Nit: 'm' matches as well. I think it's those two only.

I looked up a depth to pressure calculator, at even 1300m, the pressure is 1892.67 psi. "psi" is pounds per square inch, and a human has ballpark 3000 square inches of surface area. So to get a (very) rough approximation, picture

> I don’t think I’ve ever seen a case where a Go function returned neither a value nor an error, or both a value and an error. That's kind of the point. The type system should be powerful enough to disallow those cases then. In prac

> But doesn't know how the return values will be used by the caller. What is perhaps lost in this is where Go says that values should always be useful? It doesn't matter how it will be used by the caller. If I'm writing a

This doesn't really make much sense. The producer knows what it's returning. In the _vastly_ common case, it's either returning an error or a success object, but the Go type system is unable to represent that. The caller tryi

Result is better because it actually encodes the correct situation. You either get a file or an error. Not neither, not both. Go's encodes instead "you may or may not have a file" and "you may or may not have an error&qu

Thanks! I did not even realize there were so many! I imagine it's a popular format due to how well it can go for comparatively little budget and planning. I'll have to track those down. Two hours per episode for Portugal's so

I did not know that Spectacle Island was real. It featured prominently in Zodiac, the old Neal Stephenson book, but sounded a bit wild to be a real thing.

What's your favorite versions? I've watched the UK and NZ ones (and I know the US one isn't worth it), but I haven't gotten into the non-English ones yet.

Does ROCm count as an attempt? They burned so many people by not supporting any of the cards anyone cares about.

From Reddit corporate's perspective, all of their free-labor mods disappearing is _not_ "a good time". Really shouldn't be anyone's idea of a good time.

In what sense is this white knighting? If anything it's approximately the opposite.

Yes, quite unusual.

The "fake" arrow keys are nice so you don't have to move your hands. They are pretty decently placed in dvorak though, so it's no issue.

The variables are all over the place though, why should the signal be strong?

Does the comparison even tell us that? There's more confounding variables than there is signal IMO.

Followed every rule perfectly? That sounds about right. That's really not that important though. But half of the US at least is actively hostile to doing anything to help anyone. Our society is broken and doomed.

> I don’t get it. How can social distancing NOT help during a pandemic? It mostly seems to be for the same reason that several other things didn't work: half the population doesn't do it and ruins it for everyone else.

It still might be worth trying though, if it can be done ethically. It's not a perfect test, but it's halfway decent?

Another way to put it: CO2 is fungible. If I put a ton in the air and take away a different ton, nobody cares that they're not the same exact CO2. If I shoot one person in the face and then prevent a different shooting, several people

It had a lot to do with my interest in computers as well. Acoustic couplers, war dialing, and basic cracking and phreaking were all _so_ cool in that movie, not to mention everything in and near the war room stuff.

Anyone vaguely near software development really should have a working understanding of copyright though.

These mostly appear to be office workers. And I think they get to choose what their complaints are, unless you're suggesting that the article invented that?
