And if you blindly follow the machine learning path with no scientific context you will convince yourself that having negative people on a team is an answer that makes total sense. I worry about this in a lot of fields where we are heavily

I'm curious about the background of the team. They don't seem to have any linguistics experts from what I could tell.

There have been multiple times that I have wondered how much latency a call out to some aws api was going to add. Something like this would give me a baseline, is it 20ms or 200ms without having to profile it myself. The ability to monitor

The "GIL" problem is so over exaggerated for most problems. A significant amount of threaded code is IO bound and in most of those cases the GIL gets out of the way. Checkout the cpython code around the calls to things like select

Has anyone here published in a journal independently of a large company or a university/research institution? I cannot think of any papers I have read that are attributed as such. I have been doing a bunch of independent research in

Why when with Windows you can leverage all your banks existing technology and security (including update) policies? CE was(is?) on an enormous amount of systems that you might expect to be an rtos. Windows might not be my first choice now,

If you want to checkout a POSIX RTOS for microcontrollers, I would checkout Nuttx. I have built some commercial products with it. [0] nuttx.org

The issues with X11 you mention is part of what Wayland tries to fix. And why early on seemingly benign things like screenshot tools broke.

Writing code for the XAP2 processor from CSR gave me headaches. Did not help that the compiler is some old forked off version of GCC.

I assume by bootloop you are talking about the LG failure that impacted the Nexus 5x among others. That _was_ attributed to hardware failure. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/LG_smartphone_bootloop_issue...

I wrote a simple lambda function that takes in a payload and a step function arn. It then fires up a bunch of step function jobs and maps the execution identifier to the input and stores that in s3 for later access. This ends up being real

.txt is in that list you quoted... Edit: the dyslexia kicked in txt!= tex I'm the fool.

Usually that feature is to give flexible airport options. So if you search for SFO it will also give you OAK. Nothing to do with your current location.

I have been a huge supporter of gitlab the last few years and have brought it into a few companies. The latest company we opted for their githost.io offering where you get your own instance to avoid the performance issues that they have ha

Interesting. I have been leveraging tox to provide a lot of what this seems to give you, but it certainly has been more of a hack than a solution.

Ah finally the disk usage breakdown. As someone who pays for Gitlab hoisting this is a huge deal. We see our usage number climb until the instance becomes unresponsive and no way to find where the growth is. Thank you!

Hasn't the CSR BLE mesh been around for far longer?

by btashton 10y ago
Yes, but these other ones are far more rare. Also there are shades that make it so much assessable for people. Almost every day I will ask someone what color something is because of poor selection. Chances are you have a color blind person
