Yeah I hate that people can't acknowledge that friction is sometimes intentional. Not everything -should- be easy. For example I designed a system at a previous company that used Shamir's Secret Sharing to protect a very very impo

I ended up teaching a friend to program using Kotlin. The downside was just telling them to just accept what the IDE wizard lays down as gospel first but the advantage was that running code from main() or tests was always a fully IDE integr

It's very hard to switch the mindset though. It becomes ingrained such that even when abundance is the new state of affairs scarcity still dominates the mind.

I doubt they would have been executed in this case but for heinous corporate crime China doesn't hesitate to apply the death penalty to executives: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/asia-pacific/8375638.stm

If anything this is a cautionary tale against running a database without reading the docs for how it should be configured. The PostgreSQL defaults are extremely conservative... for a system in 2010.

I think they should just delete that number and just show energy and energy remaining at destination. It will annoy some luddites but it's the only reasonable way to display the actually important information, i.e will I make it and ho

That is because the "range" and the "energy use for this route" are two different things. Really you -always- want the latter but people seem to think that it can be simplified to the former, it just can't. Spherica

Yes but this is likely still better than acquiring Spirits considerable debt load etc. The most likely competitor will actually be Frontier who also made an offer on Spirit. The big players generally have the allocations they are after alre

Don't be. This merger being blocked means JetBlue now won't acquire Spirit at an inflated valuation. Instead when the company is liquidated they can buy the airport slots they so direly need without all the extra debt -and- they g

I picked up Obsidian after reading a post by the CEO here. Good leadership is usually a sign of a good product and I wasn't disappointed.

I think around ~2017? However at that point it would have just been LA and SF, Postmates usually did staged rollout of stuff like that and I don't think we did significant alcohol deliveries until ~2019 or so.

by jpgvm 3y ago
nit: UberEats actually got alcohol delivery as part of the Postmates acquisition in 2020 IIRC. Disclaimer: Worked at Postmates at the time of acquisition, we definitely did alcohol.

As a Dune enjoyer in pretty much all it forms these two movies occupy two different categories for me. One one hand the Lynch adaption is the campy and fun movie I like to watch with my friends with a few beers, not pay a whole lot of atten

They should have found a role for Sting in the new one, that would have been epic. Everything Sting has touched recently has turned to gold, in particular the Arcane Season 1 soundtrack: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=liPu1

Are there benches on this vs say OpenSSL on Graviton and Apple M chips? I would be curious how big the difference is vs whatever NEON optimizations are in OpenSSL (and friends) already.

They aren't really created equally though. epoll and kqueue really are just edge-triggered select/poll. However IOCP and the new io_uring are different beasts, they are completion based APIs vs readiness based. To quickly explain

Maybe look at undervolting, you can do it from the AMD software pretty easily and for me it solved a bit of a coil whine problem under boost scenarios but YMMW it depends on sample to sample I think.

I hung out with a friend of mine in Shenzen who does this stuff all the time (and is Chinese not that is super important other than the fact being fluent helps a ton). Together we prototyped a product over a 2 month period, him handling the

If you can then buy "founders edition" cards. I have an RX 6700 XT from AMD themselves and it's great. The reason I went down that route was that the AIB partners all beef the cards coolers up and thus the dimensions. I build

Ideally you don't ever rely on CI specific automation tooling to actually accomplish anything and instead just use it as a dumb "not my dev machine" to execute workflows. You should always engineer things so you can fall back

Eh, all feelings no facts. Sorry but I just don't buy it. When you communicate this way it becomes apparent that the truth isn't on your side, or if it is then it's not what is most important to you. Stick to the facts guys.

Which in itself is ironic as the US government spends a large portion of it's current time accusing China of the same thing. As usual you should always expect projection when shade is being thrown. At least in China when greed kills pe

Oh wow! I guess I have a new rabbit hole to go down. Thanks for the info, I just presumed it would be MBE.

> epitaxially Is the keyword you are after. Basically this is a vapour deposition technique of some sort, almost certainly using MBE (molecular beam epitaxy) to grow the graphene on the silicon carbide substrate.

Probably should have been more specific that I was talking about the API styles rather than the runtime. Namely callbacks and CSP which you mentioned but also rx which probably wasn't that popular outside of JVM land but still haunts m

You should always configure Bazel this way, i.e `remotejdk`. This helps with portability between machines for one but also helps you be ready for things like Remote Build Execution which is where Bazel really has an advantage over other bui
