally stop jumping down Apple's throats for daring to sell a computer this time around.

> When developing software in Windows, however, there's simply no need.

This tells more about your skils then anything else. If there is NO NEED for that in your world, there is defintelly a NEED for you to dive into it - something you don't know you can't use or find a need for it.
Optimizing your local workflows is worth the effort at every team size.

I think the attempts to make local workflows mirror production 1:1 (local k8s, for example) are misguided. They miss too hard on the productivity story. Especially once you start having to swap out local debugging for remote debugging (which only a handful of languages support effectively).

This is the biggest miss for many companies striving for microservice architecture. The local development story is terrible, and it stays terrible, without a lot of opinionated decisions around what your dev workflow needs to look like past the ~3-5 services mark. At a past gig I had to change 5 different repositories (5 separate PRs, all needing approval) to send an email. In a rails app that would have been a trivial task.
I completely agree. My 2014 MacBook Pro purchased refurbished still has the best keyboard of all the devices I use. The Lenovo X1 I use for work is a close second.

What I noticed in the image that made me excited about this device is the function keys. If the 16in MBP had function keys, I probably would have purchased one already. I do wonder if the top spec of the new MBA is going to hold up to my usage though.
i don't know how is he able to compile rust. I have 2 core MBP 13inch 2017 macbook pro.

Rust compilation takes like 15 seconds for small changes in actix project. For amethyst game library i wouldn't even try.
I have a 2017 Macbook Pro and the main project I work on brings it to its knees. This is a front end project with a nodejs graphql server, TypeScript, eslint, VS.Code, webpack. I think actually the linting is the worst CPU drain, but all in all with the graphql server and front end tooling running at once, it makes my laptop slower than running the .NET core back end it connects to.

Kind of annoying. Working with a simple create-react-app project with TypeScript is fine though.
Regardless of using the start menu or not, there's a lot of background tracking (for user behaviour and ads) that needs to be disabled by registry edits. In addition to those, there's probably more that cannot be disabled.

I've a professional programmer, but horrible at math. Don't have any formal education and even less education about discrete math. So for me this was educational and I thank the author for putting it down in writing and sharing the knowledge.

I'm sure I'm not alone on HN or in the software industry with this.

>Unless we know that deaths from the virus are greater than the deaths caused by the second-and-third-order effects of panicking

Do you believe that when the death toll raises from non-panicking and not imposing a lockdown (not to mention the total saturation of the healthcare system), that wont create even more panic and self-lockdown -- and have their own second and third order effects?
Its double work. You mandatory need CLI for build server anyway, and you generally DONT need IDE for anything

"quality of life" what's that, that's a question. Does buying new car every 3 years is a condition for a good life quality? New iPhone every 2 years? Pair of shoes/trousers or fashionable t-shirt every month? Maybe people will just discover that driving older car does not really deteriorate their life quality and new iPhone does not really matter, it just allows Apple to put more cash on the huge pile they already have. Maybe Tim Cook will not afford new jet or yacht next year, but, frankly, who cares?
Why don’t you call and ask them. Better yet you should talk to both landlords and attempt to push this date back some. What are you going to do if you or the movers get injured?

State was defined by political borders, country by geographical borders. For much of human history states were countries. The blurring of the meaning of these words I believe started around the 18th century as transportation, and thus the ability to rule further away, progressed.

Well healthcare isn't organized on an European level but on a country level, so that's why the policy is directed on a country level but that doesn't mean there isn't any communication between countries. It's just that you mainly care about the countries you have a lot of (border)traffic with and not really about countries on the other side of the EU. I just watched the technical briefing to the Dutch parliament and the head of the RIVM (Dutch CDC equivalent) said that they are in close contact with for example the Italian hospitals to see what works and what doesn't.

I would like the EU to take more control over manufacturing protection gear and ventilators, and distribute them as needed over the EU.
I recently used Pop!_OS and it was great. It's a better Ubuntu, with less junk preloaded. It's probably the nicest linux distro I've used. Nothing earth-shattering, but just a very good user experience.
I bought a 13 inch Macbook Pro in 2017 and within six months of normal use the spacebar and other other key were intermittent. I was fortunately able to get it fixed under warranty.

However I've been using since then with no need for servicing and the keys are at this moment perfect. Various keys have become intermittent since then but I found a trick that so far has fixed it every time.

The key mechanism seems to be VERY robust and can take a lot of pounding. Usually the particles jamming the mechanism (e.g. food crumbs) can be broken up by repeatedly banging hard on the offending key.

I've had keys that were intermittent or even not come all the way up and this has always fixed them to be literally as good as new. It seems that once the particles are broken small enough they either remain in place but are harmless or maybe they are small enough to fall out by themselves.

That's funny, because I stopped using a Mac a few years ago out of frustration that its OS updates consistently broke things.
