I thought the whole idea is that we have programming languages because turning a rigidly defined language (like C) into another rigidly defined language (like machine code) is relatively simple. Turning an ambiguous language with no formal

People forget what determinism is. Non-deterministic systems produce different output states given identical input states. Even if a compiler's memory gets a one-in-a-million bitflip that produces a different output, it doesn't me

I'm serious, lol A proper execution of a cubicle office is actually quite decent. But for a good workplace you also need to have good colleagues, including managers. That's universal, whether open plan or cubes.

I feel a lot of the noise complaints are due to open plan offices. I've worked at a cubicle farm before. Partitions were high enough to avoid being able to see people in a sitting position, but high enough that you can still stand up a

Because there's a difference between a "coder" and a software engineer. Someone who finished a bootcamp might be able to write a simple program in Python, but that doesn't make them a software engineer. I've said th

The proper DMX512 connector is XLR, though? The 5-pin variant, that is. I worked as a tech at a stage for a short while. We always used XLR5 for lighting and XLR3 for audio.

Just because the USA does it doesn't mean China is innocent. But whataboutism is basically SOP for the CCP shills.

China definitely meddles with the affairs of other countries. The belt and road initiative, for example. It's taking some pages out of Europe's old colonial playbook. And let's not even get started on Taiwan...

Same in the Taipei Metro system. Stations often have facilities(like toilets, stores and lockers) within the paid area. However, getting in and out at the same station charges you the base cost: NT$20 (About US$0.66). For example: You'

You don't even need to be remote to take a nap. Here in my office, 13:00 is nap-time. Most of the office turns the lights off and people sleep for 15-30min. Kind of felt guilty when I woke the IT guy up with an urgent issue.
