    LPs can prove optimality of a result but sometimes this is to expensive and you stop as soon as you reach near optimality based on known bounds. For several problems you can prove …

    The biggest problem is heating in winter, which requires way more energy than cooling in summer. So for colder areas doubling Panels will not be enough.

    You are right in that there is a class of algorithms for which it is possible to do that. It is just not possible to decide if any algorithm is in that specific class of algorithms…

    To get std you need some kind of libc replacement. You don't need that if you just want to use alloc.

    You cannot approximate NP-complete functions. If you could approximate them with a practically useful limited error and at most P effort you would have solved P=NP. (disclaimer my …

    They won't be able to write it off though, because they still could Release it.

    To be pedantic: writes may also make use of indices, if you have constraints (like foreign keys) the db needs to check for every write.

    I was under the impression this is how things always work in graphics pipelines. You don't want to give up on all the precision between 0 and 1

    Nobody is arguing that the usecases are the same. In the end you can't even chat with gzip (although you could with it's predictor). The thing is, that building the predictor is al…

    I have been able to fix these random lags by doing multiple full disk reads. The first one will take very long, because it will trigger these lags. Subsequent ones will be much bet…

    As a non-native speaker: how is it pronounced differently?

    Maybe I'm biased, but in my opinion crime risk is higher in the US, where you have "no-go-zones" than ok most parts of Western Europe, where this concept does not really exist.

    You are right. The /8 is 10.0.0.0/8. I guess it's not a typo, but a weird way to write 10.0.0.0/8 excluding 10.1.0.0/16 .

    Yes, this explains the how, but not the why. Why is there no optimization in place for this? Converting a=x or a=y or a=z to a in(x,y,z) should be trivial and the db should have he…

    That's weird. I thought this would be optimized based on database statistics and not depend on the query syntax. At least for those simple queries. Can anyone elaborate why this is…

    We use micro because we could develop a custom plugin without too much effort and it is very easy to deploy (copy) to systems that have no good terminal editor available. Prefer vi…

    Don't know how far the 5g rollout is, but in Vienna, Austria we have full 4g in all subway lines and stations since 2018. No need for wifi.

    Because they never realize capital gains. Instead they take a loan and use the stock as collateral to get liquidity . They never pay back that loan, but just pay interest, which ag…

    That's what I did as well. The problem often is fighting the urge to correct things. For me the only thing that helped was sleep deprivation, but probably alcohol has a similar eff…

    What I hate about python/yaml/etc is that copy/paste + reformat does not work. Yes it forces clean indentation, but it gives the writer the burden to take care of it. That sucks. L…
