But how do you deal with communicating that some library you maintain has a behavior change? People already need to know to look at your code in order to read your comments.
This is kind of a fundamental issue with release notes. They are broadcasting lots of information, and only a small amount of information is relevant to any particular user (at least in my experience).
If I had a technically capable human assistant, I would have them filter through release notes from a vendor and only give me the relevant information for APIs I use. Having them take care of the boring, menial task so I can focus on more important things seems like a no brainer. So it seems reasonable to me to have an AI do that for me as well.
It dipped during the covid recession and then recovered to an all time high. Is this your first time looking at an economic chart? It doesn't need to increase every quarter for it to have a very strongly increasing trend.
You're looking at what percent of the total wealth pie do the poor get. But the pie itself is growing, and so is _everyones_ slice of the pie.
Maybe you think its an inherent problem that some people get a bigger percent of the pie than others. But its objectively untrue to say that the poor are getting poorer.
> They are illustrations of a general principle: the legal inheritance channel compounds while the biological one reverts.
All this pseudo-math relies on the fact that family wealth strictly compounds and does not decrease or revert to the mean. But that is not true. Economists study this, and the exact numbers differ but family wealth _does_ revert back to the mean in just a few generations. Wealth does not stay in the same family compounding forever.
Being able to avoid an extra copy is actually a huge performance gain when you can safely do it. You shouldn't discount how useful mmap is just because its not useful in every scenario.
You shouldn't replace every single file access with mmap. But when it makes sense, mmap is a big performance win.
This reads like complete nonsense. If HTTP is involved, lets just give up and make the system as slow as possible?
The HTTP request needs to actually be actioned by the server before it can respond. Reducing the time it takes for the server to do the thing (accessing files) will meaningfully improve overall performance.
Switching out to JSON will meaningfully degrade performance. For no benefit.
The differential on an EV is the same as on an ICE car. It does the same job either way, it doesn't care whether the power source is gas or electricity.
But on an EV, that's basically the only thing that needs somewhat regular "oil changes". Whereas ICE motors & transmissions also need fluid changes regularly.
I think the point is that the blame lies with DCF, not the doctors. Doctors should report, and DCF should competently investigate. In this scenario, the doctor did their job and DCF did not.
> These people are working in the shadows, in darkness," Lamanna said. "They can show up at your house in the middle of the night with no paperwork, no court order whatsoever, and say we’re removing under the B, we’ve decided an emergency exists."
> According to DCF’s 2022 quarterly report, about 60% of parents are reunited with their kids within a year after being removed by DCF.
Anyone who feels justified in stealing kids from parents in the middle of the night, without any due process, WITH A 60% MISS RATE, is completely and truly evil.
Seriously, more often than not DCF realizes they made a mistake and the kid goes back home. Insane.
I think the threat model is a three letter agency demanding a list of customers from Mullvad. Mullvad does their best to make sure no such list exists, but by having credit card info they are forced to know your identity.
It's not like you're going to run plasma OS on your iPhone, are you? You're running the Linux phone OS on the androids with the big batteries.
The point was that it's reasonable to expect the battery life of plasma OS and friends to be comparable to Android, similar to how Linux on a laptop is comparable to Windows.
Shuffle a deck of cards and draw a hand of 5 cards.
The odds that you drew those exact 5 cards are very low. You were lucky to draw those cards.
However, the odds that you end up with 5 cards anyway is 100%.
Its the same with your career. The odds that you ended up taking the exact path that you did, with all the serendipity and chance involved, is lucky. But the chance that any halfway decent programmer ends up with a high paying job is damn near 100% right now.
There are a lot of forks in the road on the way to success. Looking back, each of those forks looks lucky to you because they landed you in you current success. But you could have taken the opposite road at any of those forks and still been successful.
I get a symmetric gigabit fiber connection for $80 a month (€70). If I didn't need the bandwidth I can get 200/20 for $45/month. I'm on the US east coast.
I think it highly depends on what's available in your area.
