   In my experience you are not wrong. Resolving a build graph can be done efficiently. The main cost is typically the tools invoked to satisfy build targets. However, if the build graph does unnecessary work, it can slow the build down by a l

   You could sign packages and record their signatures along with the version. Which, coincidentally, is basically what https://teapot.nz does, e.g.: https://github.com/kurocha/geometry/blob/master&#x

   I think it's going to be up to companies who produce such devices to invest in longevity. As long as they produce software updates which require new hardware, people are going to eventually need to update the hardware. Unfortunately, r

   I can't help feel like a customer stuck in a consumer's world sometimes. I love buying and supporting individual artists on Bandcamp.

   .... and one day I had the crazy idea to make a database on top of it: https://github.com/ioquatix/relaxo because the underlying immutable data structure makes this quite feasible.

   As long as you are at least 1cm away, your eyes should be fine.

   I guess if you use these for a log-style database, write only backup (e.g. a replacement for tapes with better random read), you'll be happy. But for a general purpose drive they suck.

   I dressed up nicely because I wanted to pay respect to my interviewer, they made an effort to be there, I wanted to show that I cared to make an effort too.

   So, I do understand there are limitations, but I guess I think that once the data has started to flow, it should maximise available capacity. However, I feel like `pacman -Syu` should be faster. I don't mind the latency, but the throug

    I'm honestly sorry about the situation you talk about. It must be frustrating.. People work hard but it's difficult to make things genuinely better. Thanks for enlightening me.

    I agree with you. Thanks for taking the time to reply with something meaningful. It's not an area I'm really familiar with so it's great to hear other opinions and learn about different perspective. I think by adding CGT, you

    Currently when you sell a house, you are not taxed on the profit that you make. It's one of the few forms of income which is not taxed. Everyone else pays income tax. I think the point of introducing CGT is to tax people who are buying

    I'm glad it finally happened in NZ and as you say, it's awesome. I'm rocking 1000/500 - the biggest limitation is international throughput and latency which I suppose they are working on and improving all the time.

    Personally, I've found it quite okay. However, IMHO, if you have a commercial project with a deadline, don't take on board additional risk by installing it. A lot of "project management" can be thought of as risk managem

    I talked to my accountant and he suggested CGT + lower personal income tax. So, someone who owns O(1) house, pays CGT, but that's compensated by O(1) less income tax. Someone who is flipping houses is paying CGT but in the end, it&#x27

    I think it's up to city planners to include more green belts. Better for the environment, better for water drainage, better for humans, it's really win win win.

    When I see "tables" from a "database" in a web browser, I have a good laugh. I know it's not that impressive but our smallest non-trivial "table" has 100,000 records and our largest over a billion. Good lu

    I've got apps that were originally Objective-C and I've migrated parts of the app to Swift and it's been a great experience in almost every respect. I'm honestly surprised at how seamless the experience has been, given t

    I didn't know about this, and it was visualised well. Perhaps a multi-gap gap buffer would help solve the problem of multiple cursors.

    Lots of pre-amps can do this in real time, and some installation audio systems do it as part of pre-processing (e.g. compression, limiter, etc).

    Or you can build your own? It's actually really easy to make a A-frame standing desk.

    It took me 6 months to make the switch. My standing desk has two computers, 2 keyboards, and 3 screens, soon to be more. I have both systems set up for working on different parts of the same project. I work for an hour on one, walk to the o

    A simple `assert(p<pe);` in a debug build would have caught the issue. I think you could argue that ragel should include something like this by default.
