The composition is different though. In particular, these satellites probably have more heavy elements for things like batteries and electronics

So they are assuming that: - this comment will still be around in 8000 years - we will still be using the same calendar system in 8000 years - people 8000 years in the future will leave off the leading 1 of years for some reason, and will u

YouTube existed in 2010, and was primarily supported by ADs. Sure at the time it didn't really show what would traditionally be considered television, but it seems like the same logic would apply.

Probably for the same reasons that uutils/coreutils uses a single binary. Specifically: - it reduces the total install size, since common code, including the standard library, is only included once, rather than copied for each executab

My city (admittedly a lot smaller than Seattle) built a municipal fiber network. All new infrastructure. I was astounded to learn it was ipv4 only. And when I contacted support asking when IPv6 would be supported, they ghosted me.

Don't most of the mobile data networks use ipv6?

Maybe it could be optimized more but the TDZ fundamentally adds a performance cost, because it requires a runtime check to see if the variable has been initiatalized yet. Also node used the v8, the same engine as chromium. So this doesn&#x2

> the difference between lexical scope and block scope There isn't a difference between lexical scope and "block" scope. What I think you are referring to as "block" scope, is a subset of lexical scope. The diff

Ah yes, looking at the actual specs, it looks like it does support 11 inch rolls as well.

Well, that's unfortunate. That means another company couldn't, say, make and sell a variant of this that uses US letter sized paper instead of A4.

That would probably depend on the jurisdiction? Just because there was a court ruling in one country, doesn't necessarily mean it is legal in another country.

It isn't just one though. Every linter I've used has warned about that. Probably because PEP 8 says > Imports are always put at the top of the file, just after any module comments and docstrings, and before module globals and c

One thing the PEP doesn't really talk about, and that I find very annoying is that many python linters will complain if you don't put all of your imports at the top of the file, so you get lint warnings if you do the most obvious

The point is that if you could install the app by side loading it, or from a third party app store, then a Government order to remove an app doesn't make it impossible to use that app. But Apples actions, ostensibly to protect its user

But windows 10 was marketed as being different. They said that you would continue getting updates for "the lifetime of the device". They even said it was the last version of windows, and it would just keep receiving updates. And t

Chezmoi is probably the best thing I've found. But I do have aome complaints about it. I don't love the filenames, and using symlinks often feels like a second class citizen. It also has the downside that you have to install and s

Rust closures can have lifetimes, and the lifetime of a closure is restricted to the lifetime of the shortest lived reference that it captures. But that just means the compiler protects you from having dangling pointers in your closure. And

A widely used class has a bad API. You refactor it to make a cleaner API, but your change isn't backwards compatible. Your options are: - Change everything all at once. This creates a large PR. - Split it up into multiple small PRs. No

Kitty at least let's you control the program used, and even set up different bindings for different programs.

Which is very difficult to do. Even if you ignore that doing so often means leaving behind your home, friends, family, culture, job, etc. to go to somewhere unfamiliar. Most countries, especially the countries that you would want to move to

So how would the Decompress Reader be implemented correctly? Should it use its own buffer that is guaranteed to be large enough? If so, how would it allocate that buffer? At the very least, the API of the Readera and Writers lends itself to
