    One of the interesting things of living in Saskatchewan is that due to large portions of the province being offline, video movie rental is still very much alive here, as is videoga…

    no, it's been status quo since Mulrooney. Wages stagnated back then, and rents continued to rise.

    Easy to disprove. 1. who buys USA's milk? USA, largely. Doesn't export enough because doesn't pass standards in most other places. 2. Sex and gender diversity is proven both global…

    fair. I'm doing this entirely within an IPv4 network and hadn't looked into that yet. However I'd firewall it out of being distributed.

    I use IPV6 ULA to deal with this. (IOT link local only connections). Mind, I also ensured scope routing/etc worked, too, as part of the unit test family.

    The Bresenham line algorithm was such a breakthrough to me - talk about looking at a differential (partial differential) from an integer view, by a particular axis! Anyway, by exte…

    When I was a kid, there was a physical store around Boundary Road in Vancouver BC area/Canada. (or it could have been another name of a store, carrying their products. I was 12 whe…

    Trade was more profitable than raid. Look into the Hanseatic League. Pirates (to go a-Viking was to go a-pirating) became shopkeepers. But they kept up "walk softly and carry a big…

    All of this was so very inaccessible from North Western Canada. (mind, still is, but Internet makes vast gulfs of space seem so much smaller) When I could get there, Heathkit (~120…

    I keep getting people telling me this doesn't happen. GAH. Instant migraine trigger for me too, along with sucralose and several other artificial sweeteners.

    instant migraine ingredient. Mind so's sucralose and some others for me. shrug as long as they're not universal, will be ok.

    I mean "yes but" lots from 2015 and before, on a scholarly paper search engine. (I do not have access to most, but there are some public ones) I mean as a convention when dealing w…

    I mean it probably shows that "common carrier" protection should emphatically not apply to them, but what do I know?

    Better to link the hosting site - https://openquantumdesign.org/ - or maybe its githubs - https://github.com/OpenQuantumDesign too.

    Speaking as growing up in Fort St John, BC, sunrise was after school began, and sunset was before school was out - more or less - in the middle of winter. But then, that city (in B…

    technically yes, because there's a failure path for every single failure that an OS knows about. And most others aren't so resilient. However, mmap bypasses a lot of that....

    I like C. You can take away all memory management (yes, including some of the unsafe glibc calls that have hidden memory management) and everything can be so smooth and clean. Sinc…

    Winnipeg is far south of where I usually am, and rather near the US border. It might be comparable to China what with the sea nearby and all those lakes. I'm out in the middle of t…

    Yakutsk sounds similar to where I live now. Mind ... a lot of the Canadian prairies are "empty" (not really, lots of farms... but not a lot of cities that aren't close to the US bo…

    hunting dangling references in a reference counted system is like that.... that's all I can guess is going on here. Good hunting! I wonder if there's a resource debugger? So far wh…

    I hope Canada moves more to EVs too. Right now they're luxury priced ... ... I work in the EV industry. (school busses though)
