Do you hate e-bikes, or do you hate city planning that treats e-bikes as second-class citizens, and forces them into direct competition with cars and pedestrians?

Maybe more than that if you have a sub-optimal hash map implementations. There are a bunch of those floating around - for example, Java's build-in HashMap has traditionally been kneecapped by lack of value types, and if you are not car

You are right, but I think my point stands - anyone getting caught for this ought to make the others think twice

Well, they do their best, they don't do any userspace post-processing. They can't really help whatever the firmware in the camera and/or the camera driver are already doing.

The Blackwell is going to be a lot faster for the same memory capacity than a Mac Studio, surely?

I was on both. I honestly don't think mojo.lang.org is much clearer - the front page says "GPU kernels + Python + metaprogramming", and the last of those is something Python already has out of the box. The QuickStart doesn&#x

I feel like this language would really benefit from some sort of 1-pager overview. I just spent a fair bit of time on the official site, and I still don't think I have a very good grasp of what problem this language aims to solve, or w

I'm curious what happens if instead of picking the winners, you try to exclude the losers. Cut anything whose fundamentals put them below your coin flip line, keep the rest. If your result that good fundamentals are necessary but not s

For rescuing small numbers of people from a helicopter, yes. If you have a large number of people in the water, and you are rescuing from a surface vessel, you would likely deploy netting (at the very least as backup)
