The amount of water will depend on the rain, so we don't know how shallow it is even with prior knowledge.

Dude that's not a 'puddle' as the article claims, that's a body of water that it's not even visually obvious whether it's safe to drive through. Maybe I'm a bad driver but I'd hesitate to drive throu

Not just similar, it's exactly the same issue caused by exactly the same kind of change, and is probably hard to fix for almost exactly the same behind-the-scenes complexity on Windows.

Problem RISC-V has is there's no middle-ground. The specification for an architecture is meant to be useful to anyone writing assembly, not just to people implementing the spec. Case in point x86 manuals aren't meant for Intel, t

Yeah the other day in calc.exe I pressed F7 in programmer mode to change to octal (F5 to F8 select Hex, Dec, Oct, Bin), and instead it asked if I was sure I wanted to enable caret browsing.

To me it just seems like they are prejudiced against Brits or something. I don't buy their statement about legal concerns given it's as vague as GDPR, and equally as inapplicable to a www git, and yet they've not banned the E

The website explicitly says it's geoblocking me when I access it because I'm in the UK.

I would be interested in contributing to this but the UK is geoblocked.

This is very nice. I'm currently writing a minimalist C compiler although my goal isn't fitting in a boot sector, it's more targeted at 8-bit systems with a lot more room than that. This is a great demonstration of how simple

The main concern I've got here is the gap between a human's intuition to prevent this kind of situation vs an algorithm. I'm interested to learn more about Waymo's logic here too and I'm hoping my concerns are addr

Absolutely, I can tell you right now that many human drivers are probably safer than the Waymo, because they would have slowed down even more and/or stayed further from the parked cars outside a school; they might have even seen the ki

That's what "Pan-European" would imply, actually. Similar to what "Pan-American" means for the Americas.

It's worth pointing out the convenient imperial units are the ones that are hardest to get rid of. The "pints" in pubs is because a pint is about how much a drink should be, in fact I've often found drinking 500ml to be

It's not obvious to me at all, that's why I asked, precisely because of the use of "pan-European".

The title says "One Europe" and "Pan-European".

Formation might be easy but the laws, regulations and planning required to do almost anything are extremely burdensome.
