People implicitly assume the 'adversity' term is negligible. But in reality, the 'adversity' term can very large, and vary widely from person to person.
[yep the "equation" isn't dimensionally consistent. It's meant to be a "completion prompt" to your internal LLM to translate those tokens to a longer paragraph.]
(iirc) I think I used `-fomit-frame-pointer` with DJGPP on DOS on a 486. It was an [unimpressive :)] software-rendered 3D graphics demo, and I was very happy with the substantial free speedup I got.
(not the author) The metadata is a contiguous range of disk blocks. I think the intuition is that such layouts are likely to require simpler filesystem code to manipulate. [versus (iirc) ZFS which may have metadata blocks scattered throughout the disk, probably requiring more intricate code to keep track of].
Thanks! Do you have any thoughts to share on reasons for the migration to Bazel?
3-6 mo of one engineer to migrate to something so hardcore as Bazel seems very good actually, especially since it seems they Did It Right. The flows in 200-engineer size org can be quite complicated.
Follow up: I was wondering if bazel's hardcore declarativeness + opinionatedness-about-reproducibility might help increase confidence in some situations, e.g. an organization making binary distributions of their software to external partners.
(not OP, but another Brother fan) I've bought two Brother multifunction monochrome lasers, both are still running fine.
I have the Brother MFC-L5800DW and it's predecessor (~$450). Both are amazing.
I stepped up to this price range because models at this price point have a USB slot in front so you can directly scan to a thumb drive, or print from a thumb drive.
Both have an extremely powerful scanning function e.g., scan to an SMTP server, local FTP server etc etc.
These are the Dewalt of printers e.g., full native Postscript, native LPR daemon the device etc.
Where I landed is that it's simply not worth the risk given the relatively small amounts involved. IIRC I bought an off-brand toner once -- the smell when printing was definitely stronger. Replaced with a genuine toner quickly.
RIP. I started using Vim on Slackware iirc. Haven’t stopped.
I checked out various other clones back in the day — vim was way better afaict.
PS: A major reason I use Vim rather than Emacs is that the arrow keys worked in Vim but not emacs. On Slackware. No I don’t use the ijkl keys to move in Vim. :) :) #blubvimmer
