Yes, if anything the issue is that the House was capped in seats in 1929 and the population has tripled. Smaller states have an outsized representation in Congress currently.

The contradiction he's pointing out is that they often speak out against so-called "illegals", but as you've documented they enjoy it when business reap the benefits of undocumented labor (i.e. wage suppression).

The excessive amount of emdashes does seem to imply it's LLM slop ragebait. The prompt probably included "make intentional mistakes in your arguments to drive engagement" or something like that.

I haven't downloaded your model but https://www.i-solids.com/ (US-based, FDM and MJF) and https://www.weerg.com/ (Italy, mostly MJF ) will both do instant quotes and you might get reasonable prices fro

Thanks! Feel free to file an issue if there's something missing from the library or the daemon.

Related self-promotion: I built pgtemp ( https://github.com/boustrophedon/pgtemp ) to automate doing exactly these mkdir/initdb/load/destroy steps.

I made https://github.com/boustrophedon/pgtemp to solve this for myself

Thanks for writing the blogpost! I think it's perfectly valid as a fun demonstration of the utility of the wayback machine.

The `parse_program` function is public inside the `bc_util::parser` module, and the parser module is marked public inside `bc_util`, but in the `calc/src/bc.rs` file the `bc_util` mod isn't public, and can't be accessed

There are several sites with instant quotes that are cheaper than Shapeways. PCBWay and JLCPCB both offer similarly-priced very cheap 3d printing and CNC services out of China. Weerg in Italy also offers 3d printing and CNC services and I&#

I'm not sure if it's related, but I have the git branch in my PS1 and I've noticed that it's much slower to show a new prompt when inside very large repositories now, and I don't think that was the case previously.

Linux has seccomp and landlock, which are basically harder-to-use versions of pledge/unveil.

Since the author mentioned rewriting it in Rust, I recently added support to my library extrasafe that allows you to sandbox your own code: https://harrystern.net/extrasafe-user-namespaces.html So if you wanted to call ff

I made a Rust library and cli tool that starts a clean postgres instance for each test. The daemon version transparently proxies your connection to a new postgres server every time you connect to it.

I think the biggest underlying difference is that Rust does not have a language runtime, whereas the other three you've listed do. Since the language runtime can preempt your code at any time, it becomes a lot easier to make async work

Without specifying a particular representation[0] on the struct you want to put in "permanent memory", this seems liable to break any time you recompile the code with different optimization flags, or with a newer or older compiler

There are a lot of companies that make electronics enclosures. Some of them are waterproof. Usually they have a couple pre-drilled mounting flanges to screw in the board as well, and then you'd drill your own external holes for input&#

Non-root can use seccomp-bpf. Chrome already does.

Thanks for the detailed markup! I'm going to take a look at the code tomorrow and see if there's some obvious mistake I've made with the highs/lows. I do remember doing some filtering to only show the lows after noon bec

The vendor toolkit is in C, so often you'll see for newer boards that Arduino/CircuitPython/etc don't support it yet because they have to build their own wrappers. Rust lets you use bindgen to basically immediately have

Thanks for the explanation! I didn't know it was possible to turn off the crystal at all. Maybe I'll splurge for a CurrentRanger as well. I'm definitely on board with changing batteries as infrequently as possible.

Is there a way to fully turn off the RTC on the esp and still go into sleep, or are you using the external RTC to enable/disable the chip itself? I noted this in the "future work" section but I don't have a way to actual

It seems accurate enough at least to pick out clothes for the day. The precipitation forecast sometimes is a bit overzealous later out in the week but seems pretty accurate for the next 24 hours or so.

Yours looks way better than mine - I intentionally didn't show the inside because it's a mess of wires and the screen is held on with masking tape and blue sticky tack and the waveshare esp board wasn't really designed to be

Somehow I completely did not notice this - this must be the bug another commenter (doodlebugging) is talking about. Thanks for pointing it out!

I could have explained that better. The numbers on the Y axis indicate the min/max for the week, and the ones next to the days of the week are min/max for the day. The temperature graph is also scaled to not go all the way to the
