It also has Greenland which is just an autonomous region of Denmark, but not the Faroe Islands which is our other autonomous region. I guess Greenland is just more visible due to its size (both regions actually have about the same populatio

... because they just casted lParam into a pointer to DEV_BROADCAST_HDR a few lines above, which is the common part of the different structure it could point to. That's just doing inheritance the C way. What did they expect? A C++ clas

Maybe a more natural way to make the distinction is by looking at the average width of the body of water seperating the landmass relative to the area of the landmass. That is an island is a landmass that has an area (A) of at least A_min an

I went and checked now, and your timeline seems way off. According to https://trustedcomputinggroup.org/resource/tpm-library-speci... the first draft of TPM 2.0 was in 2013 not 2015, and the first "non-draft"

Look at the screenshots again. It states Specification version: 2.0. And the PC Health check app agrees that I have a TPM 2.0. And yes, I have Windows 11 installed I can't tell you why it seems to think that it is a valid TPM 2.0 modul

Intel PTT was introduced in some 4th generation CPUs in 2013, I don't know where people get 8th generation from. And yes, it does not support TPM 2.0. Luckily Windows 11 only actually requires TPM version 1.2 (even if Microsoft claims

How old is your PC? My 10 years old laptop has a TPM built into the CPU (Intel PTT), which Windows 11 is perfectly happy about once I figured out how to enable it in the boot options.

A bit of an aside I have been wondering about is what people called her in her own time. Her name was Augusta Ada King, and she was the Countess of Lovelace. Was it common back then to shorten the title into a last name, or is it only somet

I think the limit for discernible features when using an optical microscope is somewhere around 200nm. This would put the limit somewhere around the 250nm node size, which was used around 1993-1998.

That is Google's choice. They weren't allowed to give Google Maps as the only option. Rather than implementing a way for the user to choose which site to use for maps they decided they would rather remove the feature altogether.

In Denmark? I don't think they legally are allowed not to print my legal name. Would be weird if our banks couldn't handle our own alphabet.

Are we sure they don't actually validate against a more generic postal code field? Then again some countries have letters in their postcodes (the UK comes to mind), so that might be a problem anyways.

I have an 'æ' in my middle name (formally secondary first name because history reasons). Usually I just don't use it, but it's always funny when a payment form instructs me to write my full name exactly as written on my

Yes, it's easy bool ValidateName(string name) => true; (With the caveat that a name might not be representable in Unicode, in which case I dunno. Use an image format?)

And how should they know that? Do you expect people to read every single post on Hacker News? For me it's the first time I have heard LoRa being used to mean something else. Obviously new people are going to keep being confused for as

If every post has similarly confusing titles then why shouldn't they deserve the same comment? The obvious solution is for people to stop using confusing titles. Something as simple as putting (AI) at the end of the title would go a lo

Yes exactly. The AI crowd are the ones not arguing in good faith here. The title is very confusing as it stands right now.

Why is GP flagged? I was pretty confused about the title as well. This is the first time I have heard "LoRa" meaning anything else than the wireless protocol, and that meaning was further strengthened by talking about tuning. What

No, Jaynes posits it happened as recently as 3000 BC, and bases the hypothesis on evidence from sources that are far more recent than 70 kya (not that we have any literary sources that are 70 kya old)
