You state that a Feistel network has the property that each input value is mapped to a different output value, but how do you ensure that there isn't some cycle whose length is shorter than that of the size of the set of possible input

Okay, I have shared at least one of those problems (the backup camera taking over, although I think I can just close out of it on my VW). I also get a weird intermittent problem where my phone will freak out and my car will stop recognizing

What exactly do you mean by "the whole dance"? I've found Android Auto to be pretty simple to use. There's just one short USB cord I plug in right next to my shifter and I'm done. Everything comes up automatically.

Satellite is nice, but it's not a solution for every use case. Specifically, it's not great for anything that requires low latency (like gaming).

That's the kind of thing that should be detected by a linter and stop code submission though, not necessarily stop it from even compiling. What if you just want to comment something out quickly? I don't program in Go, but it seems

Like everyone else here, I don't think this is a very good example. Even if it were, other languages can do a better job of accomplishing the same goal. For example in Python: def circumference(r: float, *args, pi=3.14) -> flo

I sometimes get the feeling that this is the only game HN plays. When people talk about not being able to switch away from Windows due to games, it seems like someone always responds, "Well Kerbal Space Program runs on Linux and that&#

"Blew" is the preterit form of blow, so in this case wouldn't it be based off of the past participle "blown" and be whistleblown?

They're creating new pieces all the time, plus the molds have a limited lifespan in order to maintain those high tolerances.

There's an option to do this in many third party Android ROMs, which I personally take advantage of. I don't think it's really "terrible ux"; it hasn't been that hard to adjust to.

That did it for me, thanks. Seriously, who overrides default scrolling behavior?

I think this paragraph is pretty telling: > “One way to aid Congress in understanding more of the climate issue than what is produced by biased ‘official’ panels of the climate establishment is to organize and fund credible ‘red teams’ t

A cult following for the God-given operating system. Huh. Sounds a bit sacrilegious.

It's still more secure than not using a password manager. And I've found that whenever I'm in a situation where I can't use lastpass for whatever reason, I just fall back to using a password I've used many times bef

I would love to switch to a different password manager, but nothing else I've tried has quite managed to nail the usability aspect. Specifically, Lastpass's app fill functionality on Android is a huge benefit that I haven't s

Hmm, the impression I got from the training video I watched was that it would be unlikely for Google to approve your outside project most of the time. But maybe it was just the way the specific presenter worded it.

Wow, that's really nice. At Google, they basically told us, "There's the standard IP rule where you own anything that you work on in your own time that doesn't compete with our business... Of course we pretty much do eve

For whatever reason, I was expecting something about gliders from Conway's Game of Life. But this was much more interesting! Thanks for sharing.

Geez, color me double-wrong. Yes, that should be plenty. I thought was a VPN-esque solution that required shuffling all traffic through the VPS instance, but yes you're right, it's basically just a custom DNS server. In which case

Dang, you're right, I forgot about that. So not so suitable, unfortunately. Seems like root + a local hosts adblocker is still the best solution for Android, or a local VPN for iOS (do they have those on Android? never checked).

As a lot of other people online are pointing out, this is pretty much the exact same thing people said when Bulldozer came out, but it never materialized. AMD has always won in terms of core count, and people have been saying for years that

You're correct that we can only make out fine details in a narrow field of view, but that doesn't mean there isn't value to having more in our peripheral vision. Having extra horizontal width specifically is nice, because of
