For the sake of argument, let's assume that punishment has absolutely no effect on whether someone will commit a crime. Even so, there's still a benefit to imprisonment: it separates criminals from society for a period of time, du

Is it surprising that so many environments that use IEEE 754 floating point numbers obey IEEE 754 on equality? IEEE 754-2008 5.11: "Comparisons shall ignore the sign of zero (so +0 = −0)."

That's likely because Apple is doing the same thing but just lying to you about it. You can't uninstall stock apps because they came on a read-only system image that was signed by your device manufacturer.

"100-level science and mathematics" classes don't really qualify as college-level. They're basically remedial high school classes.

Yeah, except for the whole steam part of it, which includes the input stack. You can build far more of ChromeOS from open source than SteamOS.

This looks very similar to 1-Wire, which is for ultra-low power devices that communicate on and are powered by the same wire. The reason the pulse widths are different is that the falling edge of the pulse kicks off an oscillator-based time

You say "human-centric", but you really mean "what I want". Many more humans would be upset at being unable to recover their data if they forget their password than would be pleased by this.

At the same amperage, it's exactly twice as good, but if you're going to get a 220V outlet installed, you're also going to get a higher amperage circuit installed at the same time, so you can charge at 220V/50A instead

Those are NEON registers. v0.2d is the vector register v0, interpreted as two double words (i.e. two 64-bit elements). ARM's documentation for this kind of thing is fairly good if you can find it: https://developer.arm.com&#

Yes, it'll produce a brownout at the outlet, but it's highly unlikely that this will manifest as a brownout at any of the component voltages, because there are so many layers of filtering. That <120V goes through a switched-mod
