This is also about appreciation. The main bottleneck for increasing capacity is not machines, rooms or beds, those are available. It's hospital staff that's lacking. ICU beds are the most staff intensive beds in a hospital. It

Germany had elections at the end of September, and I feel that this is the main reason for the catastrophy that is unfolding now. It has prevented the ruling parties from imposing stricter vaccination requirements more early on. They could

ring incorporates a barebones ASN.1 parser that also webpki uses, which is probably the crate you want to use if you want to do certificate verification in Rust. webpki is C-free but it does use ring for cryptographic primitives so that wil

Does the SharedArrayBuffer approach offer any way to tell the OS scheduler to wait? Because the only waiting method I know of is busy waiting, aka wasting cycles at 100% of a CPU core. In normal processes you can call a sleep function, whic

Key size determines number of bytes the signature takes up, which is one of the determinants of the complexity of a QR code. I suppose if you don't know what you are doing, and want to reduce QR code complexity, you lower the key size.

From this [0] list it seems there are a bunch of RSA root certificates, but they all use RSA 2048 or 4096, both of which are still secure (with 4096 having diminishing returns compared to RSA 2048 [1]). The article was about RSA 512 which h

Yeah it's horrible how Apache 2.0 has become an industry standard with this clause in place. I think this industry standard status was the main reason why LLVM has chosen it.

Ideally that lint would be on by default though. Most code doesn't use non-ASCII identifiers. It's not happened though because of uhm. political reasons.

Sure it was, and for MS there is definitely strategic value in owning Github. But I even if you factor in that strategic value, Github is not as important to Microsoft as, say, Instagram is to Facebook.

In 2018, MS had 110 billion USD in revenue, while Github had 200-300 million USD. So the Github business is <0.5% of MS's revenue.
