Maybe it would be distasteful, but a trailer with an ICE engine that could charge the battery while driving. Might be a trick to make it so that the generator could supply more energy than is consumed per minute.

Not parent, but I do data analysis where more memory is always appreciated. Essentially all tooling now works with bigger than memory datasets, but you eat a performance cost as data gets paged in/out to disk. When you can load a 50GB

As a consumer does that matter? I understand server grade hardware wants the extra monitoring/diagnostic gizmos, but will the memory be corrected with the same efficiency as DDR4 ECC or is it an entirely neutered implementation?

I am more interested if the cloak and dagger yielded any actionable intelligence. The article notes that there was a successful launch weeks after the caper, but that seems far too quick for any kind of learnings to have been implemented. A

I currently work in pharma, and I can point to teams of SAS programmers. There are definitely R efforts, and I have no doubt it is the eventual future, but it is not yet here.

Same reason people use Excel and not LibreOffice. Until you can promise 100% compatibility, users are going to run into something that breaks vs the original platform. For real business processes, the licensing cost is not worth sweating ab

Are you from the future? R is making progress to replacing SAS in pharma, but has a long ways to go. Here is an article from last year[0] patting themselves on the back for making a R submission to the FDA. There are oodles of existing proc

This also seems like significantly more work than using mud as mortar. Just providing fuel for the fires to sustain this heat feels like it would be too costly to make this a routine procedure. >The expert consensus explains vitrified fo

Genuinely curious, what kind of Crazy Stuff do you need for a static site generator? It strikes me as one of those technologies I want to be as boring as possible. I never want to debug why my content is not being rendered.

I have zero expectations from an intern. The scope of the programs vary wildly, but I have seen platforms that are as little as two months. It takes a month just to get someone a new laptop, access to systems, any kind of onboarding to proc

Kind of cheating, if the "9 rules" have numerous bullet points. Rule eight has 18 non-specified bullet points. Rule nine, 27.

Many of the "27 numbers" have fairly wide (relative) error bars as well. We literally do not have exact values for several of these.

Do not forget the rate-limting. That one seemed like a misunderstanding of the business: to keep people sucked into the platform. Why would advertisers pay if their cows could only be milked for a few minutes of engagement per day?

Car dealerships are a huge revenue generating entity for state governments. It is possible doing away with dealerships would net out to similar incomes, but short term would most likely lead to a net negative for the balance sheet.
