numpy (which is inspired by Matlab which is inspired by APL) does indeed have a count_nonzero function, which is intended to be used in situations like this. Unfortunately, it (like most of numpy) doesn't work with generators, just arr

That is a reasonable design decision for a small fleet of test vehicles. It is not reasonable for a large fleet of production vehicles. Causing massive traffic disruptions is a safety hazard in itself, and these companies should not be allo

While Red Hat may have started Fedora, and does draw from it when building RHEL, it is a community-led distribution through and through. At this point boycotting Fedora because you don't want to support Red Hat is about as sensible as

Virgin Galactic prices will likely never go down. They had to spend far more money than expected to scale up from SS1 to passenger flights. They have around 600 reservations at $200K, and it is questionable whether they can break even provi

While we don't have hard numbers, reasonable estimates of these suborbital launches by environmentalists like [1], put them at around 10 to 20 metric tons of CO2 per passenger per launch. The average driver in the US generates about 5

That reads like an attempt at a refutation that is actually a confirmation: > The page itself isn’t likely to rank well. Removing it might mean if you have a massive site that we’re better able to crawl other content on the site. But it

For the unsigned CoD sure, but otherwise UPS has no way of knowing what packages are legitimate and which are not. Amazon is more culpable because they can track the return packing slips back to a seller, and have been notified of the issue

Not really a fair comparison since those USPS examples are all "extra postage" stamps that you only use if you have oversized letters or are trying to use up old stamps. The equivalent Royal Mail stamps are even less imaginative -

TCO is definitely one of the issues I considered. At the time I purchased my Chevy Bolt I calculated that the savings on fuel would roughly cancel out the difference in purchase price compared to a Honda Fit, given relative electricity and

NASA has already awarded all the ISS crew flights up through it's scheduled retirement in 2030. Boeing is contracted for 6 flights, and SpaceX for 14 (including the 6 it has already flown). NASA hasn't published the milestone paym

Yes, the Commercial Crew funding was spread out over more years than NASA wanted due to insufficient budget from Congress, which delayed both SpaceX and Boeing. But Boeing has had 3 more years of delays on top of that due to bad engineerin

That wasn't the NASA Administrator, Bill Nelson. It was Jim Free, Associate Administrator for Exploration Systems Development[1]. Nelson has been a surprisingly strong supporter of fixed-price contracts, given his background. [1] http

From what I understand this would have to be built into the compositor, as it is the only process that knows the positions of all the windows.

There is zero novel research here, and the entire purpose of the 1.2 million dollar grant was research. All the value you are mentioning is related to bringing a product to market, which is something that the grant did not require and unive

That is a good point, however I've not heard of too many cases where organizations intentionally skip RHEL releases. Systems that are being actively developed do regularly upgrade through each RHEL release, and the 10 year support just

Flaky drivers. KVM induced unresponsiveness is pretty much the only reason I ever have to hardboot my computers. Also, even if the drivers are solid, they take longer to renegotiate with a monitor that was removed and plugged back in compar

Man it's a bad season for small form factor computers. I have four small home computers that are all NUC or PC-engine depending on needs, and now both are discontinued. The NUCs were difficult to justify on price alone, but whenever I

Yeah, that's not an unreasonable price. Just ticking off the features (which doesn't tell the whole story) Gandi's email service provides something between fastmail's $3 and $5 plans, and similar to protonmail's $3.

By that logic, any permission is justifiable because it all helps "personalizing content".

Is it just coincidence that all the builds in the "after" screenshot for the pipeline lists are MR builds, or have the details of whether a build is for a tag, branch or MR been removed? That is the main thing I look at when skimm

The "Detailed CPU time" setting in htop doesn't show the time the CPU is waiting on memory, it is just traditional I/O (disk, network, etc).

I wouldn't consider 1998 a peak. There was a local maxima in 1993, before the September that never ended. Then the rest of the 90's were exciting because of the rapid growth, but the actual state of things at the time was pretty m

That strategy didn't work well for the submitter. Steam is rather stingy in allowing resubmissions, so the better strategy is to make your best effort to comply with the terms on the first try.

With DLSS Steam isn't hosting and distributing AI generated content, Nvidia is distributing it with their drivers. So any liability regarding the source of the training datasets falls on Nvidia, and there is no reason for Steam to get

This is simply not true. The Obama administration passed new rules in 2015, but the courts issued an injunction and they never took force. Then the Trump administration then passed new rules in 2020, which were overturned by the courts the

This system is also intended to detect other accidents besides car crashes. I would argue that those other types of accidents are more important as they are more likely to occur in private and less likely to be observed and reported by othe

I'm from the US, but have been very happy with etymotic brand earplugs. They have inexpensive ($15 USD) standard designs as well as custom-fit. Either sound much better than foam plugs.
