I was wondering how they'd handle the 2.5 seconds without landing, given that the engine plume is going to heat it back up again. Are the particles being released from a much higher point than the pictures suggest? Otherwise you'd

Probably just my lack of understanding of bpftrace, but can it easily be integrated into other tools instead of used interactively / in a script? It seems like this series of posts is about how they built a monitoring agent, so maybe t

Do you think there's an alternate approach to showing data that would be effective? I can definitely buy the idea that showing a bunch of fancy charts doesn't help most medical professionals, but I don't like the idea of givi

I think the term you're looking for might be "postdoc" (postdoctoral researcher)? I've seen "recent PhD" a few times as well, seems pretty clear.

I remember reading that Mars doesn't have a magnetic field like Earth's to protect it from solar wind, therefore the atmosphere mostly gets swept away. Is that not the more difficult problem here? This debate seems to center on ge

How do you swap out the container in docker-compose? Do you just have a service defined for each, and only start one of them?

For people wondering what this is useful for: I've been using this as a protocol for a project connecting a Raspberry Pi to a microcontroller project. Currently I'm prototyping using the serial transport, but at some point I will

What's the advantage of doing this over just making an experiment branch? A branch would be easier to find than a reverted commit somewhere in the mainline branch.

Does running an idle k3s cluster really require adding a heatsink to the rpi? I would have thought this would generate very little load, and a major temp increase might indicate a bug in k3s? Is there a bunch of cpu-intensive work an idle c

My impression after following him on there for a while: he still uses, and sees the platform as if it's the original version of Twitter from ~2006. Most of his tweets are written in a way that sound like a person writing in a public di

They're batching the requests into larger files on S3. The 1M refers to the number of HTTP requests hitting their server.

Synergy ( https://symless.com/synergy ) does exactly this, cross platform, and really effectively. You don't need to write your own using a Logitech driver - it works with any standard keyboard / mouse.

I'm not sure leaving out sort and dist keys is actually being fair to Redshift here. I get the argument that you're avoiding any "special tuning", but these are basic features that the docs and most guides will tell you

That's true regardless of the teaching technique though, isn't it? Having someone lecture at you because they assume your knowledge is lacking is the part that makes it condescending, IMO.

Does that mean you can mass-produce queens by separating them from the hive and continuing to feed them the jelly?

I noticed there's a go:noescape compiler directive that seems to provide an escape hatch for a lot of this unexpected compiler behaviour: https://golang.org/cmd/compile/#hdr-Compiler_Directives Does that actu

Why wouldn't you start with the cache? Isn't the consistent database only useful if you require it to be used, and don't fall back to a less consistent alternative?

I'm not a machine learning expert, but isn't this an easily solved problem? Similar to TF/IDF, where you mitigate common words by dividing by their overall frequency, you should be able to divide the weight of any particular

The most important reason I continue to use Pinboard is that it's the only service I'm confident won't be acquired and shut down within a week with no warning or no data export. (based on Maciej and his talks, blog posts, etc

That looks like what I'm looking for, thanks! Is there documentation of the format of those JSON logs? CSV would probably be a useful addition just for ease of ingestion into analysis tools and databases. Once I get a chance to test th

What does "a lot more versatility" mean? Just wondering what the advantages are. Or do you just mean that R Notebooks are specifically better than the R support in Jupyter?

It's incredible that people put up with how buggy these adblocker extensions are. Seriously, blocking an arbitrary URL with "ads" in the path? Can't they just stick to blocking domain regexes instead of actually breaking
