Modern watches too, e.g. Casio digital watches marketed as integrating their "Wave Ceptor"/"Multi-Band 6" feature[1].

I still use a 17-year-old (batch code[2] 202A327G) G-Shock GW-530A (predecessor of this active offering[3]) that syncs with WWVB every morning several hours before dawn.

Can you point to which LIDAR dataset? I did not see any openstreetmap datasets with the tree present.
Yes, was about to say the same, then saw your comment.

IIRC, Peldi, Balsamiq founder, had blogged about it at the time. I like it too. Also reminds me vaguely of the Comic Sans font, which was the rage even earlier.
Stop using Debian based distros, this a deliberate choice on their part. Use a rolling release like Fedora.
>> I'm not sure it's what you intended, but this sounds like you might be saying that a perfectly acceptable future would be to have an elite class of educated,

The meat of this article is that right leaning kids are the ones not going to college. IM not suggesting it, its what thee article says, there's literal data for it.

The folks I know who are hard core republicans all have jobs that puts dirt under their nails. They do the sorts of jobs that your either trained for or have to go dig up some info from esoteric sources (think the whole earth catalog). It's the I, Pencil problem... there are lots of smart people out there who are very educated that have ZERO clue about how the most basic parts of our world function.

The issue is memory. Every library in an app image has a unique memory space and so you have a bunch of copies of sometimes very large libraries sitting in memory rather than one copy from disk mmapped into memory and page duplicated all over the place.
After reading this I went through all the OSM datasets I could see (including double-checking the layers) and none of them showed the tree. Now I’m even more curious.
> a lot of the responses here seem really uncharitable. This isn't bad faith, it's just a rushed product with some poor planning.

But it’s not the product people are criticizing, at all. Similar tools have existed for a long time and have not raised eyebrows except when it’s been forced by an employer or a school. It’s that it’s the OS putting an always on and enabled-by-default spyware on devices that are frequently shared by family members, when their average users who barely know what a web browser is and will just accept recommended defaults. Speaking of which, the whole spiel about Edge/IE is precisely their aggressive defaults. It’s the same here.

If you’re a startup building custom tools you can talk about rushed products and assume good intent. This software is built by a software company with some of the worlds best software engineers all the way up to the top. I mean, people trust them with everything from business secrets to payment details to mission critical services. This is clearly not a “rushed product oopsie”, it’s blatant disregard for privacy, and to a lesser extent, security.

I’m avoiding windows like the plague, but since seeing my mom get bombarded with “recommended Microsoft defaults” over the last decade or so, I’m convinced MS is deliberately exploiting uninformed users as much as they can get away with, while leaving hidden options for power users to disable the ads and the crapware so they don’t leave. This total recall debacle is probably a similar attempt at using their unknowing user base to train their new AI models, or similar. If it was a genuinely useful product it would not be enabled by default.
Thanks for posting the update here. I was going to point out that 0.5ns for anything is almost always a sign of benchmarks being optimized away.

But even if those numbers had been accurate, it is important to think about how they compare to the operations being performed. Taking 4 nanoseconds to check for an error sentinel is not a huge deal when you've spent microseconds or even milliseconds waiting for a network service.
80% is about what I remember. Haven't given that test since 2015 when I left that job. But yes, your solution would have been acceptable: it didn't even need to compile, or be bug free, just show a clear logical path to the solution.

The point is that the vast majority of candidates, including some with Master's degrees in CS, could not write even a pseudocode solution to this problem. It got so bad that I started doing a verbal fizzbuzz test during the phone screen so we didn't waste so much time.
Later on the author makes the point that everything changes some various register deep in the guts of the CPU so by definition everything is always effect-full, but since we invented programming languages to get away from writing assembly, we shouldn’t consider that an effect when we’re not writing assembly. We invented many programming languages to get away from writing allocations and pointers into buffers too.

That website conveys very little useful information for understanding what makes this distro unique. I don't know what antiX or Mepis are. Why would I choose this over a more well known and presumably better supported distro?
assuming seeing “dicks” upset you, and you think “cunts” would upset someone else, this seems less like equality and more like an attempt at hurting others due to hurt.

or are you truly glad?
I agree with you.

The go standard library uses sentinel errors. ErrNotFound is actually good to use, because otherwise, a `Get` call can end up returning `nil, nil` (*Value, error). Which is just bad.
Out of curiosity is there any point to a loop that doesn’t produce some effect in its body? Obviously I mean traditional imperative looping constructs and not map functions that return a value.
RDS beats it in almost every aspect. Running your own on native NVMe blows both of them out of the water for performance and price.

