Performances at my local theatre are banned. The crowd loved the short five-night run, last time. It made all the papers, tickets sold out, tourists rocked up for it. Seven actors were injured, in a space that usually saw one injury a year.

Gambit-C has also been around since '88 and can compile to fairly portable C. Probably been a decade since I tried compiling it for DOS, but I believe getting it up and running shouldn't be difficult.

A few models/firmware combinations have found to look for public hotspots when you don't agree to give them network.

Bash lines are buffered, so modifying behind the program position doesn't really work, but you can self-append to the file to keep a script going infinitely.

Again, the problem is discovery - if this is an optout, and the system that tells you is the same thing that you need to change to be able to use it in the first place, the audience just feels the usual crush and moves on.

Yeah, I'm not really sure how to feel about the way they plan to handle it. "Happy it exists at all" resonates. Most accessibility users find something inaccessible, sigh, and move on. Most of the time there is nothing we can

The ePub contains both SVGs and PNGs, the latter of which doesn't compress all that well for "plain zip", which an ePub is. The PDF on the other hand gets to use zlib for streaming all the objects. It gets half decent compres

> but you wouldn't normally use a database replication protocol to actually transmit live video. Unless you're Teams. Which... Is probably evidence for the above.

Please run all of these through a TTS engine. Yes, it is very helpful to have actually directed information. But the need to use a TUI to do it, bugs me. Not coincidentally, I use JAWS most of the time.

I have never had it be every now and then. It is always bullshit, the first time around. Usually followed by, "You ignored the first three rules, and all the examples, try again." I have worked with some amazingly incompetent devs

I have literally been hearing that, over and over and over, since '22. And whilst it is obvious things are growing... Saying that, sounds almost entirely like the person saying it cannot objectively look at the environment. If everythi

I think you'd just end up with WxWidgets. Because it can do all of that. Most of the jank of the modern platform doesn't come from JavaScript - it comes frame dependency hell, framework layered over framework, and over abstraction

Its different, in that when you teach that engineer, they either leave because now they hate you, or they grow. They change to meet the standards of a project, rather than inventing their own. We don't get seniors, without juniors. I&#

IBM got banned from Queensland gov contracts for 12 years, after the humans decided to secretly scan all legal docs for contract insider knowledge. I'm sure artificial IBM will be much more... Principled.

If the parent compared the approach between typst and ExactTeX sure. The two probably should be compared. "I like typst" doesn't quite seem to fit the substance I'd expect of a comment.

Claude regular spits out six helper functions instead of... A twenty line for loop. It overengineers most things. Overabstracting, deduplicating things that don't need to be. Building metaclasses because it saw a single orchestrator in

Both. And all the dependencies of both are slow. And the dependencies of those are slow, too.

> As the examples demonstrate, although rounding follows deterministic rules, non-associativity introduces nondeterminism, which is further amplified by the larger rounding error of BF16. This becomes particularly relevant in the paralle

Accepting behavioural changes, is the same stink of the last five decades. I would like to wait for my own judgement... But someone reacting to the same, "We're sorry", that has been so common it became a South Park meme? The

Which isn't all that relevant a discussion here. Anthropic saying they did so in this case, means that they admit they were the scraper flooding the domain.

I have an overengineered wifi doorbell, and I've yet to have a delivery where it was used over knocking on wood.

Right... That's why I added "matrix" in there. Because we don't have matrix operations in software, but in hardware.

Australia, the land of LegalAid, is not some place of "elites" in law. Everyone has free access to a lawyer. Everyone has free access to the first consult with law firms.
