The primary definition of underground means hidden, but most of the secondary definitions apply here. adj. 3a: existing outside the establishment, as in "an underground literary reputation" n. 3c: an unofficial, unsanctioned, or i

Back when this all started, there was a word for people who insist on interacting with others while wearing tech on their face: glasshole. The message it sends is, "You're not worth me putting my screen down for a minute to have a

The linked talk video mentioned they're playing with it in jemalloc and tcmalloc. I found this https://github.com/jemalloc/jemalloc/issues/1440 but couldn't find tcmalloc doing similar. These guys a

Sure, but that will be more data than guessing and not trying.

Everything about the mission provided valuable data: especially that damaged blade. Failure modes are useful. Next, it might be useful to try flying anyway. If not, they still have running cameras, sensors and computer, until Perseverance

Why would there be wear in metal? Maybe from hands over years? The peg spacing is a very good point and maybe the disqualifier. I'm very dubious about the knitting claim. Woven textiles seem to go back 27,000 years. Knitting is just we

The knitting aid is persuasive. It fits with the geography, explains the different hole sizes, and it explains the knobs. Here's one of those vids; there are many more: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=76AvV601yJ0

The door plugs are regular windows with a little different bezel and they put a seat row right there. I think there was a young passenger on the Alaska flight: his shirt got sucked off and his mom was helping hold him in his seat. https:&

Yes, to my taste, all the sweeteners have an aftertaste and an odor including stevia.

Great, until they rename the aircraft like they did for the MAX... https://onemileatatime.com/boeing-737-8/

A failed door plug might kill several people. A failed rudder will kill all of them.

Thanks for the recommendation. I just got a Shark XL vacuum which mostly works without its app and cloud, you just push its Clean button and it goes off and comes back to dock when it's done. But if you want schedule and mapping, you&#

Something changed in the last few years. Maybe someone has a word for this? One revenue stream is not enough now, for anyone. You can't sell a widget. It seems shareholders now demand you maximize: * original sale of hardware, some

Not just that, it's also all the legwork of managed hosting: all that OS configuration, patching, redundancy, testing, monitoring etc etc is someone else's job, and they are accountable. Plus other managed services like LB, DB, au

So many different ways to die in a submarine, so many failure modes. It's one thing to solve all the engineering problems you can identify. It's another to learn from all the failure modes everyone else has encountered.

Is this like last time, where they were all raking in record profits but willing to follow the layoff trend to send a signal to investors?

And before the 737 MAX, in the 90's there were a number of 737 accidents related to rudder control units. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boeing_737_rudder_issues . And that space capsule, Starliner, was contracted

Tesla also sold 1.8 million EVs in 2023. Nobody else is even close to that scale. A fleet buyer would not want any low volume manufacturer.

Yes autofill, which feels like cheating, along with automatically filling in marks. What this does, though, is let you focus on only the hard decisions and the auto does everything else for you.

I was going to suggest changing to the Ken Ken convention, which uses '/' instead. Much easier visually.

My first game had an ambiguous solution not resolvable with logic. It was one of these deals: a.b ... b.a On the plus side, I like that it highlights the current number. For a mature exploration of this idea with many more

I'm a little baffled by the sampling problem. Is a few second small clip of something really representing some sea of lost income damage for the original? Or is it more like femto-dollars per viewing and they want it accounted for?

It's not an implementation detail if you can't do recursion in constant stack space. The underlying VM should allow all CS primitives, and the guest can add constraints as it wants.

Seems like TCO is is hard to do in browser JS, that's surprising. It's kind of a deal killer for basing a functional language on. JVM too for that matter.

Check out NewPipe. It sorts all your subs by date, lets you make your own play lists, and can also download.

Worth mentioning the Hare language, designed to be stable for 100 years. After they release 1.0 they don't plan to change it beyond fixes. It's Drew DeVault's project. https://harelang.org/roadmap/

It will have about zero horizontal velocity, or whatever ambient wind speed. For orbit, it would need 21000 kph.

My ideological objections are around ownership. I want to install a binary without a dozen security hoops I can't turn off. I don't want my local documents being scanned for whatever Apple caved to some government about this year.
