Action which I find much more useful than Back is Up. I’m always annoyed when someone hands me their Android to do something and I need to go through 10 screens hitting Back instead of Up. I almost never want Back. I want Up. This is also r

A similar warning could be enabled in GCC using the flag -Wsign-compare .

In this case more important than any runtime overflow/underflow checks is the fact that the compiler will check that comparison operands are of the same type instead of inserting an implicit cast. Instead the programmer is forced to in

Which is why the Rust compiler itself uses a non-cryptographic hash, which takes just 3 x86 instructions and can work on 8 bytes at a time: < https://github.com/rust-lang/rustc-hash/blob/master/src&#x2F

Given that shutter sounds are produced, I'd guess the shutter is opened[1]: > During this time, shutter sounds will be produced. [1]: < https://helpguide.sony.net/ilc/2010/v1/en/contents/

Most do. Some, like Nikon Z8 and Z9, don't.

You’re right. I misremembered. The term is “shutter life”. Same result though.

Does it affect RAW photos or only JPEGs?

Every photo taken shortens the life of a sensor.

Same. And same selection of OS-es. :)

You’ve just compared a densely populated city with a sparsely populated state that’s several times the size of the country the aforementioned city is located in. And then started talking about highways.

In my opinion, the best way to interact with ETW is through DTrace. Microsoft’s GUIs like WPA-Xperf are so buggy and unreliable that using them feels utterly futile. DTrace on Windows on the other hand is very usable.

No. I mean getting drenched, when forecast predicted no rain. 1mm isn’t really noticeable by humans.

by yakubin 3y ago
Absolutely. 15 years ago I could reasonably trust forecasts regarding whether it’s going to rain in a given location 2 days in advance. Today I can’t trust forecasts about whether it’s raining currently .

Another instance of pedestrian congestion that’s really jarring to me are serial pedestrian crossings on roads with opposing traffic lanes separated by pavement, often on intersections. It may look like this: < https://maps.app

It was Go. Rust has many converts from C++. But from scripting languages too. It’s a pretty heterogenous programmer-base.

In this instance I’ll say burn it if you want. Although it leading to a natural wildfire is highly dependent on local climate. Where I live, for most of the year it’s too cold and humid for anything like this to happen, except during maybe

It’s going to take time for a new tree to consume the CO2 produced by burning a tree. If instead you leave a tree standing and burn coal, you will produce less CO2, so it’s going to take less time to consume it (and the older tree is going

> Energy output is directly related to carbon content. More energy density from coal mean more co2. No. It means you need to burn a larger volume of wood to get the same amount of energy. And when you increase the volume, you increase

by yakubin 3y ago
CO2 doesn’t disappear from the atmosphere the moment you plant trees. In fact, burning wood is worse than burning coal here, because, for the same amount of energy provided, burning wood is going to emit more CO2 than burning coal.

For video you typically set shutter speed to half a frame. The most common frame rate is 24FPS, so you get 1/50 shutter speed. It’s lousy for a photo, but good for video , since you want motion blur, so that the video isn’t janky. You

The problem here is that lots of patches are sent to too many people. Same will happen if you CC a mailing list with many subscribers in patches sent to Gerrit[1] or GitHub for a vibrant project. People will just start ignoring those notifi

But when you move the laser emitter in your hand you're controlling the speed in that 2d space, not in 3d. You don't ever affect the position of photons in the Z dimension. So you’re not constrained by speed in 3d which would late

Neither. Both would be attempts at assigning goals to things that aren’t persons. Fallacy of teleological thinking.

"asynchronous meeting" is an oxymoron.
