To add: overhead for defer and for calling into C have been reduced pretty significantly with 1.8. Anything that does quite a bit of the latter may see a fair improvement in perf.

I think that's a little pedantic. The point he was making is that, conceptually speaking, the cloud is comprised of servers not unlike the servers you run yourself. The difference, obviously, is who runs them, the manner in which they&

Assuming Tesla parts start with "A" or no letter suffix, that actually doesn't seem too bad, in my experience. The Ford Focus I owned several years ago had 34 revisions made to the door handle assembly by the time I had t

There's an even more difficult playstyle called "ghosting" which 'requires' that the player not even alert a guard past a certain level, let alone knock them out. It's well worth a try if you've never give

But we do need more things to do while waiting for compilation to finish. In addition to making sandwiches, seeing movies, building pyramids, etc., I mean.

Interesting comment. I'm not sure Rust's safety guarantees are what many would consider merely an "implementation detail". Aren't the merits and caveats in any programming language (not with regard to its overall

I only notice the kind of "tabs are slow to open" behavior pretty randomly, and without knowing the state of the rest of my machine at those moments (is there something else pegging a few of my cores for some reason?) I can't

You've not explained how a header-only approach precludes "security, performance, handling of edge cases, memory leaks [presumably you mean the absence of] and reliability".

Multiple parts to a header-only library can be concatenated into a single header file for easier inclusion, however. Some single header-only libraries are actually built this way. I agree with you in principle though. A directory of header

And that monkey may actually be using the bananas it withholds from one group to do social good in a much more efficient manner for another group. Not to condone tax evasion or fraud — I condemn illegal tax evasion — but there are many inte

Just look at the Mac Pro, it used to be ATX based which means gamers would buy it to upgrade the video card to play more games. Did any significant number of users actually do that though? I do remember in the Power Mac G5 era that NVIDIA

Absolutely. One of my favorite performers (Daedelus) uses a monome for his live setup, and there's nothing on Earth like a Daedelus set. It would be exceedingly difficult (or essentially impossible) to specifically match or emulate wha

Again, though, the lack of user's truth or faith in a piece of software does not make the software itself worse. We can argue the merits of distrust and of the user's choice to distrust, but the software itself is the same.

I'm having a hard time understanding where this comment is coming from. I can understand if your exposure to DJs has been limited (I'm sure we've all seen performers who are just about useless at truly engaging crowds), but t

It could be done in an abusive way, certainly.

Nice service! I could see this being really useful for web scraping or for offloading compilation. (Or any relatively short computation, really.) I caught a bit of an awkward sentence on the FAQ though: "Unless specifically specified o

He was referring specifically to Android's use of the Linux kernel. He was not calling Android "Linux", though I think doing so would be fair in a general sense.

It is true that many consumers would benefit from such systems, but unfortunately, drumming up demand by trickling supply into the market is Nintendo's modus operandi.

By "flat ranges" you mean they bought approximately the same number of garments for each available size?

Fira Code is excellent. I find it hard to imagine I'll be using anything else in the next few years.

How would using USB 2.1 be cheaper than the standard Intel and Apple co-developed?

Should users quit running applications? Given a generally large amount of memory available (due to its low cost), and OS application paging, I'm not so sure. The only reason I ever quit a running application on any modern OS is due to

Congratulations on your first OSS project! It definitely seems I could use this.

Ugh, I feel you. I've trained myself not to tap on a result unless I've waited several seconds. Life improved immeasurably.

I suspect there's some bandwagonism at play in some of it, but I think the VS Code team has generally applied lessons learned from some of Atom's more obvious performance shortfalls (large file handling, for example, for which sup

Great answer to a common question. I've always liked the distinction between windows and processes in macOS, but many Windows users find it (understandably) odd — Windows power users sometimes feel that the mechanic robs them of contro

I agree, I think there's some confusion as to what "public domain" means in this context. This project is open source software, but not public domain software.

Is it really accurate to describe this as a "Vulkan implementation", or would it instead be considered a "Vulkan wrapper/translation layer"? It appears to be the latter: MoltenVK is an implementation of Vulkan that

A Tesla is not forced upon you, however. If you're wary of the terms, do not buy a Tesla car. Software has, by the way, always* been this way. I've been "buying software" for twenty years and I've never actually not
