Why would someone use this vs Rocket/BOOM? Is it compatible with cheaper FPGAs?

States cannot legally secede unilaterally, and there's a no chance in hell Congress would approve. Unless you're willing to form a militia against the US Army that surely would be sent in--which, ironically for California, is more

Never say never. My wallet was stolen from work a couple months back, but the city PD somehow found and mailed by driver's license back to me.

ElasticBeanstalk streamlines things greatly, and when it works everything is pretty nice. When it fails, though... for instance, just a few days ago, one of the containers failed with an OOM error. For some reason--still unclear--the ECS an

What difficulty did you encounter? I've had a pool running since ~2009, originally as 4x750GB, then 4x3TB in 2013, and I recall that the transition was excellent. As oofabz said, the trick is to enable "autoexpand", which can

Nobody is arguing for replacing expert tools with these beginner-optimized languages. Continuing the instrument metaphor, I'd say they're like recorders: being taught in elementary school won't make them ubiquitous in the pro

Aren't UBI proposals designed so that those who earn more than the yearly stipend from employment don't receive it?

Note that Rust, the language, is perfectly capable of handling memory allocation failures, it's just the standard library that makes the assumption. Embedded environments wouldn't use the standard library for numerous reasons anyw

Fundamentally, I take an economic perspective: the supply of any piece information is now effectively unbounded, so the price trend sharply to zero. That it hasn't is due to artificial market manipulations, which don't concern me.

Pattern matching is not just sugar for an if-elseif chain, since compilers will check for exhaustiveness. This is especially important when used with sum types (which are the primary motivator for this feature): data Thing = Foo

I get why cops gave him trouble, but why the hell would the gym care? It sounds like the best customer: hardly uses the amenities (thus contributing far less to wear/tear) while paying the same rate as anyone else.

Sorry about that, I definitely wrote the README with a Rust audience in mind. I posted this link to the subreddit for feedback, and really didn't expect someone to post it here.

Yep. Very first thing I do when setting up a work machine is enable full-disk encryption, both to protect company assets from theft, and protect any sensitive material from prying coworkers/management.

Is there a quick explanation of why the f.lux can't simply be put into the App Store just like any other? Why did they have to try the "side-loading" method at all?

I recall listening to a vinyl rip of Lady Gaga's first album, and found that "Pokerface" was much more enjoyable with the additional dynamic range. So I'm not sure if overcompression is necessary for newer songs, but rat

Well, supposedly he did write a human-checkable proof--it's just that the reviewer must be familiar with several of his novel ideas. Like any human-intended proof, there's an assumption of foreknowledge.

I've used Eclipse with the RustDT plugin to debug a project successfully. There's probably ways to make it work in Sublime/Vim/et. al, I just haven't put in the effort to figure it all out yet.

So your objection is to how certain users (notably not the core dev team) utilize "unsafe", now with the language itself. It seems like the easiest way to mitigate this is with better documentation; surely, those other languages&#

I was under the impression that while it may be against the spirit in which GPL2 was written, it was an oversight and the necessary changes were made to GPL3.

Rust, too! Edit: Btw, I disagree with how the article categorizes Rust in comparison to Haskell. It shows that Rust has std::ptr::null, but neglects the fact that Haskell has Foreign.Ptr.nullPtr. Either both should be "5 stars" or
