I don't see a definition or threshold there other than a tautology. Can you quote one into this thread? And it does seem a reasonable assumption that "harassment" would outnumber the other crimes mentioned. A brief glance at

Ehh ... it's indisputable that in $CURRENTYEAR that there are a lot of people whose only experience with Christianity is "things people said on the Internet". If many random readers won't understand a reference to &quo

A much better model still is a mixture . * Use multiple processes, but multiple tests per process as well. * Randomly split and order the tests on every run, to encourage catching flakiness. Print the seed for this as part of the test re

Much of the Python ecosystem blatantly violates semantic versioning. Most new tooling is designed to work around the bugs introduced by this.

Specifically, any generated makefile that refuses to take advantage of GNU make is necessarily going to be horrible. BSD make is ... viable I guess, but only really worth it if you're already in the ecosystem - and even then I can&#x27

Probably the most common is drunk-driving "accidents"; cases for those seem to vanish all the time.

Yes, that slightly improves ABI flexibility, though the fact that callers can still access fields limits that. An alternative is to make the only member `char opaque[16]` (IIRC some locale-related thing in glibc does this, also I think li

Some people are allergic to `main() { Foo foo; foo_init(&foo); }` Admittedly, sometimes for good reason - it locks in the ABI.

For the `Chunk` list, this isn't one of the cases where linked lists are harmful. Each use only touches the top of the stack, never iterates. Also, linked lists are much easier to make thread-safe. For the `LinkedPtr` list, the bad c

I mean the constant logs of the bases; you get to hard-code this in the algorithm. One interesting coincidence is that log₁₀(2) ~= log₂(10) - 3, thus the 83 ~= 78 below. If you use an 8-bit shift, depending on which direction you're go

Honestly? Most of the time you can use an approximation. At worst you allocate a single extra byte unless your integers are hundreds of bits long (I worked this out once but I forget where I left the details). Just multiply by the ratio of

Frankly, if "ban people for joke violence" is the price we have to pay for "ban people for real violence", I'll take it.

I thought for sure this was wrong, but when I actually checked the docs, it turns out that `RWF_NOWAIT` is only valid for `preadv2` not `pwritev2`. This should probably be fixed. For sockets, `MSG_DONTWAIT` works with both `recv ` and `send

If you serve insecurely, that means allowing downgrade attacks and malware injection for clients who are trying to do the right thing. At least if you use HTTP it is blatantly insecure.

"Making money" does not immediately invalidate fair use, but it does wave a big red flag in the courts' faces.

UMA is trivial if you have so little RAM that bandwidth doesn't matter. The original XBox (2001) had 64MB. I think my PC from 1998 had that.

As quick as I am to criticize the bizarre versions of Christianity, I do think you're in error to assume Pentecostalism is all or even mostly about "planned remarks passed off as spontaneous". Improv is a thing, and can be tr

Even on CPU, you should get the start of a response within 5 seconds for Q4 8B-or-smaller Llama models (proportionally faster for smaller ones), which then stream at several tokens per second. There are a lot of things to criticize about
