Embedded high-integrity systems have traditioanlly used this kind of cycle. It's simple to reason about and analyse. You can make assertions about worst case execution time and memory useage and you know for a fact what the order of ex

What are the advantages of using FastMail's android app over a normal mail client? I'm thinking of moving to Fastmail from Gmail.

Blimey, I remember seeing that covered on Tomorrow's World when it was being built. It seemed like an interesting idea at the time.

Oh god, the Disney+ app is a complete dumpster fire. There is a fix for the Disney+ pause issue: Got to Settings -> Display -> Sounds -> Audio -> Dolby Digital Output and turn it off. Obviously that's crap if you want Dolby

I wonder ow many people cancelled their credit cards before they were told this was some PR idiot's idea of a "joke". You've got to wonder how people come up with ideas as clearly braindead as this.

I find Ars Technica seems to mostly strike this balance reasonably well in their comments. It can frequently get heated without actually descending into Reddit levels. Their moderation appearts to do a reasonable job.

As I pointed out in another thread about these vehicals, the USPS still operates mule trains , hovercraft and helicopters for some deliveries. That's the most extreme examples, and I imagine there are many journeys that are somewhere

Absolutely, but that was kind of my point. A lot of recruiters I've encountered are like talking to a markov chain trained from some job ads. It sounds right if you don't actually know what the words mean.

I had a recruiter say "XML and UML are basically the same, right?". There's almost a dangerous level of knowledge among some recruiters where they think they know enough to do crap like this.

That's why I always take multiple copies of my CV with me to any interview that's arranged through a recruiter and give the interviewer one at the beginning of the interview. I once had a recruiter do the opposite to yours and rem

I keep seeing people say that Impossible tastes better, bit Beyond keeps snagging big deals like this and it makes me wonder if they have either a price or supply-chain advantage.

Sounds like that could be fun to try an enforce.

Naive bitcoiner here. So what's the deal here? Would this essentially just require everyone to collectively agree that he owned the coins?

I've definitely heard stories from old pilots of blacking out and coming too while out of control, and then having to wrestle control back while coming round. I wouldn't be at all surprised if many more never recovered in time. I

It pretty much is the case. Part of it is that predictability is a desirable feature in these systems, but also that problems like the one described in the article you don't really need things like ML. The majority of control problems

As always I feel rather behind the times with crypto. What are the third generation ones? Does etherium count as second gen?

Covid. There have been significantly fewer flights than usual over the last year. The argument is that pilots and ground crew are less busy, with bigger gaps between work, the result being that they are "rusty" for want of a bette

There is a particularly fascinating episode of timeteam where it became apparent that the whole thing had been a con by the owner of the land. Instead of just canning the episode they decided to carry on, because the process of working out

I only keep half an eye on bitcoin, so I'm a bit out of the loop. Was there some thing (or things) that happend in October/November that started the most recent growth in price? It seems to have bounced around $5-10k for over a ye

This looks really lovely, the design is great. I'm still disappointed about the Vega+ handheld debacle. I didn't fund it, so I didn't lose anything, but I really wanted to get one when they were ready.

That has definitely been my problem in the past. I'm having trouble with it again as we're having to homeschool, so I'm spending more evenings working than I would normally. I barely get any real downtime and my sleep is dist

You need to leave the tinkering, or at least ring-fence when you do it and make sure it doesn't eat into quality family time, or just proper down time. When you say you are fighting fires outside of wrok hours, is that as part of an on

Likewise. I did one at Hursley in 2000 and had to go down there when one of the Linux boxes would freeze up during performance testing and would need a physical reboot. So loud down in that basement.

I've no idea why you were being downvoted, I think that there will be some lingering habits that may take a while to dissipate, but I think a lot of people are depesperate to get back to something resembling normality. Frankly as soon

I'm not sure this was contrary to what the parent comment says. Back in April the newspapers and other media were regularly using photographs that made crowds and beaches look much more densly packed than they were. This was being poin

Yeah. I definitely want to get an electric at some point, but at the moment it's not practical for us (mostly the lack of off-street parking where we live). If we could charge up at home I think we'd only ever need to charge on ro

That's acatually good to know. As I mentioned in another comment, faffing around with charging network accounts is one of the more minor issues that puts me off an electric car at the moment. (We don't have off-street parking, tha

This is one of the more minor issues that puts me off getting an electric car at the moment. Why do I have to sign up for an account and download an app to charge my car? I can see the app being useful for being alerted when it's done,
