That or they want to remove software limits on performance to mine cryptocurrency faster.

So long as the rating is shown in estate agent's listings, tenants can take it into account when deciding what to rent.

Huh, you're right, it doesn't anymore. It used to though.

I suppose it makes sense now that the web has gone from primarily being a document platform that's sometimes used to create simple applications to primarily being an application platform.

From a user's perspective, the review is absolutely necessary and really needs to be much better on Android. Proactive vetoing of malware from distribution is much better than reactive malware scanning against a signature library.

That doesn't really justify a slice of subscription revenue though.

I could do it in Google Pay (you create a new payments profile for your new country).

An alternative way of phrasing your first point is to say supermarkets are turning into department stores.

Try the Murderous Maths books.

Part of the point of viridis is to not have random contours that stick out because of the colour map.

If you want to highlight certain contours, plot the contour lines.

They often are checked now in the UK, after a lot of complaints and scams.

Compared to Gnome 3/40 or Windows 8 or even Windows 10, Windows Vista was positively sensible. Its problem was hardware requirements that were hard to meet at the time.

By 4.10 or so KDE 4 had matured to KDE 3 level and this hasn't changed with Plasma 5.

A low acceptance rate just means either there were more applications than usual or fewer places than usual.

A record high number of applications is, of course, an achievement in terms of encouraging those applications.

> There are some departments in institutions (think CS) who, in the face of exploding enrollments, have made every effort to scale their courses to accommodate as many students who are capable as possible

I would be very surprised if they could do this without lowering the standard of the education provided to each student.

It works fine, you just ship the static libraries. With static linking your binaries won't have dependencies anyway.

That's not to say the static linking craze is a good thing. We'd be far better off finding a way to dynamically link templates, so you get the security benefits of automatically updated dependencies that dynamic linking gives you.

> There is definitely a place for payments in a social app.

Not in a country that has free, (de facto) instant bank transfers (Faster Payments).

If the problem there is that you need someone's bank details and not just their phone number, there's Barclays' Pingit.

These days you should really use PyBind11.

It would be more than £10 per hour even if you worked 168 hours a week.

Turns out it is:

> This term came from Bitkeeper, a predecessor to Git. Bitkeeper referred to the source of truth as the "master repository" and other copies as "slave repositories".

I think you mean SGML. XML is a W3C standard (https://www.w3.org/TR/xml/) so it is freely available.

Mozilla's deal with Google gets them a lot of funding for setting as default the search engine most users would have selected anyway.

If they could do that, they could also install the meter on their end.

As someone who uses the AUR a lot, it's really the perfect example of how you just won't update software if it isn't done automatically by the distro package manager, particularly when you use -git packages.

If you have unlimited disk space, sure. Otherwise, it would be really nice to be able to layer venvs so you don't need to have multiple copies of a package installed.

> When nVidia got what it wanted from Linux by dominating compute space using CUDA, they've just left visual part of their drivers to rot.

The flip side is that if you want to do GPGPU work (even if it's just local testing) you more-or-less need an nVidia card.

You can't separately compile and link in templates. The compiler needs to see the definition to instantiate it.

Meanwhile you might not want to put that definition in the header file so the header just contains the interface. Ergo you #include the implementation at the bottom of the header file.

I think "template specializations" might have been the wrong term, and what was meant was "template implementations".

Not necessarily. The C++ standards committee for instance happily standardizes features with only one (or zero) existing implementations.

It has to, because such implementations would be extensions that standard compliant code can't rely on.

Try Doom Emacs (https://github.com/hlissner/doom-emacs) instead of Spacemacs. It's much lighter weight and doesn't replace the configuration system to nearly the extent Spacemacs does.

Two coherent beams of light will absolutely interfere.

Because web browsing isn't (or at least, shouldn't be) CPU bound. If you're just browsing the web you want light and cool with long battery life.

This is the cathedral style of development which was historically how GNU was developed, so I think it's perfectly in the spirit of Free Software.

No, they're saying "if you want general warrants, you need a law that specifically permits general warrants".
