That's, I think, a deliberate facet of Kapoor's art.

Steam bundles its own runtime for games (it can be configured to use system libs instead, but that's not the default). Games will often also ship with copies of additional libraries not in steam's runtime. I bet that the underlyin

How does shorting it reduce the heat it experiences? Short it through something that creates a load, like a coil?

This is by no means something I know much about, but I understood that disconnecting a panel causes it to heat up from sunlight to the point that it can reduce its useful lifespan.

It's not actually that easy to burn away excess power when you're operating at grid scale.

Could it be that children lacked the knowledge of how to determine whether or not the figurines worked, or believed they were not allowed to touch them? Neither interpretation seems plausible. Recall that children had just seen the naïve e

I was thinking this at first too, because if there's no reinforcement or punishment, then the instructions to sort the figurines based on whether or not they will activate the music box is ambiguous — should you sort them such that oth

It's not very clear from their docs, but it looks like tauri is mostly a way to launch a system WebView from rust and communicate with it via message passing. Doesn't really seem like a GUI toolkit for rust, since all the GUI stuf

Thanks for finding that — that does make sense then. Seems like the sort of thing that ought to be mentioned on the landing page though!

Once the clips are on their servers, editing is probably fine, as long as they're using some kind of edge compute for low latency. In fact that's great for people who don't want to buy a more powerful computer for video editi

Does this require you to upload your video assets to their servers over the internet? That seems extremely impractical for 4k or 8k footage. Even with gigabit upload speeds a clip could take several times it's playback duration to tran

A license isn't a contract that binds the licensee, it's a contract that only binds the rightsholder. Since you, the licensee, are not relinquishing any rights in the contract, there's no need for you to agree to anything. Th

There are other advantages. I occasionally find myself using syntax-quote for refactoring. Let’s say I have a test like this: (let [cases [{:in [1 2 3] :out [2 4 6]} ;; ... ]] (doseq [{:keys [in

The clojure reader supports the #= prefix before a form, which will cause the reader to read the following form, pass it to eval, and use the result as if it were part of the passed in data. (def #=(symbol "foo") :bar) Ge

It's afaict a necessary decision, since unison is designed around the possibility of having multiple versions of the same function referred to be the same name.
108.
by adrusi 5y ago
FWIW because of how unison works, you get a lot of the benefits of version control without using any proper version control. Probably for small, single dev projects version control would just be redundant. That's not to say this isn&#x

None of this represents a regression relative to traditional Linux package management, except that apparently the maintainance of some packages on flathub is not up to the standards of existing major distributions. I'm guessing that th

And more concretely, a language design rule of thumb in Zig is that if a function is called, there should be an explicit function call. Zig offers defer and errdefer as the closest substitute for RAII that makes all calls explicit.

It is literally equivalent to a rotation matrix: [cos π/2 -sin π/2] [x] = [0 -1] [x] = [0 - y] = [-y] [sin π/2 cos π/2] [y] [1 0] [y] [x + 0] [ x] Compare to: i (x + iy) = ix + i²y = -y + ix Fo

You actually have to understand calculus for that to actually prove it to you, but, you can show that it seems to work out numerically with a bit of programming knowledge, which I imagine is more common on Hacker News. I don't think ei

You can think of it as clang, but controlled by a lua engine instead of the CLI. It's not just macros, you have control over generation of build artifacts. By default you're running in JIT mode, but you can at any time bundle up s

Performance has improved somewhat, at least using the dynamic mode. I think largely through more effective caching. I use it even on my phone these days.
