I had this issue and it appears to be fixed in the latest version of mutter available for Arch.

I was going to say "as opposed to a little less than an hour's walk", but in the US there is the question of how many 14-lane highways and Costco parking lots you would need to cro…

I've seen bad service design having e.g. Before=systemd-user-sessions.service This means that as long as systemd is trying to (re)start the service, nobody can log in. Which is a p…

The general argument is that if you are a proto-government/warlord/gangster, you want to encourage/coerce your subjects into agriculture as the output is easily taxed and stored. T…

Unlikely. The new collection literal syntax exists as the dual of the pattern matching syntax, which itself exists primarily because you can't reference a generic type by name with…

After some more experimentation it looks like you don't support allOf/anyOf/oneOf which seems like a pretty big hole.

I'm interested in new offerings in this area, as all of the existing options are pretty janky. A couple of thoughts: Operation.summary is typically derived from the documentation f…

Collection literals are a pointless extension of the pattern matching syntax added to get around the fact that there is no way to name a generic type in C# without specifying its t…

Edit: see TheK's answer, which is virtually identical.

So there are two problems as I see it: Firstly you see analyses like these where the author goes "see, heat pumps work fine in cold climates, look at these success stories!", and t…

They really can't because of the ventilation requirements and the amount of water vapor produced.

It's interesting that 9000 is the starting port for Ethereum consensus clients, although the participation rate does not seem to be affected.

You'd have to be trying really hard (read: on roids) to be anywhere near a situation where adding muscle or cutting fat makes you less attractive.

Ignoring the fact that XMLHttpRequest is a hideously unlovely API, it's a huge problem when your primary asynchronous abstraction is not implemented by your primary API for async I…

I refer to this as the "things I consider important/am passionate about" capitalization style, which happens to be popular in Government.

I've done a similar thing with Scala in the past - ship the compiler jar and then compile your configuration (which is just an abstract class implementation) as part of the startup…

It's actually relatively easy to be sodium deficient if you are physically active (as you shed sodium via sweat) and don't eat processed foods regardless of whether or not you are …

It's a hard problem, NHibernate actually came a little bit closer with it's QueryOver API. The most glaring problem with the LINQ API is there is no way to OR two reusable conditio…

There are three problems than an ORM should solve to some degree: 1. Type safety/refactorability 2. Composability (can I reuse my queries) 3. Expressivity (can I generate the queri…

Scala doesn't really have a name for this, it simply permits you to provide a block in lieu of a parenthesized argument list. Given that blocks are expressions: val a = { val x = 2…

To quote James Mickens, "large swathes of the security community are fixated on avant-garde horrors such as the fact that, during solar eclipses, pacemakers can be remotely control…

The challenge is that the validator sets the rules for who is vaccinated. As an example, some jurisdictions might declare individuals with single doses protected. Another real exam…

Rent control does keep rent low. What it creates is a supply problem, which could possibly explain the decades-long wait list for an apartment in Stockholm.

People keep bringing this up, and the question you need to ask is why would anyone other than miners choose the non-fork chain? The fork will happen as long as one person is willin…
