You can compare static typing in php to typescript or static typing in python. It's for correctness, not performance.

I think the fact that they used to dive but now can't kind of places most of the damage as recent. My link should be a direct link to the comment. The bottom of the comment is hidden by default, but half of it is visible (and you can u

How about this article [1] (translation at reddit [2]) about german divers who had "mild cases" (no hospitalization, recovered at home) and were found to have suffered permanent lung damage, so severe that they can't dive any

There is no "severe to you" as a dev in this sense. Severe to you is when your IDE is not working and you can't work on the priority tasks. The crash has no severity to you. It is either severe or not to the client. If you do

That was very informative for me, thanks!

I'm not sure how tolerated this is on HN, but I'm lazy to research background on this. Could you please explain what a /64 is and why it is significant in this regard?

I believe you can choose to be an exit relay or a middle relay. A middle relay only connects to other relays, it does not allow "outgoing" connections, i.e. you won't appear to be browsing child porn from the outside if that&

Do you have any recommended reading on how to do this? Or even just a name for it?

I recommend reading the blogpost to everyone. It's very interesting and very well written IMO, and its contents keep coming up in my thinking ever since I've read it (several months) so it's had quite an impact on me. I haven

Mozilla's reasoning is that these programs like to think of themselves as not malware. Configuring the user's computer is much easier to claim as "honest behavior" than patching or replacing executables.

Also, you don't even know what kind of tips you are going to get. I kind of understand that the site wants my info for whatever selfish reasons, but it really fails to present what I'm getting in exchange.

probably the glass was replaced but not the lcd, making the part "refurbished" and no longer "apple" (as part of it is now aftermarket)

The pilots are dead, how do you propose fixing their failures? Or do you mean we should also focus the standard checklists and procedures? Are we not doing that also? I think the article sufficiently tried to cover those as well.

Unfair conparison. Growing titanium bones is most likely unfeasible, if even possible. Producing Klotho is not infeasible, it is being done in our bodies. The question is the amount, which I assume should be already finetuned. That's w

If true that it enhances healthy people, I wonder why we didn't evolve to produce more of it? Why didn't mice? Maybe side effects? Maybe being too smart is an evolutional disadvantage on an individual level or in small groups? Ma

Yeah, but after the tree dies and while it decomposes, AFAIK, most of that carbon goes right back into the air. So replanting trees doesn't really have CO2-negative effect. Having more forest area keeps more carbon down as long as the

Is money more limiting than time though? Nine woman and a child analogy comes to mind.

Except that he doesn't say it is incorrect, he says that "it seems bizarre" to him that seemingly Michozuki's paper doesn't have any uses beyond proving the ABC conjuncture. The rest of this comment is just explaini

Well, what you call here "design issues" I would call "flaws of an imperfect solution". They are design issues similar to how CAP theorem is a "design issue" with dbms-s or how concentration of wealth is a &quo

Ok but the whole premise was that hydroelectric storage is infeasible in most places.

I just want to mention that the "recommendation systems" angle is quite unimportant here. This is a result in complexity theory, a resolution of the question "whether you actually need a quantum computer to sample the rows of

He says "seeming irrationality". Meaning something that is judged irrational by our logical system, which has limited capacity thus limited information. He says that, if you account for certain biases, the much higher capacity emo

Yeah that's what many people confuse. In pokemon go, AR, meaning 3d stuff rendered over the camera input, is not really essential to the game, and most people never even use it, as it drains the battery too much. On the other hand AR,

This one is quite a big quality of life improvement IMO. It used to be that I sometimes left my browser accidentally open on facebook, and people would get offended because I 'read' their messages and didn't respond.

I think the main point is that optane can put more memory within your budget, and for some use cases it's a semi-suitable replacement for ram
