oh, here you are! ok, for me it's a strange hybrid of pop-science with some newyorker style storytelling which seems to be written in a way for reader to somehow enjoy just an amount of words used. I love reading scientific news, but I

of course it's quantamagazine. Such a weird journal, I still wonder who's the audience.

orbiting a planet in that case is no different than orbiting a sun on the same orbit as planet. Probably even more cumbersome, all that jiggling around. Or are you talking about making a gravity assist to turn the orbit of the probe into le

I remember playing old french game "Metal Mutant", which on a level three or four asked something in french (it was probably asking for a code from manual) and if you answered wrong, it wouldn't exit the game, but it'd j

identifying and shining light only on specific type of cells on retina through the iris is of limited value? I personally didn't know we even have that kind of precision.

it's not "emulating", it's exactly what you describe. And it's just one additional "v" away, can't be shorter than that.

It's not only an additional disk space, it also a need to sync it with main column, using triggers or whatever, and have much bigger backups. Why "initial instinct was to question", though? I don't see downsides still, u

"move" absolutely did move a lot of workforce, since farmers are much more productive, not as much help is needed.

So, it already starts affecting stuff. I and 10 other recent hires were cut today because our next round is in jeopardy. That startup is in sales and hiring area, so it senses recession much sooner than other industries, but there's th

I have M2 Air and using it for rails development, sometimes with multiple docker containers, but the most hungry usually is just chrome with 500+ tabs. It usually does not throttle at all and is barely warm. Unless in direct sunlight (it&#x

it's a simple to learn gnuism that most good tools follow but (mostly) java apps for whatever reason disrupted it and added a lot of mess.

One mistake that bitten me a couple of times is not to reseed after fork(). AFAIR Perl calls srand automatically on fork, and I've been surprised that ruby at circa version 1.8 - didn't, which gave me quite some interesting behavi

I actually had a less than pleasant surprise when debugging sidekiq process with a higher than usual threads count, and noticing 100ms-multiples in my traces. 100ms before switch indeed seems to be too high for an app with a potential to mi

thanks! I love ruby but I'd be afraid to do anything but web backends and shell scripting with it. it's people like you who move language adoption!

...but ruby is whitespace sensitive too. It's hard to notice, because rules mostly follow intuition, but there're cases when not only a missing newline, but absense or addition of a space changes resulting syntax. Currently I reme

RSpec moved from that quite some time ago. Monkey patching nowadays is usually frowned upon, even refinements, which could simulate monkey patching in a limited scope, are rarely used.
