Are you actually serious and would heat your house in winter to a temperature 5-15(!!) ℃ more¹ than you would cool it to during summer? I mean - it can be enjoyable for short periods, to warm up/cool off, but why would you do that for

You could create your own CA, limited to your domain and install it on the respective devices.

Nope. Today, tomorrow and for 6 more months is 825 days. As of September 1, 2020, it will be 398 days - a change people knew was coming for a long time.

If you're doing it from the machine where your CA is, and using secure transport, then it shouldn't be less secure than doing the CSR/Sign/Certificate dance. I mean, it would be nice, especially if you are distributing t

If you are going for compliance, don't forget ES is not a database - there are notable edge cases where it drops data.

Air resistance is proportional to speed squared, meaning (air resistance component of) energy per distance is ~ speed², and energy per second is ~ speed³. 45 km/h vs. 90 km/h is almost an 8-fold difference of power to sustain. Air

My router has busybox (ash), but not bash. Neither bash nor python seem to be preinstalled on BSDs.

Note that maximum size is defined as >=1514, with 50% of packets being >= 1024. It very well may be that ~45% of packets are >= 1400 bytes. The transfer graph is wrong - it shows packet count distribution, not size. Quick math says

Yes. But only the "AMS-IX traffic by packet size range" graph is wildly inaccurate. Ethernet frame overhead is per-packet and presumably right.

GP was talking about every request hitting the DB. A once in 10 min refresh should not be an issue.

by labawi 7y ago
The water is a fair point, but GP didn't exclude Sahara, middle east or other deserts, so it would not be proper to exclude Xinjiang or Mongolia.

Please use standard notation - 100m, or 100 metres. Meter is an SI standard unit, so using <number> m should be understandable to to almost everyone, or you can use the entire word. Is mts popular as an abbreviation in some cultures?

AFAICT dual-pivot quicksort is not a stable sort, so quadsort should fare better if actually need a stable sort.

C is only about 50 years old. I'd say it remains to be seen (not in our lifetime).

By adding an attribute I meant server side, not client-side if that's what you mean. If you defer (down)loading of images, and layout depends on unavailable size/aspect-ratio of an image, you get layout updates - same would happen

by labawi 7y ago
Instead of specifying how big your images are in html (or css), you are proposing the browser should magically guess how big your images are going to end up? Or should it not render anything until all your needless images are downloaded? Is

by labawi 7y ago
That's probably an effort to load a faster, maybe a leaner version for mobile/whatever. To actually prevent jumping (including on lean image load), I believe it would be more effective to simply set width and height.

I wouldn't call them overly strict. They are just inappropriate, bad or badly enforced. There are too many cases of companies selling harmful food/drugs/medicine, even knowingly, with the FDA dragging their feet or just doing
