It's mostly for Uber Eats. As long as you order 2-3 times per month it might pay back (depending on your location and where do you order from).

640k statement was absolute, this one is comparative. Cloud should have more compute and efficiency than local. I wouldn't be 100% sure, as I don't know what I might not be seeing, but still. Whether that comparative advantage wil

This is probably because the quality of a Photoshop or InDesign project is rather apparent. Not so with code, and hence a need to assign blame exists.

A nice summary, he would get quite a shock from seeing how advertisement business ended up. I wonder what addendum would he have to the oft-repeated claims of "we're genuinely helping people meet their needs", too.

Uber is ahead of you. You need to cancel two days prior, or something on that note (I don't remember the exact timing).

Sorry, but they set their signaling mechanisms so that that signal is worthless. How many people who don't cancel want to signal they are going to be a future customer, as opposed to it being an accident? How many people who do cancel

Also a common practice for free trials. Adobe does that if I'm not mistaken. Love seeing companies worth tens or hundreds of billions acting like they couldn't spare a cent from underhanded shit like that. Scrooge McDuck type of b

Likely the answer would be: yes, we should build it, and take appropriate care of the people being made redundant. These two are not mutually exclusive, it's just that no one wants to pay for it.

Some other time, I really thought that a 32 byte demo I saw is the limit of how small the binary can get and still look good. That other demo didn't even have sound. This is hell of a good work. A masterpiece to retire after. (or more

The angular diameter of detailed seeing is very small - something like 1-2 degrees from what I was reading (matches my experience). That's the only area where you can reasonably read, the rest is only good for making out rough shape. S

At which point it feels like some sort of high-level assembly-like language, which is simple enough to compile efficiently and stay crossplatform, with some primitives for calls, jumps, etc. could find a nice niche. Maybe this already exist

I see, thank you for your time and patience spent to explain this. So there's no elevation, no general escape, and this got patched because it could possibly be used as a set-up-use-later backdoor style thing (such as dropping a setuid

But the issue of root and accessing outside of the sandbox is orthogonal, no? Even if you're logged in as XYZ, accessing XYZ's contents outside of the sandbox is still a breach and a problem. Or does this issue require actual root

I think that's the case for all the "every <noun>". "Every human is a person", for example. This would make sense, to put it in programming terms - the verb applies to an element in an array of people, not the

Thanks. It was not evident from the example whether root inside of the sandbox is necessary - I assumed creating arbitrary symlinks doesn't require any particular capabilities, and there's nothing special about the locations. Thou

Blender also had a comparatively large amount of money backing these changes, if I remember correctly, which I expect GIMP does not. I suppose a lesson in that area would be required first. However, the others like Krita might be better pos

Yes, together with mass-energy equivalency it would form a coherent argument, and then also a correct one - but the thing is that if incomplete, it still might sound funky enough to you to research it if you care. I think it helps that it&#

I like how they say they don't vibe in this comment, and then that they don't read the code anymore in just the previous comment in their comment history.
