I believe this. I've been very heavily into games before after being very heavily into watching TV shows and movies. I would always try to talk to my gaming friends about movies and shows and they would all basically say the same thing

This is going in the complete opposite direction than what's needed. You definately don't want a single ISP especially if it's run by the government. You need more ISPs. A lot more. But for that to happen you need to make

I all for the free market at the ISP level if and only if the last mile is run by neutral third party with equal access to all ISPs. As for corporate control is so acceptable and government control isn't is because the corps control th

As a C/C++ developer that doesn't surprise me at all. I looked at both Go and Rust and I'd go with Rust if given a choice between the two.

If you are writing normal code then yes. But there are always exceptions. One is trying to learn how your current target architecture actually works. This is not production code. It's a "where in memory did the compiler decide

I may have misread your original post but your hostility isn't helping to clarify things. Instead of replying back "I was talking about the SSD cache" you replay back with "Well, it could hardly be below, could it. Was

One benefit of spreading out reads is detecting bad sectors on the drives that were normally not going to see much reads. Then the good data can be copied from the other mirror.

Back when I still ran Linux on my personal servers I noticed this. I was adding TRIM support to the md drivers before the maintainers finally got around to it. That's when I noticed the balancing code tended to favour one disk. I add

To me a counter offer is basically saying "we got away paying you less than what you're worth to us and you finally called our bluff". That's why I'll never accept a counter offer.
