I suggest you look at other countries' electoral organisations and their processes, and how they are used to prevent gerrymandering.

Perhaps stopping before 1933 would be preferable?

How do you tell the difference between a string and a number then (also, what precision is the number, is it a float or an int etc.)?
274.
by aragilar 2y ago
It might mean multiple instances of the same code (which would explain why there might be commonalities)?

Some suggestions: * Drop the electoral collage * Proportional and/or preferential voting * Term limits/retirement ages * An independent electoral organisation with real teeth to prevent gerrymandering (and verify the election)

You can split it off and have your Python code be an API you call, but now you have at least two languages involved (Python+Elixir, plus JS somewhere, plus the possible mix of C/C++/Fortran/Rust(maybe?)). Given Ruby on Rails

Fortran? R? C? C++? Even Java may occasionally make a good showing here (depending on what you are doing). Having seen... things... unless it's written by people with the right skillset (and with funding and the right environment), tha

But does Elixir come with a whole scientific computing ecosystem?

I don't see how this improves things vs the other mechanisms that have been used to push HTTPS (e.g. various browser settings/extensions/etc. to do HTTPS by default, HSTS and HSTS Preloading, weighting via search engines). Al

Installing `podman-docker` will do the aliasing for you.

See my comment above for the numbers ( https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43127004 ), but the free limits haven't changed in magnitude, rather they've reduced how bursty the requests can be (which is somewhat inte

Caching is called out on https://docs.docker.com/docker-hub/usage/manage/ . My feeling is the way the naming scheme was defined (and subsequent issues around modifying the default registry), docker wanted to t

Oh, so that's where the bad AI generated content for AOM came from!

There's native code like SQLite which assuming a sensible file system and C compiler is quite portable, and then there's native code which cares about exact compiler versions, driver version, and the exact model of your CPU, GPU a

That's a pytorch issue. The solution is, as always, build from source. You will understand how the system is assembled, then you can build a minimal version meeting your specific needs (which, given wheels are a well-defined thing, you

That problem is very much not pip (pip is only the installer), the issue is: * We have a conflict between being easy to use (people don't need to work out which version of cuda/which gpu settings/libraries/etc. to use) v

It's worth noting that uv does not use pip, and it is entirely possible (as noted by uv's existence) to write a new installer that uses PyPI. The conflicts between pip, conda, and any other installers is all about one (or more)

conda (the package) is open source, it's the installer from Anaconda Corp (nee ContinuumIO) and their package index that are a problem. If you use the installer from https://conda-forge.org/download/ , you get the

My feeling sadly is because uv is the new thing, it hasn't had to handle anything but the common cases. This kinda gets a mention in the article, but is very much glossed over. There are still some sharp edges, and assumptions which ar

That doesn't line with https://rust-for-linux.com/rust-kernel-policy#who-is-respons... (which may be a recent change?)

For now. Won't work for GTK at the next major release.

The alternative is definitely satire.
