That's the issue with WASM. Very, very few people want a limited VM that's only good for CPU-intensive pure functions. The WASM group has redirected a huge amount of resources to create something almost nobody wants.

My credit card company has a "dispute charge" button in the transaction history. It's one click. Sounds like you should look into a different provider.

Machine translation is a great example. It's also where I expect AI coding assistants to land. A useful tool, but not some magical thing that is going to completely replace actual professionals. We're at least one more drastic

Having worked in medical software for a long time now, it's not surprising. Medical software is purchased by upper management based on features. Usability is rarely considered, and hard to evaluate anyway since it depends on integrati

Obviously being LLM generated is a good data point because it shows that the OP isn't arguing against the statements of the review itself. It's also good for the editor to know about. LLMs represent a new acute threat to review q

The demand for human radiologists never actually went down, though[1]. There is improved efficiency due to technology, but it hasn't kept up with increased demand for scanning and increased patient volumes. There's also induced

Amusingly a poster above indicated they had issues with multiple Subarus, and another had issues with Hondas (which is what has worked well for me). People on this forum want it to be a technology issue, and I'm sure it is to some exte

A lot of good comments here, here's one point I haven't seen: If you can, just respond tomorrow. Use the evening to exercise, visit friends, play trivia, etc. I find it can help you force your brain to see the comments as just

The creators of these images assigned the rights to adobe, including allowing Adobe to develop future products using the images. So yes, this is perfectly fair. It's completely different than many (most?) other companies, which are tr

I think this is a very insightful comment. If you're an experienced individual contributor, the shift to remote work was great. You got less oversight at work and more free time in your personal life. This category is a lot of the ha

Bad news for big tech conglomerates that want to take the work of individuals and sell it back to them. It's good news for the artists and programmers whose work was being copied, though.

There are "sandwich style" SFF cases which mount the GPU parallel to the back of the motherboard, if that's what you mean. It's more for space than for airflow, but you can get good airflow too with the right design (e.

Every time this comes up, lots of people start with the assumption that coding problems have a large amount of false negatives. Because of this perceived "truth", I had the same worry when we started to implement a coding problem.

The Eclipse incremental compiler is faster than IntelliJ on any decently sized project. Something like 20-60 times faster for us (<1s vs. 20-60s). I think the UI of IntelliJ is snappier, so for small projects that leads to people saying

History repeats itself. Before people thought Java would save everyone from ever having to think about native dependencies. Turned out not so much, although it works "OK" for desktop these days. Now everyone thinks Docker is goin

Many (basically all?) Java libraries that use native code have pre-compiled code for all platforms. They'll just work on all platforms. We've been upgrading our dependencies for arm64 support; for the most part it is as simple as

by yoden 4y ago
Yeah, it's hilarious to see Docker so misused. Most Java/.Net environments will just work on any system without Docker. Adding Docker gives you a bunch of native platform and emulation pains you wouldn't have otherwise.

No it's not. They're still allowing an exception that allows any number of online classes. They're just requiring at least one in-person credit, and for the university to say it is at least partially open.

Weird article. After reading it I agree more with the points it's trying to refute. You can't use the existence of a 1995 law to prove the GDPR doesn't have problems. The whole reason the GDPR got written was because the 19
