Hm. Just thinking out loud. TLDR is that I think the core of the solution to good testing of React components, would look like using it like the Web Component model? So one thing that I keep coming back to as kind of a "baseline"

Hi! I worked at US Engineering, an MEP subcontractor. This means that when you're building a building, they will hire a general contractor (GC), and that general contractor will be responsible for the overall building and rake in the b

I don't think it does. That is, the quasicode algorithm looks something like this: def fulfill_order(order): range = 3 * miles surge = 1 workers = workers_in_range(order.location, range) while len(

So it can be as low as 3 if you're only concerned with some of the noise, but if you're trying to correct both for bit flips (0 exchanged for 1 and vice versa) and phase drift (0 + 1 being exchanged for 0 – 1 and vice versa) then

We could only know whether the algorithm is competent or incompetent, if we can see what it is and what it is optimizing for and how is it doing at that. Without transparency into GigBurger, you can't tell. This was the nice thing abou

No, like, this is fucking different. Read the damn article. Like, get down to pages 42-46. I know it's a lot to read, it's a law review article, it's fine if you don't read it, but like "oh what is it getting at?&qu

If you liked this, the Penny Arcade folks have a nice video series where they brew a bunch of different things and discuss tradeoffs and flavor profiles and all that. It is based on their D&D streams that are called "Acquisitions I

The main engineering effort to reduce by that much was completed in 6 weeks according to their YouTube video. 7 months is presumably more like “the time it has been stable for” or so, although I am not sure the dates line up for that 100%.

This is a surprising article because I kind of see this in light of the old Linux/BSD wars? “Red Hat owned making this policy apply to most of the popular software they distribute. On Debian the users have to set everything up.” — this

So it is, but the way that these units connect together is much closer than you'd think and amounts to a sort of mass distribution on the leg. The kilometer is a thousand meters of course. And a meter was defined the way it was to

Qq, do people doing their own server setup like this use containerization at all? When I looked at it, it was like “yeah you can run Docker or k3s,” and I think Hashicorp had their own version, but it seemed like folks didn't really bo

So the thing I always ctrl-F for, to see if a paper or course really knows what it's talking about, is called the “multi-armed bandit” problem. Just ctrl-F bandit, if an A/B tutorial is long enough it will usually mention them. Th

So I think the biggest dig for me is that according to this JEP there are times that this code, String? y = null; if (x != null) { y = x.foo; } might trigger a null pointer exception. I don't mind the static er

Note that you have a best alternative, even if you don't improve it. The goal is to have an active comparison, “if they just said no to everything here is what I would do and what that is worth to me.” And, you want to know the other p
