But they're already a customer, just a customer without a subscription.

Probably, but you'd have to write a custom renderer for it.

> all applications need to look like rounded squares.

Looking at the screenshots there are several browsers (Chrome, Edge, Brave and even Safari) for which the icon neither has a background nor rounded corners.

It makes a slight difference on my system, python 3.12.0

    In [1]: def test_1():
    ...:     i = 10_000_000
    ...:     r = 0
    ...:
    ...:     while i>0:
    ...:         i = i-1
    ...:         r += min(i, 500)
    ...:
    ...:     return r

    In [2]: def test_2():
    ...:     i = 10_000_000
    ...:     r = 0
    ...:     local_min = min
    ...:
    ...:     while i>0:
    ...:         i = i-1
    ...:         r += local_min(i, 500)
    ...:
    ...:     return r

   In [3]: %timeit -n 1 -r 10 test_1()
   2.14 s ± 58.4 ms per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 10 runs, 1 loop each)

   In [4]: %timeit -n 1 -r 10 test_2()
   1.94 s ± 47.8 ms per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 10 runs, 1 loop each)

The code uses unaligned load and store instructions, so it should be possible to trigger memory access to unmapped addresses.

They don't want to link to their competition, so they'd rather not link to their own service and if users complain they tell them to complain to the EU.

I always took it more as readable code.

In my opinion the only good part of that book is the title.

It's unrelated to the for loop, the for only changes the variable, there are other ways you can do that and you'll run into the same "oddity"

    def test():
        n = 0
        def a():
            return n
        n = 1
        def b():
            return n
        return a, b

    a, b = test()
    a() == 1
    b() == 1

Most gas in Germany comes via pipelines from Norway, the Netherlands and Belgium. LNG is at around 10%.

In that case I'm sure current FPGAs are already capable of emulating the MIPS CPU of a PS2.

Why would you want to emulate an old crappy MIPS CPU using a relatively expensive FPGA? The whole idea of emulating old consoles is to be independent of the hardware so you can play your old games on your computer or phone.

I'm getting almost 2MB (5MB uncompressed) just for a google search.

Yes, but maybe I want to shoot myself in the foot or am willing to take the risk, it's my computer and nobody can tell me what to do with it. That's why I like C. I've been writing Python for almost two decades now, all the new languages are trying even more to tell me how to do things or that I'm doing them wrong, screw that, I don't want to be coddled or patronised by the language I'm using, I'm writing C.

Your example using Turkish isn't that good. Turkic languages like Turkish or Kazakh switched to a latin alphabet because the arabic or cyrillic writing systems didn't suit them. The cyrillic script was explicitly created for slavic languages, so there's no need for slavic languages to switch to a latin based alphabet.

Interestingly they're also looking from Smalltalk developers, didn't expect that.

Öhrli is actually the swiss german diminutive of Ohr (ear). Swiss german uses -li a lot for diminutives, whereas standard german uses -chen or -lein, the vowel of them stem is turned into an umlaut Ohr -> Öhrli/Öhrchen/Öhrlein.

In my opinion there are lots of good looking but badly researched videos on YouTube.

MIDI 2.0 has attributes in note-on messages. Attribute type 0x3 gives you 7 bits for a note in semitones and 9 bits for a fractional part of a semitone, so a resolution of around 0.2 cents.

> you don't get 32 bits of resolution in your CCs with MIDI 2.0

The standard (section 7.4.6) defines 32 bit resolution for CCs.

None of the implementations support negative numbers, but the rules say integer which includes negative numbers, so that should be a legal move.

Interesting, it appears I've encountered an impossible combination of numbers: [2, 5, 1, 3]

The only possible move is to add 1 and 3. Can't ever split a 2 as that would result in [1, 1], can't split the 5 because that would be [4, 1] or [3, 2], can't split the 3, as that would be [2, 1] or [1, 2], can't add the 5 to anything as that would be larger than 5.

DECT uses 1880–1900 MHz in Europe, other countries use similar frequencies, that's not an ISM band.

It's most likely 300mm, otherwise they'd have to make their own wafers.

Keeping up with words is the job of dictionaries (pretty sure those exist for English), not of language regulation. For German language regulation means stuff like you're allowed to write Foto instead of Photo, but always Physik and never Fysik, or if you combine words like Schiff and Fahrt into Schifffahrt should it be written with two or three f, rules on when to use ß instead of ss and so on.

The patch download shows up as a download once you put a disc in for installation. The console still installs from disc and you can usually play without the patch. I actually had a game that failed to install from disc, the replacement disc worked fine. So unless this is something very recent I have no idea why an internet connection would have an impact on disc installations.

Was watching Goldfinger a few weeks ago and had to think of this plane when I saw the title. The Fiat Multipla of airplanes.

If I'm not mistaken it's used instead of actual nuclear weapons tests. Wikipedia says the following about the NIF

> It supports nuclear weapon maintenance and design by studying the behavior of matter under the conditions found within nuclear explosions.

This is what I did and then was confused why everyone else I talked to thought it was a hard problem.
