Swappable proprietaries are still better than not swappable at all. For my previous phone I managed to order an external charger and several replacement batteries.

Sorry for your loss. That's a sad reason to die!

Even a compromised lung is capable of fully oxygenating blood for everyday situations. One just has to compensate by breathing faster, or cycling that liquid more frequently.

Such devices already exist and are used in heart or lung surgery, as well as in intensive care and medical emergencies. However, the potential for complications is much higher since they extract from and return blood to the body.

Even if it turns out it cannot fully replace it, it could help reduce operation pressure and frequency of a conventional respirator.

Roughly speaking, an aircraft must fulfill a certain amount of economy (cheap, low cost to operate), safety, and performance. If you compromise on safety, you get something that is still suitable for the military. If you don't care abo

Things like these are sometimes done for experimental cancer therapies. Granted, the patients are going to die anyway, and the therapy has gone through most of the trials.

Nobody will offer it to you though. And if they don't even get it to work in an animal model, then for all intents and purposes it doesn't even exist.

The llama.cpp maintainers working on supporting Qwen3-next are also not enthused by LLM output. They had to go over everything and fix it up. https://github.com/ggml-org/llama.cpp/pull/16095#issuecommen...

At the risk of repeating myself: streams were simply never designed with error handling in mind. Aborting everything at the first error is just the most simplistic error handling strategy. Reactive streams frameworks should be preferred for

I bet you don't like how it looks when you put huge code blocks inside a lambda. Me neither. But that's an issue with coding style; it forces you to extract processing code into a method. I'd argue the opposite way - imperati

When you use lambdas you lose control over when and how often your code gets executed. Since checked exceptions are very often thrown by code that has side effects, I'd consider the friction to be a feature. > collecting all the thr

Spring has a special error handling strategy where the whole request is allowed to fail, punting error handling off to the caller. A lot of code that throws checked exceptions is simply dangerous to use with Java streams because the executi

Checked exceptions are for errors that are not possible to prevent. How else should the caller know which exceptions are really likely to happen? Modules absolutely achieved their primary goal: stopping libraries from accessing JDK internal

Those stashes (and things like caches) should use SoftReferences so the GC can drop them under memory pressure. That way no funny stuff needs to happen in catch blocks.

I agree with the classification of TA, but I disagree on the "vexing exceptions". Even if you get a `Result` that you can pattern match over, the error handling code looks exactly as ugly if you put it into a pattern match branch

You are not supposed to catch such exceptions in the first place, except at the very top level as a fallback to implement proper logging and to signal an unexpected internal error to the user. In Java, such exceptions are subclasses of Runt

That's try-catch. But you missed the point: you can't do anything about fatal exceptions such as an OutOfMemoryError.

Old Persian cuneiform was designed from scratch and is essentially an alphabet. It has almost nothing in common with Sumerian Cuneiform, which is what most people think of if they refer to "cuneiform".

What does that mean? A government agency can ask a company to do something. But unless there is legal force behind the order, it is nothing more than a request and can be ignored. In ambiguous cases the lawyers of each side will decide if t

What is an "argument from authority"?

A government agency can tell people whatever it wants, if it doesn't have a legal basis then it has no authority. Unless it doesn't respect the rule of law. It might and probably will follow up its orders with force, but that&#x27

Indeed, an opinion held by legal experts, as the title of the submission quite clearly expresses. And on the other hand there is a history of Apple refusing other government requests. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple
