Or we can restrict it to just the elderly and disabled, instead of letting every single incumbent hitch a ride. One of my favorite alternatives is to bring back regular tax reassessments, but owners can choose to cede excess property value

This does a great job of demonstrating how increasing acceleration decreases traffic. 2m/s/s is 5mph/s, and helps a lot: Cars in front get out of the way faster. Lazy acceleration, while more accurate to what I see on the roa

504/mo for 36mo plus 3k down is really about 590/mo. "Before savings"

GL specs are generally quite accurate, now that there are real conformance tests for implementations. They can feel imprecise though, as they tend to leave a bunch more as undefined, whereas d3d tends to be more strict, leaving fewer choic

I can imagine a cube in my head and rotate it around and such. It's a sort of voluntary daydream. I'm not literally overriding vision, but rather I can hold a limited imaginary scene in my head.

If you have two cars, she should really be more supportive of your interests and preferences.

Most brands do factory orders. It's not a niche thing. The problem these days is even the factory won't make MT in all configurations, and often stick is restricted to only the lower tier engine and/or trim levels.

It's still easy to get a factory order where available. I've done it twice now. Skip the dealer and have a middleman service deal with the bullshit. (I used Cartelligent once, and did it myself the other time, which was a mistake)

I thought it might, but didn't remember. That's reassuring! It was worrisome to see it left out.

Coarse Pixel Shading is a cool smarter-not-harder approach for filling high-dpi displays on lower-horsepower iGPUs. The section on it shows comparisons, and it does look useful, though it requires integration by applications. Adaptive Sync,

The best time to get rid of passwords was years ago, but the second best time is now. The lack of at least opt-in public/private keys is disheartening.

I agree there should be fines. It's something like negligent endangerment, to me. As for sweeping it under the rug, anonymous whistleblower bounties?

Shoreline, Evelyn, and Dana are the primary links to downtown from the north and south, with Shoreline and Dana/Evelyn via Whisman linking to Central. Shoreline is really close to Castro, but its capillary connections to Castro are pre

This is great. It's so important to try to push for improvements externally, rather than just sucking it up and implementing onerous workarounds. It doesn't always work out, but this sounds like a good and reasonable outcome this

Unless they raise prices and accept lower volume. A contraction of profit seems inevitable, but I don't expect insolvency, at least not for the whole field.

Good. No one else plays this deceptive game, cherry-picking individual costs of ownership. You can advertise (but not promise!) expected savings, but pretending this reduces the price of the car is deceptive.

"Please enter your password in this mutable github pages page." Eek. I have a real desire for a document firewall mode where nothing can enter or leave.

Just like JS clears CPU memory, webgl clears GPU memory before access.

My respect for Linus does not extend to his opinions on programing languages. I haven't found any of Linus's objections to C++ compelling. I strongly believe that a C++ kernel developed with the same care as Linux would be strictl

That the author didn't understand how to write robust C++ by 2012 (after 5 years) without constraining themselves unnecessarily to C is not a compelling reason to prefer C over C++. "Doctor it hurts when I do this." Well stop

You can either see this as "I can't afford to retire" or as "I've let my spending get out of control, and need to course-correct". If you ever hope to retire, you must reign in your lifestyle creep versus you

Is there an ethical approach to making drones better at killing people?

It only has to be as secure as password reset. Passwordless login is just password reset without a password, neatly removing the weak link in the chain.

That is a line that historically had no one in it. There was much wringing of hands over WebGL, but "access to raw GPU memory" never came up as a concern, and is not even the issue here! This exploit specifically only functions on

Compile time is absolutely dominated by c++ (and now rust) compilation and linking. I doubt build system language choice will ever bubble up to relevance, so why optimize for it?

Templates, auto, and type toys can give you some serious build-your-own syntactic sugar: https://repl.it/repls/PleasingLovingQueenslandheeler Pulling things out of tuples isn't great, though.

I would gladly take it if it only worked on one of the 300 days of clear skies I get a year. 90% of the way to true "self driving" is plenty to revolutionize things.

The note on the commonality of patch authors making changes after getting an r+ at Mozilla is a little misunderstood here. It's very common at Mozilla to grant "r+ with nits", which is to say "yes land this code, but mak
