I don't understand. Robust markets don't have large margins. Why would a regulator even want markets with enormous margin? That's usually market failure .

This is a great new "you can land on the moon with 10 MHz".

The peak of irony, because you know how these people arrived at their 40 Mbit bitrate H264 and their ineffective tinkering with the same in the first place is guaranteed to be some LLMs expert suggestions. As is often the case, because they

I don't know how to comment on this considering you don't seem to know that the majority of research staff salaries in highly successful labs is paid entirely through grant money.

The ratio has just been going up and up and up, and to suggest it pays for "equipment, supplies and data resources" is a bad joke considering the people doing the work end up saddled with yet more administrative bloat in the form

If universities fund it themselves they might forego some of the usual 30% administrative grift and we get some 40 projects out of it!

I'm curious how these fellas took something like IP block allocation and turned it into an Excel based workflow.

DRM aside, Spotify clearly should have logic that throttles your account based on requests (only so many minutes in a day..), making it entirely impractical to download the entirety of it unless you have millions of accounts.

Three levels down and people have entirely forgotten what my post was. My "server" is some anemic ARM core built into real physical hardware with 64M of read-only storage. I don't want it spending its time "hydrating&quo

HTML is the last thing I would ever want to generate on my embedded device, it's a terribly verbose string-based mess invariably coupled with stylistic choices. Which is why my servers don't generate any of that, they serve stat

It's terrible, why would I want my endpoints to return random HTML fragments? I realize thats how you did it in the JQuery times, but I was never in those - at that time we simply had template engines in the backend so this HTML slop w

It is made illegal. As the post notes, you need to (1) give notice and (2) data collected needs to be made available in a user access request and (3) deleted irrevocably on request. You must have a legitimate reason to process and store thi

I'm the first to say they should have been shut down the day the original deadline ran out, and if new leadership comes to the WH they should aggressively prosecute all the platforms that broke the law under promises of the corrupt DOJ

I don't get it, did you miss that this went all the way to the Supreme Court already? It's not "anti free speech", it's "anti Chinese platform".

I'm sure theres a difference in the binary, for a real comparison you would need to compile the same coreutils version with the same options. I just think the assertion that "compute-heavy" tools like sha256sum would be espec

I tried md5sum and sha256sum and there was exactly zero difference in runtime (the Fil-C version of sha256sum was consistently faster, in fact..)

by stefan_ 10mo ago
There is no "arbitrary code execution and all kinds of nasty" in the Fil-C version and it profits from the decades spent fixing all the logic bugs, races, environment variable mess in coreutils. Meanwhile, the Rust version of cour

It does teleport to Peru but it also fast-forwards time to about a year into the future, which caused my car to think its overdue for that oil change. It even synced that back to the headquarters and I got an email asking me to take it to s

GitHub has seem to come under the same management as VSCode, everything has to be made AI and that is the only priority. It's like the Google+ of old but stupider.

It's 2025, maybe instead we can finally stop trying to emulate letters from the 1980s? If your business process today involves Word, you need to be retired so someone can come in that understands what computers are.
