Planning your life around once or twice in a lifetime events like a pandemic seems pretty wasteful. That's not paying for 95%, that's paying for 99.99%

What do you think AMD would do if they decided to port their driver to a new language? Would they update their generator or would they copy and edit the existing header? They sure as shit didn't type out these header files by hand, so

It would have made sense to use XPath for CSS selectors, or at least make the CSS selectors a syntax compatible subset if you wanted to them piecewise in functionality like they currently have done.

You might want to port it to a new language, in which case having the hardware description and a generator tool is easier and better than converting the C headers. And yeah sure pragmatically it might not make much of a difference in this s

I think the key point from OP was paying closer attention the when they went to sleep. If you know you have to be up by X then be sure to go to bed at X-Y. I would imagine the struggle is winding down for bed early rather than waiting till

I wonder how many bugs C strings have been responsible for, all because storing a null byte at the end seems more efficient than storing a length up front.

Toyota literally just launched a hydrogen personal vehicle. https://www.toyota.com/mirai/fcv.html So to call it dead is not quite accurate. They're taking the same route as Tesla and building their own distributi

IBM is always an interesting company. They seem to get dragged kicking and screaming into the next paradigm shift every 10 years or so, but they do still seem to manage to actually _make_ the pivot and stay somewhat relevant. They're

I agree smaller economies could be a problem, but I'm not sure there's a better solution. A small economy is unlikely to have taxi services at all. Small economies are usually geographically smaller meaning taxis will have to co

I strongly disagree with running the government like a household budget. It seems like a nice simple reduction but they're very different things. Corporations don't run as household budgets, neither should governments. Two main di

I'd love to see Uber or a competitor embrace the "independent contractors" idea and let drivers and riders bid for service. I think it's possible to implement this in a user friendly fashion. Enter your destination and

That's the whole argument of comparative advantage though, even if China is better at everything its still in their best interest to trade because everyone comes out ahead if they specialize in what they're best at.

On the other hand free trade stops wars. If each party is specialized in a needed item that the other side no longer knows how to produce, its much harder to go to war. The fact that the US will always need steel helps ensure that they _wi

I wonder, if instead of trying to regulate these companies, it would be more effective for the government or some sort of support organization to award a grant to some free software developers to flood the market with actually free "ca

Throw them away or donate them for free. If they are allowed to sell them and profit from the sale then they have a perverse incentive to take more things. Its like those tiny towns in rural USA who are funded by bullshit traffic violations

Older versions of those can be picked up second hand for cheaper, or sometimes free if you repair somebody else's discarded device. Theres no market of second hand developer licenses.

Both chrome and Firefox support debugging their mobile android versions from their desktop versions. I'm sure safari offers the same for iOS.

That's bad, 100% bad. My TV does not need to be playing detective and monitoring every use of it. My car doesn't prevent me from exceeding the speed limit, not does it report me to authorities if I do.
