The CU decision didn't foreclose the government from crafting a different law to address the issue in a more narrow and content neutral way, but congress being the dysfunctional clown show that it is, hasn't. CU also didn't r

“ask” mode for installing tree-sitter grammars is the default setting. Tree-sitter modes broadly aren’t enabled by default, but that seems at least consistent with eMacs defaulting to very few modes enabled by default.

Good news for you is that whoever told you that was almost certainly wrong. Apple considers a product "vintage" 5 years after it was last offered for sale, and "obsolete" 7 years after it was last offered for sale[1]. Pa

I can't say it has any particular bearing on the usage of emacs, but within the last year or so I started using a "ortholinear" keyboard (an ergodox-ez) and found that qwerty was uncomfortable on that with how lousy my typing

I'm starting to get a better handle on what you're getting at, but I still think I disagree that the code shouldn't compile. To really settle this I guess we would need Bill to weigh in on his intent, because I read this arti

I think we might be talking past each other here. Whether the assembly op is `cpuid` or something else, isn’t really my driving concern. The comment that started this thread (which I’m pretty sure wasn’t yours, so I don’t necessarily expect

Sure, I agree that if you're making a CPUID inline assembly template that isn't setting the register value, and it accepts any values for EAX that would also cause it to read ECX then the behavior is going to be undefined and like

I'm not sure the example template was supposed to be canonical, vs demonstrating multiple output destructuring. Certainly the actual instruction definition in the checker library seems to understand that there could be two possible inp

While this sounds good in theory, I suspect the actual result would be much worse for justice in most cases. With the corporation acting as its own legal entity, if you are wronged, you sue and obtain justice from the corporation. If instea

Not everyone works at Initech though. My office is quiet, filed with sound deadening cubical furniture (a conversation at normal speaking volumes 10 feet away is almost inaudible) and ample private meeting rooms. Lunch is rarely above $12 a

For a programmer, remote work is the worst. Constant endless notifications from emails, slack messages and calendars. Excessive amounts of meetings to replace what used to be 5 minute chats at someone's desk. Expectations of instantane

On the other hand, I usually find people are generally observant of your desk space, especially if you look really busy with something. But remotely, you're constantly interrupted by incessant notifications from the slack channels you&

From a nation standpoint, doesn't "incentivizing and promoting" remote work also incentivize off-shoring jobs out of your economy? If your nation's companies perfect remote work, why would they higher your highly paid ci

I feel the opposite. Before the pandemic, I would have said I'd 100% want a fully remote job if I could have it. I even looked at applying to Gitlab because of that. And then the pandemic hit and I spent 2 years working from home all t
