The useful part is you can do anything you want with the other bits and have it still be a valid UUID.

The alternative is you don't have them and you rent protection from someone who does.

At this point you only have your own kingdom if you have a standing army with nuclear weapons, you are sovereign, everyone else rents, this is just physics, the details are social contracts.

GetElementId makes sure its a NCName and makes sure its unique regardless, you can view the source here: https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/blob/c4d7f7c6f2e2f34f07e64...

The incorrect api would be using GetXml and looking at the raw XmlElement and using select nodes or something vs using the GetIdElement on the SignedXML object itself, its not going to prevent you from looking at the xml document directly a

Microsoft's SignedXml implementation in the .Net framework fixed this 8 years ago so long as you are correctly using the GetIdElement which makes sure there are no duplicates. https://coding.abel.nu/2016/03/vu

Server side hit detection is nowhere near as complex as occlusion, you need to make sure you account for latency or you get people popping into existence after they round the corner. Here is one for CS:GO, server occlusion geometry must be

So the server must render the 3d world from each players perspective to do these tests? Sounds ridiculously expensive.

So yes they are both magnetic, thanks.

"Magnetism is the class of physical attributes that occur through a magnetic field, which allows objects to attract or repel each other." Aluminum is repelled by a strong magnetic field, hence the use of ECS, plastic is not. Alumi

So aluminum and copper are listed as not magnetic yet powerful magnets are used to separate them from non metallic materials in recycling? Seems like a semantic argument. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eddy_current_separ

No thats image preprocessing to lose information before compression. JPG would be smaller if color count was reduced as well. If color quantization using a specific algorithm was part of PNG you could say its lossy compression, its not, PNG

by SigmundA 2y ago
You can get a smaller uncompressed bitmap by reducing color count too reducing bits per pixel, that does not mean bmp is a lossy compression scheme. Color quantization will reduce the final size of the image in nearly all image formats jpg&

by SigmundA 2y ago
Thats not PNG being lossy, the image was preprocessed to lose information by reducing color count before being compressed with PNG.
232.
by SigmundA 2y ago
PNG is not lossy, your example uses a preprocessor to quantize colors before being compressed with PNG. PNG loss no information from the image being fed to it, the loss was done before creating a simpler image.

Turboprops are not jets, it is the wrong term. A turbine engine may be a jet engine or it may not in the case of a turboprop. Jet aircraft use jet propulsion not propeller propulsion. A jet gets significant thrust from exhaust gases, a turb

Full disk encryption or similarly transparent data encryption at the database allows you to continue to use the database as a full database. Decrypting on the "client" (app server) means you can't really use its native query

I just did the same in preview on my Mac (export TIFF uncompressed - 12mb -> export PNG) and got 5.4mb so 2.2:1 and on https://cloudconvert.com 4.6mb with default settings. PNG does have some tuning parameters that can effect

Well I believe the technical limitation is Electron uses v8 which uses a jit which is not allowed due to not being able to modify executable pages. This is a valid security decision IMO, but not everyone agrees including the EU.

I just recently upgraded my 6 year old iPad Pro to the new M4 version. I use this as my 3rd device, mostly reading and browsing before bed, but also for some other things less regularly. I agree its complete overkill, but I like it because
