we never had a boston dynamic robot doing a backflip though. But I guess that's kind of my point, advances in robotics/AI/AGI can't be compared with the invention of the car, but that's exactly the argument that&#x2

I assume people are against automation because it leads to more unemployed. In the future we will probably have most manual labor automated by robots and have massive amounts of people without jobs, no healthcare, barely surviving at all in

the deep integration go has with github in particular seems more ridiculous then ever.

Its certainly not hard to calculate but a if this index then this vertex coordinates, and so on, seems significantly simpler than having to calculate anything at all? It sure what be more verbose though.

Yes competitors have an unjust advantage if they don't comply with GDRP and you can take legal action against them. There is no authority that goes around deciding when this actually makes sense or is harmful to the economy. Which was

There is no major european internet company worth speaking about, so I think they probably don't care if it irreparable damages their own local companies in the process of damaging the foreign ones since they are virtually non existent

now that unreadable shader trick might be neat and all, but since GLSL supports if statements why not use this and make it readable? There certainly won't be any performance issues with rendering a single triangle, but I suppose people

you might call this a gotcha of this obscure standard called UNIX/POSIX, although... > %G The ISO 8601 week-based year (see NOTES) with century as a decimal number. The 4-digit year corresponding to the ISO week number (see %V).

I would love to be able to write C++ without having to write header files, there is an insane amount of redundancy between header/sources in any C++ project. I don't even care about anything else, that would be the most important

Maybe for their next console they could wire the case so it will destroy some crypto chips when anyone attempts to open it. Another idea might be to wire in a radio clock with a set date in the future that causes a over voltage in the SoC,

You can use one tool to optimize and base64 inline images and another to compile SCSS and inline it of course. But then you discover that you also want to optimize and inline images placed within css url() properties so you implement that f

I'm pretty sure its perfectly aligned if you have the correct tab size that was used for the whole project. Which is the stupidest thing about using tabs over spaces.

looking at code like this in github always reminds me why I prefer spaces over tabs, look at all that broken alignment: https://github.com/id-Software/Quake-III-Arena/blob/master/c...

I love art bell, really sad about this :( There is so many things I could point to, but probably my most memorable interview he ever had was with "mel waters" about a bottomless hole in his back yard. Just a fantastic creepy myste

basically the reason I like my filesystems a few decades old and mature, I would not trust zfs or btrfs with anything critical.

how can you possibly claim this so confidently, but sure keep believing its impossible, until its not, but then its too late to worry about anyways. This seems like an incredibly foolish opinion on this matter.

Just mentioning your IDE as an essential part of the "stack" shows how little core understanding you have. You should read up on the documentation of the basics of java, gradle and spring first. Not sure maybe rails developers exp

I think thats good advice for anything, I would however put the caveat on things that use open protocols. I have no issue using AWS SES (Simple Email Service) because thats just SMTP, I would however never use something like Firebase. Just

I only got into assembly recently when programming the C64, its such a simple instruction set and there is so much documentation that it seemed to me much easier to get into. Also its fun to have to work around its limitations.

I agree, however check out the gunmetal grey version, its very professional and modern looking. But I agree with the normal black one with this obnoxious lime green lid logo on the front. The razor logo is just horrible.

exceptionally well, the only other comparable manufacturer would be Dell that offers some native Linux/Ubuntu machines. You can expect huge issues with all other vendors.

I switched to a Razer Blade Stealth, its around 400€ cheaper with the same specs except a QHD+ display (glossy, touch, 3200x1800). I'm wondering why Thinkpad only offers their WQHD (highest available resolution, 2560x1440) glossy? Also

Yep which makes sense for play store etc., except samsung pre-installs the facebook app in this way. I would be surprised if facebook does pay samsung nothing for this. Similar how google pays mozilla to keep google as the default search en

with a rooted phone I was able to delete such a system app using pm uninstall, was this doing a remount,rw on the system partition to remove it under the hood, or how does this work then? Because I thought that was more of a "you pay u
