I don't think you interpret the Apple case correctly. They got fined for advertising PERM job postings differently from regular job openings, distorting the test in the view of the agency. That has nothing to do with the post you are r

No. Following the letter of the law cannot be fraud. I think you don't understand the rules.

If the labor market test yields a candidate, the petition isn't filed. So there is formally no rejection from the USCIS. But application processes fail at this step all the time.

Parent was referring to a time of check to time of use bug. This kind of problem occurs every time you need to release and reacquire a lock between the point of decision and the point where the data is modified. The decision on which the m

I need to run some more numbers, but the dismissal of raytracing on performance grounds seems inaccurate to me at first glance. Note that they inflate the number of ray intersections by including shadow tests. That number shrinks dramatical

by gmueckl 2y ago
I don't understand why raytracing is rejected out of hand. It never defines the target hardware range, but the 3080 is very fast at hardware ray tracing. Ray tracing pipeline objects also solve the coupling issue the article complains

QNX is in a space with few competitors. FreeRTOS or ThreadX are designed to provide microcontrollers with scheduling and memory management functionality. They don't depend on fancy things like MMUs or provide frameworks for networking

Since when are social apps high risk? The high risk clause is clearly targeted at applications that have safety requirements (IEC 61508, ISO 26262 etc.). A crashing Twitter client won't injure or kill anyone.

Stable democracies hand over to new governments without bloodshed. Any amount of violence in the process is too much to count as stable.

The problem is that the far right is ready to exploit that situation with their broken populist rhetoric and look to gain massively from it. Currently, they are the second biggest faction behind the conservatives in the polls. All the moder

The game theoretic irony is that peace can often only be achieved by building up the military strength to deter potential attackers. There are a few places in the world where US involvement can lead tonkore stability. Faltering US support f

This. One side sticks to the rules and watches silently while the other side slowly undermines them. At the same time, the Republicans have perfected the twin strategies of sowing distrust in neutral media reorting and playing the victim ca

by gmueckl 2y ago
The positions the Republicans voiced in their campaign cam ony be summarized as far right. So applying the moniker to the party in it's current form is accurate. The party isn't the same as their voters/supporters.

Trump and Vance will almost certainly pull strings to erode the current political system in Washington with no regard for the spirit and likely even the letter of the constitution.

If 5nm semiconductors were essential for some military core capabilities, they'd start building the whole production chain domestically in a hurry at eyewatering cost and probably finish it over budget and 15 years late.

China was a commie state like the USSR countries back then. I don't see how the west could have treated one as the idiologocal archenemy and nemesis and not extent the same animosity to the other.

Patching a dependency comes with significant downstream costs. You need to carry the patch forward to new upstream versions . This implies remembering that the dependency was patched, extracting a patch from the existing changed code, and r

Engineering is about making certain that stuff works before it enters production. If we claim to do software engineering, then that's just a simple part of doing our job. Everything else is just tinkering and hacking (the bad kind).

I believe that Eclipse 2.x already had most of these features, but it certainly was in almost all 3.x versions as far as I remember. That IDE was amazingly far ahead of its time. Even 20 years later, tools like VS Code feel like a shocking

The actual need for continously delivery is mostly related to running public-facing services at large scale that need the ability to adjust to external events quickly, e.g. when defending against a new form of abuse requires an immediate so

I only used that feature inadvertently a long, long time ago. As I remember, the program would throw a Throwable exception when it would enter code that wasn't translatable. There was some sort of hot reloading, too. So you could try t

The borrow checker is not "zero cost". That is a myth. It forces the use of non-zero overhead escape hatches (RefCell/Rc) almost every time when the code tries to do something nontrivial, that is, something actually worth doi

I guess the subtle distinction here is that these great composers probably did it because they simply could do it as one deliberate choice among many. Lesser composers may be stuck mimicing a few styles because they lack the skill to go bey

by gmueckl 2y ago
My understanding is that when writing for an orchestra, a composer needs to adjust to the orchestra's skill level and likely err a bit on the easy side for good measure.

These two examples come from bad library design, not bad language design. The first one was fixed with ranges. The second one would be fixed if C used an explicit string type in it's standard library.

From the github README: > On the other hand, Fil-C is quite slow. It's ~10x slower than legacy C right now (ranging from 3x slower in the best case, xz decompress, to 20x in the worst case, CPython). That performance loss is severe
