Four distinct points of light would generally appear when the driver has their fog lamps on. These are different from high beams. In fact, a lot of drivers where I live tend to leave both on!

What you're asking for should ideally be supplied by your Web browser, not by Wikipedia.

Why? As far as I can tell, people already watch their smartphones while driving at level zero.

It does, in the sense that executing any (regular, macro) code involves executing microcode. But no, there's not a separate phase during which only microcode is executed, if that's what you mean.

What gets sent can be encrypted, and the cleartext version might only be accessible through debugging.

So, a tricky piece here is that this appears to be behavior of the TikTok web site. Obviously Apple makes no attempt (nor claim) to review the behavior of every web site accessible in Safari from an iPhone. And other native apps can embed

Television ads for spirits, too, are legal and not uncommon in the United States.

I hadn't heard about this sampling strategy, and I don't know much about music licensing, so I did some reading to learn more. https://www.ascap.com/help/royalties-and-payment > Each year, ASCAP processes

Your comment might be interpreted incorrectly. According to the video, the silver toilet in the video is not the one that cost $1.7m; the video says it was provided by JCDecaux in exchange for some advertising rights.

So, I can totally get ChatGPT to continue the file it's listing, but when it does, it's clear that some code was skipped. (The messages often truncate right in the middle of a line, or even in the middle of a "quoted string

How are you all getting around the response length limits? I've been experimenting with using ChatGPT to generate source code, and the code listings keep getting cut off. My attempts to get it to paginate its responses have not really

That's often true, but not always. For example, if your desktop is connected to an Ethernet hub, you would usually expect to see all traffic from any machine on the hub. (Ethernet switches are a different story.) Wi-Fi can work the

By that logic, you don't need an OTP code at all, because your adversary "shouldn't" have your password or PIN. The entire point of two-factor authentication is to provide an extra layer of security for when the first la

Others have already corrected you, but in case it makes it more concrete, here is the implementation of timegm() in musl (the libc used in Alpine Linux and some other Linux distributions). timegm() takes a time in UTC and converts it to Un

"Could" can be both the conditional present tense or preterite tense in English (at least AmE). It's ambiguous. See: https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/could#Verb

There is often a small amount of extra runtime cost to zero-initialize the buffer. Other than that, no reason other than inertia.

Some languages, like Swift, basically do this: they enforce that dynamically allocated objects are definitely initialized before they are used. Also, many C programmers (in my experience) don't use calloc -- they just use malloc, and

Mostly, yeah. But microarchitectures do sometimes add new instruction set extensions, like how Intel's Skylake added AVX-512. Bitcode can be re-lowered to the new extended ISA to use these instructions (assuming you don't need t

As someone who worked in Craig's org, I can assure you that there is plenty of non-"hardcore" engineering going on (whatever that means, anyway). Plenty of bullshit. Plenty of incredibly smart, creative people (engineers and

I'll answer, also as a former employee. Craig and Tim figured out that there was a lot of slack in Apple's software quality. That is, they could skimp on quality, favoring a strict schedule and flashy if half-baked features, and

Think of the most intrinsically complicated computer program you ever wrote (that's not owned by someone else like an employer). Then contact a patent attorney and pay them to prosecute it.

I have bought and sold secondhand Apple devices (Macs and iPhones) many times without problem. What are you basing your comment there on? Yes, as an anti-theft measure, the seller has to explicitly log out of the device before transferring

32-bit Mac OS X was not (it had a 4/4 scheme). Though even then I'm not sure you could reliably allocate two gigs of contiguous virtual space without running into some immovable OS-provided thing.

Aw, that's an unsatisfying answer! I'm a total .NET noob, but this attempt in Compiler Explorer shows it not using the xor trick. https://godbolt.org/z/jhzqxEKzT Maybe I need some extra compiler flags or some
