I have an old server motherboard that does not support UEFI. Otherwise it still runs fine.

I came here to ask why it matters to the GPU how the host boots. Does it need to load some drivers or firmware before the host OS? The only thing I found in the article was "... may lose access to important and necessary features of your motherboard,"

I have to say that the median crate I interact with has the following readme:

Rust is another programming language. It's easier to write code without a certain class of bugs, but that doesn't mean version 0.2 of a casual project is going to be bug-free.

Very suspicious. (Dare I say "Concerning"? :p) From another source with a bit more context for those numbers:

> Tesla’s Canadian stores are company-owned and directly controlled by the company. [...] Four Tesla stores in Canada each sold an average of 30 cars per hour, amounting to 120 cars per hour across all four locations—essentially one car every minute, 24 hours a day… for three straight days. And yes, this includes hours when the stores were closed.

> Tesla’s $43.1 million in rebates took up more than half of the cash left allotted for EV subsidies remaining. That meant that by the time some other dealers attempted to get their own subsidies, the money had run out. [...] 226 [non-Tesla] dealerships submitted rebate claims for 2,295 electric vehicles but still haven’t been reimbursed, leaving them collectively out by C$10 million.

Was shut in a crate. Probably died of dehydration. Pretty awful. All dog crates ought to come with a mechanical timer mechanism to automatically unlatch them if they're left unattended for too long.
I used to use CSM mode because I didn't understand how UEFI worked, specifically the Boot Manager.

My Boot Manager always ended up full of old entries of OSes that I had already deleted, and it caused some issues. This was not a problem in compatibility mode.

But then I read an article [1] and learned how to manage the Boot Manager.

Then I made a video [2] summarizing what I learned from the article.

But to this day, I defend the point that UEFI is not a drop-in replacement for BIOS, because if you install and delete OSs frequently, you need to know how to manage the Boot Manager to avoid ending up with a mess.

This is wrong.

Google kills off projects because the legal liability and security risks of those projects becomes too large to justify for something that has niche uses or gives them no revenue. User data is practically toxic waste.

I was just thinking similarly about my eyes. I'm seriously considering LASIK or similar, but there's plenty of anecdotes saying that it's not as safe as the data suggests. So I've been planning for blind coding and such as a contingency against failure. These days you can also ask it to explain the file structure and such.
It is very much not being turned into synchronous code. There are a lot of reasons to use async code, and they're all still valid with this pattern.

For example:

- the event loop is still not being blocked

- the calling code can still be flat instead of nested callbacks (truly synchronous) or chained `.then` calls

Is it a little bit more boilerplate? Yes, definitely, and it's certainly less nice to look at. But it's linter-enforceable consistency that removes the cognitive overhead of an annoying to debug footgun.

Note: My favorite style is typed error returns instead of thrown exceptions. In that world, you only need try/catches at the boundaries of your code and for application crashing exceptions. Unfortunately most codebases aren't written like that and I'm often working in inherited code instead of greenfield.

Great. The piano sounds better now (though for a "natural" piano a lot of other aspects like damper noises, resonant strings, etc. have to be considered). You could try to generally turn down the velocity a bit (especially relative to the "chant voice"), and you could even add a random velocity factor to each chord or note so that it sounds a bit more human-like. Switching to the next audio now works for me.
I'm curious how that would apply in this case Imagine a restaurant that sells french fries. They offer two kinds of fries, one with physically large fries (like steak fries) and the other with physically small fries (like shoestring fries). They call these "large" fries and "small" fries.

You can order a large quantity of fries or a small quantity of fries, giving 4 possible orders: large large fries, large small fries, small large fries, and small small fries.

If an order of large small fries asking for a large quantity of the shoestring fries or a small quantity of the steak fries?

I think I'd expect it to mean a large quantity of the shoestring fries.
This may be a hot take, but there is now no reason to ever use pandas for new data analysis codebases. Polars is better in every way that matters.

I'm asking because I'm a software engineer/founder, but I stepped back from my career due to burnout.

"Picasa could have had the same promising future as Sketchup."

Depends what you mean. if you mean should have been spun out - it was a day and age that Google was still too young and immature to do that sort of thing, so yeah, no idea what would have happened.

If you mean it would have won or stayed viable - I dunno. Personally - i doubt it. Desktop apps were dying, and things like photo features were being moved into the basic OS distribution. Maybe it would have survived long enough to be killed by Apple Photos, or some halfway-lightroom product Adobe would have launched if Picasa stayed popular, but I doubt it - i think it would have died before then. But the vast majority of photos aren't on desktop anymore, and it's hard to see how picasa would have survived, even with picasa web.

But right or wrong, I also think killing it was within the range of reasonable product decisions to make.

As for G+, I don't actually disagree with that view. Google, like lots of tech companies, had (and still has, though they are better than they used to be!) a lot of trouble understanding the social aspects of products and trust. They want things to win becuase they are technically good, or because they are cool, or ...

