I live in the US and can't change my thermostat, so I don't think that's it. I'm sure I could feel the difference if i split myself between two rooms with one degree difference. I just don't think this is a useful g

Russia, canada, sweden, norway, finland, us... probably missing a few. Edit: mongolia too, I think. curiously, nothing in the southern hemisphere?

> Fahrenheit was designed with humans in mind If there was a design, it's not clear what the intent was. It seems about twice as precise as it needs to be (i certainly can't perceive 1F°—for all intents and purposes, 70 feels a

I agree. Also, emotional regulation is a thing—feeling an initial flash of anger is one thing, but allowing yourself to be consumed by it is another. I think I have pretty good emotional control of my anger, I rarely lose my temper at peopl

Black-market food sales are not crazy. Once or twice a year you'll hear about a truck heist. A full truck of food is worth on the order of tens or even hundreds of thousands of dollars, depending on the haul, and is worth the risk even

Assuming the client is an italian company, as would make sense in this thread, they would issue a court order compelling the corporation to comply with domestic law or get fined (or worse, idk, this is all speculative). Presumably the ask w

Presumably italian courts could seize payments made by italian clients of cloudflare, yes? Even if the account is located well outside of italy, the owners can be compelled by legal means. (To some degree of effectiveness, to be sure. But I

Depends on the crime. They aren't exactly fungible acts. Furthermore the state isn't exactly obligated to manage society, even if this has occurred in various forms throughout history. Many of our laws weren't exactly written

I agree generally, but I was under the impression they had explicitly committed to ads over other revenue forms much earlier. Importantly, there was a point in Google's history where they weren't committed to this, and the interne

Given the fact that I think of myself roughly like a string lookup service, i think there are much stronger places to argue for the incapacity of LLMs than deferring to the ill-defined and generally-inapplicable "understand".

Whatever the difference is, it's super noticeable. I gave mine away last year and I regret it daily—it was the perfect travel laptop. I consider the air line dead, tbh—they just lost the magic when they made them bigger and they'r

Presumably workstations are not just wandering around outside. Unless you're breaking into peoples' homes and offices i wouldn't expect to see much.

I don't quite understand the point of litigating businesses in civil court if existential threats are excluded from judgement. What is the reasoning behind a fine being sufficient to incentivize following the law when you can make so m

X86 also has little to do with modern computing architecture. That's just the ISA; it's not going to help you solve pipelining or cache issues inherent to the data flow. Wishing x86 on students is sincerely such a sadistic act. Ju

GNU is free to adopt better tools than C/C++. I adore gnu but I refuse to support blatant and obstinant idiocy. Using the license to extort people into supporting C/C++ is just scummy behavior. What the fuck were you doing the las

How on earth does zig resolve types before macros? Must be some ~~nuts~~ novel order of evaluation to get that behavior. How is this intended to function? Are there multiple layers of macros? Do you have to declare said level or is it deriv
