The tenses in the headline and the article are very iffy. It’s more like there will be work to remove the GIL that will start after a particular PEP will be approved. The main reason we are still writing some stuff in java at our shop is be

There are other layouts, like BEAKL, MTGAP, Hands Down (Neu, Gold,Vibranium…). The current recommendation for Colemak on split kb is Colemak Mod DH, but i think the optimal layout depends on the ratio of code to prose that you use. There is

You’re confusing reality in the US with reality in general. The obesity epidemic (Gluttony ) is extreme in the US but not in other just as rich countries. I don’t know what you are referring to with the irresponsible Sloth indulging.

that's cool and all, but if they are already anchored, why not have winches that drag one side more than the other to position the arrays towards the sun, instead of propellers which I assume you would have to run continuously? or did

Or maybe for inland barges have some medium sized batteries, recharged at each lock, where you already have infrastructure, possibly with pantograph. There are already a bunch of these type of projects for buses with quick charge at multipl

MY only gripe with the M1 and M2 Air the lack of support for more than a single external screen. I feel like it's just a pure marketing play to only support more than one external screen on the 14" pro. They have Magsafe and two t

It sounds like you’re describing datomic. Though I don’t know if it has the required density.

Nobody can win this war. Ukraine’s military is not strong enough. Russia can’t win this war short of ethnic cleansing which would result in even stronger sanctions from the west. It’s a lose lose situation.

Depending on how DIY you want to be you can possibly source all the parts yourself to save on (third party) labor costs. From handwired to fabbing open source PCB to asking a third party to assemble one for you.

You could also try to repair all the bridges from the east coast to the west coast, but I'm not sure you'd cross the Appalachian trail with that little of a budget.

Can't read the article. How energy efficient and environmentally friendly is the hardening process compared to making steel? And is it a "in 20 years" thing again, like all new battery tech?

I’m so impressed by the screen but it’s too un-ergonomic for me that I’m sad instead. Would have been so nice if they had released 27” desktop screens to connect with these finally wonderful laptops. It’s not like a huge majority of office

Time-shifting. If you have a good way of storing it you could generate methane during the months when you have surplus solar power and use it in winter after you've depleted your batteries and the sun is not bright enough. Probably (ov
