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++.

I've never heard anybody (mis)attribute that to Apple.

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.

Typo?

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.

That line from TRON: Legacy always gave me a shiver.

Nice article. Finally, something that matters on the front page.

That argument could also be used to say that the FFT's time complexity of O(n log n) should be impossible.

Instead, put up with a flavor of Scheme that looks suspiciously like Nix with some extra parentheses...

IIRC, that is actually the standard proof that there are infinitely many primes[1] or maybe this variation on it[2].

No, not RPCs/APIs either. A satellite bus is a physical object[1], which defines the mechanical standards for mounting payload modules.

It's a uint32_t of 750 Hz "jiffies", which does overflow at ~66 days.

All energy inevitably changes into heat eventually, and in the steady state, power in = power out.

There is no way to get rid of heat. It has to go somewhere; otherwise, the temperature of the system will increase without bound.

At 15:00, she says "quantum computers are surprisingly good at [...] quantum simulations [of electron behavior]", which would seem to contradict you.

Now anybody with root/sudo/physical access to the remote machine has full R/W access to your entire home directory.

Are you trying to assure others or reassure yourself?

Not even correct for a third party CA (unless they MITM you).

Not OP, and not a very experienced with NixOS (I just use Nix for building containers), but roughly speaking:

* With NixOS, you define the configuration for the entire system in one or a couple .nix files that import each other.

* You can very easily put these .nix files under version control and follow a convention of never leaving the system in a state where you have uncommitted changes.

* See the NixOS/infra repo for an example of managing multiple machines' configurations in a single repo: https://github.com/NixOS/infra/blob/6fecd0f4442ca78ac2e4102c...

Only if you have a broken kernel cmdline or fstab that references /dev/sd* instead of using the UUID=xyz or /dev/disk/by-id/xyz syntax.

G^n curvature solely depends on the geometry of the curve, while C^n continuity also depends on how you parameterize the curve. So, G^n is what you want if you're talking about a purely geometric shape rather than an (x(t), y(t)) trajectory.

Half-Life showed a plausible story of how high energy physics could have unforeseen consequences.

Wouldn't that be quadratic rather than exponential?
