Add some pontoons and call it a day.

Only Trip gets that privilege.

Counter argument on the Borg encounter: By accelerating the Federation encounter with the Borg, he likely prevented more suffering than had he not intervened, as it would have led to an unaware Federation not being prepared for Wolf 359. Yes, the Federation survived that just by the skin of their teeth, but they survived.

I’d rather people use this than reuse the same password everywhere.

Just use main. I’m not bothered by either, but I’m not in the demographic that would be bothered by master, so I use main and STFU. It takes way less effort to switch to main (if you haven’t already) than to come up with all this rhetoric about why master shouldn’t trigger people.

Transcoding video for streaming.

Just the tip.

In some cases those were load bearing cables, too

Knocking is usually reads (from the header seeking), brrr is heavy writes.

Counter-argument: If AI code was good, the owners would create official accounts to create contributions to open source, because they would be openly demonstrating how well it does. Instead all we have is Microsoft employees being forced to use and fight with Copilot on GitHub, publicly demonstrating how terrible AI is at writing code unsupervised.

Obligatory “/laughs in alpine” response.

HeliBoard. However for swipe typing it’ll take some practice to get used to, it’s more sensitive to swipe accuracy and you may need to reset your muscle memory.

Do you know the main function of freshmen courses? It’s to make sure that every student has the same base knowledge before going into sophomore level courses. It’s giving the students from shitty high school backgrounds an opportunity to catch up with those from private schooling and those from school boards that didn’t provide sufficient challenges. These courses don’t need a higher teacher to student ratio, they just need students to pay attention to the lectures and talk to the TA if they’re stuck.

I don’t know how you extrapolate “no emphasis on learning” from “large classes”. The classes are large because they can afford to be large. They teach introductory courses, and their goal is to even out the baseline before the students go into sophomore courses. Freshmen come from many different education systems - private vs public, local vs out of state/province/country, fresh out of school vs returning to education after working, etc. This is also why these courses can be graded with standardized testing, because they set the standard themselves.

That may work in senior courses, but a freshman class with hundreds of students needs standardized tests.

From the article:

a condition shaped less by genetics and more by prolonged exposure to toxicants like air pollution, industrial solvents and, above all, pesticides.

Identification of Parkinson’s disease coincides with the industrial revolution, so the claim is still plausible.

Are you on a convertible laptop? Is Fedora perhaps thinking you’re on keyboard-less mode? Is there an OSD keyboard enabled that may be overriding your input?

And get rid of the pornoscanners.

You’re missing the forest for the tree here.

Given identical client setups, two clones of a git repo are identical. That’s duplication, and it’s an intentional feature to allow concurrent development.

A CDN works by replicating content in various locations. Anycast is then used to deliver the content from any one of those locations, which couldn’t be done reliably without content duplication.

Blockchains work by checking new blocks against previous blocks. In order to fully guarantee the validity of a block you need to guarantee every block, going back to the beginning of the chain. This is why each root node on a chain needs a full local copy of it. Duplication.

My point is that we have a lot of processes that rely on full or partial duplication of data, for several purposes: concurrency, faster content delivery, verification, etc. Duplicated data is a feature, not a bug.
