Why should they apologize? All they did was point out that you just provided a counter example, not statistics (thus "we don't know how prevalently your scenario is" yet), and share a personal opinion. No accusations…
I'm not informed of the Postgres's internals, but, maybe, that can be solved by grouping threads into different processes depending on which set of extensions they request.
Brazil and Argentina also tortured and killed some people, except they got nothing in return.
I would argue that only the latter is truly a job. The other points are things we have tied to jobs (like hobbies), but, perhaps, we should strive to decouple from them so that we can pave a way that doesn't need…
You know climate change isn't just places getting hotter, right?
Bear in mind that this article is talking, specifically, about daily radiation dosages, not nuclear accidents. Still, look no further than Fukushima meltdown and the potential loses already dropped significantly (only…
But there is such a thing as too much safety. Imagine if we banned airplanes because there's a crash in a decade. Ultimately, safety is not absolute and is about tradeoffs. The question, thus, is whether the tradeoff is…
It can. Easily. Wayland is a new protocol, without an established implementation; X11 is an older protocol, while Xorg was an established implementation and XLibre is trying to modernize its codebase. Recall…

Why are you asking the author about that? It's rather clear they are just trying to present Oracle's perspective, not whether Oracle will be the one who will champion the next technological revolution.

Unless your hardware is exotic (or actively anti-consumer), most devices are well supported. If you wouldn't mind, what issues did you have recently?
I don't think the "languages" they said meant specifically "programming languages". In HCI, computer interfaces can be referred as languages as they come with their own affordances and symbolism that is not directly…
No, they are asking for clarification.
Whenever your designer team decides to use that layout. It seems to lend well for social medias (I have been requested to apply it in a non-art social media) and galleries.
Masonry layouts are a general class of layouts. They aren't specific to Pinterest.
Interesting for a later search, but moral rights aren't about compensation though: > The moral rights include the right of attribution, the right to have a work published anonymously or pseudonymously, and the right to…
The most basic incentive is for the fun of it. There are plenty of people who publish stuff without hoping to get directly compensated for it. Even otherwise, ideas have a nasty habit of breaking free from the first…
You don't have to make function templated to use span. Given: void DoSomething(void* p, size_t numBytes); Presuming p to mean a buffer of bytes, the direct declaration equivalent using span would be: void…
I see this being thrown sometimes, but, honestly, it feels like a "HN is becoming reddit" situation. Would be interesting to see a study or a review of recent comments to confirm if that's really true.
I think it's you who has a very narrow vision of what a hackathon can be. Hackathons can both be about developing your programming skills or coming up with, then presenting new and interesting ideas. In a sense, the…
In comparison to a plain void* and a separate size, it's still an improvement. As others mentioned, void* suffers from the same problem (it might point to a type that is not trivially copyable), except it has more…
But these compilation times optimizations don't significantly undermine the other goals. Given that we're talking about std::span<T>, a pretty small template all things considered, I think practical evidence (e.g.…
If youif you are using C++, your last concern will be compilation times. By this point, just use C.
I don't see how it is unrelated. If have a custom type `A` with an overload on `+`, it will only affect places I used custom type `A`. If there wasn't operator overloading, I would just have to use a different notation…
