"deliberately (created and escaped)" is very implausible yes. "(deliberately created) and escaped" not so much though.

That one I can't be too mad about. Better FIFA gets the profits instead of ticket scalpers.

Simplex noise is nice because it's more efficient to calculate, especially for larger dimensions but it has a noticeably different look to it so it's not a drop-in replacement.

Is it so hard to explain what the term "High-NA" is supposed to mean at the start of your article?

Transputers have nothing to do with quantum computing. They're completely classical computers.

If I search for "Open AI" on google right now the first search results are openai.com, chatgpt.com and the OpenAI wikipedia page. None of which are open AI.

Because then you have to add that you mean UTC since the time format looks like local time. With beats it's obvious from the formatting that it's internet time.

I almost think that one was a bit too early. Having a "universal" way to share time that's not timezone ambiguous would be pretty handy these days.

The person doing the hiring would be criminally liable and probably go to prison. The corporation itself would at best pay a fine.

I wonder if a source-based distro like Gentoo would have made OP's life slightly easier. Portage for instance should allow you to maintain a set of patches to automatically apply when you update your kernel. Those flatpak problems also

>Our desktop OSes are just incompatible with running untrusted software, and you're gonna want to do that. So you're saying people should only use walled garden closed source OSes? Sounds like tyranny to me.

IBM regularly announces silicon breakthroughs like this but I'm not aware of those ever becoming products. Is IBM mainly in the business of licensing their technology to big silicon manufacturers with stuff like this? Is it just market

>This is literally not a problem. All Python projects use 4-space indentation. Tell that to the one team at my old workplace that used spaces for all their scripts. Like I said it’s a stupid source of errors that can be mitigated through

Well yes. Say you check out a project that's all tabs but your editor is using spaces for indentation. You change a line and now the program is broken. Calling the auto-formatter won't help you.

by ginko 4mo ago
You can't autoformat broken indentation with significant whitespace since it would make the program not parse (or parse incorrectly)

>Because then you just hit that key binding, then press `>` or `<` — or Tab/Shift+Tab if you are using an inferior editor ;-) — until the indentation is where you need it. But that's cumbersome compared to moving the bloc

It‘s a source of problems with mismatched tabs/spaces being used for indentation between team members for fairly little upside. Imo it also makes moving blocks of code more cumbersome.

Adding significant whitespace to a new language feels like a bad choice. It's not terrible but I do think it was a bad call for Python in hindsight.

Seems like only the Spanish Wikipedia mentions this which is suspect. English Wikipedia mentions German&French manufacturers in the 1890s. German Wikipedia attributes it to a French Citroën engineer.

Being able to hear your surroundings on a motorcycle or bicycle seems very important for safety to me. Filtering that out feels dangerous.

I'm generally in agreement on social media bans for children, but the proposed solution is age verification on all platforms which has a huge amount of problems. Why can't we just ban the use of smartphones without parental locks