And that reminded me that some people were nervous about doing the nested loop solution so asked if they could "brute force" it and we would accept that. Interview stress is a thing after all.

I'm intrigued by the slice/map solution. It would have been perfectly acceptable if you could explain what the functions did. In fact, it would have led to very probing conversations: my usual interview partner and me had a deep interest in elegant solutions.

Is there any reason to use nano over vim other than learning curve?

If nano ever gets run for some reason (e.g. I forgot to set EDITOR) I immediately quit and launch vim.

I readily admit nano is easier for beginners to get something done, but I don't see any value in it if you already know vim enough for basic edits.

Before someone argues that “this requires enough background technical knowledge to know which buttons to press to make it easy” there is a point there, but distro maintainers have had that point in front of them for decades.

There’s now only one prerequisite for new users: the willingness to format the hard drive. Everything else is trivial and for 9/10 distros the screens are welcoming, clear, refined, and non-technical.

They usually have an offset and a DST option. So in Arizona you'd choose -7/Off, and never touch it again. In Colorado you'll have to toggle DST twice a year manually, because it doesn't know the rules for when it starts/ends.
Sure, but those are not related to Aurora or this post.
Here's an easy way to test the curvature of these examples. Draw a circle (all points equidistant to a given one) centered at a point on one of the "glue" edges. The amount that the circumference of that circle is short of the expected 2πr is a measure of the curvature at that point.

In the two-discs sphere construction, a circle centered on the disc boundaries will appear half in each disc. But it will be short of the usual circumference due to the shape of the discs. All the curvature has been pushed to these boundaries.

In the cube, a circle centered at a vertex will appear on three sides; its circumference will be three-quarters of the usual value. Note that all the curvature of the cube is at the vertices, not the edges!

For the portal-torus, try drawing a circle anywhere, passing through the portals... it will have the usual circumference, zero curvature everywhere.
Ah, sorry, I understand what you mean now. Yeah, I've also filtered out images when calculating the color percentages and there are definitely some funky results.

There's definitely a middle-ground approach here, I just haven't found a good enough heuristic. It's true that images are part of the branding and they impact the color palette, like banners and logos, so they should be considered in some quantity. I thought of maybe averaging the results of image/no image but I don't have enough test data to validate it yet.

Let's chat and discuss more! I'll also add you on Twitter/X

I don't disagree, but I was more talking about the instances of PE acquisitions that get squeezed out. Obviously though you are right, at the end of the day they will want to make the business look as attractive as possible when they offload it. But to me that's still better than getting bought out to get squeezed and left to rot

It feels pretty uncharitable for Redpanda to enforce their terms when they haven't done anything of value with it yet. They made a bold claim that you'll have to pay them to use these features, but you certainly don't as they're still available under MIT licensing.

One does not simply buy Open Source Software.

Until Redpanda actually makes any code changes, the ~three now-proprietary plugins are still available as Open Source Software: just browse to the commit before they slapped their license at the top.

These are all MIT and bit-for-bit identical to the now-proprietary plugins:

PE is a big category. Most PE-purchased companies are entirely boring and aren't imploding like these companies you hear about in the news.

I know it seems like every PE backed company just explodes immediately because that's all we hear about in the news, but the selection bias of news stories means you're only hearing about the interesting stories where there's something to report on. Nobody is reporting on PE-purchased companies that are quietly continuing to operate.

It’s a process I’ve seen play out many times in my state. The legislature will pass a bad law. The courts will explain the situation, fix it, and move on.

The legislature then won’t have the votes to pass a contradictory amendment, so they “codify” in a way that leaves something out of context or creates an ambiguity.

Litigants then cite the statute instead of the precedent… even though they legislature never actually changed the law.

> It's basically a few small rungs down from sacrificing prisoners to Quetzalcoatl and the rain gods, which is graphic but no more dehumanizing.

The sacrifice would then be laid on a stone slab, a chacmool, by four priests, and their abdomen would be sliced open by a fifth priest with a ceremonial knife made of flint. The most common form of human sacrifice was heart-extraction. . . . The cut was made in the abdomen and went through the diaphragm. The priest would rip out the heart and it would then be placed in a bowl held by a statue of the honored god, and the body would then be thrown down the temple's stairs. . . .

The body parts would then be disposed of, the viscera fed to the animals in the zoo, and the bleeding head was placed on display in the tzompantli or the skull rack. When the consumption of individuals was involved, the warrior who captured the enemy was given the meaty limbs while the most important flesh, the stomach and chest, were offerings to the gods.
