Just built a new home in Canada (Ontario), new for code in 2018 was that a conduit be installed from the electrical panel to the garage for a future electric car charger. No infrastructure other than the conduit and junction box were installed, but it's nice to have it for some point in the future.
Yep, very true, but if 1.2.4 *isn't* compatible, you'd need to keep upping the versions, and that's way too much manual intervention. I might as well to to LFS if I wanted that.
I've been using Gentoo for many years, and temporarily switched to Funtoo on my personal laptop. I've since graduated and don't spent nearly as much time on my laptop as I used to, which these days mainly runs MythTV.
I don't think I'd continue with Gentoo - it takes too much time to sort through updates, figure out which packages need to be masked, etc. I'd rather go to Arch next, although I was considering Debian unstable.
Recently, my video card stopped being supported by the newest nvidia graphics, and the newer versions of Xorg weren't compatible. My masked list is growing as more and more packages have deeper dependancies on newer versions of Xorg. I always figured Portage should honour my masked packages and keep everything at the latest version without stepping on my masked packages, but it wants me to do everything manually. If package 1.2.3 is incompatible with my Xorg, I'll mask 1.2.3 and newer. There is a slight chance, however, that 1.2.4 will be compatible, but it doesn't matter, since Portage made me masked out 1.2.3 and newer, I'll never even know.
Instead of fixing a vulnerability or weakness in wifi, lets prevent drones from flying nearby. Because you can totally trust ALL your employees not to plug in a router to perform a similar attack.
Blackberry actually had this right. Apps requested permission when you installed them, you could either allow, deny, or ask it to prompt you first. It would be really awesome if Android had that feature too.
In Canada we have interac e-Transfers - which you email a link to somebody and they click on it and log into their bank account and it deposits the money into their account.
Yeah, I'm still not sure why hardware designers like to put the brightest blue LED on the face of the earth in every piece of electronics. My external HD could be used to land planes!
Note: I haven't consumed any coffee yet today so I can't vouch on the intelligibility of this post.
It's like random in a CD player, it will repeat songs before it even gets to another. I prefer 'shuffle', where the list is randomized and then played through before reshuffling.
A decent indicator is usually the cross walk lights. Usually when they flash the intersection is about to go yellow. Here in Ottawa, the exact moment the hand stops flashing and goes solid red, the light turns yellow. It's even better when they have a countdown. I now instinctively check the crosswalk lights to know whether I need to be checking the light or focusing all my attention on actually driving.
I definitely read that as "lightning", I was going to be impressed if a plant could generate that much electricity! When I saw the reference to a firefly part of me was like "Well, they ARE called lightning bugs!" and then I caught on. Come on coffee, work!
A friend of mine got a new house, and the insulation was that foil backed insulation. There was basically no reception in his house, it was like being in a giant faraday cage.
On the other hand, it'd be good for wifi.
This is more a comparison between runtimes and servers, and less about language.
The reason this is interesting, is it's a very simple test, and hows the maximum performance. Requests can never be faster than returning a simple string. CLR + ISS is slower than JVM + Tomcat. Unfortunately, we don't know where exactly the performance difference lies.

I cringe every time Firefox or Chromium recompile, because I know it's going to be hours before it's done.

Like what? I don't have an iOS device, so I'm not really sure what they're talking about.

With these 'fly-bys' and that 'morse code', how else would we know how to correctly parse things?
What's wrong with Cape Breton? It's a lovely place to visit (says the mainlander)
And then you have Apple Maps, yikes.
I think they meant it was dirty because of all the mining you have to do to get the uranium out of the ground.
Curious, how do you wire up a programmer?
Great idea, but I'd be way to lazy to do something like that. Nor do I have the equipment.
Offtopic, but Vistamark Hotel? I can't seem to find anything on that. Just curious.
I have two Linux machines and two NASes.
The first Linux machine, my laptop, rsyncs itself to the other Linux machine and to a QNAP NAS that's in RAID5.
The second Linux machine (desktop) backs itself up to the QNAP as well.
The DNS323 gets backed up to the QNAP NAS and to the desktop Linux machine
The QNAP nas gets backed up once a quarter to an offsite location.
I figure in my plan, I have enough redundancy and backup that I can recover to most failures.
And we (the bitcoin users) LIKE it that way! No meddling gov't to ruin the fun!
Granted, I play with bitcoin as a hobby. If my wallet was compromised tomorrow, it wouldn't be all THAT terrible. There's not much there.
Reminds me of "Reno Depot", not sure why they changed the name AND the colour, but whatever.

Excuse me for being ignorant, but what's "SMB"?
