    The best way to develop GMO technologies is to regulate it after it injures millions of people. And that regulation is... declaring anyone who questions the science a terrorist.

    Just a few Gb of ram and the feds can audit your state when their zeroday crashes your machine, what a deel.

    No, and yes. Systemd is needed to put linux under the thumbs of glowies. The people defending it are paid by your tax dollars

    Yes, this is an extremely trivial problem. Anybody who knows how to program in more than one language is going to find this silly. awk or perl would finish it before jit compilatio…

    It's really not. We're talking about gigahertz CPUs and likely solid state storage that can stream many gb/s.. running through a perl script. There really isn't much that is faster…

    Why are you using cat at all? Use a pipe. This isn't hard stuff. Don't use , feed the file into a scalar or array. it should only take a few seconds to process a billion lines. htt…

    Perl is always going to be much faster than Java at tasks like this. Use stdin and chomp() instead of reading each line explicitly. This is really a small, trivial task for a perl …

    I don't understand, it should be pretty easy. A rolling average with BigDecimal would probably be sufficient but a scientific lib might be better for a rolling average or more than…

    Ha ha that's pretty funny but the article specifically states that there's no regulation around these types of rf emissions and that maybe there should be

    That progress will last, for sure. We're about to see a resurgence of small developer web apps and games! Web 4.0 here we come.

    One of my freshman classes was game theory. A prerequisite was trigonometry, and I only had pre-Calc. The best part about it was I was doing averages and which great which number i…