Even when Larry spent time pushing on trying to improve user trust, by being careful about what and how things were shut down, it was pretty clear they overall didn't get how humans work.

The bad news, though, is i think this is pretty common in tech companies - while some do in fact get it, i think they are pretty few and far between :(

I think you misunderstand Nussbaum's concept of capabilities. "Flourishing" includes things like the right to own private property, not free health care. Capabilities aren't positive rights in the socialist sense. In terms of health care, it means the ability to be healthy, which includes the ability to choose either junk food or snack food, and the ability to access doctors (but not necessarily the right to free treatment).

I'm having trouble parsing your comment.

The most-charitable formulation I can can come up with is something like:

"We know Musk already possesses a personal staff of unscrupulous geeks and likes to illegally stop payments. Therefore it is likely they were engaged in payment fraud here too, where the "enemy" Canadian government is hurt by stolen funds, and "enemy" car-competitors are hurt by the rebate pool being suddenly empty."

go and co

le and re

Isn't it relatively easy to sell anything "naturally occurring" as a supplement? I think there is very little regulation (of course if you want to claim it's a drug and presumably charge much more for it it's another matter).

Even synthetic research chemicals are generally legal as long as you add a "not for human consumption" label (and they aren't explicitly banned or analogous to other illegal/regulated drugs).
It's strangely intuitive, unlike English spelling. People going around getting it right all the time without even knowing it.

Not unique to English, either: Wikipedia has examples in Tagalog where the order is almost the same (apart from a clause inserted in the middle of the second sequence).

> The goal for anyone obese is to lose as much fat as sustainably possible.

Correct.

> For any given rate of weight loss, losing a higher proportion of body fat is always better.

That is in direct contradiction to your previous sentence. No, losing the higher absolute amount of body fat is better. While being sustainable healthy.

> I've been on fitness forums for well over a decade and have literally never seen a single case of this.

You may be on the wrong forums then. Most forums don't think all your days should be leg days.
If nobody is lasting longer than 5 years, you need to work somewhere else. 5 years might seem like a while if you’re just starting your career but it’s not long enough to have experience with the outcome of architectural decisions, natural staff or business partner turnover, or adjustment to greater market trends (e.g. if your startup only existed in a boom market, you’ve only done cost engineering and customer acquisition in easy mode).
Rule #1 for Microsoft product strategy: if you can't yourselves figure out the SKUs and how they bundle together, the odds are good that your customers will overpay. It's worked for almost 50 years and there's no evidence that it will stop working. Azure is killing it and will continue to eat the enterprise even as AWS starts/continues to struggle.

BAR resizing (which is all that Smart Access Memory means, as far as I can tell) is just done by the kernel writing some value to the right field in PCI configuration space, why would it require firmware support (and if so, why would CSM preclude that support)?
Being senior arguably involves more than technical skill on a one-dimensional scale. I'd say Linus Torvalds was no senior at that time although the technical feat was certainly impressive.
One solution I haven't seen mentioned is trifocals. Progressive lenses used to be sold against bifocals and trifocals by saying "no lines" but there are some advantages to the old school designs. In particular, progressive designs tend to end up with an hourglass-shaped field of view[^1] in which the horizontal field of view at mid-distance can be so narrow you can't see your whole monitor screen without pivoting your head. The mid-view area on trifocals is significantly wider than on progressives and I found it much more useful for medium distance work of computer monitor or car instrument panel. In addition, the area of distance vision is much wider on the traditional trifocal, which means you don't have to move your head as much or not at all to see out car side mirrors.

[1] It's been maybe a decade since I researched this - at the time I concluded that the hourglass FOV shape was a result of progressive lens designers not having enough surfaces to play with and was unavoidable if they wanted decent near and far areas, which tends to work well when your presbyopia isn't too bad yet. Maybe since then someone has introduced a different compromise in that space (maybe narrower close window trading for wider middle distance region?) but I'm not aware of it.
I doubt it. It's very commonly offered in the UK and while it's cheap and safe, based on what I've seen it's also not effective at all. Forget the same league, it's not even playing the same game as an epidural. An epidural is a drip of opioids right to your spine. Proper hardcore.

“gross incompetence at the c-suite level”
It's not redundant because regular python parameters without a / in the list can be called by name even if they don't have default values. The author may intend them to be positional only but some callers might call them by name and you might break them when you refactor the parameter names, positional only avoids that.
Some people dislike positional only parameters but they're already used in a number of stdlib functions written in c so it makes sense to be able to write replacement with the same semantics in pure python as well as being able to express signatures for the c function

The seller and law say you own the book but you don't own the content of the book. That is, you are free to read the book as many times as you like, you aren't free to start printing out and distributing copies of the book as "backup" for all your friends and family.

The laws around DVDs are the same. You have a right to access and view the contents of the DVD. You don't have a right to make copies of the dvd.
