At least in lldb (the LLVM equivalent of GCC's gdb however gdb should also do this), types should be shown as their declared type rather than the fully expanded resolved type. At least as long as you are running with debug information

In the source code? That's a skill issue not an IDE issue. If you have ugly types, you fix that in source code with `using` declarations.

Strictly speaking: 1. This is true for did:web but less true for did:plc identities. 2. For did:plc identities to survive a full "bluesky PBC" death, you'd need to to transfer master authority for your PLC identity to a set o

That's not actually true. If you host your data yourself with a PDS then everything continues to work. And your data is all stored in a big merkle tree so you can actually just back it up from the network and if bluesky shits itself yo

Yep. Hence the appeal of turning the intersection into a roundabout and pulling the stoplights 3-5 cars from the roundabout and only stopping traffic when pedestrians are present (i.e. puffin and pelican crossing style). It gives cars enoug

Ah yep. I'm mistaken there. I had read somewhere at one point that they were the second largest contributor to Chromium and made assumptions I shouldn't have. My apologies.

Yeah it's definitely marketing and users who win definitely aren't guaranteed to have been paying users anyways however lifetime proton plans historically have auctioned for tens of thousands of dollars and presumably whoever ends

by CuriousCosmic 2y ago
Oh 100%. It's not a for sure thing but at the same time I know those plans also historically have been auctioned for a lot of money and as a result the people who end up with them tend to use them quite extensively. And their cost is p

With soemthing like Neuro-sama I wouldn't doubt that Vedal is doing a lot of liftwork behind the scenes to keep sufficient context available to Neuro-sama's LLM.

Roundabouts aren't perfect but they greatly reduce the speed of traffic at the crossing point (while increasing the overall throughput of the intersection). Without looking up statistics (and I'd love to be proven wrong here), I&#

To be pedantic they are giving away $150k of their own cash but they also provided 10 lifetime accounts which are visionary accounts that you never have to pay for. Visionary accounts cost ~30 euro/month (assuming yearly subscription).

Google has a habit of intentionally delivering degraded versions of their services to not Chromium based browsers, particularly non-Chrome versions of their browsers (determined by User Agent). There's a pretty famous example of Google

It's not too terribly unreasonable. It's largely the Linux Foundation trying to wrest control over chromium from Google before the FTC antitrusts them or before Google does more manipulative market controlling BS. In more polite t

The prevalence of being intersex/having a disorder of sex development is just as high as the prevalence of being trans. Both of them sit at around 1-2% of the population. That number may be surprising but in the majority of cases these

Just because a street is one way does not mean it is so narrow that only one vehicle can fit through. Streets may be one way because it discourages unnecessary automotive traffic and it allows the rest of the space to be dedicated to bicycl

I'm not sure if that's necessarily a fair assessment as Ford's laid out plan to get from the current 40% loss to 8% profit is pretty reasonable. Of that 40 percentage points, 20 of them are directly attributable to economies

You are kind of missing the point. You can have a small rural town where the people in the town generally all live in/around the town but between that town and the next town over might be 1-2 hours. In that type of small town you still

So that's a fun one. C# the language people know first released in y2k and the 1.0 release was 2002. So it definitely is old enough to fit and it certainly has it's warts from age that show up in long lived projects.
