safe Rust isn't just the borrow checker, it's also: - no uninitialized memory - clone vs copy semantics as part of the type system - Send, Sync, "fearless concurrency" - no unchecked indexing - type safety (y

This is assuming uncorrelated results too. As you observe more and more of your businesses failing, you would want to update your estimate of your own rate of failure. Each new failure in a string of only failures is slight evidence that yo

In a certain gaming community, we laugh not with "lol" but with "11", since that plays a laughing taunt. This extends to chats outside of the game itself

From what I've seen of environmental review laws, they mostly just have to do with noise and construction nuisance. Whereas community review is mostly about aesthetics. I don't think these are the tools designed for safety.

Have you looked into slint? I'm curious to hear other Rust devs' experience with it.

Right: unlike dying, if someone sits in traffic more, they're able to change their situation and seek alternatives. It's not like increasing traffic in the short term is something reasonable to extrapolate to all drivers for the r

I am not sure if you're in agreement or not, but yes, loans help access things that cost money (like basic needs) in the case that earnings are deferred due to education. Student loans generally require no payments until 6 months after

I held a similar level of student loan debt, and it was worth it. My earnings are much larger thanks to the degree it enabled me to pursue, and I was able to pay it off early. While I don't think the system is ideal, just the existence

I think this is the correct way to phrase it. Just because the probabilities of each are both 50% doesn't mean it's more likely than not to get the same number of ones and zeros. It would just mean you're equally likely to ge

Yes, they are plastic and designed to be driven over. Although, many of them are noticeably damaged already, so I can't imagine they're expected to be driven over so often?

These lanes are confusing and dangerous in my experience. I choose to bike on folsom instead now. We have great protected bike lanes elsewhere in the city (valencia between market and 15th, folsom north of division) and I don't underst

What part of today would have you worried? My start up is having a great time finding people (amid tech layoffs) and our office space is heavily discounted due to WFH/high office vacancies. Our sales are going well also (our industry h

I can't vote for 10 out of 11 of SF city supervisors, but they get to prevent my neighborhood from building more housing. I feel like whatever ideals you have about democracy here, they don't exist in practice in San Francisco for

Because of the flatness of the voltage curve, limiting your charge to the middle range makes the state-of-charge estimation a much more difficult problem (less voltage signal). So there's actually a trade-off between longevity and accu

It depends what you mean by "numbers": all integers or just 64-bit ones?

Are there any promising paths towards preventing this? Seeding clean rooms with other chiral molecules that can encourage the lost higher energy form of a crystal, maybe?

I believe procedural macros always need to be defined in a separate crate, so at least all projects that use procedural macros will have multiple crates

Your comment seems unnecessarily antagonistic. Given whatever size of garage I have, being somewhere I can live without a car gives me more garage space, regardless of whether it's a suburb. If I want to maximize garage space given my

That you need to drive to downtown suggests you might not have much garage space after all?

I'll just add myself as a case where a mild amount of psychedelic drug use led to a mild amount of depression. Strictly negative for me, even if not profoundly negative. I'm mostly fine now, years later, but I feel possibly perman

As a frequent pedestrian, this sounds great. A slow car is a safe car. I've often wondered why lights don't seem to be timed in cities for how long it takes to walk a block.

Please understand, I am still in a position where I am writing new code for a platform which only has one compiler, a proprietary fork of GCC from nearly 20 years ago. I assume other C programmers might have similar situations.

by xvedejas 3y ago
This is the use case for `uint_fast8_t` (part of the C99 standard); it should use whatever width of unsigned integer is enough to store a byte, but fastest for the platform. You always know that the type can be serialized as 8 bits, but it

That's significantly slower than a typical elevator, in fact. Slow elevators run at about 200 feet per minute.

I would sometimes use "whose" in this situation; despite referring to an inanimate / non-person noun, it fits grammatically.

In Age of Empires tournaments, they simply put the players in a different room from the casters/audience, with live streaming cameras. Maybe because live audiences are relatively rare in these tournaments, there's less of a demand
