I guess you could use Firefox container tabs?

I haven't read TFA yet (edit: as I thought, it's very light in details), but I know it's a hassle to spring up gas distribution logistics where it's only a secondary product (oil wells). The question is: is this new meth

You need to diagnose something on your laptop that has stopped accepting input or with a blank screen. plug in your Android phone, enable USB tethering, ssh in. You are on holidays, your need to help someone (or yourself) with some server i

A lot of phones can be connected to an external display via USB-C. Better supported than MHL (how many incompatible standards was MHL? 4?). Samsung has "Dex", their android desktop interface. Linux phones can generally offer a ful

Oh wow, I was looking for your search engine a few months back, but couldn't recall the name, and my searching turned up nothing, even here on HN somehow. I just came across the open-sourcing blog post. Thank you for doing this. Search

To spell it out clearer, though you were pointed this multiple times: OpenStreetMap is a database, not a website. Its purpose is to reference stuff that you can see in the street, not to provide a sleek map website. OpenStreetMap provides m

I had no idea. I'd be okay with that if the firmware was open source, but I can dream. On the other hand, if something bad happens (virus, remote bricking, disabling some functionality that was in the contract in un update), you can pr

From my experience about 7 years ago, it was 10-100x faster under Linux (minutes compared to seconds), even though the Windows machine was way more powerful. Maybe file accesses are slowed down by something like an antivirus?

I haven't performed a single windows install since 2013ish (was it 8.0 beta?), but I'm saying this based on how often I see it enabled. Companies do it, and probably manufacturers too. I'm less sure about the install media, t

Yes. I like idling in Q/A channels (mostly IRC or Matrix) to handle support requests or answer questions from time to time. Even if I'm not a core dev or even a seasoned user, I can often help debug, point to the documentation, or

That's only for small angles though (stems from Taylor's expansion). With other units, you have a conversion factor, but it remains true enough at small angles.

It's effectively the same, but cos, sin and others are defined with radians as arguments. Taylor's series expansions are changed, otherwise. So is Euler's formula.

I long wondered about this... How does card reading work? Are regular smartcard readers compatible? Does the card have NFC for phones? Can you use them under Linux/mac? Do regular browsers work with it? (FIDO/webauthn). Or is the

I think windows encrypts more and more by default. TPMs are not unlocked if they can't validate the boot chain (live cd), so you'd need the disk password (and full user password).

I understand that people often refer to Julius Caesar as "Caesar", but to me at least, it mainly refers to the "title" (though that remains a surname, as succession was hereditary, mostly through adoption). History is no

Well, unix timestamps are still tied to UTC, which has leap seconds for some reason... I would prefer if we had a few seconds of an offset with Zulu "GMT" Time (pardon the double acronym).

by MayeulC 4y ago
Ooh, that's interesting. Did you use decimal time as well?

by MayeulC 4y ago
Julius and Augustus you mean, both were Caesars (Augustus, AKA Octavian, was adopted).

Consider SQLite as a conterpoint before using superlatives. There are others. Edit: well, of course, a game bug, even if game-breaking, isn't safety critical. Yo have to plan what to spend time on.

You can blame CUDA quite a bit for that. Proprietary, you need to sort out which driver you need, plus an nvidia GPU... I tried compiling pytorch with vulkan support, but there are a few LDFLAGS that are wrong. I'll try to solve that s

Well, you can always install Mycroft on a Pi, or on your computer. Almond is also interesting as a voice assistant, though I think it doesn't perform speech recognition itself.

I thought about the last part before. It just sounds like we need more dragonflies (they check all the boxes).

Not sure where the pasta methaphor came from, but I generally like the author's style, and the performance gains are intriguing. I'd be curious what the actual impact is on real-world Vulkan/zink test-cases?

Each TGV seats 500-700 people, about 100 to 500 times better than you RR average model 3. And goes a lot faster. I'd be curious to know the M3's mileage above 300 kph. I thought regenerative braking was a strong point of trains? T

Agreed. I don't remember how it is in Gare de Lyon, but platforms are usually announced at the last minute for TGV (not TER). It may have something to do with Vigipirate, the counter-terrorism operation? Gare Part-Dieu in Lyon is one o

I haven't computed it, but you need to take into account the energy it takes to mine a block and the number of transactions in that block. The transaction fee is irrelevant, as the fees being paid were mined in the past and already &qu

I understand your point, though I have never done synthesis at that scale. Still, with yosys, Verilator and other tools, you can have some form of CI. Using multiple simulators can reduce the number of bugs, and no one in their right mind w

You can get pretty far with yosys, icarus verilog, various spice simulators and gtkwave, but I agree. At least, interchange formats are pretty well specified (netlists, HDL, waveforms...), maybe except for the proprietary "Open Access&
