Depends a lot on humidity. Condensing a fridge full of humid air releases a fair bit of heat. Also a fuller fridge will have much more thermal mass and care less. But yes, exchanging the entire air volume of a fridge every time you open it

> LTO (link time optimisation) is the hot topic for Apple’s new generation of linkers, enabling them to optimise across functions, etc. I was using LTO in 2013 on apple machines... what exactly is new about it now?

Some more things to consider: Sugary things like marinades and rubs will stick more as they caramelize compared to just salt & spices. This is great if you're making a pan sauce, as there's more to deglaze. But I've had m

This is beside the point. The code specifies what the product _is_, not what it "should" be. If you ask for a word processor and I deliver a perfectly bug-free and feature-complete calculator would you really believe it lived up t

Right? How long was it until they figured out that one triceratops was a juvenile rather than a separate species? Though if they still have dna from that specimen it should be pretty easy to tell

Considering the list was generated from data, not just the author's opinion, I wonder what criteria you're using for "should". My guess is a lot more of the general population feels the same (negative) way about it, but

Rancid isn't the same as rotten. Oil going rancid is about oxidation and other chemical degradation. This has nothing to do with "health" of the oil...

Appeals to tradition and authority are not arguments. Look in the mirror for arrogance.

The bluest ones in the JWST images are the higest frequency (shortest wavelength) it can see. These are the longest frequencies hubble can see, so they look reddish. Anything in JWST that is lower frequency (yellow to red) will not be visib

Have an annual salary in mind for a similar role, chop off the last three zeros, and that's my hourly rate. It works out to approximately double which is just enough to account for things you would normally get from an employer: - payr

no, you just need to multiply 440 by (12th root of 2)^k, where k is the number of half-tones above (pos) or below (neg) A440

The same is true for the standard that sets A to 440 Hz. Though they spoil the plot in the abstract. https://www.iso.org/standard/3601.html

Thanks :) I love that I'm not the first/only one to do one of these in Brainfuck (especially in direct response to Ben's series). I have a feeling the approach I take will follow from whatever I decide for RAM zeroing. The pu

MB is 1024 * 1024 * bytes not 1000 * 1000 * bytes. Unless you're a HDD/SSD manufacturer.

So you're defending monocultures as virtuous? OK then. Don't feel like arguing that point... But you're also ignoring the massive amounts of money and legal effort made by, e.g. Apple, in order to guarantee that such a monocu

You seem to have missed my point. It's what those names don't communicate that makes them better. They don't make it seem like they're more broadly applicable than they are. That said, the "sharp" in "re
