Google234··on Cancer risks increase with alcohol use, leading to over 740k cases last year
I think it would happen way faster than that.
Google234··on Valve Steam Deck
Source for this? I don’t see how this is possible.
Google234··on Faster sorted array unions by reducing branches
Throw it in godbolt and see if the assembly is different. I would doubt not.
Google234··on Carlos Ghosn: How I escaped Japan
I think most people know that Asians in the US commit less crime than other races. As for why, there are probably cultural reasons.
Google234··on Carlos Ghosn: How I escaped Japan
Coming back to the US was dumb, the Taylor’s apparently had a home in Lebanon.
Google234··on Carlos Ghosn: How I escaped Japan
Not much he can do.
Google234··on Carlos Ghosn: How I escaped Japan
The difference between what happened to Ghosn and them was what I was contrasting.
Google234··on Carlos Ghosn: How I escaped Japan
I don’t think they thought they were at risk and weren’t planning on returning to Japan. I would take 1.3 million in return for never visiting a foreign country again.
Google234··on Schrödinger's Code
undefined behaviour and Undefined Behaviour are the same thing… How would the standard define behavior that depends on the implementation. All they say for UB is that there are no requirements for what will happen. How would your perfect language deal with a branch depending on some uninitialized boolean value?
Google234··on France fines Google €500M over copyright row
Have you heard of the legal system?
Google234··on France fines Google €500M over copyright row
This looks like a fine punishing Google for not agreeing to pay a large amount of money for snippets. I’m guessing good faith to the regulators would mean giving in to the news agencies demands.
Google234··on France fines Google €500M over copyright row
This seems like a fine that an appeal can successfully overturn.
Google234··on Three programmers got fired, including me, due to a single app crash
Also how could there be a checklist? They were literally pioneers
Google234··on Three programmers got fired, including me, due to a single app crash
1, you are now really exaggerating. 2, this analogy is really straying far from software engineering. 3, what is your point here?
Google234··on Three programmers got fired, including me, due to a single app crash
I don’t think it would take long for the MIT CS grad to start out performing this “good” experienced dev. The experienced dev could be a principal engineer by 20 years if they cared more about CS.
Google234··on Three programmers got fired, including me, due to a single app crash
Well if you are happy that you found someone that can follow a checklist then fine. I doubt the top tier grad would want that type of job anyway.
Google234··on Cheating in FPS by using a second computer to move mouse
Depends if you are making or buying one.
Google234··on Another access point name that can disable your iPhone’s ability to use Wi-Fi
I hope you don’t ever start thinking that drone based bomb attacks are a “serious problem” for the sake of innocent lives.
Google234··on Audacity fork creator steps down. Claims his life is in danger
Illegal no, bad yes. Also you would probably be partially liable if anything bad happened.
Google234··on Another access point name that can disable your iPhone’s ability to use Wi-Fi
Fuck you for planning to partially brick other people’s iPhones. Do you also like to leave USB sticks around that brick computers for ’mischief’ too?
Google234··on Twitter has lost liability protection in India, government says
By returning the best match to a search first… second one second…
Google234··on “I wish I could have licensed the Id source code releases as BSD”
No, the main point still stands that he wished that he had used the other license. Sensationalist implies that some accuracy is being sacrificed.
Google234··on 70% of San Francisco residents say quality of life has declined: poll
It would be nice if they voted in new people (read: republicans) based on this. I think the city would be improved with some different ideas in government.
Google234··on Let's Build a Chip with Math
Yes. They are wealthy companies and pay well.
Google234··on Google no longer requires AMP, but the replacement might be worse
Let me guess, you also install paywall bypass extensions?
Google234··on Teaching open-source software in North Korea
The best strategy is to leave them alone until their government collapse.
Google234··on Developing Games on Linux: An Interview with Little Red Dog Games
Definitely not to the same extent. EAC is part of an SDK now
Google234··on Developing Games on Linux: An Interview with Little Red Dog Games
1) you’d better be comfortable with false positives, 2) cheaters are smart too and will learn 3) how could a small game dev company afford to create an accurate model?
Google234··on Google drops engineering residency after protests over ‘inequities’
500k is about L6. You ahou get that within 10 years if you want
Google234··on Google drops engineering residency after protests over ‘inequities’
Actually, they could :p. What’s 2% of 9 billion?
