Crossing let's say Paris from north to south probably takes 1h by car, something like 5km... This is already 24x faster.

In rust it would be: struct Foo(u32); No?

I would say it shines when you have systems constraints, for example embedded & robotics work well with Rust. You cannot have a GC (either you don't have a heap or you cannot tolerate a GC pause resp.) but you still have the benefi

Interesting tidbit for you my Amiga friend, guess from where the name Copper comes from in "Copper Robotics" (see the other thread for context) :)

Copper Robotics creator here: the issue with ROS IMHO is that the architecture is not ideal and if you want your framework to be just ROS compliant you get all the issues the other comments are talking about (wrestling, tuning and so on). C

What is described here is for me a competent technical manager. As they scale, it is just that their focus cannot be on everything at the same time so they need to pick what is the most important and help a specific team at specific times.

I don't understand, how the signature even worked? Please please tell me those drivers are signed... Right? ...

So we basically lost a source of rental movies encoded with a good bitrate :(. All the streaming services AFAIK do not match Blu-ray quality and keep on cutting streaming and storage cost. Adding insult to injury all the Paramount and co.

Yep and this is what is impressive, I still haven't been in another company where either it was a security shit show (anything goes) or a profoundly stupid IT department removes root access for devs and put firewalls and do deep packet

The example about the software updates resonates with me. My policy is usually for the team, if you can upgrade your dependencies, just upgrade now. I have seen so many companies just taking the short term thinking again and again just to r

Indeed the software support is awesome, even using rust on it is a pleasure!

Oh with modern architectures this sentence is so wrong. If you don't think about grooming the hardware in the right way from the get go you will never touch peak performance by a couple orders of magnitudes period. See how games are

Question for the crowd that likes handwriting: did you transition to a writing tablet? The day I bought a Remarkable 1 instead of lugging around notebooks has been a revelation for me. Now moved on to a boox 3c (with colors!) after a few ye

Unfortunately humanity is constantly on the verge of self destruction so I would expect to come back to a radioactive smoldering place with some survivors roaming around still trying to finish one another with sticks and stones.
