Not in France, at least not immediately. The antipiracy authority first sends you an email (1st warning), then an IRL letter (2nd warning). When you receive the IRL letter, THEN you should VPN (or SOCKS or whatever) for one year, then you can go turn it off until you receive your 2nd warning again, if that happens.

I received my fair share of 1st warnings during the past ~15 years. I only received my first 2nd warning this year. I configured a systemd service `ssh -D myvps` and configured deluged to use this SOCKS5 proxy. Waiting for next April to turn it off...
It's not just that it doesn't emit light, it doesn't appear to reflect or absorb light either. If it did, we should be able to pick it up through spectral analysis.
Well spotted, and in reality it would more likely be 4096x4096 plane, encoded as 12 bits + 12 bits = 3 bytes. And probably 30 FPS giving 90 B/s. So the only problem is how often you want to send those packets, but the bandwidth of the cursor data becomes completely irrelevant.

I've never said it's "superior". I simply mean it's good enough. I should probably have been more clear on that.

Also:

But then

> I can depend on it [NFT/public ledger] if I need to defend myself against claims of piracy and theft of intellectual property, no matter where I am in the world

Sorry but I find this contradictory. Can you please explain why the receipt is only relevant me and the content provider but a public ledger isn't? You mean "relevant" as in "there are more actors that can give a 'truth value' to the transaction"?
Yeah good point, it seems like something that should have rolled into all those privacy laws.

You can’t adopt DRY or SPOT or anything else if you aren’t free to refactor and you aren’t free to refactor without some tests.

The thing you stated is that k8s allows people to easily deploy across different cloud providers due to lack of vendor lock in. k8s doesn't because nobody uses it for that - the cost of getting it tunning compared to simpler alternatives removes all value from the cross-platform abilities. That's why k8s is a DevOps meme.

People forget that DRY means "Every piece of knowledge must have a single, unambiguous, authoritative representation within a system".

The principle concerns the duplication of knowledge, not code.

Author's reference to "accidental duplication" is caused by two similar code that represents different code that is when joined becomes the code that is ambiguous in meaning.

You're engaging in toxic victim-shaming. What, you expect him to just bend over and accept people stealing his ideas without giving him credit? Fundamentally the researchers who stole from him were engaging in unethical behaviour and shouldn't be allowed to get away with that without consequence.

To speak to the wider point about DRY, it's a guiding principle for abstraction. If you have two kinds of abtractions for your method, one leads to code repetition, the other does not. Generally favour the does not.

The fact that you should have additional rules, like you shouldn't need rabbit hole debugging (jumping through a million files/objects) to understand core behaviour is not a failure of a useful guiding principle

wxWidgets has a sublime idea: an api that is just a wrapper over native controls. For cross platform frameworks it is fast and light. The very opposite of bloatware.

But it also has a terrible flaw: its heavy-templated C++ api, hard to port to other languages.

I don't want to get stuck on C++. I want to use Go and Rust. And all the wxWidgets ports to those languages suck, big time.

Show me a solid wxWidgets for Rust and I'll fall in love again. Yes, I'd also colaborate on that project, too.

> dependence on Putin's Russia

First, it's Russia, not Putin's Russia. It's derogatory to frame discussion like that. Should we also start putting "Biden's USA" and "Macron's France"? Just writing this way, and suddenly both USA and France appear like some fourth world banana republics.

Second, both Russia and Soviet Union before were the most reliable energy partner. They didn't fail their obligations a single time.

Reduction in Russian gas should be blamed on NATO sanctions that prevented a timely maintenance of North Stream 1 by confiscation of the gas turbine, and the refusal to start using North Stream 2 although it is ready to deliver gas tomorrow, if Germany decides so.

I would suggest Void Main’s album “Deadlock” – it’s the only music I know with a programming theme as well as being mostly instrumental and made for listening while programming. It used to be available on the old mp3.com (at http://artists.mp3s.com/artists/241/void_main.htm), but MP3.com was killed many ages ago. The artist still has the album cover and the tracks available on his home page, though. Note especially “Escape Sequence” which has authentic C++ programming sounds, and “Follow the GNU” with lyrics by Richard Stallman.

It's not a hardware limitation, but many vendors are still using AMD only in their budget SKUs and using Intel in their flagships.

Since the AMD SKUs are aimed at a different price-point, they generally don't have higher end display options.
I thought the same thing - the way the problem is stated doesn't explicitly discount the distance walked before reaching any of the elevators, so logically the answer will depend on the configuration of the lobby and where you first enter it...or at least the position of the elevator call button. E.g. if the call button is to the left of all 3 elevators, it definitely makes sense to walk to the first of those, but any further is adding distance that will be doubled if that leftmost elevator is the first to arrive. I'm pretty sure even if the next two elevators are 100s of metres away, the mean distance walked from the moment you press the call button will go up if you start walking towards them, but haven't tried proving it.
This actually looks alright. I got burned with .Net Razor pages in a previous professional project, so am a little wary of .net based setups. The advertising material looks good tho.

Article says it is better to actually read the paper instead of trying to figure it out.

I disagree on that. It is a good exercise to try to prove it by yourself and it was actually quite fun

Main mistakes author makes though

- trying to prove it works without first understanding why / how it works. Always simulate test-runs on paper / in your head before

- trying to prove on machine first. Always make sure you can do the proof on paper first. Then and only then should you battle with your verifier / solver to get it to understand your proof

The reason - to make it only readable by human eyes - doesn’t make sense. It is always only ever readable by human eyes since bots don’t have eyes. You don’t mean eyes, but consciousness? Bots don’t have consciousness, at least until AGI isn’t here yet.

By being indexed by bots and published on the Web, it’s just more human eyes. If you just want certain human eyes, then you instead need access control.

By trying to exclude machines you just make it harder for humans to use the information, like copy pasting, text-to-speech, screen readers for the blind, etc.

The key thing is, we need a better grid in Europe. While we do have a better grid than the US, simply measured by checking outage rates, it is nowhere near large enough to allow large scale transfer of power across the continent.

Assuming we had a decently sized cross-continental grid, it would be possible to have a lot of overcapacity in wind farms pretty much anywhere on the European coast lines - particularly in Portugal [1] and other areas with constant, strong wind power - and then transferring it to countries which do not have enough wind power.

Additionally, we could transform our industry, particularly aluminium smelters (for example, in Germany one percent of the entire power usage of the country goes to just two huge plants in Essen and Hamburg [2]) to seasonal production - basically, they would only be allowed to produce during the summer when there is enough solar power available. This will be expensive, yes, but unlike the sparsely settled US Europe simply has nowhere to store the waste of nuclear energy.

That's not actually a bad observation even though you were downvoted. I think in the end it's technically ambiguous but most people would be able to see what is meant especially given the previous performance is present (i.e. for benchmark "deltablue" we have columns "12.4 ms" and "6.35 ms (1.96x faster)".

But you're right, I think "1.96x as fast" sounds more correct.

edit: but now that I think about it "X as fast" or "X faster" in terms of a duration will always sound a bit weird
