What are the proper permissions for an agent? An agent shouldn't be able to read ~/.ssh, but that means a bash tool that spawns `cat` is different than one that spawns an ssh clien…

I'm also not sure you can really learn chip production from widely available public information. It's a hugely complex industry where the details tend to shape larger strategies. F…

You can do better than O(N^2) if your changes are monotonic /independent (or you're able to cache for basically the same reason). This usually requires either luck, a huge amount o…

integration tests (which can be trickier when it requires a hardware test bed.) I use this as a fizzbuzz-type test when I'm interviewing at hardware companies: do they have develop…

If your CEO is going around talking about how your product will "most likely lead to the end of the world", people are right to expect you to be pretty careful in what you're doing…

Isolation is a pretty standard requirement for lots of networks, especially gov. AWS provides isolation domains, and used to have a unidirectional cross-domain service called AWS d…

Probably one of the numerous companies making qualified receivers? E.g. [0]. There's even a published table comparing basically all of them [1]. [0] https://www.aac-clyde.space/wha…

It's entirely possible they're using something like block floating point, where most of the hardware is simply fixed point. AMD's NPU does this, for example.

Another year or two of RAM shortages should go a long way to closing that gap.

Even if that's the case, max_user_watches is never less than 8k unless you've set it lower for some reason. If the editor is prioritizing currently open files as it should, there s…

Seems to be a good indicator of ideology and political alignment.

Not exactly a strong argument if you need like 5 qualifications to demonstrate the issue. If the right node fails, if it happens right as you walk up, if it's raining, if your porc…

I'm forced to have a relationship with a bank that sends out iPad giveaway emails, where your chance of winning is contingent on filling out a survey with personal information. The…

Do you have any hard numbers from your community on how many cases had flock as crucial to resolving the case? When my community banned them, the police were only able to offer a s…

I'm building an EMR and there is a large portion that is CRUD, but that doesn't mean I don't rely on enormous forms or don't need client-side validation. Another way to interpret t…

How long did it take you to review things for correctness? Like an incremental query engine is a few thousand lines of reasonably difficult code on its own, a reliable WAL is anoth…

That would explain why mine is increasingly lagging as it ages. Unfortunately, the libra H2O went with eMMC for water resistance, so replacement is slightly more involved.

I apologize for such a big program — I didn't have enough tokens to write a small one. - my coworkers

Like all advice, A.B.A. some pretty serious flaws if you apply it too universally. Automated solutions tend not to replacing manual work perfectly or completely. They do most of th…

I get what you're saying, but my opinion is that an argument that encompasses everything from local operations up the highest levels of international leadership is an argument abou…

I don't know why you're telling me this. It's not like I agree with the article. I'm offering it as an example of people who think DWB is political.

Quads make it feasible to write correctly rounded double functions. You can almost do the same things with double-double, but the result is slower and implementing most of the stan…

I'm not sure how you can read the article and think it isn't arguing MSF/DWB is political. A few quotes: Hamas operatives in Gaza hospitals, failure to screen out terrorists, and p…

Unfortunately, there are actually people who believe that DWB's purpose is political. Here's an example from the Times of Israel [0]. [0] https://www.timesofisrael.com/doctors-with…
