That’s misleading. While you can have multiple lines, you are not allowed to have multiple statements. Nobody wants to write code chained together with ternaries and and-operators. When someone says multi-line lambdas, what people actually

Air pumps have drawbacks outside of efficiency that are also worth considering. Particularly noise and heat locality. Two properties that combined are not very cosy.

Except in Safari, where it is now in the bottom left corner, after the move of url bar to the bottom of the screen. Though there you can also swipe whole screen left to go back.

Automatic generics is how c++ templates behave. It is universally agreed upon to be absolutely horrible, now being remedied with what they call Concepts to constrain the generic signatures at least a little. The issue is that when you have

That’s assuming these individuals aim to make profit for their entity. The risk raised above was corruption, with tax paid development cost going to their uncles company, with a big fat kickback under the table.

Sounds a bit like proving there are no cycles in the 3n+1 equation. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collatz_conjecture . Veritasium has a good video about it.

How big is this code base and how advanced are the features? With only 3 juniors behind the wheel is it really that big? Was it always this small or is this the leftover maintenance team? Is there documentation, requirements or user stories

Security could actually be a way to sell the need for cleanup. Hire a team of independent auditors. If the code is in such a bad state as you claim, i guarantee they will find at least a dozen of XSS and XSRF issues, very likely some SQL in

That option actually works great for resurrecting the speech in a movie, but makes all the music utterly flat and boring. With this option on you might as well throw out your expensive speaker setup and use the built in TV speaker. If only

Yes, on Netflix you can choose. Choosing the stereo mix does offer a significant improvement on hearing dialogue. Regrettably, it has no idea of sensible default or even choice of default, so it always goes to 5.1 even if your setup doesn&#

Did you find genrule? It’s a generic escape hatch rule that can be used to just run any program. Of course it still needs the input and output dependencies declared and you are responsible for ensuring it is hermetic.

In one sentence: Everybody already knows how to use SSH, only the infra department knows how to use kubectl. Don’t underestimate how much pushback and struggle even such a small tool addition can add to developers with already too many othe

That's looking at history through rosy glasses. Now edit the contents of a transitively included header file, run make and feel unhappy for the rest of the day while debugging why your executable did not get rebuilt. Every environment

Good example of clown being educational is ElectroBoom. He constantly keeps "accidentally" electrocuting himself and goofing around. The videos have very crisp editing and baity thumbnails. At the same time a lot of the content is

Does this apply to the phone or only the transformer? Last iphone i unboxed came with a charger that has a usb-c outlet and a usb-c to lightning cable. Even if i would be more than happy to hear that the phone requires it as well. The trans

Its not so much about suddenly starting to decode something. It’s more when your stream for some reason gets misaligned or corrupted and whatever is still streamed is happily consumed with no possible way to detect the error. Common reason

I don’t think many give much thought to what it really means. They just use the term because it sounds cool, either to themselves or to their superiors. Same as with Machine learning.

It is intuitively a bit hard to believe, but bisecting in parallel is actually not much faster than serial. In my experience you just save the final one or two steps in the bisection - regardless of how long the range is! Imagine bisecting

Describe works it’s way backwards to find a tag matching the search pattern. If you are checked out on origin/master and the tags come from the same centralized origin, then you will have a predictable global order. It’s basically the

Dns being down means everything is down. Everybody is running ubuntu, including the Azure managed Kubernetes. Whether the problem source is by canonical or not is irrelevant. Azure is still down.

For those not familiar with ownership concepts, it does apply to many things beyond just memory management. Most obvious example of this is file handles. In python you have to close() them or scope within a context manager to auto close whe
