    I had to look this up, because I had never heard of it. How could a lens be damaged by infrared lasers? It turns out it’s the sensors that are easily damaged by high powered lidar …

    That Wikipedia article has a nice picture comparing the two shapes which shows how they’re more complex than you’d think. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Gerver%E2%80%99s_and_Ha…

    It actually helps the extraction from the coffee grounds too, not just for reducing mess. https://youtu.be/nLnB99VJ0HE https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S259023852.…

    They were the same a long time ago, but there has been some drift. If you use the wrong typeface, it’s still intelligible but looks strange. Blog post I found with some examples: h…

    If you’re not speculatively executing, you don’t need a branch hint because you don’t need to speculate which way it goes. Also, I don’t think executing both sides of a branch ever…
