Blurring the line between internal and external discussion in this is silly. You should be free to speak up internally and having fear there is detrimental. But hanging internal disagreements out for the competition? Stupid. There's no

Did I claim otherwise in my post? The nuance is BS anyway. One is a subsidiary of the other, IIRC.

Mozilla people for some reason feel they can criticize their own company publicly . That just isn't done elsewhere. You criticize internally and form a front to the outside. Meanwhile, Mozilla employees cry for their own CEO to be fir

Only stupid decisions. Especially in hindsight.

There are regular tourism/business visitor visa's I'm sure. But those are more of a hassle compare to ESTA. Nobody from an ESTA country will do those if they're not immediately denied.

The nuance you're trying to invent is meaningless if you miss your flight and the conference.

Countries where VISA applications have a high failure rate aren't part of the ESTA program to begin with. Having a low rejection rate is a condition for being in the program.

I think you're on the slippery slope here that lead to thinking Itanium was a good idea.

Thermal output = power draw is correct though.

Anyone would. That's not the option on offer though.

Set up 11pt Consolas on a native Windows app and set up VSC side by side. It looks nothing alike. It's a years old Chrome bug. Wish they had a Chakra version of Elektron.

Chromium font rendering on Windows is terrible as it doesn't properly use the platform renderer and settings. However on Linux it does , so this sounds like a broken fontconfig setup, or a toolkit not getting the right hinting config.

I have no idea about Sublime Text but find-symbol for example is slow. Maybe they should take a good look at ripgrep.

She might have a non-compete agreement. In fact this thread makes it sound likely.

Taxing imports makes American goods comparatively cheaper so it is good for local businesses. (But makes them more expensive for consumers)

What's your definition of "games" and "gamer"? Based on "what I like", presumably?

Nintendo is not capable of competing in that area They can surely produce a capable console. After all, they partnered with NVIDIA. The question is whether it makes sense to go into this arms race, especially given that their traditional

People are saying "VACCINES CAN KILL", not "VACCINES CAUSE AUTISM", FYI. One is true based on honest scientific research. And headlining it that way in The Guardian would be just as grossly negligent as what they did.

Well he took out the Wii numbers, wouldn't have looked so much like a slide if he'd left them in. It's also missing their DS business which is owning.

Why do you think it's better than Sublime? Doesn't Sublime have those features mentioned?

In the case of SHA-3 it's particularly ironic that the desire to avoid a monoculture in designs led to a monoculture in designers. (The authors of AES had one of the few submissions that was very different from AES and this was a large

DSA also has much smaller signatures, which surely was a nice advantage. On top of that, DSA was limited to 1024 bit keys and 160 bit hashes until the standard was extended and the extension propagated to implementations again. RSA signatur

I believe you nailed it yes. Notably, computer games do look reasonably humanlike when they're even,for example when playing another equally strong computer. But once they can outcalculate the opponent this disappears. Compare this to

You can prune more effectively. Download a program like Leela and let it analyze some positions. You'll get very deep mainlines just like in chess.

Reliable low latency transmission of audio and video is also one of those things that looks easy unless you try to actually get it working in practice.
