He has a very binary sense of better/"SUPERIOR". I don't dispute the qualitative direction of the claim, but was there a quantitative estimate of how much benefit "true" dual core or an APU would bring vs. the

It allows the "fail fast" philosophy, where things break quickly and noticeably (in this case, when you run out of RAM), rather than risking a silent degradation in performance.

What does "why a library is found or not" mean? It is either in the LD_LIBRARY_PATH or it isn't? The screenshot doesn't make it clear to me what this refers to.

Why would someone have been looking at an very obscure site on the Internet Archive? Why is that more likely than looking at it on the web?

Normal fiber optic can be tapped surreptitiously[0]. There are a number of companies that sell anti-intrusion tech, but it's hard to say which side is winning with respect to what governments can do. [0] https://fac.ksu.edu.

Why can't we make it backward compatible so an interface has each client application say "I support the new interface" if it does? You probably would need to add kernel support to handle the fork/execve case, but I don&#

It looks like this still doesn't cancel out? It's an interesting point as to whether our hypothetical change in c would affect the relationship between photon energy and wavelength, but either way we get a nonzero power of c.

If you read the PDF, the phone numbers are in the subpoena as the key for what's being requested, so yes they clearly were stored in a way Signal can access.

The fine structure constant is dimensionless and would be different if c were different. When doing a unit conversion, one also has to alter other constants so as to be consistent with observed reality; whether one alters other constants or

My understanding is that these were all existing warnings that were off by default (you needed to pass -Wall to see) that are now displayed by default; I don't see any indication in the patch thread that there were corresponding behavi

The question is not clear but I assume the ordering is meant to be on some kind of timestamp, so the streams would each be increasing

To any of this, so what? As long as Kagi makes a good product, and they do, I'll keep paying. As for privacy, my main goal is to protect myself from advertising, which Kagi does excellently.

This is a pretty dumb objection. There are many things that would need to undergo a difficult transition if one were to abolish timezones, but the google answer box is not one of them. If time zones were abolished then "time in melbour

My chess experience is not that high, but enough that I'm skeptical of the claim that the same position would be duplicated in a search tree enough for it to matter. I'd be interested to see an actual measure of this with Leela Ze

This appears to apply only to binaries compiled with NVCC; compiling CUDA code with LLVM/clang for non-nvidia would not be a license violation (disclaimer: IANAL)

The git behavior seems greatly preferable here. As mentioned in other threads, the notion of commutativity here is very weak and counterintuitive; it only seems to cover the applicability of an auto-merge heuristic, not any actual notion of

I thought the Linux kernel enforces/requires a pointer to fit into a long, so any platform with Linux will define long type as appropriately sized?
