I don't get why you won't just use Ubuntu or dual boot. Why WSL?

Basic question: why are all these blocks at the DNS level? If I want to block users of my network from accessing website X, why would I not block it at the IP level (level 3) by blocking all packets to all IP address that other DNS provider

Pretty much. I can't remember the last time I opened Netflix and didn't struggle to find something to watch. That said, I think more and more people are realizing this so I'm hopeful things would improve. For example, one of

You don't even need the /s I think. They travel towards a far away point from the player but near treasure areas, because of their high navmesh density, all path lead in one direction.

Think of it this way: web browsers are ALLOWING oauth in the first place. Oauth only works when, when a user has to login, they do so in the oauth provider independently - so you need some sort of common dependency that works across all pla

Why can't we just switch to TAI for computers and anything electronic everywhere and just use UTC for user visible timestamps?

I would say that testing only the public contract is generally very helpful. When the logic gets super complex, I would think that a good comprise is to modularize your code - and test the public API of each module. A good heuristic is to s

Sry, the space complexity isn't improved, you save capacity 32 2 bits though.

(answering myself) Nope, they don't. They just need to keep a list of free indices when the cache is not full. Upon eviction you reuse the deleted element's index. This way, you store about O(capacity)*32bits for index in the wors

If they track indices, how would they index new elements upon deletion of old ones? They need to maintain a hashset of free indices?

You gotta balance. Don't use a password manager for you key accounts - use it for all the rest that you sign up for.

This is such a sad take - "move fast and break things" becomes a bad approach when you are breaking bones. It's always a risk reward tradeoff and in this case it's up to Tesla to demonstrate that the risk is manageable.
