US's DoJ fined Microsoft for bundling a web browser into its own OS. EU is the apprentice.

ffmpeg and x265 allow you to do this too. frame-threads=1 will use 1 thread per frame addressing the issue OP mentioned, without big perf penalty, in contrary to 'pools' switch whi…

Memory mapped files also known as sections in VMS/NT have just two advantages: * Fewer context switches among user space / kernel syscalls * No need to copy _modified_ data into th…

If you want the old stricter Google behavior be sure to check the "Verbatim" option under 'tools', or add "&tbs=li:1" to your uri. Around 2008 Google started testing a new search e…

Ultimately this 'frustration' is always caused by loose typing/inexistent data model and not by the iterability of strings itself.

Agreed. A good tip for this is to try to find the earliest version/commit of the project you are interested into.

it's subjective of course, but I find context manager decorators very pythonic, I still remember the 'whoa! that's beautiful' moment when I 1st learned about them. But most importa…

So selling your hair is a problem too? Surrogate mothers? Do you even think that a poor person has the same quality of healthcare as a rich person has? All these bans just showcase…

The irony here is that this kind of styling used in this devtools example(hovering over one element, highlighting another), cannot be done by css itself.

A fun book I recommend is the 'Invisible Hook' by Leeson. Excellent as a summer book, a Libertarian view on the subject with good info on pirates even if you don't agree with the a…

I know, you could also just put {} around quotation marks and would work. My and parent's point was that it will probably flood MS's support channels, if you just force every cmd u…

Agreed. I like PS too but forcing it breaks a lot of staff, you cant use it interchangeably, eg 2 quickies: -bcdedit /c {xxxx-xxx-xxx-xxx} (= {..} is parsed as a code block) -invok…
