That's why it's called the bleeding edge. Rust dev culture is 99% bleeding edge. It is not a culture of stability. It is a culture of change and the latest and greatest. The language could be used in stable ways, but right now, it

Those who accepted the 100 mile no constitution zone as part of the USA PATRIOT Act and who have not been protesting it the last 20 years let this happen. It was obvious it would be abused back when it was passed. It has been ever since in

I run a handful of odroid sbcs constantly with 3x rtl-sdr usb radio receivers each. For their cases I used the cardboard box they shipped in covered in overlapping 2" conductive-glue backed copper tape. And lots of type/mix 63 fer

I have a patch set to removes virtual memory interprocess blocking for linux 5.6 that I run as kernel on a couple of my machines. I'm just hoping that this is patchable out too.

I wish the FCC would go back to doing their job re: radio interference and unintentional emissions. The entire concept of a computer case 'window' is about equally as anti-social and rude as littering in a public park. But it&#x27

I hope there are OS level (ie kernel build options) to turn this kind of thing off or just ignore the 'tags'. I know it's important for corporate use cases and monetary transactions and all that, but on my personal computer I

Yes, it's hard to get data on 'internet addiction' because it's a meme, not a pathology. It's been brought up in committees in the DSM and other places over and over and over because the public demands their meme be

I think that you don't understand snow (real winter) and how it effects vehicles. A dusting of snow that stays on the ground for a day before melting is not an issue. The issue is when the snow keeps the road markings covered for liter

Ah, yeah, but from that point of view it's not much of a news story and one wonders why anyone cares?

Not surprised. Phoenix is one of those rare and contrived physical locations that doesn't get weather or seasons. No snow, little rain. The road surface and road edges are always visible and never change. People always stay in the clea

I know it's only shared system RAM and not VRAM, but the M5's 150GB/s isn't going to be very fast when doing AI inference. A fairly old rtx 3060 12GB does 360GB/s. But I guess quantity is a quality all of it's

It doesn't though. Only the headline implies that. If you read the discussion you find the authors of this study do not claim any addictive behaviors were found.

Gambling is not an addiction. It is "gambling disorder" and it was grandfathered into the DSM. It is explicitly not an addiction medically. Eating and shopping are two great examples not erronously grandfathered in, which committe

It might help. But wifi, like all radio, is a shared medium. Unlike actual transmission lines like ethernet where you get the entire electromagnetic spectrum to yourself to use multiple times , once for each twisted pair. Even if ethernet

Powerline Ethernet is directly equivalent to littering in the park. By using it you are littering and being a jerk, even if you don't realize it. The FCC only tests such setups in very limited contrived ways. When it comes to actual ho

Short lifetime and quick re-entry is a great feature of vLEO constellations. No long term space junk. Compare that to MEO or GEO where sats are there pretty much forever (hundreds to thousands of years). Or even high LEO with many tens of y
