Edward9··on Andean condor can fly for 100 miles without flapping wings
Fly? Isn't it basically gliding?
Edward9··on Google Credential Provider for Windows
This feels like it's in pre-alpha. It's a pain to configure it
Edward9··on The end of an Era – changing every single instance of a 32-bit time_t in Linux
This team did an amazing job that will most likely go completely unnoticed if they are successful
Edward9··on A startup is building computer chips using real neurons
This looks like we are going to also feed our computers nutrients on top of electricity.
Edward9··on Microsoft to force Chrome default search to Bing via Office365 ProPlus installer
I really like these corporative battles. Seems it's the only thing that keeps the market being for consumers and not for profit.
Edward9··on Growing evidence that the universe is connected by giant structures (2019)
It seems that periodically there is evidence showing that the universe is this or that and yet nothing is and it will never be concrete because it's impossible to find the root of the universe. I see it as a more philosophical question. I think we should be more focused on exploring the universe, not understanding it.
Edward9··on Interior Mutability Patterns in Rust
Really enjoyed the read! Two minor things I found: downgrade(&self) should be downgrade(self), and rw2 and rw3 have TCell parameters, should these not be QCells?
Edward9··on Many Japanese children refuse to go to school
Maybe it's time for a global reform on schools' approach. I see more and more that children aren't willing to attend school. And I think that's because the approach is the same in the past 30-40 years, at least in my country, Nothing changes, the literature is the same, the teaching methods are the same. I feel that there's a need of change.
