printed/println debugging works if you wrote the code or have a good idea of where to go. I frequently find myself debugging large unfamiliar code bases, and typically it’s much ea…

Flight simulator games (i.e. Digital Combat Simulator) tend to be CPU bound, though, depending high-end VR or having enough monitors with enough pixels can quickly become GPU-limit…

I suggested this on a thread in /r/cpp a few years ago, and was downvoted heavily, and chewed out for the reason that coding for ease of debugging was apparently akin to baby killi…

It’s worse than that. Find a random blog that gives you shell commands that add random repositories to your apt sources.list, adds the ssl keys, and installs packages from the repo…

Fravors "Hoax" involved flying F/A-18E Super Hornets at low level, at night, over campfires they could see along their route and lighting their after burners. This was done in area…

I also find peoples generatal non-response strange, though, I don't find Grusch's testimony that compelling: he didn't actually see anything, or really have any evidence. I find th…

As someone in Canada the only thing 5G lets me do is use up my incredibly expensive bandwidth limit in seconds instead of minutes.

were the pipelines going to be shipping this particular chemical (Vinyl chloride) though?

One reason is: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treaty_on_Open_Skies Military intelligence gathering is so common that countries basically agree to not start a shooting war for overfl…

Wow, excellent. Does anyone know how those interactive figures are done?
