I think they meant in terms of karma/reputation for the individual, and the project. Traditionally open source is heavily based on these social currencies.

Reading a register from a microcontroller peripheral may well reset it as an example of a possible side-effect here, and that's exactly the kind of thing you use volatile for.

That is already happening in the EU [1][2]. Most of the world will catch up soon I suspect, with some notable exceptions. [1] https://digital-strategy.ec.europa.eu/en/policies/cyber-resi... [2] https://

I kind of have the opposite experience, and really only use maps to find streets within the city limits. The country is easy to navigate with the road signs you see along the way, and it's more enjoyable to navigate that way than follo

You do get an audible "DUAL INPUT DUAL INPUT" warning and some lights though [1]. It is never allowable to make sidestick inputs unless you are the single designated "pilot flying", but people can sometimes break down un

The 777 and 787 before it are true fly-by-wire designs like the Airbus in question here; the 737 MAX isn't and never was. It just had a computer that was supposed to add artificial inputs under a very specific condition, so it could co

That's applicable for one specific model of ADIRU (basically determines where the aircraft is in 3d space in terms of position, rotation, velocities, and accelerations) from a single manufacturer (Litton). These aircraft have dozens of

You can turn the ignition off. The reversers will not unlock on an airliner that's airborne either.

I’ve run into this exact issue several times with group projects at university in the 2010s, and each time recovery was copying chunks of plain text from backup copies into new documents as you say. Luckily by the time we got to the final y

That’s exactly the problem “Dev Drive” is intended to solve I believe. I haven’t tried it myself. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/dev-drive/

Certainly not just down to luck across the industry as a whole though. That particular type was exempt from a bunch of regulations, written in blood, that all the other popular types comply with.

I could not install the Italian train app while travelling in Italy due to this.

It works well enough for trains too. On those you get to stay onboard for multiple legs though, and I believe that’s quite rare for flights.

It works fine for McDonalds. They just print the number in a huge typeface on the receipt. They don’t have to pretend to care, and I don’t have to mess around spelling my name out.

That may be so for the camera division but not for PlayStation. My PS3 takes a standard 2.5” drive. Not sure about PS4.

Designated initialisers for structs and unions are a really nice readability improvement. You can use comments if you have to of course.

Qt licensing can be problematic depending on your project. They also no longer publish LTS releases under an open-source license. Swift UI would presumably not be encumbered in this way.

Specint benchmarks conducted by Anandtech show the A13 going toe-to-toe with the 9900K [0], although x86 still has a decent lead for floating point. [0] https://www.anandtech.com/show/14892/the-apple-iphone-11-pro.

They already created Red Pro for business use, and market it as "Designed and tested for RAID environments 8-16 Bay NAS", at a 37% markup relative to the Red in my market. My quick Google sleuth indicates those are not SMR. The Re

The Python.org 2.7 branch is unmaintained so that’s hardly a strong point. That last commit, barring some exceptional circumstance, will be the last ever received by that branch.

If you're looking to continue running old codebases without testing and patching this isn't it. There are various incompatibilities with CPython 2.7, some noted in the readme, some noted in issues e.g. [0], and no doubt others unk

I use this idea in embedded work, where the code is split into "modules". The same firmware source is shared amongst various differing pieces of hardware, each of which utilise a different subset of modules.

Read your way down this thread and note that every defence of Nix is merely shifting the blame in it's entirety to some other part of the ecosystem. Rightly or wrongly that's a big problem for Nix if it intends to gain widespread
