The thing is, back then statics and architectural design were in their children shoes still. So if your roof was 3 tons, your supports had to hold up 300 tons because you had no better way. Nowadays, it holds 15 tons for 3 tons + 12 tons sn

You only have to audit the unsafe code for unsoundness though.

by zaarn 6y ago
Once you define a safe interface, you only have to audit the implementation of that interface for errors that aren't guarded for in unsafe code. The safe interface you can then use without fearing memory corruption or having to audit t

For "things I won't work with" it needs atleast "flammable upon contact with skin/oxygen" or "friction explosive, no lower bound" or even "highly toxic and highly carcinogenic".

You still get safety, if you write normal rust code then rust will largely behave the same. But it allows you to for example to dereference raw pointers (and by proxy, allows pointer math). A lot of unsafe functions become available, like u

Not necessarily, there are a bunch of unsafe methods you kinda have to use going this low level and if you're in unsafe mode, then you can overwrite memory or do things to corrupt it.

I've helped with construction of some houses with gravel+filter bedding. There is usually more than one layer of fabric+gravel. It also helps keep the gravel around. The estimated lifetime of the filters I helped putting in is around 1

I would add, having helped with some houses relatives were building, that usually a fabric filter is put in as well, usually multiple layers, so that dirt has no chance of sneaking into the gravel. The cellars also have accessible pipes tha

The lines themselves basically do not have twists anymore, it only happens at the special power poles (Verdrillmasten) and only statically (so no moving parts like in PGE/CA). They're more modern and safer but more expensive when

Well, they clearly did not establish the fire load in the immediate area of the weld, as is common safety practise in the industry. You wouldn't want to weld near an active gas line either, you want to ensure it's not filled with

Modern transistors are rather small and would desintegrate at too high temperatures. Not much you can do about it at those scales, any material will decompose.

It would be the Federal Republic of Germany. Or the Democratic German Republic if you think of the east block.

That's not how extradition works. It doesn't matter to the court in this hearing if Assange did it or if there is good evidence. No extradition court cares if there is good evidence. The only thing they care about is A) is the cri

There is degrees to freedom of speech and until the chinese invent telepathy, freedom of thought is preserved, always. But to the first point I just made; you can have freedom of opinions and freedom of facts. The former means you are free

The reason is fairly simple; to get to the moon, you have to intercept the moon and then slow down below escape velocity, if you want low orbit or surface landing, you need to break a lot and get a circular orbit first, possible with a tilt

Atleast where I love, when you're not permitted to work you can sue the employer, since you have a right and obligation to fullfill your side of the contract just as the employer has a right and obligation to fullfill theirs. Not being

The moment you're at your job is when your clock should start, unless your employer has demanded you do a 2+ hour commute or something. Ie, the moment they control what you do and can order you to do things like putting on a uniform. A

What you need is a union law similar to germany. In germany, when you apply to a job where a union has created a union employee contract (ie, standardized pay, standardized hours & benefits), then you can choose to use that contract eve

It would be quite an art to generate a legible post that contains both ASCII art and a consistent amount of entropy without containing too much entropy or being too compressible. And since posting it adds it to the compression dictionary, i

It's 12 accounts per second instead of 600 per second if it only takes 1 second. Or 1200 if it takes half a second. That is still an improvement.
