Blowing up as in catastrophically failing.
Not blowing up as in to the moon.

The camera was never a priority for me. Seemed fine for my very basic needs, but I can’t comment on it’s actual features or quality

I used Graphene for a month. It was absolutely amazing, except from not having contactless payment.
The sooner they win their lawsuit against Google to get 3rd party OS attestation the better. I’ll jump back in a heartbeat

I’ve played it fine on steam proton on arch

Clearly you use your keyboard to dry you off

If you think coal mines are bad, wait till you see the conditions in the Alexa mines!

If they weren’t using VCS, I bet they have creds embedded in the source.

I think the headcanon is that the shortest distance is impressive.
Either a different faster and harder route through “the kessel”. Or that 12 parsecs is the absolute minimum distance it can be done in, perfectly apexing every corner.

Sqlite is a great embedded database.
If you are storing lots and lots of information in a JSON file, CSV file, or coming up with your own serialisation… Chances are, sqlite is going to do it better.
I know loads of android apps use sqlite for storage. I’ve also managed to open quite a few programmes “proprietary” file format in sqlite.

When metrics become targets they fail to be metrics any more

Tests is the industry name for the automated paging when production breaks

It’s the SATA cable

When learning c++ you hate c++. Then suddenly you get it, and love c++. Then you learn more c++, and you end up merely liking c++

Oh man, spoilable items? Spoilable agriculture research packs?
That’s pretty intense

No idea. Probably cause it’s a bit gate-keepy in the way I say “any tuner worth their salt” as if it’s the only way to achieve good results.
I haven’t met a tuner that uses anything other than forks. Maybe that’s because all the pianos I’ve worked with have been in good condition, so haven’t needed drastic measures applied. As I haven’t met a tuner that uses anything else, I can’t say if they are better/faster/whatever. I just assumed it’s the industry standard, like how orchestras tune by ear

I haven’t, but I’ve had many grand and baby grand pianos tuned after being moved onto stage, and a guy comes in and does it by ear.
I asked them why they didn’t have a stroboscopic tuner or something, and they’ve always found it easier with a couple forks and by ear

Im 99% sure any piano tuner worth their salt tunes by ear

If you pay for your VPN using crypto, then they can’t tie it to your name, when they’re reselling the traffic it’s harder to tie it to an identity

Surely that only works if you have personally mined the crypto yourself.
And if you only use that wallet for paying for the same VPN service.
Crypto isn’t anonymous, the ledger of all transactions (IE the Blockchain) can be read by anyone.

Training will never stop, tho.
New models will keep coming out, datasets and parameters are going to change.

Maybe the amount of shoplifting hasn’t changed that much, but reporting and detection of it is better?
