I much prefer Bryson City to Gatlinburg, and you can technically go into the park right outside Bryson City at Deep Creek, and even hike to Clingmans dome. Gatlinburg is a tourist madhouse while Bryson City is a great little town and you ca

Wonder if they will ever fix upload progress using XHR, pretty annoying to not be able show accurate progress to the user when using larger chunk sizes: https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=277286

MSSQL can handle 32k open connections no need to run a pooler in front of it, can PG do 32k connections and a process for each? MSSQL shares cached query plans between connections including jitted code, PG cannot do that and the changes nee

>Unsafe extensions can take down the whole instance in the threaded model, processes contain the blast radius to that connection. MSSQL has its own task scheduler with the ability to kill etc, its like its own OS internally in that respe

Interesting I have definitely used the distinction between null and empty string quite a bit in MSSQL and matches most programming languages. Another issue that used to exist was Oracle table name were limited to like 12 characters or somet

by SigmundA 3mo ago
Each PG connection being a whole process does not scale like MSSQL that uses a thread per connection which has a max of 32k per instance. There are no need for connection poolers in front of MSSQL although it is normal to pool connections i

I also miss clustered indexes, datetimeoffest, plan caching and query hints from MSSQL.

I don't agree, a relational database is not required to have a particular storage engine or format, that is an implementation detail. There are other relational databases that have both kinds of storage engines and some use both on the

The machine is easily overridable by disabling FSD... Modern cars will auto brake if sensors detect what it thinks is an imminent collision regardless of accelerator position: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automated_eme

Sorry the difference between 70mph and 15mph is a 20x difference in kinetic energy completely different outcomes.

by SigmundA 3mo ago
Moving off a railroad track at what maybe 15mph max is very different than doing 70mph down a cut de sac double the posted speed limit. I am not saying FSD should prevent any forward movement, how fast can it go in reverse? Probably somethi

by SigmundA 3mo ago
I guess that seems ridiculous to me. I could understand if its some sort of government regulation, but if you want to ram a house or anything else or go double the posted speed limit then you should be required to disengaged FSD and go manu

>FSD has Automatic Emergency Braking but that does not apply to hard acceleration by the driver Why?
15.
by SigmundA 3mo ago
That is the current public information if it is true is only the driver at fault? What are the alternatives? FSD on and no driver input? FSD off and driver rammed house without assistance? This is mostly a thought experiment for me provoked
16.
by SigmundA 3mo ago
Why does the FSD blindly accept accelerator input in the face of a dead end cul de sac with much lower speed limit? Is this some sort of regulation? I have driven normal cars that cut power and brake if they detect a perceived dangerous sit
17.
by SigmundA 3mo ago
So my understanding is the telemetry shows the FSD was on and driver held the accelerator down the whole time and the car did 70+ mph into the home. Tesla proponents say it’s the drivers fault since the accelerator was held while dissenters

Why EAC3 compressed audio instead of uncompressed PCM in Dolby MAT like an Apple TV? E-ARC has the bandwidth for 32 channel/object uncompressed Atmos no need to do EAC3 compression. This is why Apple TV and Windows use Dolby MAT uncomp

These are typically LFP batteries that already have significantly longer cycle life and are a much more stable chemistry than the NCA / NCM cells in normally found in western cars. The cells are also designed toward charge speed vs cap

Yes charging at home is great until you need to go on a long road trip or you live somewhere without the ability to charge overnight. I can charge overnight but I am not going to give up a gas car until the fast charging situation is better

I can fill my gas car in 5 minutes, this makes an EV essentially no different. I don't want to sit around 15 minutes to fill up my car on a road trip that also increases stall throughput 3X. I think Chinese are taking the correct appro

I remember the original Scorched Earth being one of the few games that could actually do SVGA graphics at the time. Most games of the era where 320x240 8 bit 256 colors, I had a 286 with 800x600 SVGA monitor and that game could actually use

I understand what a differential probe does, what I don't understand is why they are so expensive. Again one can get a whole USB differential scope for the same price or less. Seems like just a differential probe should be relatively i

Why are differential probes so expensive and why don't more scopes just have differential port built in? For about $300 you can buy a Tiepie differential usb scope: https://www.tiepie.com/en/usb-oscilloscope/h

Wood boats have been around for hundreds of years as well doesn't mean they are just as good in leak resistance to welded boats... Ship vs boat is also not a contradiction.

by SigmundA 5mo ago
Now go look up why they stopped riveting ships in the 40's and went to welding, there are no modern riveted ships. Even with the rivets they were forged not pressed, nothing like a screw. Cheap aluminum boats are still riveted, welding
