Ok thanks, that makes sense. For anyone else wondering what TSO is, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Large_send_offload But again, couldn't there be NICs with offloading QUIC capabilities? Maybe this could even b

Wouldn't pretty much all of that overhead compared to TCP vanish if QUIC was implemented in the kernel?

VW (in this case AUDI) founded AID ( http://aid-driving.eu/ ) as a software centric powerhouse to work on autonomous driving for all of VW. They employ lots of software engineers directly (I work there)

There are no conan packages on Github, usually you can find recipes along (or separate) the sources. Yeah, the term conan "cache" may be a bit misleading, as it is not only a cache but really your "local remote". As soon

by simfoo 8y ago
No, conan create builds a package from a recipe. Provided you cloned sources form a git remote, you can locally build the conan package without conan ever hitting your network. You can even just export any recipes into your local cache with

by simfoo 8y ago
It is supported. You create the packages using "conan create" from any place with a recipe, which puts the packages into your local conan data directory (called the cache). Any other recipe can then depend on any package that is a

It does not require a server. It supports arbitrary remotes (like git does) to exchange packages, but it works without one as well (just publishing packages to the local cache)

Germany has something like this as well (it's called BAFOEG). It's not for tution (because there isn't any) but for your cost of living during study. It carries zero interest, you only have to pay back half of it and the pay

Just did the test with the drop-down menu on Chromium 71.0.3578.80 and Firefox 63.0.3 both running on Ubuntu 18.10. I can confirm the difference in performance, FF takes at least 1s longer to open the menu

Good question! Looking at https://netmarketshare.com/methodology (the source of the 9% figure), you seem to be mostly right

More monoculture :( I'm just waiting for the day Microsoft announces that they are dropping their own compiler in favor of Clang/LLVM.

Why is it that nowadays all kinds of libraries go down the framework path by forcing/encouraging the user to adapt their workflows to use some kind of custom tooling? I mean look at the readme: Getting Started? Just call "python b

Same here. For me it was primarily the syntax. So many people think that syntax is something you get used to, but I don't. Syntax matters a lot for me, and the way Go does it just isn't compatible with my brain. Regular grammars a

I don't know, but I would be surprised if such a ruling applied to licenses that were never intended for the country they are resold in.

There are no legitimate Windows licenses that only cost 10€. They may activate but successful activation does not imply that you are not breaching Microsofts license agreement and they may decide to deactivate those licenses at any time

Thanks for you comment. I agree that the NSA is not _my_ enemy and I am probably not being targeted. However, as more people start thinking like that, those that _are_ targeted (journalists, lawyers, activists etc.) will have less options t

Their primary servers are exclusively US-based (see https://twitter.com/FastMail/status/981284247284559872 )

by simfoo 8y ago
Correct, but since the reason this question popped up is due to privacy concerns regarding Chromium, I think it's even more important for people to know about these things to make an informed choice. By the way, I really like Fastmail
148.
by simfoo 8y ago
One thing to keep in mind about Fastmail is that all their servers are hosted in the US and they have no plan about changing this (I asked). Post-Snowden this means you can be quite sure that all mails will end up being analysed by the US a
