The question the court is asking is "why can't the drivers ?". Uber is claiming to be a third party here.

The way you have quoted this suggests it is being said by the author, whom you are disagreeing with. It's not: it's being said by someone else (in an issue filed against the repo), and the author also mostly disagrees.

I guess you are also supposed to figure out for yourself what private information of yours has been compromised, since they can't be bothered to make it explicit.

I also use Telegram because one of my friends was really stubborn. Like many here, I think it's a great service/client but probably has some security issues (although they are largely trade-offs). However, I don't agree that

Yes; that's my latter point - it could easily have been a bad technical choice. But that doesn't really validate the "big mess"-style criticism, which I have mostly found to be untrue.

I have noticed that people often use such criticisms against anything they aren't familiar with. If you can find an enthusiastic polyglot who says the same then it becomes a bit more believable. And - of course - the fact that it is so

I recently had an SSD failure and tried using Ubuntu 20.10 to fix my (heavily tweaked to get things mostly-working) older Ubuntu installation. After many hours fiddling with startup settings I still cannot get the live USB to boot to anythi

I would far rather we report with just the tiniest bit of nuance. They did distinct variations for a reason. Nobody is reporting all the other approaches that were less favourable.

Ok, I'll ask the obvious question: why did setting the branches option to master not already do this? EDIT https://www.jenkins.io/doc/pipeline/steps/workflow-scm-step/ makes it sounds like the branc

The claim was not that they can't reduce but that an 80% discount was too much to ask of people (and thus also their families). I don't think anyone at any pay level would be happy being paid 20% of similar roles. Perhaps the prob

The article's data is until 2018/2019. So, unlike some commentary suggests, this is before the pandemic/job cuts. Mozilla is for sure not in a good place though.

I wonder if ~10% of current F-150 sales are hybrids, or if they are really projecting for this model. I'd think people would consider going hybrid for the increased power outlet capacity, which could substantially alter the sales vs pr

That all seems well-intentioned and plausible in terms of how things should have been originally. However, 1) I can't help but think of all the problems that apply in general to specifying requirements (too vague, too constraining, too

I think that's a point which is bordering on religious - many people would debate trusting the compiler, especially over time and more complex situations. I'd certainly tend to agree with you in general but more for the reason tha

Right: for now, in certain situations, on the tested toolchain. Even ignoring those caveats, several commentators seem to have got the impression that this applies to the CPU.

Am I mis-reading this? The article keeps claiming there is no difference but the way I read it the compiler(s) are transforming mul/div to shifts. i.e. it very likely is faster on the hardware but it won't matter for this partic

I'm not sure what you mean. The absolute difference appears to have shrunk considerably vs old hardware, based on this single, unreliable example. Probably most people care more about that than the relative difference? It's not ex

It matters a lot for the absolute numbers. Apparently not for the relative ones (my measurements were super noisy though).

Interesting - I didn't know the site gave those numbers at all. Obviously they are not the ones in the main comparisons. Something seemed a bit weird with those numbers to me. My heavily loaded 2015 MacBook Air, which is also overheati

I don't know why people feel the need to downvote instead of clarify, but this page is about runtime speed. The article is about compilation speed.
