One of the things that's come up in several trade deals Canada has negotiated is how protectionist we (as a country) are when it comes to dairy. We have not experienced the massive increases in pricing on eggs. The supply management sy

After the utter bullshit pulled in California, better hope your state is willing to defend its water reservoirs or for some places clean tap water may be the least of their problems.

SELinux! Half jokes aside, I'd love to be able to have a decent mobile style permissions experience on browser extensions and desktop apps.

We all use PCs and heck even phones that have thousands of times the system memory of the first PCs. Making something work really efficiently on older hardware doesn't necessarily imply less demand. If those lessons can be taken and ap

Is it actually clear this is an authority the president has? Basically usurping Congress' control of the purse?

Good read on what someone in a specific field considers to have been achieved (rightly or wrongly). It does lead me to wonder how many of these old manuscripts and their translations are in the training set. That may limit its abilities aga

You misunderstand, the repo lists an MIT license which requires attribution. You want people to give you credit if they use this LLM-generated code. LLMs which were trained on the works of thousands of other developers with similar licenses

It's funny that this is MIT licensed, expecting credit for uncopyrightable work.

I've seen many devs extrapolate this thinking too far into sending only the most simple queries and doing all of the record filtering on the application end. This isn't what I think you're saying -- just piggybacking to try a

I would expect the query plan for SQL server to essentially return records matching `id` first (which again should be a situation where uniqueness comes into play) and then performing the rest of the execution on the subset that matches, wh

by BeefWellington 2y ago
If your column named simply `id` isn't a unique index you've gone very wrong. The rest of the query plan probably won't need much power.

People have been using MQTT with TLS for years[1][2][3]. Long before the company and line of printers existed. It's not really an excuse to say "well they didn't use it" -- they should have simply offered people the nece

You do not need to give it internet access for LAN mode to function, but you lose a LOT of features that the cloud app and mobile app give you. For example, you can no longer do anything with the camera in LAN mode, even from the official

PG&E is basically California, where it can hit north of $0.50/kWh pretty regularly. I think it's worth noting in this article too that the author mentions they can now heat and cool parts of their house they weren't previ

Yeah but how is that funding actually applied? You could throw an extreme amount of money at schools but require it be spent on specific initiatives. Things like resource officers, hiring someone with specific qualifications, and boatloads

Sure you can. It's in their example for how to use requirements.txt: https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/reference/requirements-file-fo... Maybe there's some concrete example you have in mind though?
