Rust doesn't have any significant runtime startup cost, but it certainly is an issue for Java (and presumably Go as well).

SSDs and extra RAM are the two best upgrades to improve how fast and responsive everything feels.

Another general rule is that milky sap typically is poisonous, and you should definitely avoid fruit that has milky sap. And of course, if it tastes bad, that's probably a good sign that it might not be edible either.

To be fair, touching a stinging nettle is standard fare of childhood, and isn't really bad for you other than the pain. If you spend lots of time out and about in green spaces in certain parts of Europe, getting stung by some nettles w

Seems the only addon I use that isn't compatible is "Disable Ctrl-Q Shortcut". It's an addon I really don't want to get rid of, there have been many cases in the past where I've accidentally pressed ctrl+q inst

As far as I know, Apple has never used Linux for anything in any capacity. OSX's kernel is XNU, and it's a hybrid of BSD code and Mach.

I have had problems in back pain, and it's always been triggered by the back being in a bad position for an extended amount of time. Once the pain starts, it makes the muscles tense up, which only makes the pain worse.. It can be hard

Even if we stop global warming, what do we do about the carbon dioxide dissolved in the oceans making them more acidic than they should be?

Right, it only becomes significantly harder when you care about getting more energy out than you're putting in.

int will be smaller than double on x86_64 (edit: x86 too, and most other platforms), but since in both structs int comes after the double, that doesn't matter. 400 is a multiple of 8, so it doesn't matter if it's before or af

I think what baq is saying is that IP addresses are torsors http://math.ucr.edu/home/baez/torsors.html . It makes sense to give them a type where you can't add two IP addresses to each other (but you can stil

Right, then as the carbon dioxide pressure builds, it'll reach equilibrium sooner, so not as much will end up out of solution.

This doesn't help at all, unless you take steps to keep the bottle from uncrushing as carbon dioxide inevitably comes out of solution. What does help is keeping your drink refrigerated, because gases dissolve better in cold water than

The mut keyword on variable bindings doesn't influence uniqueness at all, though. You're probably thinking about the `&mut` references vs the `&` references.

A fun experiment to try is using your freezer to supercool water inside a plastic bottle, and then making it suddenly freeze by smacking the bottle.

Sorry, yes, you're right. Then splitting the water would definitely be energy negative (although still desired, to produce something the colonists can breathe).

As far as I can tell, combustion of methane seems to produce significantly more energy (around twice as much) as burning hydrogen, for the same amount of oxygen. Note that burning carbohydrates also produces carbon dioxide in addition to wa

by FreeFull 10y ago
I have looked it up, and it seems the combustion of methane produces more energy than the combustion of hydrogen. Splitting water into hydrogen and oxygen won't be 100% efficient though, and neither will be turning heat into useful ene

There should be an option to flip the image somewhere though, to be the right way around.

One example would be multiplying large matrices together. A common algorithm used is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strassen_algorithm with a big-O complexity of around O(n^2.8074). https://en.wikipedia.org&#

This is the unfortunate effect of burning tons of coal every day. The industrial revolution had quite a toll, although we wouldn't be where we are today otherwise.

by FreeFull 10y ago
It can also be the case that an algorithm with a worse big-O complexity might actually be better because all your inputs are small and the constant multiplier is lower than the more complicated, better big-O algorithm

In my personal experience TOML works really well. It's a little reminiscent of .ini files, but definitely is better.

To be more accurate, they didn't announce an alternative to Mercurial, but rather new Mercurial server software.
