It's basically the same, just with a lot more of a "good enough" attitude to aiming. So you really mostly on a muscle memory to have pistol somewhere in a target, then aim using iron sights. For whole 8,6 or 4s you focus vision on a iron sights. During the first phase - moving your arm up from the 45 degree position, you look in the target direction so you know when to start, then focus your vision on iron sights in the end phase of raising arm motion so you are almost immediately ready to aim and pull the trigger, then just move you eyes to the next target, but with "locked" focus (at the distance of iron sights, not target), so again, arm moves to the target area and you can aim and shoot.

Yes, for pistol shooting iron sights (just learned the english term, that’s what I meant by “focus on pistol” ;) ) are what you have to focus on. The target is black bulls eye, clearly visible on a white background, even if it’s blurry.Then you aim just below the bulls eye - so what you se is black iron sights (vision focus, sharp), then small white gap, then blurry black bulls eye. And then you learn to have all those elements spaced exactly the same on every single repetition.

You don’t have to track target, as it’s always in the same spot.

You look at the target, but without focusing your vision on it - it is locked to the iron sights. So the target, which is black bulls eye, is always blurry when shooting. Increasing depth of field as described in the article, would be beneficial. No idea if prescription glasses would help for someone with no vision issues.

Because when shooting, you focus your vision on a pistol iron sights, so you need to see perfectly sharp on a distance less than 1m. Not sure if you can “cheat” with glasses to have better vision on that distance, if your vision is healthy

extend your arm, now focus your vision on a tip of your finer, and (still focusing on a finger tip!) try to point your finger just below some small object in the distance of few meters. If you use both your eyes, if done properly it should be impossible because the object you try to point to, but not look at, will be seen double and will move as you move your finger. Then do do same but with one eye closed - now it still should be blurry, but nothing more so you can aim. This is how you aim in shooting (always focusing vision on pistol, never on target) so you need to do it with one eye. You don’t want to keep it shout as this creates additional tension in body, and probably may affect your face after years of training, so simple piece of paper or plastic to shield the eye is enough.

I would say, that beside logical performance as you called it, 99% of optimizations is profiling the memory allocations and minimizing it by using more performant (lower-lever) API's, or different techniques to reduce as many allocations as possible.

I've never really saw any meaningful examples of performance optimizations from the list you provided: memory layout, cache locality, access patterns. If that would be needed, I would say that wrong language was selected for solving the problem.

In my company, we use .NET for most of our applications, with Rust being used in places where we needed raw processing speed. But to this day, I'm not 100% convinced that was good choice - I don't know how much faster is Rust in our case vs .NET written with performance as priority, and overhead of interoperability, separate team, etc. is huge.

in polish, there is no equivalent to "AM" and "PM" shortcuts (and am/pm itself is not used) - that should explain that 24h is the only time format we use in text. You can use 12h orally, as was explained earlier - in most situations it's obvious if it's AM/PM.

If disabling car remotely in specific area is the same as turning off the ignition key in these cars/using the parking brake, then yes. As the information how to do that should not be public and was not meant to be used be anyone, but only by authorized people (technology from 70') it's kind of hack. Exactly as using the Blue boxes[1] to hack telephone networks

But this is automatic system - any train which receives such signal automatically activates it's brakes without any human interaction.

So it's not just calling a school saying there's a bomb, but using the info about the right frequency and signal pattern triggering remotely all alarms in neighborhood.

Pretty great tradeoff if you consider (in case of Poland) 26 vacation days, up to 180 days of sick leave with 80% of wage, 20 weeks of maternity leave, having the employer respect the same notice period.

Ignoring fact that you can't be "just" fired without any reason - it must be result of your performance, behavior, or position reduction. Employer who would fire anyone just because of a bad mood, then hire somebody else next day as a replacement, will simply loose in court.

And 3 months notice period is for employers with 3+ years in company, others have 2 weeks or 1 month.

try Rider from JetBrains, it's as good or better as Visual Studio. I'm developing .NET projects (web) on macbooks with Rider for last 2 years, and do not miss Visual Studio at all

not sure if this is lost in translation or this is difference in how we understand her words, but she doesn’t want to limit her books to some kind of “chosen” people, it’s more that she is against over simplifications - for the sake of popularity over quality. So she is writing assuming that reader has some background, if not - to encourage they to gain some and then read her novels with full understanding and pleasure.
