Do linker scripts look the same in the rust tool chain? (E.g. for implementing a bootloader?)

Maybe it wasn't written in Tex. The kerning does look a bit suspect.

yep, it's a shame vscode doesn't do something similar and instead copies a huge runtime (evidently, multiple times?!?) onto unsuspecting hosts.

More importantly there's a really good band named isis that probably has not benefitted from the Islamic state. (Ok, they disbanded in 2010, but still).

Yes that's the point. If vscode didn't insist on installing potentially gigabytes of blobs then this wouldn't be necessary. (I'm a vimmer anyway... And emacs is too bloated to fit too, conveniently.)

My newest yocto image mounts a 640K RO tmpfs on top of $HOME/.vscode-server to prevent people using VSCode from shitting all over the relatively small emmc.

Judging from user's posting history, they're not the biggest fans of llms This is kind of the perfect use case though -- it's a game who cares if it's right or not.

Yes. Not even just HPC clusters, shared login servers are pretty common in academia. I manage several in our lab. Sure, we mostly trust the users against malice more or less but not so much against incompetence. A malicious vscode plugin wo

Anecdotal of course, but I heard that this wasn't at all the case circa 2006 and that (then) FB employees would routinely read private messages and such. Obviously it wasn't a big company yet and probably didn't have those p

There's an easy solution... release your code as GPL :) (but that doesn't protect you against GPL-incompatible copyleft licenses, I guess)

For radio detection, solid water is better because it has a much much longer radio attenuation length.

It has to be nearish vertical (how close depends on energy, but it's a pretty wide band around vertical) so that all of its energy is not absorbed in the atmosphere. As you get closer to horizontal trajectories you go through way more

Let me clarify, as someone involved in writing this paper. This radio emisison (Askaryan emission) is the mechanism by which we hope to detect neutrinos with detectors like ARA (and also PUEO, RNO-G, etc. which I also work on :) ), but the

that's... one way to put it :) The 5-station analysis covering a number of years is coming out soon (but searching for neutrinos, not impacting air showers, which is what this PRL is about) .

To be clear, the detection here is of a mundane cosmic ray that started interacting in the upper atmosphere, but came at such an angle (and the Antarctic plateau is high enough) that the cascade it started continued into the ice. But yes, o

Depends on the energy scale involved! Higher energy = "easier" to detect (produce more light or radio emission), but the events are rarer so you want to build a bigger detector. There are also underwater pools of water being used
