Habitat destruction not withstanding, companies in the solar industry will gravitate towards highest margins. If we want to take on the hard task of building on many private properties, then we need an incentive to make up for the differen

They can provide access to listings that you might not have accesss otherwise. They also get stuff done fast: ours had a hole in our basement fixed (weep hole; Michigan basement) that would have prevented closing. We were first time buyers

I think the best explanation comes from singing. Say "crayon" and "offer". "Crayon" is a brighter, more nasally sound, whereas 'offer' is generally further back in the vocal cavity (referred to as a

Recently joined an Azure shop so new to Cosmos, but it's fairly abstract as a product. It seems to be a front for different database types like Mongo or Postgres or SQL Server with some additional features such as subscriptions. Would

Are any of the extensions big competitors with their managed services? For example Timescale on AWS - I might not bother with RedShift depending on scale and needs. I could be wrong but it seems like business pressure will prevent the spre

Curious how old other formerly closeted queer folks feel (particularly those who came out as adults). I have felt 30 since I hit puberty. I imagine it's from being hyper vigilant about policing my own behavior and body language.

Parts of Detroit are much nicer, particularly downtown and midtown. They're tearing out I-375 which will make a huge difference immediately northeast of downtown. Soon, the Gordie Howe International Bridge will be complete and I belie

While you're not concerned with uptime an old laptop isn't a bad way to go: built in battery backup! As far as exposing to the net, ngrok seems cool.

Garage isn't necessarily a car storage device. Mine is a gym and a workshop.

While I want to understand your point and welcome enlightenment, so far this conversation has just been kinda weirdly hostile.

I became interested in stack performance specifically because I had to avoid heap allocations.

by yawgmoth 4y ago
I would love to see this for C#. Avoiding heap allocations was something I had to tackle as part of a simulation software. C# has a handful of GC generations, and GC gen1 is very fast, but it's still faster to pool things ahead of ti

Yeah! I was thinking "ah the room isn't sealed, nor is the house for that matter" but I can probably get interesting measurements with a simple CO2 meter.

I had trouble understanding the method - were there 2 lasers? "Nd-YAG-laser centered at 532 nm" and "A ps-laser (Edgewave) with a pulse duration of 10 ps, a repetition rate of 80 kHz, and pulse energy of 125 µJ"? Perhaps

This might get you OK marks on the "problem solving" portion of a coding interview. But a programming interview will also look for signals of other skills -- did you communicate your approach? Really good candidates will verball
