So much bad info in this thread. Almost all new construction already uses forced air heat pump systems for energy cost reasons. Supplemental gas (or electric) heat is only turned on by the unit when it's too cold for the heat pump to f

The point is that exa is a tool for listing files in a more human readable way. In what situation would you ever need to manually read (with your eyes) a list of 70k files? For this use case you should just use ls.

What you are looking for are generally sold as "large format displays". Basically tvs for commercial purposes that do not have any of that crap. Most projector manufacturers, even the consumer ones, have also been good about avoid

In the context of component based development, react etc., I believe what you describe is actually very beneficial. Think about a case where instead of doing something <button class="btn btn-primary"> you write an atomic com

I'm curious what the limits of this are. Say I create a business that receives $2000/m in contracting revenue instead of personal 1099 income. What if this business then acquires a property with a $2000/m mortgage and in turn

Almost the exact same situation for me except it was the E61. I remember playing DOOM on it for the first time and being quite impressed.

Is that really a problem though? Most people would just add their friends via username and bypass the whole user discovery process. Discord has demonstrated that this works perfectly fine, even with anonymous accounts not tied to emails.

Exactly. I have found the phone number requirement idiotic from day one. I recognize the decision was made as a trade off between usability and security (enabling discovering friends via phone etc), but they seem unwilling to admit that thi

Retail PC sales are only a small portion of the x86 market. The vast majority of corporate PCs will continue to use x86 in the foreseeable future for compatibility reasons. On the datacenter / cloud side providers are trying to make in

I think the robustness of the JVM ecosystem makes this less of a concern. It should be of relativity little cost to switch back to HotSpot if Oracle acts up.

Sure, you'll survive without lasting damage, but thinking such a fast itself won't impact your brain chemistry seems a bit much.

This brings to mind a question: would it be possible to run simply run multiple instances of SQLite on independent hosts that are backed by single shared filesystem, such as AWS's EBS? Of course they'd be blocked on writes but it

This is absolutely the case. IMO the main benefit provided by containerization is reproducibility. Scaling and other positives are just a product of this.

Is this not the classic problem with all censorship? Of course the majority (and I) would agree that the language used is not productive, but the question of whether something should be allowed, despite its "goodness" (or lack the

Absolutely. Here's the thing though, in this hellscape you might as well take advantage, and if these units of work can be generated like so, then its quite easy to become a "top performer" by adjusting your commit habits.

One thing you may be missing is that a lot of the work usability over the past decade was not with Java itself, but rather other JVM languages. As far as performance there is no doubt that the modern JVM is quite fast. Vert.x benchmarks are

I thought it was more to do with Qualcomm's SOCs having integrated radios for the atypical US bands, something they'd have to add on otherwise?
