This - precisely. I live on a Mac all day every day. Does everything I want, exactly how I want it, and makes me so much more productive than if I had to fight with Linux all day long.

We're arguing over made up numbers here.

I love the direct admission that one lives in a bubble.

Most tech companies are not FAANG that pay above 150k. Most tech companies don't even pay that much for any IC.

I get the overall point you're trying to make, but for the person who was going to be that #5 shooting and gets to live instead, that's a positive outcome for that person at least. Overall there's certainly a larger discussio

Yeah, I would agree with that. It definitely demonstrated that gaming is possible even under Rosetta, which is an accomplishment. Watching some other stuff from them this morning, it seems like they're passing the metal calls directl

Yeah, did you notice they also ran it at 1080p and it really didn't look all that great? I was actually a bit surprised they would break that kind of a demo out at WWDC -- I've seen that game not running in emulation and it was

Why would that surprise you, given the comment? The desire is to make it better, using it in spite of its issues is a way to do that. More users = more inertia to make it better, more resources for reporting issues, etc. I personally use

cross compiles? Or emulates x86-64?

Yeah, but that demo was running under emulation through rosetta 2...

I just did it, cpu did ramp up, but dropped right back to normal as soon as I closed the calculator. odd.

You have a hardware problem.

Uncommon? Yes. Very few people run Linux as a their primary OS.

They've had it deployed worldwide on ARM -- every iPhone and iPad runs it on an ARM chip.

Still one of the best games ever released. The gameplay is clunky now in comparison to modern gaming, but the story is still one of the most compelling in the field. Agree with the above -- would love to see it remade using modern engine.

Noticed yesterday the NEETS modules were posted, and it seems there are a few of us old Navy techs on the board. This is the story of the beginnings of Navy computing -- it's also indirectly a history of the Data Systems Technician and

LOL, the constant AT/ET rivalry.

Oh, nobody would be repairing flat screen monitors (though I replaced CRTs while I was in), but get into radars and fire control systems and servos and such and those definitely get repaired onboard. When the choice is replace a 50 cent re

Navy CVNs have micro miniature repair shops onboard, and no Depot level repairable leaves the ship without screening by them to see if they can repair it. They have a significant incentive to do so, as the money they save is something they

Ah but they did! The Data Systems rate covered the digital age up into the late 1990s (there's a series of books for them too -- I was able to find one of them in public view at least[0]). The DS rate did everything from gate level t

c++11! Really it's just a matter of actually doing it. I read books, I studied, I "knew" how they worked, but until I wrote a linked list from scratch and actually used it for a while I really didn't understand it.

That's the maximum with all sentencing enhancements and such. It would be very rare for someone to get the maximum, there's a whole stack of formulas on how actual sentences get calculated, and most of them don't add up to s

If you're using malloc/free, you're in a world with no gc. You are responsible for memory management. If you're talking about runtimes, and lower level work -- in the malloc/free world of C/C++ there isn'

You're confused about criminal and civil code, making a mistake in such as you claim is a civil, not criminal violation. So don't make up stories about things you don't understand because you need to be a crybaby on the inter

You “thanked him for his help” at the same time as calling him a criminal. No, it’s not generally criminal to make a mistake, and you’re assuming everything else you’ve written.

by jki275 6y ago
So a person at the company offers to help you, and your response is to call him a criminal while he's trying to help you? Come one now. Don't be absurd. It's very likely there's a mistake in a database somewhere that n

The problem is that whIle C++ has problems, all languages have problems and C++ has the most going for it in terms of being fast and easy to write. C++11 is a really good language. Also there are tons of libraries and things people have alr
