A couple of interesting points: - "Compare Places" -> "Compare States" shows consequences for officers involved. - The 10 highest rated police departments in CA are in Tracy, San Mateo, Carlsbad, Palo Alto, Tustin, Es

OT. I am surprised that the LaTeX name didn't end up in a heated argument between Don Knuth and Leslie Lamport, like the infamous GNU/Linux vs Linux dispute between Stallman and Torvalds. Maybe scientists are more civilized, maybe

+1 on this, plus it's very well integrated and backed by audio when in doubt.

I was so fascinated with the story that I read all 3 books in 3.5 days.

That is mostly, but not entirely true. If one's Netflix account is deactivated for more than 10 months, they lose their history, preferences and personalized results.

Not sure why this is getting downvoted, this seems like a good description of the book reference.

I used an STK2M364CC. CPU usage never seems to go above 50%. Control is still a pain, but one way to change effects on the fly is to use rtpMIDI and TouchDAW on a phone.

At 48KHz the setup can sustain 128-entries buffers, or <3ms. Sound travels at about 1ft per sec, so this is the equivalent of hearing an amp that is <3 feet afar. I cannot perceive the latency. The AmPlug I/O has a 3.5mm headphon

I have played with guitarix in the past, and having looked at some of its tube amp simulation code, I have great respect for the amount and quality of work that has gone into it. That said, in my opinion, its modeling capabilities are not o

I use it exclusively for programming. An 8k monitor is not a necessity, by any stretch: A good, large 4k monitor is more than enough for coding. I'd rather not voice an opinion about graphics or video usage because I don't know ab

while you can indeed swap in-place for PODs [1], this is not true for c++ objects. Also, in-place swapping is not sufficient for in-place sorting. [1] example: int a, b; a ^= b ^= a ^= b;

quicksort is not stable. the disadvantage of classic mergesort is that it needs to copy elements out of the input array, although there exist (slower) in-place variations.

If you are hashing k unique elements, N=2lg(k) is a good rule of thumb for sizing your hash functions. A Birthday Attack [1] analysis provides the exact collision probabilities for arbitrary (k, N). [1] https://en.m.wikipedia.org

I am a long-time user of the MX series, having used the master 1 and 2 and multiple anywheres 1 and 2 for years, mainly for their free-scrolling wheels. I was surprised when Microsoft upstaged them with their precision mouse line, which has

Google's US market share is 62.4% with Bing at 25.3% and rising [1]. That doesn't seem like a monopoly to me. [1] https://www.comscore.com/Insights/Rankings#tab_search_share/

> It’s not a fair fight, but it is one, oddly, where the small guy can compete. It might seem ludicrous – DuckDuckGo has 78 employees and Google 114,096 – but often the outcome is the same. For the majority of your searches David, it tur

(1) 20% is 20,000 people; (2) almost everyone sees the summaries the next days; (3) TGIF is [was] not about politics. I agree that leaks is what seems to have brought TGIF down though.

Google is promoting internal fighting ? That's the most baseless accusation I can think of and is miles apart from my personal experience.

This is so sad on many levels. I first saw this article on HN and then went back to search my mail folder in disbelief (I hadn't seen an internal memo about this.) TGIF used to be a wonderful forum to communicate with leadership and en
