Not just you. There's been a huge pushback in the local music community around this. Concerts listings now prominently feature the name of the poster designer! Humans FTW.

Radio is still cool! But it's just not really on the FCC-licensed bands anymore. Independent Internet radio stations keep the spirit alive. Look around, there very well might be a vibrant local music-and-more community right in your

And in truth it's a paradox. The better a company is (generally correlated to an empowered workforce with a sense of agency and purpose), the harder it is to extract profit for the capitalist class. Which helps explain the "need&

The argument being made here is really incredible when you unpack it. 1) The construction of the Empire State Building was particularly effective due to the depth of human-to-human collaboration. 2) Isn't it great that we can burn a bu

I can tell you as a resident of New York City that the negative effect of the automobile on the built environment is very much present here as well.

If your implication is that stencil art does not take effort then perhaps you may not fully appreciate Banksy. Works like Gaza Kitty or Flower Thrower don’t just appear haphazardly without effort.

Fortunately they do, and in fact the article makes that clear. +1 for reading to the end of the paragraph that was quoted.

Interesting that your first counterexample is Charlie Parker. I've been listening to a lot of Phil Schaap's Bird Flight recently ( https://www.philschaapjazz.com/sections/bird-flight ). It's funny to see

FWIW It's not at all clear to me how this requirement would be implemented in practice: "This syntax would explicitly be limited to orphan implementations."

The classic AVR instruction set does not include multiplication, you have to be targeting a device that supports AVRe+, such as an ATmega rather than an ATtiny. Try adding -mmcu=avr5 and it will show up pretty quick. Example: https:&#x2F

What an incredibly on-the-nose anecdote, I love it! The term of art for this strategy is "size to the horizon". Imagine you're looking across an open plain. The trees and rocks closer to you are bigger and you can make out

I apologize if my comment came off as snark. Your comment was nothing but pasted text which ommitted relevant detail, so it was not clear what the intent was. In context, to me, it did not seem to be illuminating. It actually seemed to b

That's decidedly not a data race, however.

On the one hand, we like to encourage learning here. On the other, we prefer not to copy-paste a bunch of possibly-irrelevant content. Well, forgive me for pasting in a StackOverflow answer that may be relevant here: https://st

Test code is code. It's as much of a burden as every other piece of code you are troubled with, so you must make it count. If you're finding it repetitive and formulaic, take that opportunity to identify the next refactoring. Ju

This. The right way to structure database access is a result type per tuple, not an object type per table.

Wouldn't standard ANSI SQL's information_schema be sufficient to build such an interface? I'm struggling to see how an ORM is necessary.

Lots of folks are doing front panels in PCB these days. They're precision and sturdy and you already have the workflow set up.

My guideline with pointer tricks is: if you're not just masking bits it's too complicated for real use.

Oh that's frightening they shift the entire pointer by the alignment

I see that in the readme but I don't see where that's handled in the bitmasking. It appears to be universally masking high-order bits here: https://github.com/irrustible/ointers/blob/1961f75bbb9818d

Am I misreading the bitmask code? It looks like (in addition to a few other ideas) it's using the old "stick a few extra bits in an aligned pointer", but it seems to be only manipulating high bits, whereas aligned pointer zer

Not a lawyer here. Why does an Article III judge need to get involved, and not in other administrative matters, like say, in an administrative immigration case? edit: further investigation has indicated that it's immigration law which

With even a basic history of labor power under capitalism it's clear that police are one of the greatest threats to organozed workers due to their role enforcing the capitalist status quo. Don't expect a wolf in sheeps' cloth

That doesn't mean that naive single-threaded code is necessarily interrupt-safe. If the allocator is interrupted and the interrupt service routine needs to make use of the allocator's data structures for any reason there could ve

And the beautiful thing about domains is that they're hierarchical, so you can arbitrarily split your trust boundaries.
