Yes but not precisely. There is an uncertainty that is difficult to remove. However, if you combine it with modern image recognition and you know your target it will be probably enough
This field is like a minefield for critical thinkers given the sensitivity around the issue and the difficulty in finding rigorous answers. In stuff like that I don't trust the mainstream, nor I do trust any publication…
Some elegant abstractions are created too. JS modules, for example. Or, in another field, the Language Server Protocol. But yes, humans are humans and everything that is "simple" will get built upon and then become the…
The church defended a scientific assertion based on theology and used their (absolute) political power to curb other worldviews. Even assuming that Galileo could not prove beyond reasonable doubt heliocentrism as a…
In fact gluons have a QCD charge, they just don't have a QED (electric) charge. That QCD charge is basically one color and one anticolor, minus the trace. So there are 8 different basis vectors that define the space for…
In defense of the Remarkable its primary purpose is a very useful use-case. No iPad or Android tablet could get me to ditch paper and notebooks altogether. The Remarkable did it. And since it is hackable the community…
Their SIMD vectorized instructions are very neat and clean up the horrible mess of x64 ISA (I am not familiar enough with Neon and SVE so I don't know if ARM is a mess too)
I am waiting for "React Native for the Web for Native" as a tool to port React Native for the Web pages to native apps. To be followed by "React Native for the Web for Native for the Web" to port those apps back to the…
You'd be surprised by how much water has been saved in droughts by encouraging this kind of small scale efforts. E.g. the Cape Town water crisis
They are breaching a walled garden. And they are looking at a system with capabilities unseen before. And Apple has its prestige. I can totally understand the excitement that goes into this. Of course it's like working…
That cross-compiling is still so thorny in 2021 is in my opinion a big failure of software engineering. The creator of Zig is maintaining a very accessible and immediate cross compilation infrastructure for Zig and C…
Probably I am lucky but I don't meet a lot of people who use Twitter outside Twitter. I believe that Twitter is not a cultural influencer as much as a product used by people who already have a rather shallow philosophy.…
I wouldn't look at the mouth of a gifted horse. Their closed source binary is not huge. Also I don't worry about updates. Why would I connect my notebook to the Internet anyway? I just don't install them. I guess it's a…
In the rM1 you just write to a framebuffer device in /dev/fb0 to write on the screen. It's so easy you could probably write an application that does that, compile it for ARM, load it via scp and run it. All in 15…
Interesting. As an aside the Remarkable runs Linux too and it's somewhat hackable, but its main application is closed source, as is the drawing of the screen (accomplished with temperature dependent waveforms via…
> Is that really so much to ask?... Yes. You cited requirements that to be satisfied together require a huge effort. You want something that can "just work" and is also cross-platform, power user friendly (LaTeX), and…
I disagree. Such tooling would probably be annoying for pro users and beginners alike. The reasoning involved is deeper than what an automatic tool can accomplish. It requires knowledge of computers (disk access speed)…
The article is from 2012 and today in 2021 Iran still has no nuclear weapons. So it did, after all, slow them down. This tactic has been successful for the Israelis against the Egyptian missile program in the '50s,…
I don't know why but for a moment I read this comment in horror imagining language developers implementing telemetry in the compilers and tooling themselves, then relying on them to "improve the experience" by changing…
Linux as a system is very ill-defined. I'd argue that GNU/Linux by definition contains glibc even if they are not in the same tree and musl based distributions are a variation which you could call "musl/Linux".
HPC courses can be pretty good for that. Stuff like OpenMP is great for doing quick things like a parallel for cycle
Perhaps it's me but I like to be able to edit articles and see discussions, and I haven't figured out how to do that from the mobile version. So I find myself constantly fighting the website to access the Desktop version
It seems Microsoft and Intel are threatened by the M1 and had to do this hastily. Hence the rush for Windows support in spite of Linux.
Let's be real. There are more physicists than fitting research problems. That's why your average physics PhD graduate is typically employed outside of the field they learned and earns less than an average React…
TIL, thanks! So Europe does have some big players in the chip production facility infrastructure, after all!
