It feels like the update at the top entirely invalidates the article. At least I don't see why pinning dependency versions at the source level would be necessary for reproducible builds.

The bug is real, but it isn't the compiler's.

Reducing the time a secret lingers in memory is at best a mitigation. Linux has MADV_DONTDUMP for the madvise system call to exclude certain pages from core dumps. I'm not sure if something like this could be available in golang, prefe

You probably have better luck by finding some standard antenna connection and attaching a proper 50 Ohm terminator to it.

FYI you don't necessarily have to throw away an otherwise good office chair if the gas spring is leaking. You can replace just the gas spring.

I think a table can be alright, there is only so much you can do. It could be fine tuned though to only require horizontal scrolling on the table and not the whole web page. Maybe anchor the first row and column if you want to be fancy.

Isn't there a blanket ban on the UK exporting meat and dairy products to the EU now? Or is there any legal path to certify UK dairy products to be sold in the EU?

Did food standards desync between the UK and EU considerably since Brexit? I doubt that loosening food standards happen in general, but I can imagine newer EU food standards that are not copied over to the UK.

I assume the UK does export some of these products outside the EU, so that would be even worse.

What seems that the fundamental problem is that the functions depend on global state that is not explicitly passed in (is the user logged in?). Maybe an explicit session parameter could work better here. You only have a session when the use

That's an interesting example, as white arrow/arrows on blue in circle also exists, which limits (or otherwise indicates) the directions you can continue. The one-way traffic sign does fit in, but most commonly you see it in situa

And then there is this no entry symbol, which makes no sense: https://imgur.com/a/oSV1Aen Reading the symbol it looks like a person prohibiting entry, crossed out. A double negative.

Just to nitpick further, white on blue does not mean "allowed". It means "mandated".

You need around 26 terms for x=10 if you do it without reduction and you want an accuratish result for double precision. You wouldn't evaluate the terms naively from left-to-right. x - x^3/3! + x^5/5! - ... = x * (1 - x^2

I would have expected to be a bug in the documentation? Why would they turn FMA off for standard compliant C mode, but not for standard compliant C++ mode? But the documentation does appear to be correct: https://godbolt.org/

Yeah, I can defeat it. It doesn't defend long shots very well. It's also generally better to try to return its shots immediately instead of juggling, so it can't position well for the return. If the opponent is close to the n

Turing-completeness has nothing to do with safety. XML parsing isn't Turing complete, AFAIK, yet external entity resolution is a problem. Postscript is Turing complete, but I think it can be properly sandboxed, it's a VM with no I

I think graph data structures are generally missing because they are not something that you would explicitly use most of the time. Sometimes graphs just emerge from existing data structures in an application. You might want to run generic g

I'm probably on the opposite end. I think the capabilities are overhyped, but the technology is still useful. The copyright and labor issues might be real, but I don't see them as AI issues.

Well, it's an example of a convex homogeneous body that does this. It's much easier if these are not requirements, just have a sphere with an off-center mass.

x86_64 macOS has tier 1 rust platform support, which I believe means that it's guaranteed that you get a crash on stack overflow and you can't evade stack protection in safe rust. It's not possible on all platforms, hence the
