Even more impressive are IMO the current songs people compose on the SID. This guy is an artist in the true sense: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ELpnGDHo0Bg https://www.youtube.c…

Another fun one: a=[] a.append(a)

If you behave lawful, you'll create one single tracking history for everything tied to your real life person. If you don't, you apparently can get away with stuff like that AND on …

Oh you are right. It actually _does_ have a time shift. I take back what I said and assert the opposite! Thanks for the explanation.

I see, thanks. But that rather sounds like the buoy itself is switching modes? From the look of all the plots, even the far-away ones, it rather looks to me like they have been rem…

The spike corresponds to about 15min delay between the quake at 9:31 UTC. But some kind of spike visible in all stations at that time, even very far away ones, like Mendocino bay .…

At least the time stamps in the plots seem to correspond to current time in GMT.

But that doesn't fit the data, either. The buoys all report something around the 9:45ish GMT mark. And 1500m/s would mean you reach Mendocino bay in California only about now or so…

> My assumption, guess really, is that they were remotely activated into "Tsunami Mode" -- a more rapid-pulse reporting mode or similar, which just is a bit noisier perhaps? That s…

What I don't get is that nearly all the buoys that have that moving icon "Tsunami alert" show some excitation at the ~9:45GMT mark. But I would of course expect the buoys that are …

I have easily more than 100 firefox crashes for each kernel crash, and I guess that is similar for other people(?) So I think the session restore is almost always used in a case wh…

I think versatility and the absolutely easy on-ramp are Python's killer app. The 'absolute noob' can start writing simple python code after 5min of introduction (you can start usin…

Are you sure? Bonnie++ has byte-wise and block-wise tests. Yes, the byte-wise tests are CPU bound (as expected), but I have not seen that for the block-wise tests on any machine so…

You have a calculation error: 707 x .32m ~= 230m

> The latter part is true, but BTC cannot provide that. It's nothing more than a nifty hack. It kind of works, which is impressive, but it is horrible inefficient and impossible to…

But you still have a lot less predictability: - DRAM refresh - cache hits/misses

Have you looked at QGit? Yes it is very old - but is also still works fine.

I do not know why this is downvoted. It is correct. There is a very important context to the 'he called him a goat fucker': The - admittedly very crude - 'poem' he made is embedded…

Thanks for the interesting read.

Well, but then that simply is a choice , isn't it? I would not expect to be paid in full if I work part-time - why should that be true if I would be a woman?

FTA: > But the argument that “life choices” made by women are the real reason behind the gap is, in itself, an absurd oversimplification. Sure, many women choose to stay home or cu…

In a way, message passing using the usual way, methods, means TWO messages are passed: The parameters and the return value. I think that obscures the better parts of the OOP view q…
