An entirely new section to the shareholder meeting agenda: criminal exposure. I wonder if we would also have mandatory market rate buy-back of securities for when a shareholder can't find a buyer but also no longer wants to bear the r

As a native speaker I disagree with the unnecessarily narrow interpretation. It may be the simpler conclusion to reach but with the accompanying material it is obviously not the intent.

Right. And I think that's an unnecessarily narrow perspective to take.

I understand. However, in the climate of the nuclear arms race, I think that all projects having anything to do with nuclear physics were likely to be kept under tight wraps. The comment I replied to seems to be taking a snarky tone toward

I expect at the time the distinction was irrelevant. I also don't think it's necessary to be critical about the wording above. Perhaps "was related to nuclear weapons" reads better? But it's not exactly ambiguous,

I'd assume from the earlier meaning of "thesaurus" which comes from "treasury," or as it exists in my mind, treasure chest. > The meaning "encyclopedia filled with information" is from 1840, but it exis

You can think about it like the IP address in hex if you like: 0x01.0x01.0x01.0x01 becomes 0x01010101 which is 16,843,009. So the first 0x01 is 0x01000000 which is the familiar 16,777,216 which then gets the further "base 256 digits&q

Is the precomputation sufficiently resilient to cross-compilation where the system may be composed of significantly different versions than something mainstream like Debian might ship? I'm thinking of embedded targets built using the

While I'm not sure it runs afoul of the Show HN rules linked, it may given the referenced repository[1] isn't public. The linked repository from this post[2] and the YouTube video[3] might be sufficient. But I agree it's a l

I've wondered about this quite a bit and imagine there's got to be a "telephone" (the game of message distortion) like aspect where if some of the communication was explained, even a little push back might change the out

That's fair, sorry for my casual language in a technically nuanced discussion. I hadn't looked at this in quite a while, but it was good to review. Thanks for the prompting. https://github.com/bminor/glibc&#

My use of "blurry" is because you asserted a clear boundary between user and kernel space. While I agree that this boundary is well-defined, it is indeed "blurred" (made less clear) by the glibc function wrappers and vD

by opello 1y ago
That is indeed one of the more well defined boundaries in the system. Also worth understanding is that programs aren't generally invoking system calls directly, for example calling interrupt 0x80, glibc provides wrapper functions that

It seems too far to go to say that because a system library holds some implementation details that the responsibility doesn't lie with the program using them. There's all sorts of complex interdependent details that make those ki

The lucky 10,000 is a positive take on the situation. But the article using "real," which I think would connote to "legitimate" to most, seems a little more polarizing that sharing a discovery.

I still use it successfully, but there are a few annoyances with drag and drop in the panorama view. It isn't as nice as when it was integrated unfortunately.

... not that it's a zero sum situation as you've laid it out. It's reasonable to be critical of both details, but not to hold them in any sort of balance.

It seems like the comment you're replying to is likely referring to butter knives. But if your paring knives match your other flatware it seems like a pretty reasonable confusion.

The EYE Tech Zoe implant and the Willow Grain were similar but the Willow Grain was usable by the users while installed and the Zoe was generally only accessible after it had been extracted from the user after the user had died.

I agree with this take, aside from a plot nuance about all his memories, there was one base factual lie (paternity) that propagated through his memories. I also occasionally rewatch that episode to try to convince myself that the Willow Gr
