The easiest way is through ridiculous padding. If you consider carefully and think it will take a day, say it will take two weeks. If two weeks, say six months and so on. This is the sort of thing you do when the unthinkable outcome shifts

I'm completely serious in the sense that you could do that and really would in some situations. You might do it because you want to factor the handling of the different result cases out to another function.

How about re-purposing some of it for unlicensed short-range consumer devices (a la WiFi, Bluetooth). We desperately need more spectrum for that.

You can choose to unwrap the result type wherever you want, as opposed to it automatically unwrapping in place at the call site and having a weird propensity to encourage a "special" return from there.

Simple! You just make f take in g's result type.

The city are in the process of slowly transitioning the ferries to electric (battery powered and hydrogen fuel cell, based on distance). I believe that there's already a fuel cell ship in limited service.

In my opinion, Semver only makes sense for shared libraries, not for applications, or OSes, or for APIs exposed on the network. For applications, it goes just like you said. For APIs on the network, the caller should only get to control the

It probably won't happen in most of the United States because most Americans don't want it to but it's not because it's an outlandish idea. It's the cheapest and most practical one.

The big players will probably switch once we get to the point that nothing still running on OpenGL needs optimally efficient usage of the GPU (either because it's old or because it was never performance-critical to start with, such as

Previously, Gergely Orosz tweeted that Google Cloud Domains would be shutting down as a part of the sale of Google Domains to Squarespace, citing a private source. Google have now publicly confirmed the shutdown.

Mixed resolution can look great on X11 if you do it with super-sampling, especially if you're able to do it via integer downscaling.

Aristotle seems to have been insidiously wrong on just about every topic. Why should his views on happiness be any different?

I don't think that Jai is a very good example. I doubt a single one of my coworkers will have heard of it but they've all heard of Go.

Given the spiel at the beginning about how this place is different from where I live and that in this place, there are no rules which trump the park's rules, I can't agree that it's obvious that police, ambulances, and fire t

4k was the marketers cashing in a puffery token they'd been carrying for quite a long time by accurately measuring the short side of displays. They moved to measuring the long side AND exaggerating by rounding up in the same generation

This bites because there was a little-documented little integration between Google Domains and Gmail to allow you to use a custom domain for a personal Gmail address.

It's a specialized data structure that the whole Lua ecosystem drives you to use as your primary collection type. They're blessed by the language, every library function will use will take and return them, and your deserializer wi

I'm not going to complain about the indexing but I am going to complain about tables. The fact that you need at least one element to be in a table to trigger heuristics to serialize it properly makes Lua uniquely bad for use in polyg

Ah, I'm not surprised, sadly: KDE has been buggy for me in so many ways ever since they made Plasma...

If your frustration was that x11 apps are really blurry then: Yes, unless you use kwin as your compositor and tell it to let x11 apps scale themselves.

I'd love to see them follow with full-blown package-level methods and fields at some point (as alluded to in the alternatives) but this seems like a great minimal change to address a real pain point with learning to code in Java.

Yep! On my real systems, my configured shell is a wrapper which sets ZDOTDIR and execs zsh from my nix profile.

It doesn't feel tidy to have .cache or .config out at the root of home folder either. IMO, those should be pushed down into .local. At least with the xdg base spec you can do that!

It's interesting that this feature is essentially a clone of how string interpolation has been made extensible in Scala. However, the JEP only mentions Scala once.... in the form of an example which has been made strangely more complex

I'll take a stab and say that I believe that nix's actual power is to efficiently materialize an exact tree of files (raw or generated) on any machine. By "exact", I mean in a fully reproducible way. That capability turn
