They often don't, which is annoying to no end. You turn around, turn back, and the car/body that you just saw is now gone.

It's pretty much true for any B-tree based index. You could get around it by using a combined index on another timestamp value, but that's going to be a very large index. Or reduce it by partitioning by e.g. year-month. Even hash-

My mind exploded when realizing we can read random IO from disk at 40GB/s, which is faster than my laptop can read from RAM. https://spdk.io/news/2019/05/06/nvme/ Btw. using SPDK or io_uring?

U.2. The drives have PCIe lanes connected via the blue cables to the motherboard, which is then wired to the CPU. Here's a review that goes into details on the hardware: https://www.servethehome.com/dell-emc-poweredge-r

You can also initialize it to an expression, e.g. let var = { let mut var_ = Vec::new(); var_.push(1u32); var_ };

I'm still running a WRT54GL with Tomato firmware on at my parents place. I used it until I upgraded to a faster one, but the reason it's still running is that it provides the longest 2.4GHz range which is perfect for a large house

Also if you have multiple pixelated/blurry images that helps you can reconstruct it more easily, e.g. if different newspapers print pixelated picture of the "suspect" you can reconstruct it pretty accurately. Machine learning

Oh, that sounds like it could solve my issue. E.g. I compiled my program against my glibc which is 2.24, but target was running 2.23. I didn't even use any "new" 2.24 features, but it was missing a symbol, so it wouldn't

Woah, just realizing that 10.39M 4k IOPS is 42GB/s. Doing 40GB/s of sequential IO was difficult not that many years ago, let alone random IO. That's faster than my memory bandwidth. https://www.microway.com/kn

The general problem is much harder than that. You need to understand double negatives, when do they invert the meaning and when do they underline it? "Ain't nobody got time for that" can be interpreted in different ways. And
