If it does, it's going to be incredibly interesting to see how the breakup is effected. Since so much of this is going to be IP, how do they handle IP that used to be shared? I.e. all the internal tooling to deploy and manage applicat

I find these generally worth it because you can surface those aspects up to the function signature. It would be a lot nicer to have a function signature that shows the limits than it is to have a failure and have to open the docs for the l

Isn't it effectively impossible to prove that a selection was truly random? Because if it correlated to something (so that we could verify that relationship), it's no longer random. Like if I made a random number generator, and

This is the biggest question I have. This, to me, doesn't function as a desk because of the incline. It has the potential to be a remarkably comfortable means to use a desktop (or perhaps laptop if you built in a way to mount it), bu

It's the incentive structure. It's effectively Goodhart's Law in action: When a measure becomes a target, it ceases to be a good measure. In this case, the measure is "number of pull requests", and the result of m

The whole thing is disappointing to see, but this bit was eye opening for me: > One young woman in Florida said the same man would call on Saturday nights to say: “I can hear your typing. I really like the way you type.” Another longtime

It's a movie, made by white people, based on a book written by a white person, which was a re-writing of African American tales he collected on plantations. While at the very core there is a hint of Black culture, I would say that it&

Alveoli are basically small air sacs in your lungs, so they're a surface (it's just an inverted ball, a hollow sphere in a not-so-solid object). No idea how that influences where the electrons go. I wonder how the nervous system w

It's rather ubiquitous, I'm surprised you haven't seen them. The plastic bits in the USB 3 ports in my motherboard, case, keyboard, _and_ the USB ports built into my monitor arms are all blue. Lower USBs are black. It&#x27

Normal as in average? No, that leans pretty far left. It's not particularly unusual to see though. My theory is that there is a very loud minority of people online that believe things like that (or are willing to exaggerate to that

The virtual keyboard is another one that is incredibly useful to everyone when that one key on your keyboard craps out and you have to hobble along until the new one comes in the mail.

You needn't (and shouldn't) edit the config file in the image. Going into /var/lib/docker/images and editing things is bound to end poorly. Most images have environments variables you can set that will control

Isn't there a special flag you can set for people with wheelchairs? Either way, I think you're right, and I predict ADA woes in Ubers future. Those vans with wheelchair lifts aren't cheap, and Uber can't charge more for

Does the vacuum of space generally require a closed system? And venting the CO2 is bad for the same reason that the heat death of the universe is bad; at some point you have converted all of the usable stuff into useless stuff and have vent

That's standard legalese since they don't have any context to identify who "I" is. And the real identity of many people involved with WikiLeaks seems to be unknown, so it isn't impossible that it was someone else.

Sedentary is relative. If it's nice out, I could spend hours outside working on my plants, and really only need to wash off my arms at the end. I'm up and moving, but it's not enough to make me sweaty and gross. I would st

That has nothing to do with Section 230 protection. Nor am I aware of any large Internet site that has ever pretended to be a public square (beyond Reddit, who announced the change). I don't see why this is a good move, other than ope

They're great for tinkering with distributed systems. I.e. if you want to play with Kubernetes, you can build a master and 2 workers out of RPis for like $90. They won't have enough power to run anything substantial, but it&#x27

I think there are no plans because the risk the backup procedures create is high enough to make it more prudent to just shut down. Miscommunications in hospitals are a significant risk, even with EHR (thus the original requirements for EHR)
