I guess Iron Maiden should rebrand as Cadmium Maiden

This is what the world needs

To whom? Oracle? Adobe? Ticketmaster?

by cozzyd 2y ago
ymmv Or zmmv if avx-512 is supported?

I don't see any explicit SIMD in here. Is the rust compiler able to emit SIMD instructions automatically in cases like this? (I guess I could compile and disassemble to check... )

Matlab users certainly exist, though they are much rarer than 15-20 years ago (before python was a suitable alternative). For signal processing, matlab still has has advantages over e.g. scipy.signal, which has not yet reimplemented all mat

This would be more practical with cell towers I think, but again they have the same GNSS based timing

Even in particle/astrophysics we rely on proprietary FPGA Vendor tools, in proprietary electronics design tools (ok, kicad is seeing increasing adoption), and often proprietary embedded tools (depending on the microcontroller vendor).

Are these synthetic fuels not GHG producers?

Joke's on them, I'm running Fedora

No unions? That makes this like 90% less useful...

hmm, ok I'll ask that at the briefing next time I go!

that's actually a violation of the Antarctic Treaty, unfortunately (?) (one of the few things I remember from the myriad videos they make you watch before you go down to the ice)

It has different performance characteristics

by cozzyd 2y ago
So... what happens in 2126? I suppose we will have python4 by then.

I think the problem is the Debian packaging, which has hundreds of MB of elisp or something. https://packages.debian.org/sid/emacs-common (yes, it does fit, but it takes up way more space than I'd like...)

I run systemd-based Debian just fine on 512 MB RAM BeagleBoneBlack SBCs with 4GB emmcs. Now emacs, that's a problem due to the large install size.

Perhaps by 2126, Linux will no longer have C in it, but that's probably hugely optimistic.

I don't disagree that python3 is hugely successful, but that doesn't mean the Python 2->3 pain was necessary. Certainly many Python users started using it too recently to remember it though.
831.
by cozzyd 2y ago
Python 3 created a huge amount of unnecessary effort and made a lot of people hesitant about using python again

Slack is not a good example of a performant electron app (or, perhaps if it is, that is quite damning praise). I should never be able to type faster than it can put characters on screen...

I think the term of art is currently concepts of a plan.

I think I tried this but it wasn't supported by our Exchange setup for whatever reason that I can't remember. I might try again at some point though...
835.
by cozzyd 2y ago
I ended up having to switch ti Thunderbird because my work email turned off its imap connector and evolution didn't support the exchange 2fa they are using. Maybe it's supported now? I did prefer evolution to Thunderbird. .

Depends how old... Highrises> 100 years old (like my condo building, which spent it's first 90-some years as an office building) were often way overbuilt.
838.
by cozzyd 2y ago
My condo building used to have underfunded reserves because of the incompetence of accounting of older condo boards. After some significantt raising of fees by a more competent condo board, appears to be fixed now...

If anything I expect people owning investment properties to be the most negligent.
