What's the use for a writable filesystem in network gear, that is detrimental if lost at power outage? Some sort of very important logging?

The problem I have with worktrees is when I need to switch branches to merge or something. If a work tree for any branch involved exists, git prevents me from switching to it. So, I have to go clone somewhere else, do whatever, then update

I think you misunderstand the obsessive, blissful, motivations of a nerd. :) I was like this when I was younger, where a goal like this would entirely consume me, regardless of practicality, and more of a "see if I can". Some of

I suspect the only technical alternative would be the extreme of "this is not your system at all" mode, and necessarily involve dedicated hardware, where you can boot your computer as a "game console". I also suspect thi

Neat anecdote, but it would be interesting to look at studies on how it impacts broader society when the majority of the population is exposed to this, and porn, starting pre-teen (see stats).

This is an incredible parental competence, awareness, and knowledge failure. If you know a child in public school, ask them about what other kids watch on their phones at school. It's a literal felony if you were to hand a kid a porno,

That works as long as there's a finish line. If you make a framework, or a set of libraries, it's easy to get pigeon holed into all new features/tangential work around those.

Imbalance of inhibitory and excitatory appears to be the definition/state of a seizure. Apparently, this even goes both directions, as there are also inhibitory seizures , leading to temporary paralysis! [1] [1] https://www

Sequoia are still limited in height by gravity, probably due to capillary pressures. [1] If they evolved to be segmented, they could probably do it. [1] https://www.sfgate.com/science/article/REDWOODS-How-tall-can.

This goes against all previous research/measurements for actually tall trees (looks like they only considered up to 80m) and the fact that there are exactly zeros trees in the world taller than 130 meters [1]. Wide capillaries at the

I think lmdb is mostly unusable, for many use cases. I switched to libmdbx, which fixes all the issues [2] I (and most sibling comments) ran into with lmdb. [1] https://github.com/Mithril-mine/libmdbx#improvements-beyon

You don't use Amazon, and that's ok, but it's usually very reliable. In my case, it wasn't even Amazon, it was UPS that caused the delay. The automated delay based refund trigger, that costs them losses in shipping, is a

I think Amazon is catching on. I had this happen last week, and after the 2 days late, Amazon sent an automated apology with the option to cancel if it didn't show up after the third day.

What do you see as malicious or reckless here, exactly? This seems to be a VERY low resolution, functionally anonymous, bit of info, probably related to protecting their IP from bad actors breaking the TOS. This looks like it's covered

I think that simplifies it a bit. You can't train without hardware, which is why the Chinese companies are illegally importing Nvidia cards [1]. [1] https://www.theinformation.com/articles/deepseek-using-banne...
