Look's like kernel::Result does just that. It is re-exported as part of the prelude. https://rust-for-linux.github.io/docs/kernel/type.Result.htm...

I'm no mathematician, but I have always found it strange infinities are talked about as physical states (towers of tall towers, etc), and not functions. Integer number counting is essentially a successor function; take N, add 1, output

Electric cars or not, the Saudi wells are likely running lower than advertised. They have been pumping sea water into well to force oil out of others for decades. This is what you do to extend the life of an oilfield. SA has a long history

Wow these look miles ahead. How customizable is the rendering pipeline? For example can I toggle the dithering or use different parameters?

Will they “recharge?” If so, on what time scale?

People also forget Roblox is 15 years old, it predates Minecraft. During that time there has been constant development. The founder has a lifetime of building educational software, and had a full career before Roblox.

Yes, practically this means shoving as many nitro groups together. But what makes nitro groups explosive to begin with? From what I remember, the large electron shells of the oxygen atoms repel each other, increasing the bond N-O-N angle by

More likely it’s not stable or no way to synthesize it. Complex molecules have internal “stress” that needs to be weaker than the individual bonds. Making explosives is often maximizing that stress while still making a viable molecule, kin

Humans have a natural tendency to refine a single idea by splitting it into two based on a differentiating factor. This ends up looking like a tree when applied repeatedly. Dichotomous keys for species identification are another example of

Kiwi Farms is vile. I stumbled upon it while researching someone who turned out to be a target of one of their hate campaign. Its a PHP Forum-style site, but with entire sub forums dedicated to small groups and event specific people. Long r

I don't think recipes lie, I think most people don't understand what caramelizing is versus softening. Caramelizing is great for onion focused recipes like French Onion Soup and creates a rich flavor profile. But for everyday reci

I really hate the hidden charges at restaurants. Tips are generally calculated as a % of the final bill. But the bill includes tax (often higher than normal Sales Tax), and now other bullshit fees like CA Health Mandate. So $100 total of me

Not surprised. Youtube has been known to sell likes/dislikes for years. "Trending" videos for Pop Music will be minutes old yet have thousands of likes and views. The views and like/disklike ratio are about as useful as

The problem with "games" is that the designers often have a goal already in mind, and then give players the tools to reach that goal. For any meaningful analysis, you need to understand the artist (game designer) to fully understa

No thanks. It only takes one person to decide that fertility or some other basic function is a disease to end all life on Earth. Genetic tampering is dangerous enough in a lab.

How does one represent 30 offsets like India? Also dot isn’t easily typable so this is dead in the water.

> HOWEVER, Rust is such an excellent language that we all want to use it to write applications ANYWAY. Is this really the reason, or is it because people think they will get free performance wins by choosing the correct language? The ple

The conclusion in the article that using a getter/setter would fix most of the issues seems much more straight forward. Maybe I don't write enough python, but I rarely think modifying properties on a library object is preferable o

You’re hitting a wall moving from mathematical theory to hardware implementation. I hit a similar wall at some point. When writing a rendering pipeline the problem is not the math, but making real world devices do that math.

I majored in Chemistry, and we had a similar course on how to use library resources and tools to research. Since it was not directly Chemistry, the advisor said you could wait until your senior year to take it as an easy final semester cred

I saw a piece in a SF-based Italian art museum that was four panels, each with about 20 small cubbies. In each cubby was an individual abstract, brightly painted wood shape (carving?). If you squinted even a bit, it was indistinguishable fr

UML are blueprints, but blueprints are not the thing, just like maps are not the land. Talk to anyone in construction and their first complaint is often the blueprints are wrong. They may have missing or extra space, call for impossible thi
