For things that need much more precusion than my lunch, ±1 second probably still isn't good enough, so they need another layer of correction anyway. Given that exists, might as well push leap seconds into that layer too.

Why use zvols? Aren't they essentially just single-file ZFS datasets (allowing e.g. independent snapshotting)?

OpenSCAD has almost zero crossover with B-rep modelling ('true' CAD, what this apparently is), though.

No, that is actually very rare, not typical. Do you have any examples of password managers that do that?

> Wrapping around is what happens when you decrement the minimum value of any integer type, including signed types.

No, signed wraparound is undefined behavior in C, whereas unsigneds are defined to wraparound. If you use -ftrapv, signed wraparound is an immediate abort().

> That's true for signed numbers too though? `int_min - 2 > int_min`

No, that's undefined behavior in C, and if you care about correctness, you run at least your testsuite in CI with -ftrapv so it turns into an abort().

MEMS oscillators do use a vacuum, and that's why they're susceptible to helium. A helium atom is tiny compared to an oxygen or nitrogen atom, and can leak through many otherwise-perfect seals.

So, a (badly-designed) MEMS oscillator is basically a region of vacuum enclosed by a membrane that only helium can permeate. Of course exposing it to helium is going to permanently change its behavior! Once the helium gets in, there's no reason for it to leave, due to the vastly higher atmospheric pressure outside.

You don't have to 'build' anything. Just spin up a GitLab docker container. Bonus: If you put it behind a VPN, you never have to worry about updating it.

This is a very SWE-centric perspective. The very names of software/hardwsre would imply the exact opposite.

Maybe proofread the slop before posting it next time?

I'm an actual boss, and wasting a week is cause for a 30-minute post-mortem, not immediate termination.

I don't think this is true. Modulo the sign bit, the "next float" operator is equivalent to the next bitstring or the integer++.

On the contrary, I would take this as evidence that these projects are alive and well - they have people who care enough to try to affect their future trajectory.

It does, in combination with a pinned nixpkgs commit, which you can find like this:

    ~/repos/nixpkgs$ git log --grep='nodejs.* 24.14.0' -1 origin/master
    commit 9c0e2056b3c16190aafe67e4d29e530fc1f8c7c7

I don't think it's abstract at all. Rub something sharp (anything from a stick to a phonograph needle) on an object and you'll directly transcribe its spatial frequency spectrum into an audio frequency spectrum.

It's possible to fix this in application code with a Primitive<T> or NoDefault<T> wrapper that acts like a T, except doesn't have a default constructor. Use Primitive<int> wherever you'd use int that it matters (e.g. struct fields), and leaving it uninitialized will be a compiler error.
