Same here: I pretty much look at where they worked before and what they did there. If I think that fills the requirements then we'll have a chat. Anything other than that half a page of information is just noise.

God yes. As a .net developer, it's extremely rare for a day to go by where I don't put them to use (via linq). They get so much stuff done.

Interesting, do you have a source for that? I'd love to read it. I'm interested because my experience with that differs strongly (though it's with shrooms, not LSD): while tripping on low doses I was a god* at guitar hero, si

The halting problem's existence means that there's no input validation that is guaranteed to work absolutely 100% of the time though, for sufficiently large inputs.

Can you provide your definition of non-recoverable? An extreme example: someone could tear down the phone down to every single last nanometer-scale transistor and polymer, fix the problem and reassemble it; that would make it recoverable fr

What if you can reprogram an eeprom to make it work, would you consider it bricked? You're not replacing any hardware and are fixing only software. At the end of the day language is (for all pragmatic purposes) finite but possible stat

But that's unrelated to how tightly coupled the app is with the OS, but rather how ungracefully the driver fails. No matter how "far away" the app is from the gpu, at some point in the pipeline whatever data is being received

It's ok to criticize them heavily: they're multi-billion dollar companies, you're the client and "As a user I want to use my phone to receive calls" is one of the most essential use cases.

Who cares about having done "anything"? I'll be dead anyway. What matters is that at 79 I've spent as much time as possible having fun by doing activities I find to be fun.

That gives you an absolute time result, not a practical one. Using that methodology the calculator wouldn't be able to tell whether something is in one month or not.

IPC varies according to the specific task but Ryzen 1xxx and 2xxx have always had IPC on average comparable to Broadwell CPUs (excluding AVX workloads). So intel has had a slight lead there from Skylake onwards. According to what we're

Some also have active aerodynamic braking, sports tyres have softer compounds with more grip which results in better braking and usually larger engines also provide more engine breaking.
