I bought a ~$500 item from amazon the other day. They sent me a code to give to the driver to recieve the package. They told me not to give it over the phone/intercom, and to only give it in person. He tapped it into his phone before g

It's not the leading company in any of those areas. Do you mean the leading company that does all those things together?

Gold is traditionally the currency of international exchange, where you can't use any one country's currency. One can imagine a crisis that reverts international markets to using gold like this, at which pointing having a reserve

It's very complicated in implementation, so likely people didn't see it as worthwhile until recently.

Usually the copy is entirely devoid of "information" per se. It's a series of nice sounding but totally vacuous statements.

What in life has taught you that? High profile abuse allegations are frequently false. Consider the duke lacross case, for which the accuser recently admitted to fabricating it. That isn't to say that such allegations are never true, b

> Why ato? Because C doesn’t really have strings, but arrays of bytes, hence “array to int” -> atoi. The lore I was familiar with was that a stood for ascii.

Yes there should. Native apps use system libraries, flatpaks bring their own. Computers have limited amouns of ram. When we run programs that use the same libraries, they stay in cache in ram and don't need to be reloaded from disk. Th

You can compress arbitrarily many messages with it, and the dictionary remains 153MB. Why it's worth pointing out that brotli already uses a dictionary is that otherwise it would be generating the dictionary as it compressed, meaning t

There is money in that, it just fundamentally doesn't make sense to build a subscription service for it. There are still good movies being made, but they cost money to make, and someone needs to pay for them. They cannot exist if they

Gambling prohibition went fine. The laws were relaxed because there was money to be made, not because they were causing problems. The GP outlines why alcohol and gambling are distinguished. Alcohol is enjoyed by a majority of people, with a

Xmr aims to be a digital cash, and basically achieves that. Btc has goals more akin to digital gold, hence being more useful to speculators than people buying things is somewhat intentional. I don't know who the oligarchs you're t

You can use radar or similar technologies to determine velocity. Point it straight down and you can see how fast you're falling. Point it at an angle, subtract vertical velocity, and you have horizontal velocity.

The upper two have had several known issues with them. I haven't heard anything about the latter one, but that doesn't mean they're free of issues.

How very altruistic, eradicating malaria in one's own country. With that headstart, surely they must have finished curing it worldwide by now.

Despite manifold evidence that they are. See the sbf case. They get implicated for being recipients of donations from a fraudster. That's not a serious demonstration that they aren't altruistic and don't care about helping ot

Taxes are used for building roads, not curing malaria. It's so odd how angry people get when someone tries to help others.

The python example is the pure naive recursive algorithm. It isn't meant to itself be optimized, but rather unveil the capacity of the interpreter. The raku code is, of course, unreadable gibberish, but I assume it contains some basic

the optimizer should be a magic black box. As soon as you start demanding a particular optimization, it shouldn't be an optimization anymore. In C you have inline assembly and intrinsics and pragmas and macros and so on. If you want th

A social problem is by definition one with a social solution. If we can find a technical solution to a problem, it turns into a technical problem. Wikipedia is itself a technology. It's not outrageous to suggest that new technologies c
