1.2mega-kilo-meter? 1.2 million kilo-meter? What about the proper unit: 1.2Gm (1.2 giga-meter).

Agreed. How can we offer a solution that is as low or lower friction and does the right thing instead of security theater. At least we could consider this part of a defense in depth. We; humans; always reach for instant gratification. The p

Anything to avoid using the proper units, you wouldn't want the Americans audience to be enlightened wouldn't you.

7mths? What unit is that. Did they mean 7μs resolution? How is that special? I see youtubers doing nanoseconds. edit: here is the important information in this article. > Scorpius is a new accelerator project planned for the Nevada Natio

It seems like that in every country. If you think about it, if you are rich, it doesn't really make sense to want other people to know about compounding. They might not signup for this insurance, or credit card, or spend the money onto

Yeah but you see, this requires to be deployed along side the application somehow with the help of the ops team. While changing the command line is under control of the application developer.

I do not, sorry. You can read the datasheet of the chip learn everything about it. You can then search online for some implementation of firmware uploader/programmer like "avrdude". Those chips are very simple, all controlled

When I worked at Google; 10y ago!; I used the internal googler feedback form to open an issue for this bug. No replies. Every year I fill up the feedback form on Google map to complain about this bug. Some years, I even did it twice. For go

I have a bag of attiny13a that cost me $0.20 per chip. It is fully self contained. Just add a very small capacitor, give it from 2.8V to 5V. And then you program it the way you want. You can even program and debug it via a single pin if yo

Yep it was great. I had one client per device. Could talk to everybody. I had a consistent UX. Sure sharing pictures and videos wasn't easy then. But also the pay to use features and dark patterns weren't an issue either.

I don't think anybody ever sold nixos that good to me before. I might try it again. Last time I really did not like that any minute config change would take 15s to apply. But the biggest issue for me, is that right now I have a good en

So what you are saying, is that it is all designed to be impossible to fix without special equipment and exquisite motor skills?

I think people are often both suspicious and impressed at the same time. Suspicious that you might be acting overconfident, a common issue in software. Impressed that you know so much. I am your cadet, and I have a similar experience. I hav

This looks cool. I am a bit off topic here. But my only fear is this entices some people to make it the default in terminals over time. Like all moderne UIs now have animations, ranging from very slow to barely fast enough for my personal p

I have had to debug enough fires because of stupid unit confusion that I now make the point of being extremely pedantic with the use of the right unit.

Those ideas where already present in C/C++ decades prior. BSS program area. And passing struct by value vs pointer.

Yes experienced programmers won't make the obvious mistake... until they do because the distance from the source of the bug to it's manifestation is too great to notice until it fails in production.

It's the bitrate we used to have before they made it a premium plus all star plus+ feature and downgraded the rest. Netflix did the same. In fact they even silently downgraded us from 4k HDR surround sound during a software update. And

It happens all the time sadly. It's not because people intentionally write this way. A function takes a parameter (a Go slice for example) and calls another function and so one. Deep down a function copies the pointer to the slice (via

It wasn't really tricky concurrency. Somebody just made the mistake of sharing a pointer across goroutines. It was quite indirect. Boils down to a function takeing a param and holds onto it. `go` is used at some point closing over this

It took months to finally solve a data race in Go. No race detector would see anything. Nobody understood what was happening. It ultimately resulted in a loop counter overflowing, which recomputed the same thing a billion of time (but alway

Not OP. I did pay, for 10y. But the video quality kept slowly degrading (lower bitrate). And ads in the video content kept increasing. YouTube also increased advertising some paying shows, YouTube shorts, and more. No way to say no, only &q
