I only selected one "yes" answer (the car), but still got 11%, so not sure what this may mean.

I'm with the parent comment, as I think the context is important here. If you think the emergency service vehicles violate the rule, how about a park maintenance vehicle or a park ranger vehicle? Would you say "no vehicles in the

@jart also made a writeup on porting pledge to Linux specifically in the cosmopolitan context: https://justine.lol/pledge/ .

Based on my reading it looks like the accuracy wasn't enough, so they switched it to a bit later time when hires timer was already available.

Not directly (or at least not yet), although Cosmopolitan already supports Windows natively; blink extends this support for Cosmopolitan and other x86-64-linux binaries to more platforms. In other words, you can build a cosmopolitan executa

For those not familiar with the project/name: Blink is a brand-new unprivileged userspace virtual machine that can emulate x86-64-linux binaries on any POSIX platform. It's basically a 220kb dependency-free static binary that impl

I've done something along these lines with a very simple DNS and DHCP server implementation as an Arduino library: https://github.com/pkulchenko/DHCPLite/ . It is fairly short and while I don't claim it b

I don't click on ads; why shouldn't I reconfigure my system to avoid them being presented to me? I don't consider this unethical at all; in fact one may argue that it's net positive for the advertiser, as I'm not wa

by paulclinger 4y ago
I find this logic strange, as I'm not obligated to watch the ads (so I use adblock), even though I know they pay for the service. By the same logic, someone may complain that I'm paying by credit card balance in full each month an

They seem to be taking this into account: We did no specific training for these exams. A minority of the problems in the exams were seen by the model during training; for each exam we run a variant with these questions removed and report th

It's because there is a cost associated with this insurance. It's not a bottomless pit of money, as FDIC pays out using the funds it collects from the participant banks and receives no funding from the government ( https:/&#x

Chase doesn't allow storing cash in them (other than collectible items) and I know that others banks don't allow either (most likely to limit their liability). I lived through Washington Mutual going through FDIC receivership back

I agree with the role of luck and yet it can't be the only explanation. After all, winning the lottery is pure luck, but buying the ticket isn't. People are taking risks (monetary, reputational, personal, opportunity, etc.) puttin

Agree; the ChatGPT answer is not correct, as the assignment is to match a word that starts with `dog` and ends with `cat`. You can make .* non-greedy by adding ? at the end, but it's not needed in this case, as the engine should backtr

I don't think they are using the session extension, as this project provides its own binary encoding, which wouldn't be needed if the session extension is used. It wouldn't affect random/date either, as the session exten

Indeed. Matt (the author of cr-sqlite) and I have discussed the differences and similarities in our approaches. cr-sqlite is based on triggers, which allows all the code to be encapsulated in the DB (although the network layer is still need

You can use it to configure the build mode: `build/bootstrap/make.com -j8 MODE=rel o/rel/blink/blink`; no MODE will build a default config. This is used across all cosmopolitan projects; for example, this is for red

It's possible that the judge already was considering changing their ruling (or was "on the fence" about it), but the question gave them a way to explain it (rather than saying "I changed my mind").

Even in the absence of strict tables, you can also add a CHECK constraint whenever limits are needed on the value types. Here is one example from a recent discussion in SQLite forum threads: `check(datetime(x, '+0 seconds') IS x)`

Not only that, but given the price tag, the organization itself will adjust its own processes to adapt even to a highly customizable SAP product, which may not be the case for smaller, cheaper, and better scoped other products.
