Online geocoding service are always the worst way to go. You only use the online services if you don't have an alternative dataset. The osm datasets actually aren't that big, the entire PBF formatted dataset is <30GB. You can f

Network congestion is one of those areas where the multiple parallel TCP connections used in the HTTP1 demo can improve performance for you. It's just netting you a larger share of the limited network resources at the expense of others

Yeah. DK2 owner here. My DK2 only comes out to demo to friends these days. It's not so much the motion sickness for me though. It's just that the novelty wore off and it became a chore. Elite Dangerous with a DK2 was incredible fo

The altitude increase coincides with the batteries reaching 99% capacity. The decrease coincides with nighttime and the batteries draining. In other words it's another form of energy storage.

What's the bandwidth of the video and transmit rate of the antenna? How large is the video buffer? We haven't had to rely on a 1:1 record->transmit system for about 50years now. If the antenna has more bandwidth than required t

You miss out on branch prediction. There's a bit of a myth that branches are always bad because a branch misprediction is slower than a correctly predicted branch and therefore no branches are better. A bit of code that eliminates bran

Windows 3.1 removed real mode support thus breaking compatibility with Windows 2 and Windows 1 apps. What Microsoft did is replace various included applications completely with every upgrade. There's no compatibility. Things like notep

I have the Odroid-U3 which is similar enough. It's amazing running Android. The drivers are all there and it can do 1080p playback no worries. Netflix for Android runs perfectly. So does every emulator going from the N64 generation bac

That's such a bullshit thing to say. We're talking about someone who literally won't survive unless they change their behavior. He's unemployed, has no government benefits available to him and those around him aren'

What's the best way to deal with something like this as a friend of someone with something remarkably similar? I have a close friend who's always going to see specialists with some ailment or another. One of the things he has is l

Having no open source projects to show off = nothing special. Having projects to show off = something that makes you stand out. There's no way around this. I can understand why people haven't got open source projects to their name

That's historically true but TLS is now really common on both servers and clients. In fact most major email clients I've seen show a warning if the server only supports plain text. Thunderbird shows a large modal "WARNING! Se

the wind moves faster on that side than on the turbulent side. This creates lift like an airplane wing. There's no reason to complicate it like this. It's simply Newtons laws at work. You accelerate a mass of air in one directio

I just see it from the other point of view. I see it as being too early to say that he was wrong. The article seems way too harsh on someone who made a prediction over 50 years ago that has stood the test of time flawlessly. He was objectiv

Well i don't see US oil production ever exceeding 1970 levels despite a few minor upticks on an otherwise clearly downwards trending line. Until oil production exceeds that 1970's level you can't say he was wrong. I think the

He predicted that U.S. oil production would peak, probably in the early 1970s, and then decline. It would resemble a bell curve. If M. King Hubbert were alive today—he died in 1989—would he admit defeat? Probably not No shit he w

That's close but you actually want to change the size of your packet, not the size of the requested return data. // Essentially OpenSSLs bug is the following buffer = malloc(payload_claimed) // we aren't going
