SIGKILL can't be handled. It's the signal you send when you don't want to give the process a chance to handle it.

I've long been annoyed by unreadable color choices in command-line apps. Dark-blue-on-black. Bright-yellow-on-white. I often find myself squinting or leaning into the screen just t…

If I had to guess I'd say it's a library/SDK.

Looks like a direct cause and effect relationship. So to avoid the same outcome, you'll just need to buy your phone in a country where Apple makes the App Store available. That see…

The official app store will surely have 99.9%+ market share, just like the Play Store does on Android. Not many companies will want to give up 99.9% of their total addressable mark…

I didn't downvote, but it's probably because of the lack of understanding and/or fear-mongering around privacy/anonymity. Yes, he'll have to report the donation and pay his taxes. …

I like to call these "coin-operated comments". Someone sees an input phrase "cryptocurrency", a neuron fires, and they respond with an output phrase "money laundering". The pattern…

Thanks yeah that's the one. It's a completely different site, but the design looks similar to my eyes. That's probably why I got them confused

> it can add the equivalent of C’s noalias all over the place There's an open proposal to do this in Zig as well, with the ability to opt out at the individual parameter level (and…

Didn't these benchmarks used to have box plots for every comparison? Or am I thinking of another site?

Yes it could. If you're working at a company you shouldn't upload your company's secrets to ChatGPT, Bard, Google, Microsoft, Zoho, Discord, Telegram, Pastebin, or any service unle…

1. You're right, that link isn't relevant on second look. I do remember a specific thread but I could be misremembering and my google skills are failing me (or maybe the subreddit …

Yes, that's where the saying "not your keys, not your coin" comes from. But that's another deep rabbit hole. Since this thread is about Google (don't forget), what's the equivalent…

So your point is after you read wikipedia, it's possible to ignore the information you learned there and find some other rationalisation to send your money away? Yes, that is possi…
