Btw, HN Replies also stopped working for me a month or two ago. Not sure why (I imagine something to do with my email or domain - re-registering didn't help), but if you find a chance to look into it I'd be grateful.

Beginner(?) question: why is the model map<term_id, list<pair<document_id, positions_idx>> > inverted_index; and not map<term_id, map<document_id, list<positions_idx>> >

I'm confused by Seagate's response. Why didn't they focus on making the SMART data tamper-proof?

That's wild. Thanks for explaining. I had no idea this depends on the locale. Looks like I have about a million scripts to fix...

What's the trap for this one? I can't think of any engine that parses this to mean anything other than the letters a through z.

Somewhat off topic, but what is a realistic example of where you need atomics with sequential consistency? Like, what useful data structure or pattern requires it? I feel like I've seen every other ordering except that one (and consu

I'm no fan of open plan offices but the generalization from "me" to you" is a huge leap and not warranted by the sample-size-one experiment. Maybe if you have a ton of distractions at the office, your current tasks fre

I think the only way you can alleviate people's concerns here is by legally binding the company in a way that would adequately address those concerns. Which I don't recall ever seeing any company attempt in such a scenario, prob

Yes, the prefix of zeros (and a plus sign) are exactly what I'd expect to enable via flags, not as a default. Especially because zero prefix isn't even always insignificant - it denotes octal in some contexts.

My understanding is landlords were retaliated against for frequently deviating from the prices set by such software. Is that wrong for this particular company? Because if it's not, then I don't see how that's not price fixing

Hang on. Isn't "try and" just completely different from "try to"? "Can I leave work early?" "Try and see." This is at worst a threat, and at best telling the other person to just do it and ask fo

I'm pretty sure something weird is going on in your case because I recently had to fight a case of this that had seemingly gotten more aggressive in Windows 11, not less. The focus stealing prevention has always been there and is sti

Thanks, yeah, that's what I messed up. I was so focused on the reduction direction that I misparsed the statement.

Oh gosh. I think I was so focused on the reduction direction that I think I misread the premise of the comment -- it seems somehow my brain parsed "use SAT to solve Sudoku" as "solve SAT using Sudoku". That's why I
