Could it be "command line flag"?

My Seattle Mazda was hit by this bug. The backup camera still functions for the most part, although it does flicker and occasionally blank for a second or two (presumably while the system reboots). Annoying, but not horrible.

It looks like -> on a line of its own means "everything before this implies everything after it". So, for your second example you want x,Hx->Mx -> Hs->Ms which returns "The statement is necessarily true

X-ray lenses don't really exist, although you can produce focused beams (using either reflection or simply collimation). So, these methods typically involve scanning a sample and measuring some fluorescence line (which gets emitted in

In the nexus presentation, they mentioned that a few symbol keys were moved up to soft keys to fit the keyboard while keeping a laptop-like distance between keys. So, it might not be super convenient, but you can likely still type your pass

If you treat the indices as between elements and include all elements that are between the start and end elements, there is only one reasonable choice. It would be more "special" to include elements that are outside of the specifi

This is especially true if you have multimodal distributions (such as the income datasets in the article). Although its true that there are simple algebraic properties that allow you to calculate the mean and variance of the total populatio

I don't think that will actually change anything. Two positively slowing lines (of any slope) have, by definition correlation = 1.0. The "random data" he used is just a small amount of noise on top of the line(s).

Here, "good" is on the left and "bad" is on the right. The color is orthogonal (it gives the number of operations with latencies in a given bucket). For example, a red square on the right side of the output would have de

For apps that have been popular for a long time, I wonder if there is a negative bias in reviews (beyond that already present in all online reviews). A customer who gets an update that breaks an app they use every day is very likely to subm

I agree with you on the need for good dedicated test engineers, but even an apparently low crash rate can be damaging at scale. If you have 10,000,000 customers, a crash rate of 0.17% (over some unspecified time period) is 17,000 crashes (i

I agree with your first two paragraphs. But, be careful about the last. The pilot wave in Bohmian mechanics is not a wave in space time, but rather a separate physical entity. Basically the dynamics of both the particle and its pilot wave a

That was a fun one. I seem to recall it taking a day or so to generate a suitably colliding prefix pair using publicly available code. After that the rest was pretty easy.

This scheme is only broken if all entities fail to keep their keys secure. In the event of a key compromise, updated keys could be pushed out and used to reencrypt. Of course that presents another weakness. (Who signs the update? What if

Friendly pedantic clarification: you get better location accuracy when WiFi is on by combining access point location databases with the GPS signal.

Although having the data already on an SSD would surely be faster, I don't see how it would be faster to copy from HDD to SSD and then process as opposed to just processing from the HDD.

From the article it sounds like Chrome is replacing the URL (which is difficult for humans to parse) with an "origin chip" that contains just the domain name. This improves on the use case you point out.

Why was this downvoted? The discussion in these articles has all seemed to ignore the fact that engineers were explicitly excluded from the agreements.

No this does not work. Group MMS from iohones are still dropped (as the article clearly describes).
