Similar to what gp mentioned, max latency. You can tune your consumers to burn through the queue and push messages, but when you have latency constraints e.g. a very tight deadline the first few messages in the queue might achieve it but no

Properly scaling queue consumers is a problem I've spent a lot of time on in the last few years. Working on a messaging platform with highly variable traffic, including close to zero during the night, means that capacity provisioning a

That's correct, while clean it'd be a mistake to classify it as "renewable". https://cs.stanford.edu/people/zjl/pdf/tide.pdf is a pretty accessible entry.

I read the book first and I've got the same impression as you, the movie felt lacking and certainly not as fruitful in fresh ideas as the book felt. I'm very surprised the post's author finds the book shallow (he uses "l

The (state-owned) power company owning the grid and much of the generation for the country has been pushing this change forward. The country has transitioned from almost pure hydro to wind and has an excess of this type of generation, espec

Thanks for sharing this. I've got a take that's a bit of a hot take, but experiencies like yours make more sure about it. I don't think _any_ of the flat-earthers actually believes it. They're just there for the attentio

I'm against it because nuclear waste. IMHO it's a false dichotomy to think that if I understand climate change to be an existential threat, then I must be in favour of nuclear. Other renewables combined with less energy usage coul

Losing is normal. Learning the moves is easy, learning to play not so much. Think of it as any non trivial card game. Two pieces of advice: 1. Play longer times. This happened to me when I started with 5+3. Play 15+10. 2. STUDY YOUR LOSSES.

The book 'first migrants', which I recommend, covers this topic in detail offering several hypotheses. In particular, the founder myth ran and runs strong in our (H. Sapiens) blood.

I'm like this, and many I know. I suspect the actual memorising comes when writing, creating the muscle memory. If not written, I can't ensure I'll remember.

The left wheel rotates at fixed speed, it's the source of the movement (connected to the source of power). The right wheel rotates according to the relative radii between them, the constant speed of the left wheel dictating its speed.

It is. It allows to search for function declarations with the regex '^[^( ]+[(]' (or similar) -- while more common in the past, many have adopted it and keep using it. Personally I've come to find it nice to read, particularl

I don't see how losing backwards compatibility would be a good thing per se . Even if the preprocessor were considered a problem (which is disputed), it could coexist with a new FFI system that could be implemented. Losing backwards c

C coder here (former pre-C++11 C++ as well). Another point to mention (which I think adds to the conclusion) is that by losing compatibility with the C preprocessor you'd lose compatibility with, well, C. This means breaking of both C+
