For me, the combat was confusing, but the inventory system (which considers both weight and bulk) was much better than in most other games (even today), which use fixed number of slots with perhaps stacking of same items. That us horrendous

While 'recursion with caching' is an easy way how to start explaining 'dynamic programming', there is a slight difference - recursion works top-down, while dynamic programming algorithms generally works bottom-up.

Well, being polite and professional where one is sad or angry is still emotional labor (but it is probably a reasonable expectation from employees, as 'dealing with sad/angry co-workers' is also emotional labor).

> 512GB 2400 ECC RAM $400 Is this really that cheap? Looking at several local (CZ) eshops, i cannot find 32 GB DDR4 ECC RDIMM cheaper than $75, which will be $1200 for 512 GB.

Size of byte is implementation-defined, not unspecified. Why is that a problem for writing robust code? It is okay to assume implementation-defined behavior as long as you are targeting a subset of systems where these assumptions hold, and

I guess it is contained and cannot leave easily. Water also stays in the bread as water vapor, so it is not completely dry after baking.

I would disagree. First, system that forwards traffic behind its own IP address is called proxy if it works on application level, and NAT if it works on IP level. So we have socks proxy, but home router with NAT. Second, VPN is just a fancy

There is no reason to assume that say C compiler generates the same machine code for the same source code. AFAIK, a C compiler that chooses randomly between multiple C-semantically equivalent sequences of instructions is a valid C compiler.

Why you switched from grams to cans when compared to Dr Pepper? A can of Dr Pepper is 350 ml, so about 350 g. Therefore: 100 g of Dr. Pepper has 11g of sugar

I also browse with disabled JS by default, enabling it on selected sites for selected JS sources. It has several advantages: 1) Web is much faster. 2) Often JS makes continuous CPU load, raising speed of CPU fan to noisy levels. 3) Sometime

There is still out-of-network healthcare (i.e. specific services or entire healthcare providers not covered by single payer) in many countries with universal healthcare. But it is usually clear which is which.

This is unrelated to whether it is statically-linked or dynamically-linked, it is about maintaining compatibility of API for libraries. In C, it is generally assumed that libraries maintain compatibility within one major version, so program

The cost is here due to AML regulation. If government wants to outsource its duties (crime intercepting) to banks, then perhaps it should be government to pay for it (in the similar manner it pays telecoms for wiretapping).

Isn't it more like a superstition to assume the placebo effect is real (and not just a measurement artifact or regression to the mean)? It is hard to make a scientific experiment that could show the placebo effect to be real: > t’s

The advantage in IPv6 is that almost always one can do NAT into /64, so it can be full-cone 1:1 IP-based NAT, instead of port/connection-based NAT like in IPv4. Such NAT has minimum disadvantages and can be implemented more effici

Main argument for shared libraries is not space reduction, but uniformity. I do not want in my OS ten different versions of GTK, Freetype, Guile or Lua, each with its own idiosyncrasies or bugs.

I appreciate your nuance, as mixing up economic burden and legal responsibility for taxes is a common fallacy in discussions. But specifically for rents in supply-constrained cities, i would guess that supply is highly inelastic, therefore
