But the comments are not the same? bawolff says it wouldn't be a problem to just link the curl docs. Cogito says it would, since users would just ask Daniel for help, thinking xCurl was the same as curl, despite them having different i

They are indeed not normally distributed, but did you mean that they are not uniformly distributed?

Noon and midnight are especially difficult for people used to the 24 hour system. Noon is neither ante nor post meridiem. And midnight is both.

Those are really nice pictures. Even more so because those were probably taken during much longer and slower runs. But even there, they show incredible form.

I was a coach once. There are two mistakes where most people can benefit a lot if they fix them. They are somewhat connected. 1) Foot strike to far in the front as in [1] and [2]. This mostly happens because people want to run fast, and the

The above translation is common, but I always thought it was not ideal. The much more common use in french for "perdre" is not "to waste", but "to lose", as in "The time you lost ...". I think this ca

I do this, exactly for the mentioned case. It's even easier than switching profiles, and you can select the container on a per tab basis.

What domestic device are you using that consumes more than 2.3kW? My vacuum cleaner with 900W is the most power hungry one I can think of. That is a pretty wide margin.

You need to take Type-J from my cold dead hands. The image shows a quite important safety feature (and misses one): The socket is recessed into the wall, and only the frontmost part of the plug is conducting. That means that while you are p

Rails does this with Turbo Frames [1]. When clicking a link that is contained in a <turbo-frame> element, the frame is automatically replaced if the response contains a frame with the same ID. 1: https://turbo.hotwired.dev&

Money is only part of the equation. It's pretty wasteful to have to toss a computer because one component failed, when that specific component would be replaceable in other brands.

You are very correct about the maintenance. The fourth power law [1] states that trucks are about 10'000 times as destructive as cars, and cars in turn are 160'000 times(!) as distructive as bicycles. [1] https://en.wik

Note that the second link is a Raspberry Pi 2, not a Pi 4. Digikey lists it when searching for "Raspberry Pi 4" because it has 4 cores.

The thing I like about my standing desk is that I am unable to stay in the same position for more than 10 minutes. I always shift my weight, move my arms, walk a few steps to the left or right. I am forced to have breaks much more often tha

It‘s more likely about 2.6%, since elite riders would ride 40k in about 45‘ in reality (Tour de France riders have an average speed of up to 54kph during time trials).

In the parts of Europe I lived in (France, Switzerland, Sweden) there is one additional important thing: there is usually at most one parking space per apartment. This makes everything already a lot denser.

It depends on the numbers. But you don't have to borrow from the next digit the whole time and keep track of that.

The complements are also really useful for subtracting numbers. Not only in the binary system, but also in the decimal system. They allow you to subtract by adding numbers. Let's say you need to calculate 8467 -4583 The t

Skyboxes are used in 3D games. They are usually made of images plastered to the inside of a cube that is larger than the game area, with the player at the center. It makes the game area appear larger than it really is, because clouds, mount
