As a Frenchman in Dublin, Ireland, even I could hear a distinct accent difference between people from the north and the south banks of the river. Now I wonder if the same could be true of Paris and I'm just blind to it because it'

I dread the companies that will mandate this, no local environment… (and I know, GCP and Azure had this for quite some time now)

By the way, does someone knows where RISC-V stands regarding this ?

"Trois-Rivières" does sound French, but it also totally sounds "rum", not wine ;)

Not to be too controversial, but that last part only works if you believe there is a god or some sort of cosmic justice. Those of us who don't would like to explore alternative solutions...

I'm quite surprised of not seeing FP Complete in the list of sponsors. Anybody knows why is that ?

Sometimes you have not-great connection even deep in the city. I’m in a city touching Paris right now, 60k persons on a 1.5 by 1.5km square, one of the densest part of France. Well I have a shit ADSL (not VDSL !) connection, despite everyon

If that happens, it’ll be so far from human intelligence, and thus probably terrifying !

What I don’t understand is, how did that not completely nullify the security promises of SecureBoot, rendering the whole exercise pointless in the end ?

They also ban hires from France FWIW, but that's because they wouldn't touch our labour code with a 10-foot pole haha.

Thanks for telling. It's heartwarming to hear a story of competency, problems solved, and efficiency for once.

And bingo, that's exactly what happened (seeing RPi Foundation's answer). Sigh, what a world...

Wow, Rust being used in something as respected as cURL is a big endorsment !

To be fair the real problem is not mandatory TLS, it’s mandatory WebPKI certs: self-signed certs are not a problem in a local docker container, and is not worse than unencrypted.

> or put another way, how long it takes for a quantum event to affect whatever is in the adjacent point one Planck length away. Said like that, it reeeeeaaallly makes you think "we live in a simulation", doesn't it ^^ ?

Looks interesting, I did'nt know Purism did hardware tokens, so thanks. The integration with the TPM, disk encryption and login in their machines looks amazing ! No FIDO2 though :(. Maybe in the future.

Is there really thermal concerns for wind turbine blades ? These things are literally aircooled by the wind, aren't they ?

Paris' business district, "La Défense", is an excellent exemple of just that :) It's one giant "slate" constructed above the roads, between the skyscrappers. You don't see the cars and it's a nice pla

Note that you can have linear types (which is what gives you what you're talking about) in managed languages. You can have them as an extension in Haskell for exemple. Rust is the only mainstream-ish language to really use them, though

Gee, you're the first in the whole thread to have actual arguments instead of "B-B-But, you're wrong, I can tell because school told me !", thank you for that (and making me reconsider my position) !

Except Fractionnal Reserve. It kinda throws off the idea, how do they do then ? Let's see, when they lend money they don't have (which is what it is) they increase the number on your account, that is they create a big liability fo
