Mainframes used to use water cooling. See old IBMs.
How else would one cool 1.8kW per MCM?:) But let me reformulate that: Mainframes are increasingly using water cooling. The air-cooling option for the IBM systems was still available at least with the previous generation of products and probably still is.
I'm not familiar with new ones. I last worked on such things in the early 90s. It's good to hear that it's still going strong.
This is true. My SW development is mostly around coming up with better algorithms for data analysis and sticking them in a command line wrapper to test.
This new top-end CPU comes in at 400w and requires water cooling. Who the hell wants water cooling in the data center!? This just seems like a massive disaster waiting to happen. Also, they're no longer socketed, but instead soldered directly to the motherboard, just like SoCs.

On windows I have to install a nightmare package of huge blobs of software to compile a C program, and then I find it doesn't even have getopt and the resulting executable is buried 6 levels down in an undocumented build directory.
On a macintosh or a linux machine, I can type gcc my_program.c -o my_program and I'm done.
It never kept up with the changing authentication landscape.
eM client demonstrates how to smoothly set up connectivity with the different email hosts. A free email client that was as good would be nice. Updating TBird with those features would be a great idea.
>As I said, 1C isn't actually constant on a Lithium battery (Again, DON'T ACTUAlLY TRY CHARGING AT 1C AT HOME).
Why not? When the data sheet specifically gives you the places in the CCCV curve that you can charge at 1C (1.2C in the case of the cells that I do charge at home).
This is true. However there is generally a lot of user review available to the guest before booking. There is also host reviewing of the guests. So everyone is generally on their best behaviour if they plan to keep using AirBnB. I've been in some pretty bad hotels and yet the reviews will be great - probably heavily polluted with fake reviews. AirBnB reviews are limited to actual guests who have been there.
The issue of a hotel not being available seems to be a bigger one. Try getting a place in a non-hotel-dense area. There will usually be AirBnBs. So sometimes there isn't even an option.
The risk is low. 2 years of renting out and we've had precisely 0 problems with guests.
There are plenty of reasons to no film guests in their rooms. (A) Not being a total shit (B) Avoiding being arrested and thrown in jail (C) Avoiding losing AirBnB income.
>Airbnb is one of the most ridiculous things I've ever heard of. It has nothing *but* advantages for the people renting those places out, and nothing *but* disadvantages for the person doing the renting.
Advantages for the host : They get money. Advantages for the guest : It usually costs less. It's often available in places that hotels are not available. Disadvantages for the host : They don't get to use the property they are renting out for their own purposes. There's a shitton of cleaning to do. Disadvantages for the guest : Ummm. You don't get SPG points. I dunno. I host and I use airbnbs and it's all around more convenient and cheaper than hotels.

2012 and 2013 articles?
Those journalist's unfounded claims didn't pan out did they?
What if I already have a makefile that works fine on every other platform?
I use ya_getopt that I found on github when trying to compile C on Windows in VS.
I guess Florinert is out of favor these days, being a CFC.

Graphics is what pyplot does.
Your copy and paste skills are remarkable.

Power RF uses water cooling.
Power machinery uses water cooling.
Internal combustion engines use water cooling.
Do it right and it's reliable.
A) They almost never make you turn any device on.
Israel made me turn my laptop on.
B) Turning it on does not in any way prove that there is not ALSO an explosive in the device.
It can prove that you ran out the battery on the 17 hour flight to Tel Aviv
C) If it was a serious risk then they would prohibit carrying laptops or they would take more serious precautions than what they actually do.
See Israel.

What makes you think that saturated fat is unhealthy?
Maybe you haven't noticed that that was 1950s science which was heavily flawed and we have moved on since then.
>Same reason you wouldn't consider Waffle House national.
I wouldn't consider it's product to be food either.

>Before the cascade begins of ever-shorter UIDs, we all pretty much joined in the same year.
We have a new game now, of ever increasing UIDs.
I doubt I'll ever get the opportunity to test that. It's not my specialty.
Understanding better doesn't stop them shooting people in their own homes.
Yes. We make of point of saying we won't come in the room unless you ask us to.

Amen to that.

OK. I will in May when I next go through SFO.

How is an inductive loop wireless?
It uses a lot of wire.
