Consider a simple radar as capable of locating objects in 3D spherical coordinates- range, azimuth, and elevation. Radar is typically really good at measuring distance, but because of the physics of wavelengths and antennas, it needs a rela

I couldn’t tell, is __strict__ something they’ve implemented in house, or exists in CPython? I can’t find any references to it outside that article.

I use vim (neovim) for everything, but particularly for Python dev. The trio of Linux, tmux, and vim is a powerful combination for any language/framework IMO. My workflow recently has been CoC.nvim (coc-python plug-in) which lets me in

I agree. And the responses so far indicate either cynicism or justification. Neither is useful imho. Police _are_ overly militarized and overly aggressive. We should be able to have a conversation in a healthy democracy about appropriate ru

the converse is also true, occasionally. depending on the business model, some engineers are too comfortable with a slow, methodical process. often, just getting something to work, despite accrued tech debt, helps a team iterate toward a be

i will often read through my changes in the browser UI in a similar manner as my reviewers. more often than not, that change of perspective will highlight something silly i missed. i realize now that i could help my reviewers by first submi

those are fascinating, occasionally horrifying cross team examples you give. i suppose i’m spoiled to work in a small company where reviews are always local.

aside from old school spying, all sorts of soft power tactics: support or not a government measure with marginal support, connect people or not with resources in the home country, advocate or not for sales of defense products from home coun

The motive is to make it harder for US personnel to carry out foreign policy objectives in these nations. if a hostile foreign state can cause these symptoms without being detected, hence deniability, that’s a win for them. which is why EM

i’m saying it’s ok to be pragmatic and fully accept that you are Microsoft’s target demographic. they’re solving the annoying bits so you can focus on what’s important to you. but, that’s not the end of the story. there may likely be gains

this is naïve. the problems being addressed do exist, independent of whether this particular solution will work. that’s great that the status quo is working for you, but it’s silly to then assert that progress cannot be made.

Very cool! Fascinating to read and find soon many commonalities with the author. * Works in tmux, builds currently playing into status bar * As an engineer, prefers classical music Only suggestion, I might try to find a way to make the upda

Surprised to not find mentioned one of (neo)vim's main selling points for me - works in a terminal! GUIs, desktop apps are a complete non starter for me. Give me a well designed commercial, terminal-based editor ( with a vim backend of

I too agree with strength that is strong. Just yesterday I was googling how to get tree to respect my git ignore. The universe heard and responded with broot! But without first class support for vi navigation, be will end up replacing tree

This seems rather niche. Most real world applications don’t provide the luxury of knowing your desired response ahead of time. Also, consider implementation in an FPGA where there are decades worth of validated IP to select from vs. this.

But why do they have to use camelCase? I don't know why it bothers me so, but I see that in a language or a repo and immediately and irrationally despise it. Is it just me?

It's seems easy to dogpile on Boeing in this situation - there is likely even truth to narratives of under valuing engineering at Boeing, I should know. But the story of corporate greed and callous corner cutting is too easy and starts
