It's not my experience with fire alarms that they go off without reason at all. Common for apartment buildings is someone smoking under the detector (more often than you think and often they don't realize it they caused the alarm)

I've used them a few times for personal transfers. Each took less than 30 seconds until the money was booked out of my account and booked into the receivers account. SEPA in my experience has never taken longer than 1 day unless it

Adoption, not support, meaning the clients and server both support it. I bet most of the non-supporting clients are simply either a bit outdated or had it disabled (probably by the client local AV engine).

Only a much older version which sadly does not feature compressed bitmaps or reordering of the bitmaps, plus having one or two bugs rather critical bugs. It's part of my toy project kernel. Largely written in Rust with a few unsafe beh

I've written some memory allocators that use lock-free allocation maps. In this case, a 4kb granularity allocator that used compressed free-bitmaps for usage in both userspace and kernelspace. The entire thing was lock-free, so allocat

Cartering to power users isn't usually good for marketshare because it means you limit your market share to a small subset of the market. Making Thunderbird more accessible and making GPG more accessible, even if that means you can

Well then you develop seperate tools for separate threat models. Covering all possible threat models is impossible and supporting many of them is a heavy maintenance burden that can easily lead to the standard user having their threat model

Before they used a half-baked C library that interfaces via Text-based RPC to GPG directly (which has already seen some CVEs). I'd take the gpg.js implementation over that any day.

If you rely on type labels on your functions and variables, you should rarely require a try/catch to handle type errors for internal functions.

I'm a very safe driver. When I go through the woods at night, I drive 40 or even 30kph. I've been part of a wild boar crash (southern german wild boars can get hefty), so I want to avoid future incidents. It's not unrealistic

I'm not here to force a debate, I'm merely pointing out the obvious. It is my right to buy a car in consideration with others, but honestly, it should be a duty.

Where I live, not a ton of moose, though generally if the area is known for roadkill of large animals, you should try driving slower and maybe checking your headlights to make sure they are adjusted. Safer driving beats driving a huge car f

The other person might not strictly be in a car, they might be a cyclist or a person simply walking around, so I don't think your counter argument applies. I would also argue that centering your car buying decisions around your own saf

When seatbelts were introduced, there was indeed a number of people opposed to it and just like with COVID19, claiming it infringed on their rights and refusing to wear seatbelts out of spite. The reason it's not controversial nowadays

That is exactly the point but also somewhat auxiliary; when people say things like "science can't answer these questions" the issue is either that the question is already politically loaded or requires a tradeoff between two

You can have tradeoffs but then you're no longer answering scientific questions but either a political question or a question of personal belief (ie, "which you think is better").

On arch, patches are usually done to either customize the build version (the kernel is 5.9.xy-arch1 for example, that's the only patch), or to make them build with the newer compiler and libs present on the system. Additionally any pat

Shitty design tbh. Just look at modern plants. Chlorophyll is immensely inefficient because it only filters the green part of light. A tree literally misses out on 80% of the energy provided by the sun. We did have purple photosynthesis for

Yep, those things work (though both GNOME and KDE still have unstable compsitors, so take that as you will). There is also pipewire going somewhat stable (I had issues with bluetooth but otherwise it worked perfectly), that would enable all
