Testability. Single biggest reason for us not going with the proprietary queue. We can create, reset, throw away queues as we want during testing, thousands times a day. Even on a laptop.

I see what you mean I think but it's really not a mathematical given. If you have two groups where group 1 with size S scores X with variance V==0.4X on average in a given skill (score means competence), and group 2 with size S/2

They do adjust memory reservation dynamically if I'm correct. It's very nice overall.

Nature has figured it out. (I.e.: the simplest way of storing oil is to not extract it.)

I have worked remotely for a company that was otherwise very much a traditional non-remote environment; I have experience partly distributed teams and now managing a fully remote one. I think partly remote will always, without an exception,

Honest question: what's interesting in a hugging game? Children are playing games partly because they're competitive, and fighting is a simple way of competing. How can you do this with hugs?

I wanted to buy this but MS Store asks me to 'associate an address with my profile', then shows a dialog where I can only select US addresses. I already have a non-US address assoc'd with my MS account, so I don't know w

We're developing an electronic health record platform that stores data encrypted in a way that we don't have the decryption key. We don't have end-to-end encryption, but if you got a database dump then it'd be quite tric

Let's not forget one of the important things of H-V: dynamic memory allocation.

WSL2 is really not designed for using Linux tools on your NTFS-based filesystem. Store everything on the WSL filesystem, that works perfectly. If you need GUI tools try VcXsrv.

Sure. I'd by happy to pay for it if it wasn't free.

WSL doesn't have access to USB device (well, you can make it work more or less, but it's a pain). So the remote extension is great in this case.

I'd really loved this a few years ago; but now VS Code's "Remote" extension helps most of my issues. It's just brilliant that I can do e.g. embedded dev on a physical Linux box while running the IDE on Windows.

This is a bit like the financial crisis in 2008. In 2008, the idea was that if you bundle up a large bunch of mortgages, then the bundle will have low risk because the chances of everything failing at the same time is low. The cloud is desi

Yes. Almost no money is given to the artists, most of it is eaten by the organization that claims to be representing them and has good political connections.

For example, here (in Hungary) we are paying some extra 'contribution' whenever we buy storage (HDDs, SSDs, SD cards, USB sticks) that is intended to compensate artists and distributors for lost revenue because the assumption is t

What we do at my company: everything is in the cloud except build farm because renting dedicated servers is much cheaper, we need lots of them and we don't care if one drops out. So we have 32c/256G boxes for running tests (a full

Apathy is comparatively rare, yes. (Sorry for the HN crowd for not getting into the data here, not enough time right now.) That's because the previous level is usually so painful that people end up changing something. Especially in eng

I did this. (32" 4K -> 38" curved 3840x1600) The pixel density of the curved ultrawide is annoyingly worse than the 4K. Otherwise it's better, more usable, but the low pixel density makes me want to go back. I'd reall

This is where things get mixed up. EPIC is suggesting that using Google Cloud is somehow equivalent with handing data over to Google so that Google works with that data. These are absolutely, extremely different. Assuming that Google will s
