The problem persists, as Postgres and MariaDB use incompatible SQL dialects, right down to (imo) core concepts such as how to specify an automatically generated primary key.

Does anybody just use "regular, boring SQL" in practice though? All queries I have seen are loaded with regex and other non-standard extensions. Is there even a db vendor that offers full ANSII SQL support? Last I'd checked t

For sure, I love my ReMarkable, but I think of it as an expensive toy. It functions slightly worse than a notebook and pen for over 100x the cost. I suppose it would enable students to save their notes digitally, but at no point have I ever

No teacher (or parent) has ever managed to lock down a computer that was in my possession to a level where I wouldn't get distracted by it. You could shut the power off, and I'd still be poking around the hardware. I spent hundred

The title is "A CIA Analyst Shares Her Polygraph Experience" so it appears you are correct. I'd assumed incorrectly, so appreciate the discussion!

"Plank units are not physical limits on reality itself" is what I should have said. We can obviously have larger or smaller masses. The plank time is a limit on a measurement process, not the smallest unit of time.

by itishappy 8mo ago
Planck units are a mathematical convenience, not a physical limit. For instance, the Planck mass is on the order of an eyelash or grain of sand.

This destroys a baryon, an operation which is prohibited by the standard model.

The two views aren't necessarily in conflict. I don't appreciate Facebook's use of facial recognition technology, but they built it. I'm extremely disappointed they proceeded to use this technology to influence elections

I'd argue the DHS is incidental and the real story is "law enforcement deserves open access to social media feeds." In this light, the BBC's angle becomes much clearer.

Another comment mentioned ICE as well, so I've been looking into it, and imagine my surprise to learn that ICE (yes that one) has been working in this space since since the Obama admin. Huh. https://www.ice.gov/careers&

Fair question! Nope. I'm not endorsing it, and certainly don't know (or even suspect) it would solve this issue. I just recently installed NixOS and was surprised to see Windows mentioned on the downloads page, so looked into it a

I don't see estim mentioned on that website, but I do see a comparison chart with 4 other competitors with similar capabilities to the one you linked. What makes you think this is the one?

Waze used to indicate transient road hazards (e.g. stopped cars, pot holes). It's in Google Maps now too (took them long enough) and I assume others. Static hazards deserve physical signage and/or remediation.

Agreed! However, another way to look at that is that some people are willing to give up some space for a more convenient location. We're not running out of space quite yet.

Cars and their infrastructure take up a ton of space which could in theory be used by actual people.

Imagine watching Netflix out of the corner of your eye. You wouldn't notice those transitions at all. Your eyes and brain are mind bogglingly good at making stuff up. Do you know you have a big hole in your vision in each eye where the

Huh. I kinda like 'em. I've spent a good deal of time loitering in areas like this, of my own volition. Unsurprisingly, I tend to like emo music too. Maybe I'm a salmon, happiest fighting against the current.

Right! My terminology may be imprecise here, but I believe there is still an important distinction: The depth map stored for image processing is image metadata, meaning it calculates one depth per pixel from a single position in space. Note

Right, that's how culture works. There's no universal definition.
