You could mix concrete with other materiais too. I worked as a lab assistant in a engineering lab for some time. Putting styrofoam into the mix would result in lighter concrete within acceptable levels of resistance (for low level buildings

Not that very slow for web applications. Maybe for real time or time-sensitive applications. For most day to day web apps GC pauses are mostly unnoticeable, unless you are doing something very wrong

Thing is, that is not just the individual, the world lost the trust in the american vote. Trump was elected twice, it is easy to imagine that another megalomaniac might be elected next. In a democratic system, the ruler is a reflection of t

Even 3rd world have those nowadays, unless you talking the more troubled of countries. TBH "3rd world" as a concept is quite outdated. I'm a bit skeptical on how "futuristic" the cities are. There's a lot of mo

The date command is not wrong, it works on GNU date, if you are in MacOS try running gdate instead (if it is installed): gdate -u -d @1775060800 To install gdate and GNU coreutils: brew install coreutils The date command stil

50GB sounds like nothing, but I believe you in the quality. Most big bucks paid databases need to be high quality though, otherwise they would fail as products

I'm not saying that axios is unmaintained, I'm saying that if you want something like axios from the standard lib, fetch is the closest thing you get to official

by augusto-moura 7mo ago
Hm, I don't think axios would do much better here. `fetch` is the official replacement for axios. If both are flawed that's another topic

by augusto-moura 7mo ago
It doesn't have a need _now_. Axios is more than 10 years old now, and even before axios other libraries did the same utility of making requests easier

Renaming things to better names happens all the time, selectively removing something is much worse. Especially for a reference book like Gray's Anatomy

Hm, I wonder if this will be a compiler flag too, probably yes, since some projects would prefer to init all variables by hand anyway.

I believe neovim started as a fork specifically to implement features like LSP support and package management, VIM eventually also caught up. But i don't believe anything is out of the table, or against Vim tradition. Which features do

I believe the problem is not doing this, but the text in the policy is misleading, since users would believe their data would never be shared with anyone outside of the company itself _unconditionally_, which is not true (if only by technic

Had problems with faulty keyboards in the past too, never to be sure which keys were I pressed I had to type the password in a text file (much more insecure) and then paste it on the prompt. Of course this was never done in front of anyone,

Language and technology are normal, but we are talking about a metered code editor, nobody have asked me to "use X hours of IntellijIDEA" in the past, or "use git enough or be fired". Tools are never required to be used

What I get a bit annoyed is companies forcing AI tools, getting usage metrics and actively hunting the engineers that don't use the tool "enough", I've never seen anything like it for a technically optional tool. Even in

My greatest curse, and greatest bless, is that I have really good memory. I could never re-experience this game the same way I experienced it first. It is a shame really, since games like this are not very common. If you want to experience

Not just shortage, any improvements to LLMs/electricity/servers memory footprint is becoming much more valuable as the time goes. If we can get 10% faster, you can easily get a lead in the LLM race. The incentives to transparently

In the current laws you mean, dictatorships usually start by throwing current laws out of the window. Not that I believe Trump would do that, but it is not unheard of in other parts of the world

Time of delivery would be the biggest factor. Today we can send multiple quick messages to anyone, at that time people had to batch big discussions in a long articulated text, since it would take days to it arrive. I guess the closest to th

The laptop can also supply more power to the chip and might have better integrated data lanes. Throughput to cache might be faster too if the access to disk and RAM are faster, they could try a more aggressive CPU scaling governo, since the

This comparinson might not be fair, since we are talking about an iPhone and a Macbook. We need to wait for Neo's benchmarks. A lot of things can change from the phone factor to the laptop factor, from power supply, to thermals, to ded

Hard to know relative performance before we get benchmarks. Aside from that anything that runs on M1 should run on this in the same way. In fact, the processor on Neo should support slightly more modern software since it implements ARMv9 [1

You don't need V8 for running JS for scripting, you have quickjs[1] or mquickjs[2] for example. You might have problems importing npm packages, but as we can see from lua plugins you don't even need support for package managers. P
