I also was working with java professionally for many years, and I find it completely unbearable to write java without an IDE. For other languages, e.g. go, which i currently like, I don't use an IDE because I don't feel like I nee

That's a reader macro to make it quoted. What that means is 'don't try to evaluate this as a function call'. Basically it's a data list.

Same in Switzerland. If there is a specific reason for surveillance the employee must also be informed of upcoming surveillance and the consequences if something were to be found.

It's not just that the CPU is cheaper than the GPU. They also claim it's faster than the more expensive GPU. Meaning if you rent a box in the cloud for training it'll cost you less since you'll rent it for less time, and

Apprentices can be profitable. I was one and later had access to invoices we sent. Ok that company did some ... creative ... billing. But even without that I believe it's not too hard to break at least even. Doing low-priority work,

Yeah, this is why you either need to disable the android usb driver and use default linux ones (enabling which, broke the compile for the vendor kernel on my device) Or patch the android stuff to add HID support: https://github.

Very doable. I also want(ed) this. There are some old kernel patches on github that extend the android USB driver to also be able to register as an HID device. I also tried kicking the android driver and just using (iirc) usbfs or what is w

It's fairly trivial to patch an existing (open source) torrent client. As a hint for people wanting to do that, torrent clients often have infrastructure in place to limit upload speed for example. It's pretty easy to bend that co
