That’s not correct: Equal value isn’t an issue. Having both variables point to the same memory is.

Not experienced with Postgres and its ecosystem unfortunately, but all those Postgres extensions popping up on hn lately certainly make me envious. To someone with more insight: How risky is it to rely on those extensions? I guess rust hand

Same here. Had it on the CPC464. Had no idea what to do with it other than IIRC loading an image editor whose highlight (for me) was a brush in the form of a propeller fighter plane :)

Adding to that: just slapping HTTPS on those connections still would prevent an observer from detecting you downloading cowsay. IIRC every package has a fairly unique size and unless you add padding that is enough metadata to figure out wit

https://geolua.com Allows anyone to create geocaching-like adventures controlled by server-side Lua scripting. Neat features are multiplayer support, some included widgets to quickly build a UI (see[1]) and a time travel debugge

Sound like I should finally do something useful with my scapegoat-consulting.com domain I purchased years ago. I intended to put up a prank site offering basically just that :)

Also you „only“ need 12500€ to start. Though you’re still liable for the full 25000€ if things go sideways.

Oh wow. Didn't expect anyone to remember. It was fun to program that one as the programming game for our local hacker conference and then seeing players compete. At some point later IIRC someone even wrote an somewhat advanced AI and

Ah yes. That explains how my ballot is well-formed (formatting completely messed up by copy/paste, but probably 99% of all people couldn't tell a difference anyhow): > gρi α−σi = gw+rσi α−σi = gwασi α−σi = gw = Ai and hρi (β&#x

Is there any cloud provider that offers such VMs? Seems incredibly simpler to fail over like that instead of implementing a userland procedure.

Super Mario Galaxy has a mode where a second controller doesn't control another character but instead allows some helpful actions (like dragging or grabbing things, collecting stuff, etc).

Oh. I’m a dummy. Totally forgot to mention the death ban. It had a scaling ban as well. The longer you played the longer you got banned. Capped at 2 days. You could purchase lives to revive though. I too remember those other hardcore server

Minecraft had a series of "Hardcore" servers and in particular one named "HCFactions". Sadly none really worth playing exists today. It was the most fun I every had playing coop with friends. The idea was that there&#x27

Ah yes. The "Just use FTP + curlftpfs + SVN" approach for solving this problem ;-) That really doesn't help OP as their customers most likely won't be capable to run that.

I switched my Twitter Trends location to Falkland Islands and my feed to "Latest Tweets". I guess this technically now is a filter bubble, but I don't feel like I have the obligation to expose myself to algorithmic content an

Odd. Certainly different to how I thought it works (equivalent to base64, just with divmod instead of bit-shifting). Thanks for fixing my intuition. Related: https://cs.stackexchange.com/q/21736

Still not seeing it. As it's an encoding, not a compression, it cannot produce a large amount of output. At most I guess ceil(log2(256)/log2(58)). So encoding will produce a slightly larger output, while decoding will produce a sl

I’m confused by this. Maybe I misunderstand the algorithm given in the draft linked above, but that doesn’t look O(n^2) at all. Intuitively it also doesn’t make sense as quadratic somehow implies that each character depends on all others (s

I'm really surprised by that. I feel like Syncthing would really benefit from a simplified user interface for its core use case, which I imagine is "sync one folder across multiple machines". It's really nice that they h

Interesting. I always thought they'd use some PNG chunk (comment?) for that.

That man could have easily tracked his bags with one of those cheap GPS trackers as well... wait a moment.. this is an article about how Airtags are supposed to be used. Nothing to see here.

Neat. The presence of flags makes it almost too easy :-) It seems pretty similar to https://virtualvacation.us/guess (which I just run across earlier today), except you're asked to click on a map to solve instead of us
