Please elaborate. What kind of key are you using? What are you booting? On which architecture / machine?

I researched this like a decade ago and my conclusion at the time was that Kanban and Scrum kind of work the opposite way. Kanban is a "pull" approach where you have some kind of big goal you need (e.g. a car at toyota) and then a

Maybe I'm just getting old and it's all nostalgia but I had exactly the same experiences during the 80s and 90s. I also thought web forums where a big step backwards when compared to usenet groups. In pre-internet times I loved re

I can speak German, English and Dutch (which are very close Germanic languages) and also understand a bit of French and Italian. I guess I could learn their basics relatively quickly if I tried hard enough. However, I actually need to learn

Quite a long time ago I worked at a company developing games for mobile phones in J2ME. The J2ME runtime had a lot of (different) quirks issues on different phones and the phones where also quite different. We used the C preprocessor a lot

What I don't understand is why the focus for stationary batteries is still on lithium. I don't really care about energy density (weight / volume) because I don't have to carry it around. Aren't there cheaper and saf

Very well said. I miss the early days of the internet. In addition: Event though the net was not very safe at the time (no/poor encryption, no much monitoring by officials etc.) it kind of felt differently. Many users where at least aw

str(x) converts the argument to a string. Since the argument is an integer, there won't be any leading zeroes. More problematic are negative values though.

Quote from the article: "The bytecode generated by SQLite is usually smaller than the corresponding AST coming out of the parser. During initial processing of SQL text (during the call to sqlite3_prepare() and similar) both the AST and

Thanks for the clarification. Luckily BNC connectors are rare nowadays. It happened at a friends house. I lost contact but I'm pretty sure he's still alive but maybe their house is still dangerous.

Happy memories. I started with just 1:1 multiplayer games using the serial port (GTA, Dogfight, Doom). GTA (or our serial port config) had horrible problems with de-synchronization. The game just went on but players where in completely diff

Usually I try to avoid cheats but I use them it in situations where I either get badly addicted or where I notice that I'm losing a lot of time with repetitive grinding

I had the same issue and my solution was: I modified the code of the game to add cheats (make my character super durable), compiled it myself and loaded the apk onto my phone. Then I finally finished the game and my addiction ended.

I don't think it's just the water content, it's also the surface area. Most processing we do (crushing, milling, blending, juicing, extruding, popping etc.) increases the surface area of the food and therefore make it faster

I believe in most cases processing means (by choice or accidentally) making faster digestible. Most processes kind of destroy the food (blending, crushing, popping, juicing, extruding) and increase it's surface area so in the digestive

From the title I misunderstood what it does. However, now I'm wondering if what I thought is was (don't ask my why I thought it) is possible: I have a PC that is able to run e.g. Mistral Instruct 7B Q4 inference with around 30 tok

On an intuitive level I love message queues. I like how they loosen the coupling between components and the amount of flexibility they provide. A few years ago I even built quite a large system production with RabbitMQ (a scheduling, monito

I believe the big 2016 bump is due to Trump. Does that have international impact? Since I'm German and still had daily news about his behavior I say yes. As far I can remember we never had so many news about any other US president. I

Would be nice to adapt it for tofu as well. It's a similar process.

I believe Space Station 14 is implemented using an ECS engine. It's open source but quite impressive regarding scale and features. It's also a multiplayer game which brings some extra questions to the usual ECS ambiguities.

The only way to break my addiction was to play through it. Due to skill and luck limitations I only got to somewhere in the last 3rd of the game, so I cloned the repo and modified the code so my characters where basically invincible from th
