The car industry has fucked everyone over and noone is immune, regardless how big. If you're interested in how this happened, I wrote my understanding of it on another, related thread at https://news.ycombinator.com/ite

The memory contents have to go somewhere. They can't stay in RAM as RAM will be powered off. If there's sufficient free swap space they go there. If there isn't, the current swap and memory contents get compressed and it then

After setting up a swap partition of sufficient size, hibernate worked with no issues whatsoever on my very recent hardware and kubuntu. The main reason it's disabled by default on ubuntu is that the default partition setup isn't

This study is not particularly interesting as a measurement of vaccine effectiveness (because of the extremely low sample count of 12 patients). So don't read too much into the particular numbers. Instead, there's two useful and v

In my opinion the mathematical concepts and abstractions are not the issue with Haskell. The issue is that it's a pain to use in practice because of: 1. Really annoying to do any kind of i/o 2. Extremely poor interoperability with

I used JOE for a long time back in the day and I remember it fondly for plastering its documentation right onto the screen so you didn't have to look stuff up, as a beginner. This sounds embarrassing but I suspect others have had the s

The car industry got their demand planning wrong, so they lied to their vendors that they wouldn't need that inventory. They then turned around and went "hey actually screw that we want the inventory after all", making their

Every single fabless semiconductor designer failed to predict demand because their customers lied to them. The car industry pulled a really dick move last year, and then pulled an even more dick move in the opposite direction, and now every

I actually live in the EU and I don't feel the commission has screwed up on this. I love that we have a somewhat equitable distribution model across the union. The core issues have been with producers heavily overpromising supply on th

Freecad does this when editing sketches at least. Kicad also does it. It's great, but very confusing for beginners.

We have lots and lots of chip factories in the West. A very important one just lost thousands and thousands of wafers because the Texas power grid went tits up, and it set the companies using it back by months. There's foundries being

Linux certainly has project management, bug tracking, and lots of infrastructure. What it famously rejected were inadequate centralized systems that break the way kernel developers and maintainers actually work. Before the tools were there

I think you've just been lucky to not encounter it. It doesn't happen to everyone. It's not necessarily even very frequent. But it's much much more frequent than it should be. So consider yourself lucky that you've

I think it comes up whenever there's the opportunity because patents are legitimately bad. And I think it's the other way around - if prices were low and volumes were high lots of people would make cool marginal products with them

Given the extremely wide evidence basis from existing data (there's millions of worldwide users) I'd argue no more than has been, and that the current data is sufficient to show its lack of effectiveness without any additional eff

Engineering things for predictable failure is often necessary when the alternative is a worse, dangerous failure further down the line. The classical example of this is the fuse - it's a device designed to fail first in order to preven
