I think the algorithm is probably incorrect. A number starting with 0 should be treated lexically not numerically. Otherwise you have a situation where img_1_01.jpg and img_01_1.jpg does not have a complete ordering.

there's a setting in the developer options called OEM unlock which allows the bootloader to be unlocked It is still shipped locked. Unlocking wipes the device. It also doesn't work if your device is carrier locked.

I think the plan is for each GP's prescribing system/appointment system to export enough data that you can just use the NHS app for your needs. i know I can book appointments through it. Obviously doesn't help when the GP is

I thought there was already common terminology for probability of side effects [0] Very common = greater than 1 in 10 Common = 1 in 100 to 1 in 10 Uncommon [formerly 'less commonly' in BNF publications] = 1 in 1000 to 1 in 100 Rar

> The only thing that concerns me now is the Rust code in kernel is not GPLv2. Not sure if that's intentional. The only code that isn't GPLv2 is the alloc crate. Which is basically a copy of upstream with some changes. All the

From what I understand a rust panic will just call BUG(). There is no support for unwinding as such. Most likely you would have to use .get() which returns an Option rather than [] array index which panics.

It's quite scary that the House of lords (unelected peers), previously seen as undemocratic may be the only thing stopping the commons from rushing through legislation as they don't have to pander to public option. Which I guess w

To be fair they have been monitoring deaths before [0], just the first time there's a national warning to the public. Quite a few schools have decided to use this warning to close as they are unable to manage heat on their premises [1]

Regarding caching and memoisation. Isn't the main benefit memory usage saving. I wonder if it's possible to do parsing for speed and then background deduplication for memory savings. (I don't know what the status is of multit

Probably some weird carrier RCS registration issue. My wife uses a s10e on EE (UK) and I use a Pixel 4 XL on Vodafone (UK) and I get RCS messages between us. Only use it for the delivery and read notifications but it works. I do remember ha
