Using standard as an adjective to mean "used or accepted as normal or average" or "usual, common, or customary" makes a lot of sense. I just came back from touring my buddy's new woodshop. When people ask how it looks I will say "he has your standard set of woodshop tools." Nobody is going to wonder if it's an ISO, or ANSI standard set of woodshop tools.
clicking in dock is way easier than doing cmd-tab because cmd tab order keep changing . In dock we can easily discover the app as they don't move around.

Burning emits gross CO2 but not net CO2. And burning doesn't take up all that landfill space. So burning is better than burial.

Without the direct flag dd is pretty pointless. However, with the direct flag, you do un-bufferred I/O with precisely controlled block size. It the fastest way to ensure the data really go where you want it to go, in the fashion you like it to be, right at the moment.
While of course Haskell has more normal testing infrastructure available (eg. https://hspec.github.io/), my favorite bit of Haskell testing is QuickCheck, which IIUC started life in Haskell and has been reimplemented in other languages with various degrees of effectiveness and various degrees of connection to the original project.

No, up to the manufacturer, maybe the could sell those (as long as they aren't critical car blows up bugs).

These being re-take inhibitors and releasers is very interesting and concerning. That combination is typically not considered safe because you are increasing the amount of a given transmitter and diminishing your ability to deal with it.

Flipper Zero: Hottest Hacking Device of 2022?
Mushrooms have wildly varying potencies. Even if they are cloned and grown in the same batch there will be variance and some people like knowing the precise dose they will get.

People also complain about mushrooms causing nausea which is partially caused by inert organic matter. Some people may want options for reducing that.

Also, while psychedelic mushrooms are reasonable to cultivate, something like peyote isn't. With the rarity of peyote, I think it's disrespectful for anyone that isn't indigenous to take it and synthetic mescaline or it's analogues provides a way to get a very similar experience without the disrespect.

I'm not saying there's anything wrong with just taking mushrooms. Just throwing out some thoughts on possible reasons why some people might want to go other routes.
WSL not deeply integrated? When was the last time you used it? I can't imagine a use case where you need your core OS to be posix based, and WSL with whatever linux VM isn't good enough as a dev environment. VScode in windows with WSL is the perfect dev combo.

> SF uses millions to house homeless in hotels. They also have tens of millions dedicated to programs to help educate, find jobs, and get people off of drugs.

$100 million dollars divided by the approx. 8,000 homeless people in SF¹ (and that's just the ones the city was able to go around counting; I can guarantee that number's far below the actual homeless population) comes out to $12,500 per person. That doesn't cover the year's rent for even so much as a closet in SF, let alone something that even marginally qualifies as a home.

So no, the solution I claim has not been done. Far from it. I'm quite frankly amazed the city could find hotel rooms for that cheap - or, the more likely explanation being that the city is only putting that money toward a fraction of the homeless population.

Going through the historical versions (copying from my other comment):

- >=8.23 (2014-07-18) : max(128KiB, st_blksize(infile), st_blksize(outfile))

- >=8.17 (2012-05-10) : max(64KiB, st_blksize(infile), st_blksize(outfile))

- >=7.2 (2009-03-31) : max(32KiB, st_blksize(infile), st_blksize(outfile))

- at least as far back as 1996 : max(st_blksize(infile), st_blksize(outfile))

(In my psuedo-code, `st_blksize(fd)` is the `ST_BLKSIZE(buf)` of the result of `fstat(fd, buf)`.)

Funny stuff here, this is a long & opinionated rant against null or undefined pointer references in favor of functional. Little to do with functional programming - aside from how it handles this same construct.

Not it isn't - this is called reuse, in modern OOA&D its either inheritance or polymorphic composition. Some more modern approaches use 'mixins' and age old cross-cuts.

> It's literally illegal for many to just work from outside their jurisdiction.

Sadly, while your amusing pedantry is technically correct in a vacuum, it completely fails within the prior context given. Did you forget to the read the comments up to this point or were you aiming to give us a good laugh?

> Working physically from the office while a vast number of their peers are at home does not make it work from office.

Agreed. Hence the idea of venturing out into the world to meet with peers. If what you are struggling to say is that nobody wants to work with you, I guess that's life. Slavery is a thing of the past. You can't force people to do things they don't want to do.

> Sitting on zoom calls all day in the office has no discernible difference than sitting at home.

If you are using Zoom (or similar) all day you're not doing WFH. WFH brings very different operating semantics and doesn't just try to duplicate the office over the internet. What you describe is work from office. Location isn't the factor here.

> but to underline that empathizing with the opposing point of view

What points of view are you referring to? All we have is reality. Trying to ascribe emotions to attempts to understand the world is bad faith participation. Granted, this may be the result of not having read the prior comments as suggested above. But replying without having read the comments is also bad faith participation.

> Turns out people like to work with people they like

Seems they don't else they would work together. WFH encourages people to work together in the flesh so if it is not happening what does that tell us? That certain individuals are best avoided? I can agree with that, although I have to wonder why that was worth pointing out if that was your goal.

Steel as well. The big integrated U.S. steelmakers like U.S. Steel went bankrupt because most steel today is no longer produced from iron ore. Rather, something like 80% of the steel produced today is made by melting down scrap steel in electric arc furnaces, which is a completely different technology & supply chain stack.

Not really. Compare a E5-2690 (same Sandy Bridge core as the 3970x just a bit lower clock) to a Mac M1: https://www.anandtech.com/show/11544/intel-skylake-ep-vs-amd... versus https://www.anandtech.com/show/11544/intel-skylake-ep-vs-amd...

The M1 is more than twice as fast in many SPECint subtests, such as 403.GCC and 464.h264ref. That’s just integer code, nothing that would exercise the vector units or anything like that.

They are off the charts. We're really proud of our baby.

The short answer is that we built a database from the ground up (only one external dependency) in Rust to leverage a universalized data architecture model we created. That's all we feel comfortable saying at the moment.

>Apple controls the hardware and the operating system.

They do now, but prior to ASi, they were using Intel CPUs and AMD/Nvidia GPUs until Nvidia pissed them off so badly around 2010-2011 that they went exclusive with AMD.

The trashcan Mac Pro had a GPU issue that affected renders from Resolve. Resolve said AMD. AMD said Apple. Apple said not us, and crossed their arms pointing at the other two. The fun thing was if you used BootCamp to run windows on the exact same hardware with the Windows version of Resolve on the exact same footage using the same grading session, the timeline would render without any errors. Reboot back as Mac, and render errors. So, clearly, not a hardware issue. Definitely seemed software, but I gave up on the issue well before any errors were resolved but switching back to the latest cheese grater chassis.
